Quick info
About Town Hall Tavern Manchester
On Tib Lane in Manchester, Town Hall Tavern is a pub tucked among the alleyways, and it can be a challenge to find on a first visit. The menu runs to pies named Fungi Chicken pie and Moo & Blue, served with a choice of mash or chips, mushy peas, and gravy, alongside a steak & ale pie, bruschetta, onion rings, and fish & chips. At the bar, real ales sit on draft alongside Guinness and a selection of ciders. Live music and pub theatre feature on the schedule from time to time. Service is walk-in, with no need to book ahead. Dogs are welcome on site.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the pies, with the Fungi Chicken pie and the Moo & Blue served with mushy peas, chips and gravy singled out as delicious, and a meat-free pie with mash also getting a mention. Close behind are the steak and ale pie, the bruschetta, the onion rings and the fish and chips, with several reviewers calling the food nice pub food with good presentation. The drinks draw their own praise, including a variety of ciders, real ales on draft, craft beer, a superb bloody Mary and a well-poured Guinness. Reviewers repeatedly describe the staff as friendly and helpful, and the building as an authentic, traditional pub with a warm atmosphere and plenty of seats inside. One reviewer calls the design unique and another says it suits watching football, while one mentions good music and that dogs are welcome. The only caveat comes from a reviewer who found the pub challenging to locate among the alleyways. Visitors from outside Manchester say they plan to come back, and one lunch diner thanked the bar staff for looking after them.

“Had a great experience yesterday. Popped in for lunch and would definitely recommend the Pies that are on offer. I had Fungi Chicken pie with mushy peas, chips and gravy which was delicious. My wife had the Moo & Blue with mash potatoes mushy peas and gravy also very tasty. Well worth it. Many thanks to Naomi & Libby at the bar, they really looked after us. We will definitely be back”
