Finding this pub was hard work thanks to the area being redeveloped with only one road available for access making the area unrecognisible since my last visit nearly 12 years ago. Different clientele too with the old boys with flat caps and whippets watching the racing now replaced by trendy folk and families added to the run down shabby interior aided by unecessary loud music and the surly miserable uninterested barmaid made this a negative experience. ChrisE loved this pub and would be most disappointed when he reads this review in P&B heaven!!

Quieter than the town centre pubs. We sat in the left hand bar which ChrisE descibes as Nutters Corner.

The pub is found in Salford, Greater Manchester, M3 7DW.

A gem of a pub in Collier Street, hidden away in the back streets, but close to Trinity Way and Manchester Victoria railway station. At one time a wonderful multi-roomed proper boozer now transformed for the younger set and a music centred environment with an extension into the cottage next door.

We have visited this pub 3 times, seen 3 different beers and tried 2 of them.
