A traditional pub with an impressive tiled frontage, name styling and stained glass windows. Inside it is decepively large, being split over three levels. Alongside the bar a short flight of stairs runs to an upper level with more fixed seating at the front, with a mixture of sofa's and bar stools to the rear.
The exact age of the pub is uncertain but the main bar has been part of a pub for many years, while the upper & lower level rooms were added by knocking through into the adjacent building in the 70s.
The pub retains a traditional feel. Sky sports etc are shunned, but there are TVs in all rooms showing news channels with the sound off or sports when on BBC/ITV. The upper room has a dartboard, while a selection of board games, including Monopoly Manchester Edition are available from the bar.
