A wonderful spot in the heart of the historical Castlefield area alongside the canals with it's warehousea to have a Guinness stout. When the weather is fine, sittng outside is the best way to enjoy the place. Then it can get pretty crowed, but everybody is just having a good time :-)

I'm not usually one for an Irish bar but this is a hidden Gem with decent Guinness, excelent food including bacon and cabbage and good Irish music. My major complaint was the sport on TV. However if you've visited Ireland, you generally find the sport there too

Very friendly staff. Excellent pizza. Bar stool height seating at tables inside. Plenty of outside seating if you are still taking Covid precautions.

Ok so you’ve been to pubs and bars, but have you felt part of it? I missed this little gem so many times when walking past it. If you know, then you know. Bar8 is perfect when it’s quiet, it’s perfect when it’s busy. The live music the atmosphere; just try it. I live 5mins away and it’s my new local. 10/10

The cheesy garlic bread is awesome.

Great pub,great atmosphere,good choice of drinks and very friendly staff

Great bar staff probably under paid for the effort they put in 5 stars for the staff and food

Lovely little place and the best Guinness in town

Absolute dump. Came for a pint (served in plastic cups), left when there was a dog fight

The atmosphere is good, the beer excellent the toilet has a narrow base trough which cause slash back not with just your own and no soap in the dispenser to was that woe away. The seating can be improved but shouldn't as this adds to the atmosphere. Remove the paper leprechauns. Don't get caught short as you could end up finishing off in the dark, lucky I had a light. First and last visit.

Amazing bar in a great area. Yesterday was brilliant, the outside DJ brought an ever better atmosphere to a lively place. The staff were very approachable and friendly. Would definitely recommend and I will be back 100%!

They charged me £9 for 2 lime and sodas! When charging to my card they said the price really quietly so I didn’t hear. Complete rip off for lime cordial and soda water! Definitely not coming back

Great pub showing the GAA over the weekend. Busy for meeting point and drinks before the Saw Doctors gig at Castlefield Bowl. Good location and great outdoor area.

Obscene prices for drinks so got a diet coke instead. Notification came up on my Monzo after that it cost me £4.50!!! 4.50?!?!?! for a diet coke? has the world gone mad?

Fantastic bar man and great setting, would highly recommend.
