This Robinson's house lies just off the town centre, adjacent to the Bridgewater Canal and less than 5 minutes walk from Sale Metrolink station. It was recently refurbished (November 2017) to give a more modern and open look inside, with a grey exterior. High seats and stools dominate the interior. The pub attracts a mixed, mostly local clientele.
The main room has lost the fixed seating and the partitions that used to divide it from the bar. This makes it a little easier for folk using wheelchairs to get to the bar. Sadly there are still a couple of steps to negotiate on the way in from the car park. In the window to the front of the pub is a small raised area used as a stage for a disco and live music at weekends.
To the right as you enter from the street is a second room with more fixed seating and a large bay window with seats and tables around. To the left is a small area known as the Vault which was probably a former public bar but which is now opened up with no door and the bar continuing round to the main bar.
To the front is a decked area offering al-fresco drinking facing the canal. To the rear is a corridor leading the yard / car park with a couple of tables with parasols. Wheelchair access is possible through this door but there are two steps. The car park is rather small.
Railway, Sale
