Joseph Holt city-centre pub just off Deansgate, with a wood-panelled bar, a rooftop terrace and an upstairs room hosting Manchester's longest-running free comedy night on Wednesdays. Now run by the team behind That Burger Place, so the smash burger menu sits alongside Holt's cask ales. Sky Sports and TNT Sports on the screens.
