A historic tavern reimagined in the heart of Manchester city centre, where everyone is welcomed like a regular—whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth. Located between Spinningfields and St John’s, we’re a favourite among locals looking for after-work drinks and visitors searching for new pubs in Manchester with character.

We’re proud to be one of the few pubs near Aviva Studios, serving up pies from Great North Pie co. alongside homemade sausage rolls and a simple snack menu of freshly made local produce.

Expect a great beer selection, rotating lines from local breweries, and a small but considered list of classic cocktails. Whether you're exploring bars in St. John’s district, or hunting for a proper pub, with live music (Thursday to Sunday) Stables Tavern hits the mark.

Independent, dog-friendly, and housed in the original Rovers Return bar set, this is your neighbourhood tavern. A welcoming spot and dedicated purveyors of a freshly pulled pint in the heart of Manchester.
