Premier Inn Manchester City Centre (Arena/Printworks) hotel — Pubs in Manchester

Strolling into this pub is like stepping into your mate’s living room — casual, relaxed, but with a cheeky pint always at the ready. Think less posh brasserie, more spirited local where everyone knows the score, especially during a Premier League match. With a nice 4.3 out of 5 from over 2,100 reviews, it’s clear this place knows how to keep thirsty fans happy.

Seating & Layout

The layout’s pretty straightforward but effective. Grab a table near the large screens if you’re serious about watching the match, or find a snug spot by the bar for a bit of banter with the staff. Seating can fill up, especially during big games, so it might be wise to show up a bit early. There’s a mix of high tops and comfy booths, catering to both groups and solo drinkers looking to soak up the atmosphere.

The Viewing Experience

You’ve got screens on all sides, making sure you won’t miss a second of the action. The sound? Cranked up, of course — nothing quite like the roar of the crowd to get your pulse racing. The pub’s also got a loyalty for more than just footy; rugby and other sports get their spotlight too. Just don’t ask for quiet when goals are scored, unless you fancy a few dirty looks.
