Will Larter left this review about The Cellar

This misleadingly named street level bar has the sort of full length windows that open right back to allow the street to invade the room in summer time. The cellar itself, whose stairs yawn invitingly from just inside the front door, is for music events or is available for private hire. The bar has four hand pumps and I soon found myself engaged in enthusiastic conversation about local breweries and their beers. The four available at the time of my visit came from local-ish Happy Valley, less local First Chop of Salford, and distinctly foreign Fyne and Tempest from north of Hadrian's Wall. I only had time for a half but it was probably my beer of the day, despite being not really to my taste. On the local real ale circuit I would say this is a must visit.

Despite the name the cellar part of this bar is a live music venue in use at weekends and some weekdays. The main bar is at street level and is a fairly basic affair with minimalist decor and an eclectic mix of tables, chairs, sofa's etc. Three cask ales available which are all changing guests. I had a pint of Three Tuns 1642 which was in good nick. They offer a small CAMRA discount as well, which I failed to notice until after I'd bought the beer. It's a pleasant little place, or at least it was early on a Sunday evening. They have limited food service times, but when a group of three walked in and asked if they were doing food the barmaid said no and then offered to make them a sandwich, which she did. A nice touch. It's new to the CAMRA GBG 2013 and quite rightly so. It's good to see a new outlet for good cask ale in the part of town and is handily placed between Old Harkers and The Mill Hotel.
