Smiley Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 It's certainly a long bar. The whole seating thing is a bit odd and I find it thinks more of itself than necessary. But then that is so Spinningfields Certainly full of pretentious wannabes, gangsters & footballers wife types! At £27 a round for 4 of us - it's wasn't for the feint-hearted! Most seating was reserved but empty - trying to create exclusivity??? Enjoyed the Oast House - much more spit, sawdust, great entertainment (even though one of the guitarists was my mrs ex!) - lot of James, Oasis, Roses, soul, blues, etc, beltin' atmosphere - folk dancing on tables, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 It's caused £400,000 worth, that Bradshawgate fire, apparently.  Of improvements.  Why am I thumbing 'Post'? Rereading that has filled me with melancholy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghana White Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yeah salford arms has kept some of its old clientele. Bit of a red pub which is a downer. Egerton arms has the most characters round there and some terrible united stuff on the walls. Further down chapel street I've no idea how the rovers return is still open, never see anyone in there.

Breightmet Boy Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I'll be booking again for next year at Rivvie Barn, £39.50p very well spent and worth every penny. £3.90 for San Miguel though !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan.Kerr Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Called in the Salford Arms a good few weeks ago. They had live music on. A folky band who took ages to tune up, then a Chinese woman playing a eukale, ukale banjo, who was quite good, in a strange sort of way. They had a few decent beers on and foreign barstaff. A very entertaining evening. I think the Rovers shall Return no more, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledwhite2 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 only until 3am Christ  Where did you visit?  I was at the horniman, hays galleria (right next to hms Belfast) then went to a bar in monument, scarpered at 10pm so didn't see too much debauchery / drunkenness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted December 21, 2014 Moderators Share Posted December 21, 2014 Rovers is still open, nearly went in after work Friday, but didn't  Salford arms, was an odd place last time I went in, think the Chinese from next door were running it and the decor was shocking, but the ale was cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oggybwfc Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Upstairs of Vogue were the offices of The Kieley's I used to go every Friday to pick up a works cheque. The receptionist (fucking Huge) once said too me "I love it when I see you"   "Really?" "Yes it means IT"s time too go home"   Fucking DMB bitch.
