11/04/24: Delirium Red or Delorian as Rob calls it! 01/04/24: Delirium Red 30/01/24: met Milo the Kangol/Rhodesian Ridgeback tonight for some play in the bar. Playing bitey face! We sat back and enjoyed Lilley's Mango cider and Green Duck Beer Co: Duck Dastardly (dandelion & burdock) stout! 20/01/24: been here many times in my lifetime. Rock/Belgium beer hub of NQ. Today exceptional service today from Dan. Bar Fringe (can't believe I've not received before) always great for Belgium beers and just spotted Lilly's Cider. Massive contrast but fantastic!

My favourite bar in Manchester. Couple of Belgian ales on draught. Lots more in bottles. Good choice of Cask beers and other continental choices. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Good jukebox (but could do with turning the volume up sometimes)

Small but really lively pub, definitely one for beer drinkers - huge selection of different, mostly Belgian, beers on draft. No Hoegaarden any more though which was a bit disappointing. Decor is eclectic in a good way and there’s so many little bits dotted around the place which catch the eye. Big beer garden out the back which they’ve done really well with the space they have.

Long standing pearl of the Northern Quarter. Excellent selection of real ales plus ciders and foreign beers. Always had a friendly and helpful service. Wife and daughter always feel comfortable drinking here. Martin Meerkat loves this bar.
