Great boozer, solid lineup and plenty of seating. Love the live music too.
What a brilliant find! It's not often you find Beamish, Murphys and Guinness on tap! I will be back!
Fantastic pub. Extensive back bar with lots of whisky, multiple guest ales and some of the best Guinness you’ll find outside of Ireland (although the head in one of my photos was slightly to big, it was still superb). Sport on the tv, but doesn’t distract from the craic. Staff always quick with their service. Really good.
Living in Salford since 2018. Decided to finally pop in on the walk home. Didn't know it was an Irish pub judging by the whiskey selection behind the bar. Great to see. However I'm knocking 2 stars off because we aren't in Ireland and they aren't serving cask via sparkler. Shocking scenes. Go down to London for that stuff. London prices too.
Lovely traditional pub in Salford. Amazing selection of beer from keg cask and bottle. If you’re into belgium beers you’re in luck. Friendly service. Outside seating. A short walk from city centre. Recommended. 🍻 🇧🇪
