The Star and Garter

About this Venue

The Star & Garter is an old fashioned Manchester bar situated just over the road from the Piccadilly station taxi rank. Dark mahogony barstools and a faded green pool table give this venue a great touch of character that is often non-existent in present day bars. This is a proper 'Old Man's Pub' read moreThe Star & Garter is an old fashioned Manchester bar situated just over the road from the Piccadilly station taxi rank. Dark mahogony barstools and a faded green pool table give this venue a great touch of character that is often non-existent in present day bars.

This is a proper 'Old Man's Pub', the cosy bar centered in the middle of the downstairs which also includes a pool table, plenty of seating and a few sit-down arcade machines that are a great way to pass the time with a friend. Upstairs is the gig room; a great Manchester music venue which hosts a vast array of different bands throughout the week. Door charges vary so do your research before heading up the stairs. Tongue-in-cheek posters on the wall lamenting the 'customer is always right' paints the correct picture for this cheeky example of a traditionally British pub.

If you're looking for things to do in Manchester before your train leaves or if you want a real taste of the North then stop by at The Star & Garter next time you're around the area.

An iconic building behind Piccadilly Railway station, known around the world for its infamous Smith's and Morrissey night on the first week of the month. Popular with all age groups and have themed nights throughout the week as well as bands performing. Hasn't succumbed to the glitzy superpub status read moreAn iconic building behind Piccadilly Railway station, known around the world for its infamous Smith's and Morrissey night on the first week of the month. Popular with all age groups and have themed nights throughout the week as well as bands performing. Hasn't succumbed to the glitzy superpub status, it's your typical back street pub with all the original fixtures and fittings, how a true pub should be. Pool table (seen better days) fruit machine, pulled pints, crisps and an atmosphere....

A lovely friendly venue with a great live music scene.
