Predictably busy on a Saturday night, with a DJ right in front of the bar and loud speakers (and I mean loud - actually it was minging) everywhere - except at the top of the stairs down to the toilets. Which is where I drank my half of Hydes Lowry, a 4.7% modern pale in Very Good condition (£4.90/pint). This would be worth coming back to on a weekday afternoon, when it might be quieter.

Was a GBG 2023 entry - not sure about 2024. Bit a soulless identikit, modern Hydes house, that leaves little in the memory. Central Bar with columns with shelves leading to booth seating around the windows.
Hydes Lowry a rather forgettable pint but once we managed to get a booth, we had a fine time.
Not sure I would go out my way again, with Manchester having so many choices for the beer tourist.

Hydes pub with a smacked-around L shaped interior and grubby-by-design baccy-stain painted walls. Some nice touches in the woodwork and tiling but ultimately it's a bit soulless sub-hipster (a 2014 opener, which explains why). Six cask with four Hydes on, my Hopster was a poor soapy brew but served very well (NBSS 3.5). GBG’23 listed – I can see why but I wouldn’t recommend it as an experience.
