The Mannings

You'll find The Mannings tucked right on Cornhill, Ipswich's most characterful street, where it slots in perfectly amongst the independent shops and older architecture. It's the kind of place where locals actually drink—no theme park nonsense, just a solid neighbourhood pub that takes its beer seriously. The Craft Union group knows what they're doing, and this feels like a proper watering hole rather than a corporate exercise, with enough going on to draw people in without trying too hard.
