Located within Manchester Victoria station to the right of the main entrance towards Corporation Street, this sister pub to the Piccadilly Tap is a conversion from station use that opened to the public in October 2023.

The main bar is a long thin room with the bar opposite as you enter. With the offering of five regular cask beers and one real cider on handpull, more bag-in-box ciders in the fridge and an extensive keg wall behind, the drinker is well catered for. There is an electronic board displaying real-time train departure information high to the left to help the customer to decide whether there is time for another drink. Since opening the pub has become a firm favourite for regulars and visitors alike. There is terrestrial TV with the sound subdued and music is often played.

There is quite a large largely covered outside area behind the bar with bench tables where you can observe passing trams as they leave the station. For toilets use the station toilets 30ms away.
