About This Pub
Ah, BrewDog Manchester – it's one of those places that really gets the heart of what makes a great pub tick. I've got to say, the beer selection is top-notch; with 21 taps pouring out everything from IPAs to sours, it's a haven for anyone who loves exploring new brews, and they even let you try before you buy, which is a nice touch. Pair that with their epic food menu – think hand-smashed burgers, flavour-packed wings, and even vegan options – and you've got a solid meal to go with your pint. The staff are absolute gems too, always polite and accommodating, like when they squeezed in a group for wing Wednesdays without batting an eye. The atmosphere is buzzing, especially with DJs spinning tunes or big screens for the footie, making it feel lively without being overwhelming. But, let's be honest, it's not all perfect; the prices are a tad on the high side for Manchester, which might sting if you're on a budget, and there have been a few slip-ups with service, such as drinks not making it to the table as promised. Still, with its central location and overall welcoming vibe, it's a go-to for a good night out – just keep an eye on those little niggles and plan ahead for peak times, and you'll have a whale of a time.

Recent Reviews
Small Brewdog pub in busy area. Usual industrial grunge decor. Standard Dog beers. DJ on when I visited. Decent food and beer but at very steep price for the area. Lost a star for promising to deliver my beer to table and it never came.
Brew Dog rarely disappoints. The live act playing the most eclectic 90's and 2000's pop hits were an absolute treat. Come for the expansive selection of beers on tap. Stay because you've eaten too much and can't get out of your plush seating.
The classic "Patriot" burger is good.
Went in for wing Wednesdays. Wasn’t aware we had to book, but the staff were really accommodating, and very polite.
We sat down to enjoy the food and it was great. Good value for money. Beer was obviously lovely. Overall great experience
(Bar the flickering light at our table)
The server Alexandra was fantastic.
Great place, wonderful staff. During lunch hours it’s quite free. There’s a possibility to order and pay directly from your phone. The beer and food were great. I enjoyed my lunch there.
Highly recommend the “Dragon spice” wings
10/10 large wings and crispy battered
Amazing place for a pint
Cozy and spacious
They projected a big screen for football game, no sound on the football game but background music still hit the vibe!
Nice bartender and you can try the beer before you buy it
