Reborn in 2017 under the creative eye of Lyndon Higginson, this pub is a delightful mix of history and contemporary comfort. Originally established as The Bay Horse Hotel during the Georgian era, it once served as a bustling watering hole for factory workers. Despite a fiery demise in the 1990s, it rose from the ashes to become the beloved Bay Horse Tavern we know today.
With its laid-back vibe, this pub is the perfect spot to unwind, whether you're basking in the sun on a summer's day or snuggling up on a chilly evening. The bar is a treasure trove of libations, boasting a vast range of gins, craft beers, and other enticing beverages.
The menu at The Bay Horse Tavern is a modern tribute to classic British pub fare, featuring small plates brimming with locally sourced produce. Indulge in dishes like caramelized onion tart with goat's cheese, pork belly in a cider glaze, or tempura king prawns. Main courses include timeless favorites such as beer-battered haddock with triple-cooked chips, Cumberland sausage with garlic and chive mash, and a hearty Lancashire hotpot.
Sundays are a special affair with sumptuous roasts served alongside homemade Yorkshire puddings and all the trimmings. Choose from roast chicken, Deep Clough Farm topside of beef, rolled pork belly, or a delectable butternut, sage, and walnut roast.
With its storied past dating back to 1812, The Bay Horse Tavern stands as a testament to Manchester’s rich history while embracing the flavors of today.
