Reviews of Atlas Bar
B. S.
Fantastic selection of gins and tonics. Great atmosphere and interior decor - the outside terrace is nice, too. Definitely pricey, you pay for the quality, but that goes for just about anything. Would definitely recommend for a tipple. My drink pictured is the “D” raspberry gin with fresh raspberries and elderberry tonic.
J. I.
Good location - right next to Deansgate train station. Always get served at the bar very quickly. Lots of seating. The drinks are on the pricey side. The clientele is very white-collar office worker in the early-to-late evenings, Monday-to-Friday. More of a meeting place, or a one-for-the-road place. Great for what it is though. Very clean.
J. S.
Grab a cup of coffee in this bar. Coffee smell so good and taste likely in coffee shop compile with Loust Biscoff (complimentary) such a lovely. Definitely staff is so nice for service.
B. D.
Great bar, excellent choice of drinks, love the atmosphere and the outdoor terrace is a classy addition, highly recommended
E. G.
Been here for both food and just drinks, great atmosphere, lovey outside patio and exceptional food. Would recommend for a relaxed place to catch up with family or friends. Great selection of drinks too!
A. d.
Very good cup of coffee here, chilled in the daytime. Excellent English breakfast too, for 8£. Would defo return. Only shame that the views are all of a busy road. Such is life, in English cities :/
R. H.
Wow, what a gin selection. Beautiful interior, friendly helpful staff and not too expensive. Brilliant location right under Deansgate train station.
Y. B.
Very deceiving, we thought it was a small bar, it goes right back and has a garden part too. Very nice and clean. Friendly staff too. Definitely go back here
S. M.
Had a lovely gin sat outdoors in the sunshine last weekend. Excellent service by the bar man named Jack. Will definitely be revisiting this cute little spot
R. K.
Great bar, great location, great atmosphere. Highly recommended for a quiet drink with friends.
Now the sun is shinning, sitting outside makes the visit even better.
J. P.
We had bottomless brunch which comes highly recommended, food was lovely, our glasses were never empty, attentive, polite and lovely staff ..... we will definitely be back x
N. T.
Great outdoor beer terrace for drinks on a sunny evening. Great to meet people again after such a long time.
N. B.
Great bar, tons of selection especially gins and staff are brilliant! Really enjoyed it in here and it's definitely one we'll return to when back in Manchester, love the paddle boards as we could try out new gins
P. M.
Always start the visit here as we come of the train, love sitting out the back and also has covers in case the weather goes against you always busy and the drinks and atmosphere make this our meeting point.
j.
HUGE variety of gins and a good selection of other alcoholic drinks. They also serve non alcoholic drinks and the food is amazing
J. a. Y.
Excellent bar at the bottom of Deansgate Station. Lovely pint of Beavertown neck oil before getting the train. 👍🏻
C. N.
Been a couple of times and had a great time. Shoutout to Izzy for making AMAZING amaretto sours, highly recommend!
K. T.
The only place you need for gin, with over 500 different gins and a new one introduced every week. The bar staff are extremely knowledgeable, pairing each one with the perfect tonic from a large variety. Today, we got tickets to their World Gin Day tasting session. There were some lovely local gins and enough samples to get us pleasantly tipsy. The bar owner was present and he is a nice chap too, with a genuine interest in gin.
J. P.
Excellent little var & the staff was really good & helpful 1 helped us get a taxi & put drinks into takeaway cup so we could take with us
R. L.
Had the most amazing experience in Alta's bar last week. I booked a gin tasting session for me and my friend and at £25 each I thought it was a bargain! The man who lead the session was so knowledgeable about gin and was genuinely passionate. I learnt so much about the history of gin and he was very easy going, letting us drink at our own pace and coming over for a chat and a new drink when we were ready. He also showed us some local rum as well which was a lovely extra touch. Thank you so much, I will definitely be visiting again, the amount of guns on offer is incredible!
