Andreas Pyrchalla★★★★★What a warm, welcoming, wonderful place to be! Passionate people (who remember, what you ordered the other day ;-) ), fabulous, fresh food and, most importantly: Genuine draught beer for all tastes. Trailblazer Stout was my fave. Definitely, not maybe worth a visit. Or two. Or three.
Phil Somers★★★★★Pretty quiet, but filled up with football fans, mostly Newcastle United away fans. The Holts - Two Hoots was in perfect condition!! ❤️ Friendly staff, toilets downstairs, lovely looking menu, but the Kitchen was closed 😨 missed out there!! I would visit again for sure!
Richard Evans (TheKingLovely)★★★★★What a brilliant pub! The staff were so welcoming, the beer was reasonable, tasty and did the job (hiccup!), the atmosphere was chilled, warm and friendly and the music was spot on! For someone who has deathly anxiety of being in a big city and WOULDN’T be in Manchester unless I HAD to be, even though it’s actually turned out to be a pretty cool place! The Old Monkey gave me two hours of being in a country pub, rocking fantastic music in the middle of the big city! Thank you so much, guys!
Mark Nicholson★★★★★A well deserved new entry into the 2026 Good Beer Guide judging from the quality of the Holts Bitter I’ve just had.
