The Woodstock Arms is a traditional pub housed in a massive Victorian redbrick building in Didsbury. Just off Burton Road, The Woodstock serves all the fizzy lager and Sunday roasts you might expect from a boozer of this kind, but it’s not without a modern flourish too. It’s dog friendly, there’s a quiz every Tuesday and it’s got a smashing outdoor area.

If you’re after a no-nonsense British pub, look no further than The Woodstock.
