Tib Street Tavern in Manchester

Decent pints in NQ showing the football. A good range but felt like there was something missing. No real complaints though!

Met my daughter and her pals to watch football, so had drinks not food. Bar Service was fabulousl. Served quickly, tables kept clear of empty glasses throughout by super quick pot collector. Pleasant place to sit and drink, with lots of TVs of you are watching sport.

Excellent Pub! ●Great, quick, friendly service. ●Reasonable prices. Good range on tap (Pravha a niche find). ●Football on multiple TVs, overhead projector. ●Clean. Overall an excellent pub!

Went to watch the WSL game on Saturday, great Pies and Pints. Staff very welcoming! Will be back soon.

Brilliant pub to meet before the match

On the last Sunday of each month, go visit this place. They offer a quiz game where the winning team is rewarded, and it's a lot of fun to compete with other people while making jokes and taking in the welcoming atmosphere of the place.

I have been going to tib street tavern for years , always friendly people and staff , excellent service and the nicest doormen you'll ever meet , highly recommend

Great pub/location and showed sports. Would recommend

In for pre gig drinks, good pint of Guinness

Watched England match, great atmosphere friendly pub great night

Watched the football here, nice pub.

Good place to watch football and the food was okay but the girl with the dyed dark hair is the moodiest person I’ve ever come across in hospo!!

Really enjoy watching sporting events here! It's always a good atmosphere and there are plenty of screens located around both the upper and lower floors. If it's a sporting event you really want to watch I'd try and reserve a booth downstairs.

Relaxed atmosphere, even with the sport on the TV. The volume was set just right. A good choice of beers served with a smile. We didn't try the food.

It was alright. Not much variety of beers though considering places that are nearby in the northern quarter. The staff were friendly though and it was showing the Euros on a big screen so definitely good if that's your bag ⚽

Found this pub had TNT sports so went to watch the rugby as Sale were playing and enjoyed a pint and atmosphere. Pub food looked good but I didn't have any.

Awful food! We were sat right near the kitchen and they had bags of Tesco own frozen chips on the side! Food was not great at all!! You could tell it was frozen burgers, frozen chips! Certainly not ‘restaurant cooked’ food ! So don’t expect anything special at all !

Lovely place with relaxed soul music. Came on the day of Manchester half marathon just after event. It was empty 😁 Had hotdogs - german bratwurst was good, veggie one was a bit dry. I would prefer a shroom kitchen sausage instead. Would have liked to have an option for a different side - some salad instead of chips.

I recently visited Tibs Tavern Pub with my parents after purchasing a Groupon deal for a meal for four, which included burgers, fries, and beer for each of us. Despite living in London, we decided to make the trip to Tibs for a special evening during our 3 day trip to Manchester, only to encounter some challenges that detracted from our overall experience. Prior to our visit, I contacted Tibs Tavern to inquire about making a reservation, as recommended by the Groupon voucher. Initially, I was informed that no reservation was necessary. However, upon calling again closer to our visit, I learned that the pub would be closed on Monday and open from 4pm onwards on Tuesday. With this information in mind, we arrived at Tibs around 7pm on Tuesday, eager to enjoy our meal. As Wednesday afternoon was our return date back to London. Upon entering the pub, we were disappointed to find it crowded with boisterous patrons, creating an atmosphere that was not conducive to a pleasant dining experience for my elderly parents. Despite our best efforts to find a suitable space, the pub was packed on all floors, with most customers engrossed in watching football matches on TV. After a series of unsuccessful attempts to locate a comfortable dining area, I approached a staff member near the bar for assistance. (Guy about 30yrs old) Regrettably, his response was dismissive and unhelpful, simply pointing + directing me to yet another packed floor without offering any real solution to our predicament. I came back downstairs to the 2nd floor where he responded by saying "well I can't make a space appear for you" the tone wasn't necessary considering I wasn't rude before or after our exchange, in fact that was all the words he spoke to me, the rest was just him on his phone and pointing for me to try upstairs. Luckily my parents didn't have to see this as it would have angered them too. Feeling overlooked and undervalued as customers, we made the difficult decision to leave Tibs Tavern without being able to enjoy our meal. It was evident that the staff's attention was primarily focused on serving the male clientele, particularly those interested in watching football matches. While the pub may appeal to football enthusiasts and individuals seeking a lively atmosphere, it is not recommended for those looking for a more relaxed and accommodating dining experience, especially when visiting with elderly family members. I did have a brief interaction with a more understanding and apologetic individual (mid 40s), whom I believe may have been the manager. It was unfortunate that the same level of understanding and customer service was not reflected by the staff members on the middle floor during our visit. In conclusion, while Tibs Tavern Pub may cater to a specific demographic, it fell short in providing a welcoming and customer-centric experience for us. I hope that this feedback serves as an opportunity for improvement in customer service and overall customer satisfaction at Tibs Tavern. We paid for a taxi to get from the hotel, we tried twice to actually book a table to avoid such a situation, and then was met with a packed out pub with not a single available seat and a rude male who just didn't have an ounce of care. Got a refund for Groupon (as credits) and went for a kebab 1/4 of the price. Ashame about the taxi money and waste of our time though. The worst was the I felt embarrassed towards my parents as I was the one who organized it, and felt sorry that we relied on Tibs to provide a table for us on our last night in Manchester.

