As a theatre creator I've played The Kings Arms a lot over the years, but the last 2 years in particular have been my favourite. This is down to Lisa Connor and her fab, lovely, friendly staff. Nothing is ever too much for her and she goes the extra mile to make the experience memorable and enjoyable - it all stems from her and her attitude to make The Kings Arms so welcoming. From fantastic ales to food, from music to theatre and comedy (and knitting), this place is the cultural hub of the Salford/Manchester border.
For theatre, music, film, comedy practitioners you could not ask for a more fantastic, flexible space as the upstairs theatre, there is also a studio theatre and even a cellar space, it's brilliantly flexible. A lot of famous future stars are gonna be cutting their teeth here, such a rich cultural history.
The Kings Arms is a WINNER in every way, check it out and meet the Fab Lisa Connor and her staff, they'll welcome you and you'll have a fantastic time, can't wait to come back here. Joe O'Byrne, The Haunting of Blaine Manor. xx
Quirky, down to earth, with real ales, snug and lounge, books to read, at least one performance space upstairs. Good chat from staff and regulars. A good independent traditional pub with a few modern hipster trimmings (herbal teabags spotted behind the bar, mural of an 80s pop legend - no not that one - in the gents).
The no alcopops policy is softened by a broad range of I-cant-believe-it's-called-ciders (the pomegranite and strawberry one was good) and well known beers alongside half a dozen real ale taps.
Outstanding venue, great staff, good range of beers. Food is hot and tasty. Loads of atmosphere always seems to be something happening one of Salford's hidden gems. Highly recommended
