Advantages: Reasonably priced food and drink in central Manchester Disadvantages: Horrible toilets
I work just down the street from The Crown and have been a frequent visitor for over 12 years. Since my first visit it has transformed from a grotty side street pub that to its current guise of more up-market lounge bar.

Layout

On entering the front doors of the Crown you immediately see the long bar, covering the whole of the back wall, which is directly opposite the doors. To the right is a section of high bar tables, a couple of slot machines and access to the toilets, to the left are the comfy sofas, behind which is the main food seating area, which consists of booths and small tables.

Bed and breakfast

Advantages: A fun film with a great soundtrack and superb remake Disadvantages: Can get a bit dull at times

I am normally into more action or war type films, but this is nothing like this and is very different to the norm for me but yet still a great film and worth a watch.
This film is actually a remake from the original in 1968 and is about Thomas Crown - a rich billionaire who owns a massive company. However he gets very bored being this rich and needs to find something to do to occupy himself. For example he crashes a very expensive catamaran and bets thousands of pounds on a golf swing for the fun of it.
