| Went in today for a coffee while waiting for a bus and was surprised to see three handpumps on the counter. Spoke to the new owner who took over a month ago who turns out to be a knowledgable real ale supporter, one time cellarman for Tetley's and lover of Robinson's ales. He plans to have one cider, one permanent choice and guest beers including Robbie's seasonal beers on Draught. Also a load of Belgian bottles visible. Early Dylan was playing while I was there which I suppose goes with the beer. Good news if you like this kind of thing as it's the only drink oriented bar at the Bus Station and had gone a long way downhill recently. More info when I visit again for a beer. brucerob - 6 Jan 2012 22:37 |
| Oops - my last remark was about the Horse and Jockey. Not sure how it got here. Please ignore. I use escape when I have a long wait for a bus - a fairly regulasr occurrence with Stagecoach cuts. brucerob - 5 Jun 2009 16:30 |
| Has had a total makeover - both physically and in terms of what they have on offer. Also plans for a microbrewery. Though (or because!) i live in Chorlton I haven't been there in years. Will investigate and report back. brucerob - 5 Jun 2009 16:26 |
| Pretty soul-less and uninspiring. Visited recently when there was a Belgian Beer "festivsl" on. Reasonable selection of bottled beers. No hand pumps / real ales doncaosdelanada - 20 Mar 2008 13:46 |
| Not a bad place. Beer choice ok (not brilliant especially for Chorlton) Decor is cosy, a bit retro - early 90's. They always play their music really loud, so I can't hear who I'm talking to. Could do better Scottie_chorlton - 11 Mar 2008 18:46 |
