The Nelson in Manchester

Very comfortable place to be in children allowed in until 8pm! Which is handy when you just want a soft drink Love the staff Place is clean and well kept Highly recommend if you want a cheap beer good service and a lovely time!

Sounds like it’s gone down hill since I worked there a lot more lively and very busy with the old owners and the time of service and entertainment was a lot later really enjoyed working there but due to ill health and family issues I had to resign unfortunately which was a shame as I got a lot of experience and I was a quick learner which they were impressed with and they didn’t have no problems with the colour of people skin neither

No food just a great pub good music ladies toilets lovely and clean, mens not great but typical of a small pub We had a fab time

Very nice service, good and cheap beer, and free hot dogs <3 cheers from Poland

VERY CHEAP BEERS! Great pub that has karaoke every night. Nice atmosphere in there with super cheap beers

No food just party time beer beer beer

really lovely staff!! made the evening 10/10

amazing service-lovely staff!!!

Cracking little pub, found en route to a date night and had a few drinks in here. Landlady and staff really pleasant and up for a laugh, gave us some great restaurant recommendations nearby. One of the regulars even bought us a pint after a win on the horses 🤣 Would certainly go again!

Ambiente brillante. Bebidas asequibles. Tuve una gran noche. El personal y la casera eran increíbles. Sin duda volveré a visitar.

Atmosphere is brilliant. Lovely staff and landlady. Had an amazing night. Thank you.

A fantastic place, lovely and clean and good prices and friendly service.

BEST KARAOKE!!! 🤣🤣 Thanks for a very lively evening and a well needed cider or 5!!! Great service and lovely clean pub. Defo will be back

Under new fantastic ownership, new owners have created such a positive atmosphere for everyone, new and existing staff are very welcoming and polite and provide a great service to all

Still sticking to the floor not much has changed in 40yrs

Staff is really rude, one person stated ‘brown people shouldn’t be drinking’ to me as if that’s a funny thing to say.

Honestly if you’re not white, don’t go to this pub. The owners are extremely racist. If I could I would give them a minus rating.

Thank goodness the Nelson now has a lovely couple running it in Hayley and Nick. Long may it continue and this review is from Chris who went to school at Broadoak and Parrswood and whose Mum and Dad have lived in East Didsbury since 1962 and still going

Proper pub, decent prices and a great darts set up. Raised oche, scoreboard, lighting - Perfect.

It stunk really bad. Table were sticky and though it's cheap in there, I honestly felt sick afterwards from bring in there. I don't even want to start on how filfy the toilets were... much nicer pubs in the area

Unreal Karaoke, unfamiliar barmaid

I recently had the pleasure of trying Nelson Pop, and I must say, it completely blew me away! This unique and captivating soda has truly raised the bar when it comes to refreshing beverages. I couldn't wait to share my amazing experience and write this glowing review. From the moment I cracked open the bottle, I was greeted by an irresistible aroma that tickled my senses. The fizzing sound and the anticipation that followed only heightened my excitement. As I took my first sip, I was instantly transported to a world of pure indulgence. The flavor profile of Nelson Pop is nothing short of extraordinary. It strikes the perfect balance between sweet and tangy, with a touch of effervescence that dances on your taste buds. Each sip was a symphony of citrusy zest, reminiscent of sun-kissed oranges and the subtle notes of tropical fruits. The complexity of flavors had me hooked from the very beginning. What sets Nelson Pop apart is its exceptional quality. It's evident that the creators have poured their heart and soul into crafting this beverage. The attention to detail is commendable, from the premium ingredients used to the elegant packaging that showcases the brand's commitment to excellence. Moreover, I appreciate that Nelson Pop is made with natural ingredients and contains no artificial additives. This aspect not only enhances the authenticity of the drink but also reassures me that I'm making a healthier choice. The versatility of Nelson Pop is another aspect worth mentioning. Whether enjoyed on its own, as a refreshing companion to a meal, or as a delightful mixer in creative cocktails, it never fails to impress. It's the perfect companion for any occasion, be it a casual gathering or a special celebration. Lastly, I must applaud the outstanding customer service I received during my interaction with Nelson Pop. The team was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about their product. Their genuine enthusiasm and willingness to go the extra mile truly made my experience even more enjoyable. In conclusion, Nelson Pop has earned my utmost admiration. It's a beverage that manages to capture the essence of pure delight and elevates the soda-drinking experience to new heights. I highly recommend giving Nelson Pop a try if you're seeking an extraordinary and memorable taste adventure. Cheers to the creators for crafting such a masterpiece!

