The Spinning Jenny, Manchester

Surprisingly decent for an airport venue. I seem to recall three or four hand pulls offering some Greene King stuff and Thornbridge Jaipur. They also have a number of taps on the back wall for craft keg stuff which I thought I would try for a change. I can't remember what the full selection was but I had the Thornbridge Tzara and the Affligem Blonde and both were pretty decent. I am sure it is ridiculously expensive but as I was buying a round of drinks for the family (£22 for 6 of us) I didn't see the breakdown and tried not to think about it too much in case it put me off my beer! Didn't eat on my most recent visit but have done in the past, and no complaints there. The queue to get served is often huge and slow moving. But overall a decent offering for an airport location.

New Terminal 2 bar that has the usual range of lagers plus 4 handpumps although there was only 2 in operation.The seating are mainly bench style with a few barrel seats strewn around. It was quite busy on my early Sunday morning visit and tried a pint of Amstel at well over 4 pound.There was also a fair selection (around16) of bottles of real ale on show.
