The Lass O'Gowrie, Manchester

Lovely pub, with considerably more ale than my last visit. My colleague and I enjoyed several delightful pints of Betty's Best (priced at a competitive �2.40 a pint) and played Pacman deep into the night. Rightly a Manchester icon and, along with the Marble and Grey Horse, a must visit in Manchester.

The Seven Oaks, Manchester

Nice little boozer, decent atmosphere and - here's the big suprise; it's open til 6:30am most nights! Extraordinary!

Mr Thomas' Chop House, Manchester

Overrated and cramped from a quaffers perspective, although the outdoor area is pleasant enough. More a restaurant in pub's clothing...

Mother Macs, Manchester

Like walking into an episode of Life on Mars. Worth a curio visit mind!

The Circus Tavern, Manchester

Funny little gaff, but a definate original. Choice a little limited mind.

The Castle Hotel, Manchester

A bit tatty, although not without charm...

The Lass O'Gowrie, Manchester

Still does not disappoint. A grand chicken, bacon and musroom pie for lunch and bags of choice on the pumps. Lots on too by the look of it including music, comedy nights and an intriging computer club. Add in some very ecclectic art from Karen McBride and vintage arcade machines and we have a winner. Confident, classic and not stuffy with a nice mix of punters! Nice....

The Briton's Protection Hotel, Castlefield

Actually, it's a Punch Taverns leasehold so not a freehouse at all - sorry to disappoint.

The Lass O'Gowrie, Manchester

This pub really is up there with the finest in Manchester. A Victorian gem from Manchester's past, the Lass stands nearly alone in a sea of faceless, charcterless style bars and cheap offer-led drinking factories that now predominate in the city. My fave bits include an amazing array of ales (up to 10 at any one time), cosy atmosphere of the non-smoking snug, nice whiskies, lovely staff (don't know how it was a few years ago, but they look after me when I go in), board games and lots of sport on the big screen. Oh and the punters are a nice crowd with no chavs in sight!
