A nice bar in an interesting building, opposite the Manchester Academy. Perfect for pre-show drinks and a nice choice of drinks.

Nestled on Oxford Road, this vibrant eatery offers a lively terrace perfect for sunny days and a diverse drinks menu featuring international beers. While the atmosphere provides a relaxed vibe, the culinary experience varies. Patrons note that while some dishes, like the highly praised dirty burger, shine, others such as the club sandwich and certain drinks may disappoint. Service is generally friendly and efficient, and the venue is spacious enough for easy seating. Ideal for casual bites or pre-show meals, it attracts a mix of students and locals but may not warrant a return visit for everyone.
