Everyone has their favourite pub, whether it’s your local down the road or somewhere you pop into after an afternoon of city centre shopping. And because we can get quite territorial over our favourite watering holes, it’s sometimes daunting stepping into a new one for the first time.
But Manchester welcomes thousands of visitors each year and, by extension, so do its pubs. Therefore there are plenty of friendly places in the city if you’re looking for somewhere new to try or if you’re visiting from out of town. The only time we’d recommend caution is on match days, depending on which team you support and which part of the city you’re in!
In no particular order, here are some of our favourite pubs to check out – regardless of whether you’re blue or red, or from Oldham or Australia.
