About The Crafty Pig, Manchester

The Crafty Pig is a pub in Manchester at 4 Oldham St, with screens throughout the building, including in some of the booths, that show football and F1. The bottomless brunch pairs with cocktails that are topped up through the session, so the drinks keep coming for as long as the brunch runs. Beyond brunch, the drinks list covers beers, ciders and cocktails. The kitchen turns out pizzas and chicken wings, and a wings deal is on offer. Service is at the table, and guests order by scanning a QR code or through an app.

Customer Review Summary

Bottomless brunch is what reviewers raise most, with cocktails described as properly made and the bar staff quick to keep glasses full and ask about the next round. Pizzas come next, with one reviewer who expected little saying they really are good, and others mention a sharer, a hoisin dish and a deal on chicken wings, all described as good value. Screens throughout, including in the booths, make it a favourite for football and F1, and ordering through the app or by scanning a QR code at the table kept things moving even on a very busy match day. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and attentive. The caveats are a few: one reviewer finds the same match on every television and suggests switching some to music, and another notes it gets quite busy at peak times. One reviewer was served pancakes dusted in what tasted like curry powder alongside ice cream and popcorn, and says staff insisted the chefs knew their recipes, followed by a long wait. A group of ten for a 21st birthday was fitted in easily on a quiet Wednesday.

    “A great little pub, not a football fan, so I don't appreciate the t.v.s on streaming the same thing, maybe change some to music channels? Service was very good, staff were attentive. The food was very good, and a great selection of drinks. We had a sharer and a hoisin dish, all were good and good value. Table service too, and you can order from the table by scanning the QR 👍🏻”

    “Martin was amazing! Even when we were half way through our drinks he would ask us what our next drink was! Definitely coming back! He’s a credit to the company! Thanks so much !!”
  • Peter Dickinson
    “Had such a great time at Crafty Pig for their bottomless brunch! The food and drinks were spot on, and the whole vibe was really fun and relaxed. What made it even better was the service — super friendly, attentive, and made sure our glasses were never empty. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a good brunch spot! Think the manager said her name was shelley”
  • Stephen Foy
    “Been Crafty Pig twice for Virgin Experience days recently. Boss. Staff are polite, helpful and friendly. The pizzas are amazing (to be honest, was not expecting much but they really are good pizzas). Various range of drinks to chose from, the other half was also happy with her food and drinks. They have screens all over the place, some in the booths too. Belting place to watch the sports with friends and family. Recommend you popping in here if you get the chance”
  • Christine Birch
    “Excellent venue to watch football match. It was very busy in there as big game (Man U v Liverpool). Easy to order food and drink through app and never waited long which was great as they were so busy. The staff were all amazing and didn’t stop. First time here and will definitely return.”
