A Manchester institution at ground level (and below), the pub and restaurant called "Sams Chop House", which makes much of its history as the favoured watering hole of artist L S Lowry. They have a lifesize bronze of him at the bar. The building also houses a rather superior Thai restaurant, and offices above. This is a grade II listed building, called there "Princes Chambers".
