Don’t be put off by the brass plaque outside the door, although the owner might be eccentric in his tastes, it’s all in a good cause – providing a nice place to go and have a drink. Great selection of Wines, Ales and Whiskys, with interesting décor (there is ALWAYS something to look at), and good service all add up to a drinking experience from a bye gone age, brought bang up to date for the discerning pub go-er. Just make sure you are dressed casual, but smart – we know someone who was banned for life for wearing a baseball cap.

A very unusual pub! I suspect that the Canny Man's is pretty unique, and it doesn't seem to change over the years. The whole place has weird and unusual things hanging from the ceiling and on the walls, ranging from wax models, to bits of car - you certainly wouldn't be lacking in a subject for discussion, that's for sure! This used to be a working man's pub, in fact many moons ago women were not allowed in at all! It used to be termed as a traditional 'spit and sawdust' bar but I haven't see (more...)

Canny Mans is a very old pub. It is very strange place with all different and unusal things on the wall and celing. Years ago women were not allowed in this pub. They have a note outside telling you the things your not allowed, your not allowed your mobile, or camera in the place. It is quite a cleaky pub though, and it is very expensive, and is upmarket. Didn't feel it was a very friendly place, as people stared at you if you weren't a local.

Pretty unusual place which is quite pricy but classy. I thought it was great.