Very good pub in the heart of Manchester. Good food and good beer. Visited few times and really good with kids. Give my daughter some chips free of charge. Great staff and friendly.

We were recently here for our friends party. The staff couldn’t have done enough for us making sure we were all happy and enjoying ourselves. Even brought out some tasty nachos for everyone. Great vibe upstairs too. A great friendly pub.

Staff are absolute bellends, big bird and bipolar Betty , absolute zero people skills

Only had drinks and made very welcome by the staff.

Great bar in the northern quarter

Great pub for watching sports. Good food. Drinks a bit pricey. Usually a good atmosphere. Generally very busy but staff are efficient.

Great seating options, lovely bar staff, great TV screens with sport and music is good alongside good alcohol choice

Did not eat but what a lovely day enjoying the football and beer of course

Ive been going to this place for over 20 years .Its such a brillaint vibe in here so meet friends ,with two levels one being a basemend area with seating cubicles .great place for the varied beers and wines onsale ,can get a little busy on football match days .

I came here for my birthday, the staff was great they made my night really special, Prices are reasonable. Had the best night x

A fantastic atmospheric pub for watching live sport in the centre of Manchester

Went to Tib Street Tavern on Sunday early afternoon. Had a Groupon Voucher which was honoured for 4 people (myself, 18 yr old son and younger twins). The venue is great especially for sporting events and geared more toward adults so I appreciated my kids being allowed in. The food was excellent and the staff were great. I have seen some negative reviews on here but my experience was the opposite. Fully recommend trying this venue.

Good bar to watch sport with multiple screens and the can show multiple games. Good is good. The butchers dog was great. Portions are large.

Shockingly overpriced- avoid £5.40 for a small bottle of beer, you should be ashamed. Not good enough as a venue and the most miserable staff. False advertising as well. Better places around, so disappointed

Great big tellys for watching the mighty NUFC lock horns with Woolwich Arsenal. Decent pints too.

Friday and quick service very busy

Great for sport. The food dose looks good ,

First time visiting, went in for the football - which is great to watch in there with plenty of TV's. However my experience was unfortunately ruined by an extremely rude member of bar staff, who went on to falsely accuse me of calling her a rude word and used this as a basis for kicking me out... I left calmly and then the doorman went on to say "how embarrassing it was to be kicked out by a woman", which I didn't find appropriate at all. All in all it's a good pub with very weird staff - wouldn't return.

Probably the best football pub I've been in, great screens, easy viewing, good atmosphere

Good place to have a beer and watch a football or rugby match! It can get crowded during a Manchester United or Manchester City match. Food is served here as well.

Went to watch a city match with 2 friends who were here visiting it had the best vibes and space, having popped into Walkabout, Director's Box, and the little sports bar up the road, before deciding on this. Didn't realise they did food too, though I didn't order any.

This was our first visit to this northern quarter pub for awhile and it won't be so long before we go back. It is a friendly place with a lot going for it. One thing that we weren't that keen on is that there are televisions on every wall, and you find your eyes drawn to them, even if you don't want to. Other than this, it is a laid-back Place with a good atmosphere and friendly staff. We hadn't realised, but we had arrived at happy hour, which allows all beers to be sold at £4. This is great for the city centre and we would take advantage of it again.