Cheap as chips. Karaoke, footy, Boxing. What more do you want..

Best pub in Didsbury. Lovely, welcoming staff and even friendlier locals. Garden really is something special, perfect for a cold pint on a hot summers day. Cleanliness is 5/5, little bit on the pricey side though.

Fantastic pub. Does specialty beers on draught. They also do bottles beers. Food is lovely. Staff are friendly & helpful especially as it was a Saturday night & busy. Great atmosphere

Really good drink and the karaoke is amazing!

Cheap beer, friendly staff, love it definitely be goin again

Very old fashioned could do with major face-lift

What a amazing establishment, the landlords are welcoming , if you want a piss up best place , but don’t take the mic. I’m 20 mins down but I’ll back again amazing place. It’s one of those places where you need to understand, pissed or if you don’t come

5 stars for atmosphere. This place is solid gold. Karaoke seemingly at all times, whatever sport they can find and some nice geezers. Cheap drinks, jolly good times. Recently sang Islands in the Stream here. Ah, good memories.

Cheapest pub in Didsbury and friendly staff and punters.

We went for the kareoke but they were very unwelcoming since we were not regulars. We just wanted to sing one song but the next 3 hours were already booked up by regulars of the pub so we weren’t allowed. I hope they all have a nice night but it will not be with us again

Nice pub with friendly staff. Part of the Didsbury dozen.

Great atmosphere excellent prices

another nice pub in didsbury. it's very cheap as well. all the others are too expensive and Nelson is the best pub

Proper boozer - ain't one to take your bird too for a romantic night out out

Very good destination pub, very lively, great karaoke and very reasonable prices.

Absolute wet wipes not happy do not recommend this at all

Kicked me out for not buying a drink, 10 mins after I just finished one.

Saturday evening packed out only 1 serving on the bar no one policing the floor didn't stay walked in and left ridiculous.

Brilliant pub, great atmosphere,

Great beer,great price,great atmosphere.

Friendly, but the Guinness isn't great.

Has changed so much over the years. Now really a Karaoke bar.

Was fairly decent and had cheap drinks and I was having a great time until the karaoke started. There were only 3 of us in there on a Sunday but for some reason the person running it felt it appropriate to start her several hour long audition for xfactor. Nobody wants it just please stop

Good atmosphere, could do with more real ale choices ?

Fun night with friends on karaoke. Friendly locals. Not expensive.

Great pub nice people good choice of beers and lagers at a resonable price! Good little pub.

Absolutely wonderful and enjoyable place

Very welcoming, quaint boozer. Went in there for a game of darts and everyone is very welcoming.

Amazing atmosphere and good booze. What's jot to like?! Awesome 👌

Bloody brilliant pub, beige Dave ia awesome xxx

Super Pub...Well done Mick and yours wife. Browny

Had a good laugh and catch up with old friends with the mrs.

It was drawing me in with the bright lights and the zesty clientele. One day I'll venture in. Has the vibe of a place that would be super depressing on Christmas eve

Covid rules in place which was fine but unfortunately the odour from toilets was horrendous...had to leave after 1 drink...hopefully was fault with drains not cleanliness!! Bar lady...lovely.

Ok pub but folk were allowed to swan about the place without face masks on, made me a little uncomfortable tbh.

Noisy and crowded. Real ale OK but not the best.

Cheapest and safetest pub in didsbury

Good pub atmosphere good plenty of sport to watch.

It is very good but check your change sum of bar staff seem to make a lot of mistakes

Locals pub in upmarket Didsbury, with cake mark

Old style pub in centre of Didsbury, regulars pub with many drink at reasonable price.

Really friendly service and welcoming atmosphere

Beltin little boozer in the heart of the village. Lovely friendly staff, drinks were decently priced too considering the location, a little beer garden would be ideal if the space was available.

Great local pub with an excellent owner and beer

Lovely landlord and landlady, they make you feel so welcome, ♥️

It's ok was under different management then

Friday night great fun, Karioke, beer good, prices good. Go for it and enjoy.

Not a place for young kids .foul language rife.

Horrendous. The place was like a zoo.

Great traditional drinking pub with brilliantly low prices!

The best value in Didsbury, cheap drinks, friendly staff, sport, live music, horse racing on every day, what more can you ask for.

A small pub but good beer and staff 😀

Saturday night , very busy, great live singer.

Great little pub, small and cosy.
