Next stop was the Kings Arms on Bloom street. This is a fine looking brick building, and it is criminal what the planners have allowed, by completely surrounding this building by gaudily coloured "modern" crap flats. Whoever allowed this should get a new guide dog.
Another great pub is the Salford Arms The food looked tempting, but I thought I would wait until later.
Back in towards the city we called in at the Mark Addy. For many, many years this has been a favorite of mine, however it has just changed hands, there is no food on, and the beer is terrible. Nothing wrong with the beer as such, except that it has been on for way too long.
Real ale doesn't appreciate sitting around for weeks and weeks. I saddens me to see such a great bar go into decline.
further down John Dalton Street, we called into another bar to get some food. After ordering the pate, I was told that "it will be a while as the pate isn't defrosted yet". Never mind, we will go somewhere else!
The Cheshire Cat was mad busy, with great beer, and the City Arms likewise. A last call into the Market Tavern and the best pint of Tetleys in the North West.
