  “Great spot in Bolton! They serve their own locally brewed beers, plus they’ve got a pool table and darts. We just stopped by for drinks, so I can't comment on the food, but the overall vibe and brews were top-notch.”

  “Love this bar in central Bolton. Good options on tap and in the fridge. Can’t fault the service. We had pizza here last time we went - got the margherita and pepperoni. Margherita was delicious but the pepperoni was insanely spicy - full chopped chillis on there. Even my girlfriend who likes spicy things couldn’t eat more than a slice. So they lose a star there. Would come again!”

  “Nixe staff, chilled atmosphere, small menu of pizza and fries but good variety of toppings for both. A lot of choice when it comes to drinks, especially ales. Comedy gigs advertised on screen for certain dates, will most likely go.”

  “Cracking spot - beer garden (or a sitootery) looking over a pretty little park. Spot on for a beer on the first warm ish day of the year. Friendly bar person. Nice range of cask and taps. Excellent prices”

  “Rely recommend the Northen Monkey Bar !! 🤩🤩🤩 Called in whilst having few drinks in town an rely enjoyed the place, Has a great relaxing atmosphere, a fantastic selection of in house ales & Ipa beer on offer, plus ciders & cocktails for the ladies. Staff are rely friendly an helpful if your unsure in what to choose, with an indepth knowledge of each the ales on draft, even kind enough let you have small try before you get your self a beast of a stin!! - small options are avaible though. Most suprising was the quailty of the food!! They have a modest selection of pizza an loads fries on offer, but that dont detracting from what you get!! Highly recommend the loaded frys with pull pork! These were spot on 👌. Been to several smoke houses an these were equally on par with them place.!! Propper scrummy an went perfect with a proper German pilsner beer. 🍺 Deffently a place visit an will be going back have a few beers again..”

  “Kinda like a modern 'trendy bar' but with good service and brilliant entertainment. High-end traditional style IPA pub, this place hosts many quality independent seasonal, one off craft beers, has a nice mixed clientele and offers great entertainment in the form of cabaret singing, acoustic acts and a two-monthly Stand up Comedy night to rival any comedy roadshow.”

  “How odd. In Manchester I usually find Seven Brothers beers too strong. Here in Bolton the 3.8 pale ale beer is the weak one. The Northern Monkey being 5 and 6%. Good bar opposite Spoons. Listening to Bob Marley. Thus very laid back.”
