This place has a solid reputation with in-the-know drinkers as one of the finest places for a late night drink near Deansgate.

Dark walls and gloomy lighting give it a that added discretion. which makes it all the more exciting. So, if you are looking for somewhere to enjoy a nice drink, away from the hustle and bustle of the streets of Manchester, this place is definitely worth looking for.