Visited before going match freindly football vibe

I don't know why this place was so quiet on a Saturday night, it's a lovely bar with booths downstairs, music playing and drinks flowing (reasonable priced) we had a great laugh in here

Friendly pub, good atmosphere. We watched the F1

Nice sports bar but the bouncer ruined the night. We booked a booth for 7 but turned up with 6. The 7th of our party turned up 45 mins later having previously been at a BBQ and was refused entry. I spoke to the bar staff to assist who went to speak to the bouncer and the was still refused entry. The 7th of our party had not been drinking but was simply refused entry out of principle of us not telling him he was going to be late. The bar staff did not interject into the situation although she could tell that it was unnecessary. The bouncer was incredibly rude and clearly on some sort of power trip. I was perfectly polite and was approached with aggression to the point I thought I was going to be thrown out. Real shame which ruined what was set to be a memorable evening.

Great pub for the football games. Good atmosphere and excellent location to the city centre.

Great place to watch the football or F1

Went to there to watch football. Nice big screens for that. At the end of the game we were discussing making a return trip for another match coming up. We asked a member of staff about food options etc. The same member of staff then told us we would have to leave unless we ordered more drinks. We'd only finished the last round a few minutes before and the game had just ended. None of us were drunk or causing a disturbance. The place was nearly empty, no one waiting to be seated. It just seemed like he didn't want us there. It's a shame as we were planning to come back and hopefully be regular visitors, buy more drinks and food etc but now will find somewhere else.

Service was great. Staff helpful. Well managed all round

Excelente servicio, felicitaciones

An old pub on tib St with multiple TV screens for sports,on 2 levels with main toilets downstairs but disabled on street level and do serve food more a man's pub than family 👪 good beer selection 😀

Third attempt of a visit here. First time they were “full”. Second time I got in, and it was a very nice experience, though the brew selection isn’t ideal. Fun experience to watch a City match! Third visit today and I wasn’t let in as I was wearing rain pants on a rainy day! Wtf there is a dress code at 2pm on a Sunday is beyond me, but that’s ridiculous! It’s not a fashion show, I’m buying pints to watch a football match. Go to Pie & Ale instead (just around the corner)! Much better brew selection with projection screens instead of teeny tiny TVs!

Great venue for the football lots of screens!

A nice sports-style bar in the heart of Manchester’s Northern Quarter. Nicely style with plenty of seating over two floors and a good selection of beers. TV screens well located for watching sport. The staff seem very friendly and efficient (short bar waiting times despite being very busy). Rex commended for a pre-match drink and dinner.

Heaving when the footballs on. Lovely pub but not quite for me !

Relaxed, welcoming, spacious and beautiful lil Tavern. Great selection of drinks and kitchen snacks like vegan nachos, chicken tenders. Lots of TVs to watch the footy too

Visited the pub to watch a football match and had a good time.

Best proper pub in Manchester for watching the sport. So many screens so good for multiple events too.

Decent place. Good staff,Just 1 rude manager

Pleasant pub, considering the football was on, it wasn't rowdy. Just people enjoying themselves, barstaff polite, and attentive with clearing tables, and glass collecting, so nice and tidy, my advice is try it for yourself

Great Football Bar. No crowded Bar Staff Fab. Appy dayz

Pub tipico inglese, offrono ottime birre, panini e fritti. Ideale per guardare una qualsiasi partita di calcio in compagnia con amici. Unica pecca il servizio un po lento.

Not a place for me, wasn't impressed. For others it'll be fine. Just my opinion

Shocking, ordered chips and burger for 4 people,chips hard and overdone,burgers were hard,not very nice,awful experience, did give feedback to manager,left disappointed and hungry,

I have never seen a television as big to watch sport on, let alone the drop down screen! Great beer selection. Friendly staff. Proper tavern. Love it.

Great northern quarter bar, perfect for watching the footy with your mates.

This is a great bar, perfect to watch sport or just catch up with friends. Bar staff are great, really friendly and make THE best espresso martini! Being a city centre bar, the door staff are a welcome sight! Get down there but make sure there’s still a seat for me!

Sports bar not even showing the premier league, what a shame 😂

Amazing atmosphere in this pub when the footy is on and the staff are friendly and fun!!!

