Mike "Silver-Tongue"

Some say Mike "Silver-Tongue" was born fully grown behind the bar of a Manchester tavern, with a Rum and Coke in one hand and a football under the other. Others claim he once wrestled a troll for the last slice of pie — and won, with nothing but wit and a well-placed practical joke.

The truth? Somewhere in between.

At the age of 40, Mike is a husband, a father of three, and the heart and soul of Grim Tavern — a haven for adventurers, misfits, and storytellers. Before hanging his sword over the hearth, Mike roamed the wilds of customer service, battled the dragons of retail, and navigated the treacherous politics of the football terraces.

Now he presides over the Tavern like a benevolent king, serving drinks, spinning tales, and occasionally setting up harmless pranks that leave even the gruffest warriors laughing like children. His wisdom is hard-earned, his jokes well-timed, and his stories suspiciously more incredible with each telling.

So whether you’ve come for a pint, a laugh, or a legend, remember: at Grim Tavern, you're never just a guest — you're part of the story.

(And if your chair mysteriously creaks when you sit down... don’t worry. It's probably magic. Probably.)
