The Salmon Of Knowledge, Salford

A new build pub right next door to the BBC. It's been done out very nicely in an industrial kind of way. The bar is all wood panelled and looks good. A real mix of seating with high stools & tables, some booths, some sofas etc. There's also a large patio area outside. There's a table football game, a pinball machine at a rip off £1 per game and a massive TV screen. 8 handpumps on the bar with 2 Thwaites beers doubled up and 4 guest ales. I went for a pint of Brightside Odin which was in good nick. It cost £3.15, but the other guests were all more expensive. I liked it in here and the patio will be great in Summer. There's lots of camera crews around the area, so star spotting is a decent pastime.
