The Bridge, Manchester

The Bridge is a long and thin dimly lit pub with high tables in the front window and banquettes and sofas up the left wall faced by the bar counter up the right. Muted Bullseye was on the televisions and there was background music playing during a recent Tuesday evening visit. I didn’t venture upstairs but did note that pool and darts are advertised. Premium keg and Carling were available and I spotted two hand pumps, the Bombardier was off, but TT Landlord was on. The service was polite, but I don’t see myself returning.

This place is now just called The Bridge. It a long narrow pub that is bigger than it looks from outside. Wooden floored throughout with the bar to your right as you enter. Very modern feel to it despite it trying to look older. 3 real ales on the bar with Hopback Summer Lightning, Wainwright's and Hobgob on. Has 2 Athenian helmets above the bar. Why? No idea.
