Hi all

I'm coming across with about 20 mates for a stag night in July to Manchester - we are all taking in the Salford vs Wakey game in the evening. We normally go for a few beers in the little working mans club next to the ground. Can anyone suggest anywhere else to visit before the game? In addition - how do I get in touch with the club to put something on the tannoy for the mug who's getting wed???

PS - we are very well behaved - it's a bit of a "mature" stag night as most of us are late 30's or 40's.

Any ideas welcome

Cheers

The chapel st area is probably best, you've got the cresent, the old pint pot, the new oxford and the kings arms amongst others.

How far are these places from the ground.

Cheers

You can get a bus from chapel st to the top of weaste lane which takes about 10 minutes or just get a taxi.

Coming to salford for a stag do are you mad!!! Theres about 10 ale houses to choose from and not much near the ground fella.
No where in salford other than Worsley Id go for a stag night out, but thats hardly near the ground.

It's in Manchester predominatly but the stag is a big wakey fan hence taking the game in as well.

if it is before the game, then Eccles is your best bet then a 2min taxi ride to the ground or a 15 min walk. fill your boots in a weatherspoons

Jesus we spend enough time defending Salford's image don't send people willingly to Eccles and Weatherspoons in particular.

also known as the bar in Star wars

Go round the pubs in manchester city centre, get a 10 minute tram to eccles, getting off at weaste, 5 minute walk to the willows.

DO NOT GO TO ECCLES

aye theres nowt wrong with eccles pal i bet nearly everyone in salford has done a nightout in eccles and enjojed it or got bladdered

plus you can get the tram to the ground

well said zandor46, had plenty good night round Eccles then in Happy days for kebab. quality

my cousin did and ended up with unexpected quests

Eccles is unfortunately dieing a death, Weathers, The Oddies and The Duke are the only places worth a visit anymore.
I'd go to a few in Atlas Bar, Knott Bar and Dukes 92 then a 15 minute tram journey to Weaste to the delights of the Church.
