Boozing and shitholes, story of my life 😂 (as someone who grew up in South London and now lives in quiet leafy Staffordshire I often travel to dive areas for my 'shithole fix' - I love a good look around the local cess pit) (between say 6am and 1pm of course then it's time to leg it 🤣)

    Crazy how times have changed - she bought the flat from the council for something silly like £20k and it’s now worth £200,000

    None of these pubs are remotely dodgy. The Millstone is the last proper pub remaining from when "the northern quarter" was conjured up (previously it was just part of ancoats. Now ancoats is considered to be across the main road.)
    If you want truly dodgy pubs, you have to leave the city centre. The city centre is safe as houses.
    Go somewhere like The Winston in salford precinct or The Sparrow in collyhurst

    Wow, £5.70 for a pint! When supermarkets are selling 4 cans of draught Guinness for that its no wonder people drink at home these days! I can remember when a pint in a pub used to be an affordable £1.10 (late 80s, approx £2.80 in today's money), now it's become a luxury that many can't afford and we're losing 30 pubs every week in the UK as a result.

    the street you had the 2 for 1..is called oldham street....back in the seventies, it had 3 yates, all on the one street...(before yates went upmarket)...we had, top, middle and bottom yates's we called them....they all had sawdust on the floors, and "brass spitoons" all along the bottom of the bar...long wooden tables, and equally long benches, was all you had to sit on...the speciality drink was the "BLOB"...austrailian rough wine, drawn out of huge barrels, behind the bar..so, a blob itself, is made up of half aussie wine, half hot water, tablespoon of sugar, and a slice of lemon to finish it off...after you have had about 4 or 5 blobs in yates..you were ready to hit the discos, which were all over manchester back then....they were really rough places..sort of like a wild west saloon...(guaranteed fights breaking out every night)...i myself, in yates's had many a fight back in those days, it was just the culture back then...but that never put people off...everbody would start their weekend in one, or better still, all three yates..before they went on to the nightclubs...happy days eh!!!

    Honestly none of these seem dodgy at all, in fact they all seem completely fine to me. You want to find dodgy you need to go more provincial, go to a town not a city and find the most run down area and then you'll find dodgy. Preferably look for one that has a clear affiliation with a particular football team. I used to drink in a semi dodgy pub which was pretty hilarious as one side was absolutely fine then the other side was dodgy as fk if you weren't a local in that side you were likely to get a spanking. It would be entertaining to see new people come in for the first time and then go into the dodgy side - most would come back to safety faster than Usaine Bolt with a look of fear on their faces 😂 you only made that mistake once.

    Not many “rough” pubs left in Manchester or most city centres now but if you go back I’d recommend The Old Turks Head at Shudehill that’s still got some character. Also go to some in and around the estates near Old Trafford and the Etihad when there’s a big game on for the overspill of fans without tickets, get a lot higher percentage of proper local fans who are passionate about the divide. The Townley walking distance from City gets a special mention you’ll think you’ve walked into a Shameless episode but they’ll certainly make you feel welcome as long as you don’t go in pro United
