Who are they?
This 400-year-old pub has had a serious glow-up. New kitchen. Full refit. Open plan pass. Brand new operation. The operator behind one of Manchesters most acclaimed pubs has taken over and has transformed it into a destination gastropub - with serious ambition (Top 50 Gastropubs kinda ambition).
Pub classics with a twist, weekly changing dishes, killer Sunday roasts (up to 400 covers!), and a menu thats 60% comfort, 40% show-stopper. British cuisine at its heart, with creative freedom built in.
Who are you?
You're a creative, grounded, and passionate chef whos ready to step out of the chains and into a kitchen where your ideas matter.

- A voice of your own - humble but opinionated