S. C.
One of the largest gin menu's you'll see, that said the bar staff are friendly and will happily give you a recommendation gin and pairing. The layout and the deck are really nice.
T. H.
One of the best bars in the area if you love cocktails gin/ rum etc. Beer wise plenty to choose from and overall a great place to call in for a couple of drinks. Excellent bar staff and some great outdoor seating. Definitely recommend.
B.
Great little bar in Manchester, great service from the friendly staff and amazing drinks. Over 500 gins to choose from
T. M.
If you love Gin you'll love this place. Amazing assortment of Gins and tonics for you to choose from. Would recommend a visit so what are you waiting for get down there.
D. S.
Bar area and atmosphere was nice (was there on a Saturday) but toilets were a mess! Not sure if that was down to customers or a lack of regular toilet checks/cleans.
K. H.
In for lunch with my family last Thursday. Lovely food great service will definitely be going back.
C. M.
Great bar friendly staff well worth a visit when you're in Manchester
T. B.
Went for bottomless brunch, great selection of drinks and food and wonderful service
S. B.
Having lived round the corner and never having visited I thought it was time.... I wish I'd been sooner! I didnt realise they did such nice food and really reasonably priced.
Will definitely be back to try out the gin menu one evening.
S. C.
Lovely pub, plenty of room. Outside area covered if raining. Food is great value.
s. j.
Excellent Service, great beer garden. The food can be prepared a bit better.but overall, a good experience.
G. L.
So much gin variety, nice atmosphere, friendly staff and a nice place to be.
L. M.
Lovely bar, great outside area, brilliant choice of gin x
W. A.
One of the main stays of deansgate. The place oozes style and class. Been frequenting for well over 11 years now and it only gets better.
V. D.
Prime spot for Saturday afternoon drinking in a lovely rear garden for young/old couples or small groups from my experience 👌
J.
We love this place, first visited a few years ago and was amazed at the huge selection of gin. So while in Manchester recently we had to revisit and it’s just as good as we remember. Good choice of beers for non gin lovers but if you love gin this is the place for you. Lovely atmosphere and great service from welcoming staff 😊
T. D.
Took a while
The review was well deserved. In fact I was being kind. I should have given you one star. The place was not busy at all when we were there and our order "took a while" and then 5 minutes more for the knives and forks to arrive. If you put yourself out there for comment please have the good grace to accept it. Look in before you look out when you demand kindness and support from your paying customers and expecting more "helpful behaviour". Train you staff better and perhaps better reviews will follow!!!!
E. C.
Great atmosphere and amazing drinks selection!
S. F.
The food is excellent. Ordered breakfast here and it was great. They have a very good selection of beers and an incredible selection of gins, although it was far too early in the morning for me to sample any of them!
T. O.
Of all the gin joints in all the world... This is one of the cosiest and most characterful. Great decked outdoor space and great drinks. Beer selection not great but sufficient considering its primarily a gin joint.
J. G.
Had the most astonishing involvement with Alta's bar last week. I booked a gin tasting meeting for myself and my companion and at £25 every I thought it was a deal! The one who lead the meeting was so educated with regards to gin and was truly energetic. I found out such a huge amount about the historical backdrop of gin and he was extremely agreeable, allowing us to drink at our own speed and coming over for a talk and another beverage when we were prepared. He showed us some neighborhood rum too which was a dazzling additional touch. Many thanks, I will visit once more, the measure of weapons on offer is amazing!
K. B.
Tucked in next to Deansgate train station this bar from the outside may not seem much, but enter inside and you will find a pub with a nice atmosphere, outdoor seating & friendly staff. They even do s good cappuccino. Well worth a visit.
J. A.
What a bar. What a selection of gin and what welcoming staff! 10/10 we loved it.
L. Y.
Good food for brunch and lunch with big portions and very reasonably priced. The atmosphere is very chic and nice, the staff are friendly as well. They only serve snacks in the evening, so for meals is just breakfast and lunch. Overall a nice trendy bar with good quality food and a chic atmosphere
A.
