}}The Briton's Protection is a historic, grade II listed[1] public house in central Manchester, England. Various dates are given for its establishment; the pub's own website says 1806, though its bicentenary was not celebrated until 2011.[2] In any case, it was listed in Pigot and Dean's New Directory of Manchester & Salford for 1821 and 1822.[2]

The pub's name recalls its use as an army recruiting venue.[3] A set of murals inside the pub commemorates the Peterloo Massacre.[3]

The brick building, with a slate roof, was granted grade II listed status, offering protection from unauthorised alteration or demolition, in March 1990.[1] The largely intact 1930s interior has six public rooms.[1] Other notable architectural features include a terrazzo-tiled corridor floor, moulded ceiling, original 1930s urinals and the serving hatch through which people in the two rear rooms are served beer from the front bar.[4]

As well as serving real ale, it is known for offering a wide range of over 200 whiskies.[5]

For many years, the pub was operated as a Tetley house, [2] then by Punch Taverns, before being taken over in 2014 by an independent operator and refurbished.[6] The pub was voted 'Best Pub in Manchester' in the Pride of Manchester Awards in both 2008-2009 and 2009-2010.[5] It is on the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors.[4]
