   Recently moved to the area and have just came back from our first visit here after having a couple of pints with our dog. We sat at the back out of the way and were quiet and respectful and enjoyed a board game and a chat with other patrons. Things were fine, and on leaving we had had some water left over (1 inch in a pint glass) and it being a heatwave and not wanting to waste it, decided to pore it into a plant before returning all our glasses to the bar to save the bar staff trapesing to the back (plus didn't want to waste water during a heatwave). As we left our empties on the bar and said our goodbyes, the bar man took the opportunity to simply say, "the plant doesn't need watering". I apologised, said sorry and asked "have I damaged it?" and his response was "it doesn't need watering" before turning back to his friends at the bar and offering no further information - let alone a thank you/cheerio. It's a shame because the bar itself seems lovely and has a nice vibe that it is shooting for - it's just a pity that the customer service didn't reflect this in the end with such a standoffish attitude in front of others for no reason. Had to post this whilst it was fresh in our memory as we are genuinely confused how such a benign act during a heatwave could have caused such offence.

   Only my second visit to this micro bar close to Burnage railway station. Ic and Flic liked the choice of three real ales. Had a pint of best bitter from London brewery Five Points. Very good. A one room micro bar in an old shop unit. Missus liked her rosé wine.

   Lovely chap behind the bar - can't remember his name. Very nice man. Approachable. Knows what he's talking about. If you say "give me your best beer" he will find it. I would actually go so far as to describe him as a sort of beer whisperer. Anyway - pub is cute. Lots of awesome beers on.

   An excellent, friendly micropub with quite a wide selection of draught ales, bottles and cans. The regulars are interesting and friendly decent people. The sort of bar that gives you a lift
