The Gorse Hill, Stretford

Not too bad a pub - got better over the past couple of years, still too many youths hanging around outside but the pub is trying hard to improve its image with quiz nights and entertainment, and CCTV outside is stopping some of teh bad behaviour. Wouldn't fancy eating in here but there are Lots of eateries near by if you peckish..... worth giving it a try - and its handy for Man U ( although i prefer the Railway club).

The Railway Club, Stretford

Great pub / club, its run by Jackie and her Dad Tommy. Its a members only club but you can get a member to sign you in for a couple of quid. Staff relatively friendly ( one or two dragons as with all pubs). Good entertainment on a Saturday and Sunday, plus football matches shown in the games room. The Beer is really cheap and quite good - Guiness is the best I've tasted outside of Dublin. The pub does get busy on match days and although it does take a while to get served its worth it for teh atmosphere and the fun. All in all a well run pub . Jackie usually on hand for a good laugh at weekends - Tommy more of a growl but salt of the earth.
