    Great venue with live music on Friday and Saturday nights. The staff are extremely friendly and the alcohol is reasonably priced. Overall, this is an amazing gem of a pub.

    I visited this place with my husband Nek on Saturday for the first time and we thoroughly enjoyed the gig of the “White tygers” that was organised. Prices were very reasonable too. We really enjoyed the amazing atmosphere and welcoming environment. We will certainly be visiting more often. One thing to consider in the sound check of future groups is to lower slightly the volume, as I felt it was too loud on Saturday, and that would lowering it would make acoustics of the gig even better. Keep up with the good work guys! See you soon!

    Total dump. The place is falling apart! Looks like it will be closed down soon, if not it should be. Just one customer when I went in. No music, no food and not an enjoyable place at all. Wet seats too. Overpriced beers, nearly £5 for a pint of standard ale. Lady behind the bar was pleasant enough though. Looks like the live music (if there still is any) is the only thing keeping it going. Steer clear otherwise.

    If you're looking for posh then forget it. But if you want a music pub with great beers and a great crowd then OMT is a local legend 👍

    Good selection of drinks. Regularly have live bands, usually rock music. Friendly bar staff. Reasonable prices, low for Altrincham. Tables outside. No food but plenty of takeaways across the road.

    Great pint of zenith IPA.

  • 3/5 Alan D. 2 years ago on Google
    It's a live music venue which current owners are working hard to improve after challenges of covid over recent years. Range of real ales but I feel the bar could carry a greater range of bottles / cans and only has one a/f beer which was Heineken zero - no IPA or similar or Punk A/F

  • 5/5 Antony O. 1 year ago on Google
