About This Pub

Ah, The Railway in Sale is one of those cosy spots that just draws you in with its traditional charm and community feel. From what I've heard from folks who've been, the staff are genuinely lovely, always up for a natter and making sure you're looked after, which really sets the tone for a great evening. The beers from Robinsons are spot on, and with regular live music like their Northern Soul nights and Jazz evenings, plus poker games midweek, there's plenty to keep things interesting without it feeling overwhelming. It's ideally placed near the canal for a quick stroll before or after, and the beer garden's a nice touch on a sunny day. On the flip side, it only kicks off in the afternoon most days, so if you're an early bird, you might have to find somewhere else to start your day. And while it's fabulous for drinks and entertainment, it doesn't seem to have much in the way of food options, which could be a shame if you're after a bite. All in all, it's a solid choice for a laid-back get-together with friends, especially if you're into music or catching the match – just go with the flow and you'll have a cracking time.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are absolute gems, always friendly and welcoming, making every visit feel like catching up with old mates.
  • They've got a cracking selection of Robinsons beers that hit the spot every time – perfect for a proper pint.
  • Live music nights, like Northern Soul and Jazz, bring a real lively buzz to the place and keep things entertaining.
  • It's brilliant for watching live sports on the big screens, creating that electric atmosphere when the game's on.
  • The location's spot on, just a stone's throw from the canal and Sale metrolink station, with a beer garden for a bit of fresh air.
Cons
  • It doesn't open until the afternoon on most days, which might leave you hanging if you're after an early tipple.
  • Things can get a tad crowded during events like music nights or sports matches, so you might struggle for space.
  • There's not much on offer for food, so if you're looking for a full meal with your drink, you could be disappointed.
