    Great sports bar and Manchester United fan bar. Drinks are decent and they are reasonably priced. Decor is standard sports bar. Bar staff cope well with the demand and are efficient.

    You have to pay For entry, strictly Unite fans only. No half - half scarfs fans will be let in. Great atmosphere before the games with singing fans in far corner.

    As a Manchester United fan, you have to visit here at least once. Great on a match-day but naturally can get packed very quickly. You'll of course pay slightly more per pint on average as a result. Though I would still recommend highly.

    Amazing atmosphere in this pub, 1 pound entrance fee that grants you access after the game as well. They sell big 1 liter beer as well as regular sized and canned beers outside

    Great atmosphere here before a match

  • 5/5 Anne H. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved this place on my 1st ever visit to see the team I've followed for over 50 years, the staff and customers were really friendly and welcoming to us Suffolk visitors. Thank you all for helping me have a brilliant day made even better by us beating Charlton. Xx

  • 4/5 tosh t. 1 year ago on Google
    Bit disappointed that there was a £1 charge to get in, clearly cashing in on the rugby league crowd. Once inside service was very good, plenty of paying punters which makes the pound entry extremely disappointing.

  • 1/5 Anthony L. 1 year ago on Google
    £1 in the place, no beer on draft everything only cans,,don't bother go to spoons ,,

  • 4/5 Ian I. 2 years ago on Google
    As you would expect a pub on match night only 1.00 entrance and slightly higher price for a drink gets packed quickly pleasant staff

  • 5/5 AngelWonderland 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Gary T. 2 years ago on Google
    Lively on match day. Cheap drinks. Not for the faint hearted as it does get a bit rowdy.

  • 3/5 Northern M. 2 years ago on Google
    Proper football boozer just 200m from the famous old Trafford home of man utd. Great place for an after the game drink. Very loud, very busy, stockiest floors ever! Love it !

  • 5/5 Donna W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for a drink, though don't expect a a seat as there's only a few of them. Plenty of tables though!

  • 1/5 Hayden W. 5 months ago on Google • 1 review
    So I walked into the pub by my self ordered a pint started to drink the pint amicably with no problems then a rather ‘large’ woman so called manager/owner came up to me and said finish your pint and get out. I asked why and they said no away fans aloud in pub even though I wasn’t even at the game or had any shifts/colours on that represents my team! Then all of a sudden I have a bouncer at the front of me and a bouncer standing behind me. The bouncer at the front told me to get out NOW so he made me force my pint down. Then as I left everyone laughed. That is what you call pure descrimination I would avoid this bar at all costs unless you want to be treat like a dog because there team was loosing 3-0 🤣 shocking
