The Crafty Pig

First visit, on a rainy day. Had tea. Spotted the vegan friendly menu and came back on the same day for dinner! Food took far too long to order and arrive but that is my only complaint. There was a collection box on the counter for MNDA. THANK YOU! Venue was large and spacious with comfy chairs and great window views. Been back many times. Consistently good. New manager from Motherwell a STAR!

This was a fantastic pub to dine in at, with a throwback design of the tables mainly being separated by wooden pillars! The images on the wall and the netting also contribute to this, the seating is comfortable and cleanliness had been enforced. I had a quality beef taco, served by friendly staff and the cider is up to scratch too!

I remember this place when it was Joe's Bar now its crafty pig and have to say its been done up well I specially like the TV sports booths the place is big and open . The staff are friendly enough but have to say they do not go out of their way . I would love to have seen . Hello how are you today or have you been hear before / or about the weather / where you off to today etc . you are more likely to get returning customers if you have great bar staff who have a smile and chat it was not overly busy when I was in the staff was not rushed off their feet . That said it's a nice place to have a drink I noticed some wacky beer taps . I decided to order Cluck it up loaded Sub At 9 pound and it comes with fries think the price is a bit steep. More round the 7 pound mark when it arrived I have to say it was disappointing it was very fatty inside not much within the way of chicken so I left it don't think I will be ordering food again. But to pop in for a drink . Its in a good location at the bottom of Oldham street manchester right on top of the shops and the bus stops are right outside. being town you are likely to get some characters hanging around at night so good to know security and the police are on hand . Would I recommend this place yes . As it OK but no more than that
