More information on Moon Under Water

This is said to be the largest pub in the UK. Although a relatively recent addition to the Manchester bar scene, it prides itself on being a jukebox-free zone - instead the teak wood panelled walls are lined with books and board games for the use of its many patrons. Despite its enormous size and the number of office parties it attracts, it is less intimidating than you might expect. Drinks and no-frills bar food are well-priced and there is plenty of seating, along with a popular upper balcony floor to the rear.
