Just a stones throw from Oxford Street it started life as a Victorian canal-side warehouse, then became an umbrella factory, then a dry-cleaning business and now a large and stylish bar with lots of cubby holes and a big patio outside that looks out onto the Manchester-Rochdale Canal.

It has a large menu offering standard pub food like fish and chips, steak, pies and burgers. Drinks are cask ales, lagers, wines & spirits and cocktails with non-alcoholic options. Prices are typical city centre.

Staff are friendly and chilled.
