We're excited to announce that Kennedy's Altrincham, has been named in CAMRA's Guide - Manchester's Best Beer Pubs and Bars, the second edition authored by Matthew Curtis of Pellicle Magazine. You'll find us in the Salford and Trafford section on page 163, which feels right for a pub that's become a cornerstone of a great day out in Altrincham.

We love how Matthew puts it...

"Kennedy's has formed a cornerstone of many a day exploring Alty. The inviting red-painted exterior leads the way into a pub that does feel authentically Irish, with well-trodden wooden floorboards and a large bar that offers a decent range of beer... By day it's pretty subdued, but at night Kennedy's is transformed into a live music venue inviting fun and frivolity from the raucous crowd."

We're proud to be recognised alongside some of the best pubs and bars the city has to offer. And, if you haven't been in yet, you know where to find us.


Thanks Matthew and CAMRA - we completely agree with you!
