Salmon of Knowledge

Description

Sitting waterside at MediaCity, The Salmon of Knowledge at Salford Quays is a modern Irish pub with a warm, green‑lit bar, big‑screen sport, and a buzzy mix of standing space, booths and outdoor tables for dockside people‑watching. Inside, expect a relaxed, lived‑in feel - wood, brick and brass - plus regular live music that turns casual pints into proper sessions. Accessibility is straightforward and there’s space to catch the game without a bad sightline.

Guinness served with reverence, rotating taps from Franciscan Well, and a deep bench of Irish whiskeys alongside crowd‑pleasing cocktails; that's the Salmon of Knowledge ethos. In the kitchen, The Last Stop keeps things comforting - think cult‑favourite Irish spice bags, stacked burgers and weekend-friendly plates - so you’re set whether you’re pre‑show at The Lowry or settling in for a late one.

This is the former Dockyard site, reborn in August 2025 as MediaCity’s first Irish pub, so it fills up fast on match nights and during live sets.
