    Went for pub quiz night on Thursday, and arrived at half 5 to save a table for a quiz that starts at half 7. Waited for two hours, only to be told that the table we had sat on was reserved and that we had to move. No reservation sticker on the table like the others had. Member of staff was rude and told us to 'book a table like everyone else'. Mate, we waited since the pub was empty at half 5, you messed up by forgetting to reserve enough tables, not us. I'll add, we did not refuse to leave at all,merely calmly explained the situation. He then theatened to have us physically removed. Wont be going again and my group has gone every week for the last year. That's about 10 people buying drinks for 4 hours every Thursday that will be directed to a different pub.

    Good place for a beer, again great beer selection which seams to be the same in all the pubs in Manchester. Had some major issues in the toilet as the smell of piss is so strong you stop breathing. Absolutely awful and is the reason for the 3 stars.

    I am an absolute regular at the flour and flagon and I have had a 10/10 experience every single time! The service here is impeccable and everyone who works here is always so lovely and caring. The food slaps and there weekday deals are always sensational!!! Would recommend to anyone visiting Manchester for the first time. Jess L is an absolutely amazing server, her pints are always top notch and the long islands she makes are second to none. Come here for an absolutely slay night out xx

    I won't be going here again as the bar staff and manager are extremely hostile

    Had a great night, Thursday quiz night. Honestly couldn’t hardly hear the questions, but we still did good, answering most of them. The reward for winning is £300, however I didn’t realise that means you must only win the bonus question to then be able to draw a key out of a bag and hope it unlocks the box of cash. Basically, winning the money is based on luck, not knowledge. Maybe I’m just a sore loser !! Still a very good night. Desperados are £2 for students. They do run out of alcohol by 10pm though, so watch out. Also, all the staff are hung over, karaoke was supposed to start at 9pm, it is now 10pm and nothings going on. The staff don’t care, and drinks are super expensive unless you get a deal/student discount.

  • 5/5 Phoebe W. 1 year ago on Google
    Came in for a couple of drinks after work. Luke was amazing. Gave good drink suggestions and cracked some jokes with us. Served us with a smile and overall made our experience all the more enjoyable.

  • 5/5 Rebekah F. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible spot to grab some food and a cheeky bevvy before gigs. Or even not before gigs. Up to you. We were served by Luke who's got the best knowledge on the best drinks behind his bar, so helpful and incredibly charismatic. The grub was fandabidozy too. This place would get more than 5 stars if it were an option. You go glen coco.

  • 5/5 Lily M. 2 years ago on Google
    Been here a few times but came yesterday with a group of friends and the atmosphere was brill as usual and staff were great and very attentive. Brandon especially was really welcoming and made us all feel so well looked after and was just all around amazing, really made our night!

  • 5/5 Ross S. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome place, especially the Thursday nights quizzioke. Been regulars for years and The DJ quiz master is one of the best around, such a great guy and makes us laugh everytime. The karaoke afterwards too is great and it gets so busy and popular it feels like your own gigs going on. Can't rate this night enough for anyone.

  • 5/5 Doug P. 1 year ago on Google
    Dougie P reviews back at it again. Flour and flagon is the perfect hub for a personal pub experience. There is plenty of variety with open mic nights and karaoke. Great place would rate 5 Carlings out of 5.

  • 5/5 Caitlin M. 2 years ago on Google
    Me and some of my friends went here for the first time on Saturday. We met an absolutely lovely gentleman working there, his name was Brandon as I recall. Amazing service from him and honestly couldn't find better service anywhere else! Highly recommend coming here as was an amazing night overall but Brandon topped it!!! :)

  • 5/5 Harry Li (. 2 years ago on Google
    The karaoke was amazing, I have asked some songs that was not in the list and he was happy to download the song and let me sing Infront of my friends. Quizmaster Flash he called himself was friendly and had a great laugh with me and my friends while his assistant Alex was cheering when I was singing songs when I was nervous, which I am very grateful for. Food was great as it was quick, and not expected it to be fast, sadly I couldn't take any images of the food because the food was so good 🙃, worth a visit for a cheap, friendly cheer environment.

  • 5/5 Hazza P. 2 years ago on Google
    I had a wonderful experience at the Flour and Flagon. The food arrived very quickly and Quiz Master Flash is super friendly and made great quizes on a Thursday night. I would highly recommend going on a Thursday night for the quiz and the karaoke.

  • 5/5 Stef A. 2 years ago on Google
    I had a very nice experience here! The staff are very friendly and the food is delicious and affordable 😁

  • 5/5 Emily B. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a pub fairly local to me. Pints are reasonable in price, my servers have only ever been lovely. Recently was served by Rahim who went and changed a barrel instantly for me when it ran out and thought I'd write a review cause of it. Great place, I'd recommend especially if there's an open mic or an event on

  • 5/5 Chasity S. 2 years ago on Google
    Strongbow cider just gained a new fan. Got to this place around 3:30 on a Tuesday and it’s pretty empty, but that’s ok because we enjoyed the drink and relaxation.

