Currently no service at the bar. The normal entrance is closed and is used for staff only. You enter and exit the pub via two smaller doors at each side of the building. One way arrows are marked on the floor. You are greeted at the entrance and seated on arrival, and asked to sanitise your hands. We booked a table beforehand, and this is recommended by the pub even if you just want to go in for drinks. If you book they have your details from that, otherwise they take contact details for someone in the party once you have been seated.
A decent selection of cask and keg ales available and the food we had, although not the cheapest, was delicious and very filling. This is a popular spot even during current strange times and was fairly busy both inside and out, especially for a Tuesday afternoon which I don't imagine is peak trading time.

Decent real ale offering, much better than you would expect for a food led pub, and sets it apart from its immediate neighbours. Twelve pumps at the bar split into two banks of six. At the time of my visit on Saturday night Pink by Poynton, South Island Pale by Saltaire, Bear Ass by Beartown, Weetwood by Cheshire Cat and Brunning & Price Bitter. There may have been others that I failed to note. I wasn't overly impressed with the Pink, seemed rather bland with the tart and citrus tastes claimed on the pump clip not detectable. The South Island Pale was pretty nice though, although it did have a strange aroma to it the taste was good. Definitely a pub I would return to (and indeed, this was not my first visit).

A decent pub that is a world away from what is in the immediate vicinity. A large open plan interior on two levels and 12 handpumps dispensing 9 real ales. An outside area by the canal for fair weather drinking.
