Pi (altrincham)

Not able to judge the food (they dont sell any) or the atmosphere (as no one else was in) but the bar itself is wonderful. Only small, with an indoor upstairs seating area & a small section out front with tables & chairs (only good for dry days) Theres also a beer garden to the rear apparently (never tried it)? Although limited for bar space the beer selection is good. More often than not there are 3 locally brewed ales on cask & 8 beers on keg, which usually includes a dark one. Altrincham born & bred Iv'e been coming here since it opened in the early 2000s and despite both it sister bars closing (Chorlton & Liverpool) luckily this bar continues to trade. I wish there was a greater choice, but should you be unable to find something unsuitable on cask/keg, they also have a well stocked fridge with numerous craft ales so im confident you'll find something suitable. Not the cheapest of bars, but far from the most expensive. OK, its getting a little tired around the edges now & the downstairs disabled toilets could do with a bit of a face lift, but all that said I still highly recommend this place.

I would say that this is a unique Very fine friendly bar. Great selection of locally produced real Ales and spirits. Plus a fine selection of German beers. Warm friendly knowledgeable staff . I have been in most of the local hostilleries that proport to offer real ale. Pi bar is the most competitive. Definitely put it on your list. It's pet friendly alsi wheelchair friendly. What more is there to say.

Been here before. Three real ales with my first ever pint from Big Trip brewery..a new Manchester brewery I think. Madge says it looks like soup...hope it is unfined..tastes fine! Pi is opposite the Market Hall. Plenty of foreign bottled beers. Second room upstairs. Bring your own food. Point lost for tippy tappy payment. Big brother really does intend to track you Winston Smith.