  • 5/5 Brandon R. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Ian O. 4 months ago on Google
    Had a lot of fun the other night, great prices for students. The bartender Sharla was especially friendly!

  • 4/5 George B. 4 months ago on Google
    Nice cheap food and drink, nice atmosphere. Staff seem overworked and my food was missing an item but it was hard to get someone's attention cause they're too busy.

  • 3/5 alex l. 7 months ago on Google
    Pints were slightly expensive (£6.50 for moretti which is still kinda average nowadays) but cocktails seemed reasonably priced. They have a room where bands play sometimes

  • 5/5 Tomo R. 7 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Arthur P. 9 months ago on Google
    Went for karaoke, Joey was great banter, very good looking, even swindled a free Don Julio on ice with lime out of that legend.

  • 5/5 Nathan M. 11 months ago on Google
    Really great service! Friendly staff, particularly Luke who took care of us this afternoon. Update: I lost my debit card, so I phoned the pub, went back and collected it. And it was Luke who picked up my card and gave it back to me! Absolute legend, cheers again!!

  • 4/5 Kim B. 10 months ago on Google
    Decent pub with friendly service. I've never eaten here, but the menu looks pretty varied. Pool and darts available to play and a decent range of music on rotation. Good pint of Stella 👌🏼

  • 5/5 Nathan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great bar with a great atmosphere! I was greeted by Tommy as I walked in and served in turn and within a few minutes. Tommy and I exchanged a few laughs which would definitely encourage me to return and bring more of my mates in next time. Highly recommend!

    Throughly enjoyed popping in here over the weekend. Big shout out to Luke, friendly and attentive service, it’s so nice to be served by someone who is clearly passionate about their job! Keep up the amazing work Luke, you’re truly a shining star 🌟

  • 4/5 Mathieu C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great selection of beer, rock music, billiards and darts. The decor is nice with plenty of comfortable seating. (Original) Grand choix de bières, musique rock, billard et fléchettes. La déco est bien sympa avec plein de fauteuils confortables.

  • 5/5 Lucy F. 5 years ago on Google
    Great food

  • 4/5 Clare N. 5 years ago on Google
    I often come here for food and end up staying for the beer. They have a good selection and keep it well. It gets busy in the evenings as it's a very popular pub for students. Food is decent portions and prices, and the puddings are tasty. Has a small outside seating area for smoking that fills up fast even when cold outside.

  • 5/5 James S. 5 years ago on Google
    Great atmosphere and choice of ales. Also food is good quality and at a great price, especially on offers for 2 people. Quizzes are also top notch and you get a £40 bar tab if you win!

  • 5/5 Andy M. 5 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 R. S. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing place.

  • 5/5 Pablo de Gracia S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is a charming pub-like place, although you can go to dinner or eat as if it were a bar. It is very well priced and the food is very good. They make some wings and some juicy and tasty hamburgers. It is very close to the University. It has a terrace with several tables in addition to those inside. The treatment of the staff is very nice. They have table service, although it is ordered at the bar. Highly recommended. (Original) Es un sitio con encanto tipo pub, aunque puedes ir a cenar o comer como si fuera un bar. Está muy bien de precio y la comida está muy buena. Hacen unas alitas y unas hamburguesas jugosas y sabrosas. Está muy cerca de la Universidad. Tiene terraza con varias mesas además de las del interior. El trato del personal es muy agradable. Tienen servicio de mesa, aunque se pide en barra. Muy recomendable.

  • 5/5 Oliver A. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice pub, went two days in a row and they had different real ales on.

  • 5/5 Sophie R. 5 years ago on Google
    Came to manc for one night and had a quality night in this pub. Karaoke was on so of course I joined in. Chris was one of the bartenders that day and what a legend he is, made me night better.

  • 1/5 martin c. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice place, definitely more of a pub than nightclub as in the description. Was having a pleasant evening until I tried to return one of the two pints of Punk IPA I was served as it was cloudy and obviously the end of the barrel, barman was down right rude and obnoxious refusing to change it. I certainly wont be going back and would suggest trying somewhere else.

  • 3/5 MCJS 4 years ago on Google
    Been coming in for many years, decent pub, fair amount of screens for sport. Toilets aren’t the best & being charged £5.10 for a pint of Innis & Gun, probably the most expensive pint in Manchester, for a pub that isn’t in the centre, isn’t acceptable.

  • 5/5 Lee H. 4 years ago on Google
    Love it in here as my regular beer is always fresh and decent prices had the wing it Monday a few times and pie and a drink wendsday foods nice i would recommend it to anyone

  • 5/5 Freya L. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Edward H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place.. Great atmosphere.. I got served by Rachel on the club night and she was very friendly... went back the next day and had some food. The chef (I think his name was Frankie) came out to talk me through allergens. The food was great and very tasty!

  • 3/5 Xi C. 5 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Jamie M. 5 years ago on Google
    Cosy, classic pub with a reasonable menu. The burger I had could or had a better quality meat but I can't complain to much as the prices were quite reasonable. The variety of beer is as to be expected from a city centre pub.
