About the Pub

This vibrant waterside bar in Sale enjoys one of the best locations in the area — right on the canal, surrounded by the buzz of Manchester’s southern suburbs. Known for its stylish interiors, popular brunches, and high-energy cocktail trade, it’s a go-to destination for daytime socialising and lively weekends alike.

Trading strongly throughout the day, the venue offers a balanced mix of food and drink, with a standout reputation for bottomless brunches, casual lunches, and late-night drinks. The spacious, open-plan interior is cleverly zoned, combining booth seating, high tables, and flexible areas ideal for events or private hire. A well-equipped kitchen supports the on-site menu, while a successful dark kitchen operation adds another revenue stream that the next operator can continue to develop.

Outside, a large suntrap terrace overlooks the water — a major draw in the warmer months. With bi-fold doors connecting the terrace to the main bar, the atmosphere flows effortlessly from inside to out, creating the perfect social space for after-work drinks, celebrations, or weekend catch-ups.

With its exceptional location, strong community presence, and established reputation, this is an incredible opportunity for an ambitious operator to run a well-loved site at the heart of Sale’s hospitality scene — and to put their own creative stamp on one of Greater Manchester’s most attractive canal-side venues.
