Welcome Inn Manchester

You'll find yourself in a proper neighbourhood pub that's refreshingly free of the gimmicks you'd expect. The Welcome Inn sits on Robert Hall Street, the sort of place where regulars actually know the bar staff and the crowd's there for conversation, not Instagram moments. It's run by JW Lees, the Manchester brewery that's been doing this since 1828, so you know the ale selection is taken seriously. The ratings speak for themselves—locals clearly rate it, and there's a reason it's consistently packed without trying too hard.
