Y Not in Urmston

Ah, Y Not in Manchester – it's one of those hidden gems that really shines for events like birthdays or board game nights, where the team pulls out all the stops to make it memorable. From what folks have shared, Claire and the bar staff are just fantastic, handling everything with a warm, efficient touch that leaves you feeling well looked after. The drinks selection is spot on too, with classics like Guinness done just right, and that terrace out front is a proper sun trap, ideal for a relaxed chat on a good day. On the flip side, though, there have been a few grumbles about noise from live acts spilling out, which might not suit everyone, especially if you're hoping for a peaceful pint. Plus, with it only being open a handful of evenings, it's worth planning ahead so you don't turn up to a closed door. Overall, it's got that community vibe going for it, but like any spot, it's not perfect – still, I'd say it's worth a visit if you're up for a bit of fun in Urmston.
