TRAVELLERS are racing to Manchester after a woman revealed a little-known airport pub with a very unusual view.
Just 50 feet away from Manchester Airport’s runway lies The Airport Pub.
Lucky for us, Harriet, known as @haz.her.passport on TikTok didn’t gatekeep this interesting day trip.
“Perfect way to spend a Saturday in the sun!”, the TikTok user posted.
“Best beer garden ever”, she added.
While sitting in the beer garden of this quirky pub, you can catch a glimpse of one of the world’s largest commercial aeroplanes.
The Airbus A380 is also the world’s only full-length double-jet airliner.
Plus, it can take up to 853 passengers.
Emirates operates three flights daily from Manchester Airport, and it seems the TikToker waited for two hours to watch the plane take off for her “plane-obsessed boyfriend.”
After sharing the video via TikTok, Harriet has racked up over 616.7K views and 13.8K likes.
Not to mention hundreds of comments.
One person said: “I’d sit there all day if I could, love it.”
“Love it here, especially when it’s sunny”, said another.
While a third person commented: “Haha this is epic. I could spend all day there.”
In response to a person asking Harriet whether you need to book a seat in advance, she replied: “You can just turn up!
“Parking can be a nightmare though as they often close the car park when it’s full and you have to wait for a slot.
“Another option if that happens is the runway visitor park”, the TikTokker added.
A fifth person shared their excitement: “What a cute idea! I’ve always loved the airport vibes, so this is perfection and probs cheaper than a flight.”
“Taking the kids here next Sunday to surprise them with their holiday on Monday!”, exclaimed a sixth person.
The Airport Pub even claims: “People come to enjoy the spectacle and excitement of our view as it’s the closest you can get to a plane without boarding it in the UK!”
And the fun doesn’t stop there.
Inside the pub are spitfire armchairs and a jet engine booth seating.
Dive into the menu and you have 13 different burgers to choose from.
On the other hand, there are some lighter meal options, including salads and various dirty fries choices.
The pub also has a variety of award-winning beers, spirits and cocktails.
Plus there’s a play area in the beer garden to provide the kids with some extra entertainment.
Now, to get to this family-friendly pub, there are several recommended routes.
Including the Shadowmoss Tram Stop, Manchester Airport Train Station and Bus Routes to and from Manchester Airport.
Alternatively, you can park and pay and display outside the pub.
We recommend checking the pub’s website for opening hours.
