We really enjoyed our visit to Annies. The staff were friendly, service was great and the food was delicious!!! We enjoyed every bite. Jennie is in the restaurant quite a bit, but we missed her that day. She had been in the morning. We did meet Jennie's partner Chris who was very friendly and gave us a full tour of the restaurant. He chatted to us for quite a while. A very nice man!
Next time we will be back for dinner.........and afternoon tea again!
If you are in Manchester, you must give it a try! Well worth a visit.

When we heard Liz Dawn (Vera) was part owner of The Old Grapes, located minutes from the Granada studios, we knew we had to go in. Each trip to Manchester would include a trip to the pub.

On the walls are lots of photos of Liz with Corrie cast mates and other celebrities.
We popped into the pub Dec. 20th, 2011 even though we had heard Liz had sold her share.
***Recently we were disappointed to hear that the photos of Liz and Corrie are no longer on the walls.***

In May 2007 our favourite Corrie 'Extra' Darran and his wife Eileen invited us to get together with them. The first place we went was to Bev Callard's (Liz McDonald's) pub in Salford called The White Horse . We had a drink and looked over Eileen & Darran's very recent wedding photos. Darran proposed to Eileen at the top of the CN tower the day before they attended our Sept. 2006 ping as special guests. They are a lovely couple!!!!!!!!
