A low ceiling pub with a restaurant attached that specialises in traditional British food. Sam's dates back to 1872 and has been on the current premises since the 1950's. The bar is ahead of you as you come down stairs from the street. There are 6 handpumps dispensing 4 beers (2 are usually duplicated). There is a small space to the left with high barrel tables and a larger area to the right of the bar. Steeped in history and once patronised by LS Lowry who is commemorated with a life-sized statue at the bar.
