The Ship & Mitre was at the forefront of the craft beer revolution when it kicked off in the north, and the Dale Street establishment certainly hasn’t rested on its laurels in the years since. The cask and bottle selection is about as good as you’re going to get in the city, and the building itself is steeped in history, almost a century’s worth of the stuff. Also look out for The Ship in a Bottle, the pub’s beer shop in the centre of town.
