The Stokers Arms, Manchester

A few years ago when a mate of mine lived up the road this was an O'Neils, so we avoided it like the plague. It now sounds like it should be a traditional pub, but it's just one huge room with canteen style long tables. All the walls are bare brick with little decoration on them. In fact there's very little of note throughout the pub. A good range of ales during my visit with 4 being available from the 5 handpumps. My pint of Siren Craft Half Mast was in good nick and the girls who came and sat on the next table to me were very attractive. So not a lost cause by any means, but I suspect it's rammed with teenies later on.

When i visted this pub it was called Times Sq, i presume Sq stood for square but they could'nt be bothered to add the uare to the name. Once inside there was a largish room that was full of tat and it had lots of different types of seating,the pub was very quiet on my Saturday dinner visit making me think this was more of an evening pub. I was surprised to see one real ale on the bar this was Bass and this was a decent enough drink. Not really my sort of pub but it had to be done. Pub visited 4/4/1993
