Horse and Jockey

Chorlton Green.
This used to be a slightly rough place where kids went to drink. After an expensive refurbishment it has become a bit posh for its own good, styling itself as "the Inn on the Green". The exterior still looks quite impressive - with a large beer terrace overlooking Chorlton Green in front of the half-timbered facade. The low wooden beams have also been retained.
The emphasis is now solidly on food. This is served throughout the pub and in a separate dining room. There are a few decent beers available, but this pub feels very much like it has been sanitised. Everything is too clean and shiny and new. Not a great place for a few pints unless you are outside in the sunshine.