Good fun venue. Good entertainment. X

Proper boozer decent atmosphere and you can book tables for the football.. also have drinks offers after work.. great place

Good burgers, good beer and an excellent music selection. Nice place to happy hours with friends, date, football match or just killing time.

Nice pub atmosphere, 3 tvs showing sports . We had burger and chips , tasty hot and good price. Staff were friendly. Drinks were reasonable price, good choice for centre of Manchester

Really nicely fitted out, staff lovely food good, beer nice and clean, there are even parking spots right in front it, wasn't there when a sporting even was on but with the good layout and plenty of quality TVs It is sure to be a good choice

Don't buy off Groupon. Paid for 2x5oz burgers with cheese and bacon. The manager told me due to increase in the cost of food I could only have 1x5oz burger and the cheese and bacon were £1 each. When I explained that isn't what I paid for he told me to leave or he would phone the police. They scan your qr code before you order so Groupon won't help. Should be called FIB ST TAVERN. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.

Best pub in Manchester. Service is quick and staff is friendly. The Staropramen and Pravha is one of the best beers which I haven't found at any other pub! Gem of a place we found. We have been here before and will definitely be returning! The manager Sam is great and makes an effort with customers.

We came to the Tib Street Tavern to enjoy food, to be rudely told by the manger Sam that our voucher is not valid. His reason was the price of food has increased and they were unwilling to honour the Groupon we had bought. I tried to reason with and get an agreement to add extra to the cheeper burger but he refused. He then insisted that the problem lay with Groupon and not the Tavern, this offer is still being sold on Groupon today 01/02/2023 @ 7pm. His words were it’s not my problem

Went for a burger and beer offer, burgers were decent, great staff, nice atmosphere. Reckon it's great when there are sporting events, will go again

+ One of the better places to watch sport in town Nice enough choice of beer (one cask on when we were there plus plenty other draughts) Very friendly and welcoming staff - Food menu is pretty limited and burgers were average

Used the Groupon voucher two burgers and two pints for a fabulous deal. Lovely looking bar friendly staff. Will be back.

Great value and for well prepped food. They go over and above with the condiments they have available and set up is clean and comfy. Thank you!

Food is not very good, even by pub standards. The pub does have a few large TVs but very often they don’t have the rights to show football matches. When they do have the rights the crowd here seems relatively indifferent to the match on. Not a good place to watch if it is on. Better options.

Decent beer, good staff, perfect for footie

Great place for a drink,food and to watch a match (sadly, not my team the day we went but good atmosphere all the same)

Good space, beer selection could be better

Good place to drink and watched sports and great friendly staff.

축구 중계해줘서 축구보기 좋고 현지 펍 느낌 제대로 느낄 수 있었습니다

Excellent venue, happy hour was fantastic!

Decent beers and loads of screens, a good football-watching pub. Food is geared more towards bar snacks I spose but it's fairly reasonable.

Great seats downstairs watching the England Game, chicken wings are good!!

Food waste of time. Not able to get correct order for food.

Exceptional for a sport fan. Lots of screens all over so you'll never miss a minute

Great lil spot. Friendly staff. Decent food massive TV screen for the footy fairly priced drinks clean toilets 🚻 I can't complain

Great pub for watching sport, friendly staff

Great sports bar ruined by rude and obnoxious door staff. Been here a handful of times and dealt with two different bouncers, both as rude as the other. Won’t be returning after not being let in for asking if they were showing the boxing after the football and then receiving several irrelevant reasons for why I couldn’t come in.

Great Bar very good atmosphere, good to watch football and have a pint or two.

Avoid, Avoid Avoid! OMG never experienced anything like this place before, girl behind the bar acted like petulant child, told us to “just put on bad review on I don’t care” do yourself a favour and avoid this dump

Guinness e partite, cosa chiedere di più a Manchester. Però le 20 chiudono la cucina. Unica nota negativa.

Poor. Been here before and had a nice burger, so bought a voucher when I saw one on Groupon. Went here tonight and had our burger which was quite frankly awful. Had the 5oz beefburger and fries. Burger was very overcooked, dry and completely flavourless. Hubbie had a pint and I had two bramble cocktails as it was happy hour..two for £12. Poor cocktails, more ice than drink and just not great. Really disappointing. Lovely place but they seriously need to up their game.
