Best Bloody Marys in Manchester

This South American themed bar and restaurant have named their cocktail Bloody Maria in homage to their Latino concept. Mixing elements of the classic cocktail and spicier elements, this is a more refreshing take on the drink. Topped with a slice of lemon and a sprinkling of chilli flakes, make sure you order a side of water with it.

It comes in bottomless form at this Northern Quarter staple. The Pen & Pencil is a stripped back, stylish spot that will sort you out for the rest of the day. Grab a brunch plate, with the likes of avocado and feta gracing the menu, and sip on a classic bloody mary.

This Spinningfields spot has got the whole gang when it comes to bloody marys in Manchester. The sisters are a saucy bunch on the brunch menu, ranging from a virgin mary through to a Caesar mary, the latter of which comes topped with a prawn.

One of the prettiest restaurants in the biz, The Ivy is three floors of pure gorgeousness. We recommend bagging a spot on their garden-style rooftop terrace, which features an abundance of floral prints, and, for brunch, there's the classic bloody mary.

Brunch dreams come true at Cottonopolis, a converted warehouse space in the Northern Quarter. Given a twist, their version is called Red Snapper, and is a slinky mix of their own gin, tomato juice, siracha, and yuzu - and best of all - is topped with a tomato and bacon skewer.

Aussie brunch space, Federal is on hand with the tomato juice and a stick of celery when you most need a bloody mary. They've recently opened a second space in Deansgate, but the Northern Quarter bar is still a classic; grab a breakfast cocktail and plate of smashed avo on toast and you'll be right as rain in no time.
