The good news is that now it’s time for that equally pleasurable stint in a boozer - with a pint of two in front of a crackling fire. We’ve scoured the region for the best cosy pubs that are absolutely ideal for the end of an autumn walk or day out. Not that you need an excuse, this lot are just great to visit.
Some of these are in Manchester while others stretch further around Greater Manchester. There’s obviously more - just ask CAMRA - but here’s our favourites.
