The friendliest pub - a constant delight. A proper local pub with excellent Holt's beer. Essential whether you're a local or visiting. Update: our lovely local is even better since the arrival of our fantastic new landlords Stacey and Mark.

We popped in for a drink a few weeks ago after a walk and were all welcomed. Think there were about 30 of us spread throughout the pub.

The new management are so friendly and welcoming. Great selection of beer and just a lovely, cosy pub. It's nice to see they have lots going on. The atmosphere is great.

Always loved this place because aswell as excellent beers and good service there has always been a good mix of customers. I don't like places that are skewed towards a particular type or age of customer. Railway ticks that box.

The staff who work here are the nicest staff I’ve ever met. We had trouble with our pizza order and the women working on the bar went and sorted it for us, she was so nice, she needs a raise and a hug she was so nice! Also when we turned up the staff were really accommodating trying to find us a table and were really considerate of the disability access!

Love this spot. Proper traditional pub, serving lots of pints and spirits. Loads of space for sports, lots of nooks for cosy seating. Very friendly

Lovely Pints, in a lovely old building with lots of art and historic Manchester photos on the walls. £4 a pint too!