From the moment I walked in, the bouncers were friendly and welcoming, the interior was great and the place was nice and clean, and the staff were great! I have no complaints with this place at all!
E. A.
Love this place. Staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. Really friendly doorman. Welcoming venue with vast selection of gins. Gem of a place in Manchester city centre.
S. D.
Great cocktails and the staff were very nice
N. N.
Absolutely wonderful! Staff are welcoming and friendly, all social distancing procedures are strictly followed, food is amazing, prices are good and the drinks are phenomenal, their gin selection is no joke! The beer garden is a great cosy place to sit and enjoy a drink or two for a few hours and have a nice chat with a couple of friends. 10/10 would go there again!
L. K.
One of the best places in Manchester if you like gin! Huge selection.
Good atmosphere.
Had lunch recently and food was great and very quick service.
M. M.
An amazing gin bar which has at least 300 bottles of different varieties. Great atmosphere and right on the tram line. Prices not cheap but if you're a gin lover this could be the place for you!
S. H.
A great atmosphere and you're spoilt for choice of gins. The staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable. One of my favourite bars in Manchester.
H. W.
Atlas is a time-honoured Mancunian staple, and I'm always happy to visit for drinks if I'm nearby.
D. M.
Lovely selection of not just gin, but draught also. I would come back soon!
D. L.
Loved it here! The staff are so lovely and chirpy. Got an inside table as no outside space left but then the staff asked if I'd like to be put on a list if one comes available, i didn't even have to ask. Prices great and the food was amazing!! Definitely would go again!
K.
Massive gin selection if that's your drink. Small but nice outside area. Friendly staff and loads of great drinks to pick from. Great bar.
B. H.
Great place for a pint to catch up with friends!
K. C.
Great breakfast, reasonable prices.
R. C.
Always welcoming whether I go in for a pint of beer or glass of water. I really like the staff and on an occasion in past they allowed me to use the beer garden to do a model photo shoot. I rate that they tried to help a local creative. Thanks Atlas Staff and Owners.
A. P.
Great staff, nice and comfy.
G. S.
Atmosphere great. Sadly on the day we went they had ran out of mint for their cocktails! It was only 4.30pm. Not great. Other than that all was just great.
A. H.
Nice bar and wasn’t to busy which, was good. Plenty of seats to sit down especially if you wanted food. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
M. G.
Great bar, like the coffee ☕ in the morning
C.
Popped in for a coffee very friendly and welcoming and the coffee was to die for!
C. C.
Lovely service....need Gordon's gin though! Nice atmosphere. I keep going back so must be good. Food is typical bar food and that's nice as well.
C. G.
Very handy bar for Deansgate station. Interesting decor inside and out. Good place to call for a drink. Busy, friendly and clean.
L. P.
Fantastic selection of gin, if you're not a gin drinker don't worry. Atlas has you covered too! With all kinds of spirits, wines and beers.
If you're a lager drinker check out the Brixton they've got!
M.
Best gin bar in Manchester but also great beers. Staff lovely and friendly. Would recommend. Check out the gin of the week!
J. F.
Well established comfortable bar with quality drinks choice. Well placed for tram and train stations.
C. H.
Gintastic. Nice outdoor space and knowledgeable staff
S. S.
Nice place, they have amazing food. I recomend the breakfast.
N. H.
Nice bar but very busy
D. S.
Nice vibe and cosy heated outdoor area for smokers/vapours
K.
Lovely outdoor shelter, nice and sturdy enough to withstand the most brutal Manchester weather. Heaters (bonus points), a fire pit, comfy seating, pleasant staff and the most lovely doorman. Really cosy atmosphere, the only downsides would be the lack of variety on the drinks menu. For example there were only 3 types of rum on the menu.
We also tried the chicken basket and it was kind of sad and overpriced for what it was (£12 for a few pieces of chicken and some chips). The chicken was rock solid crumb coated, dry and kinda tasteless 😭
Also the app to order was a nightmare, it took multiple tries to pay for an order, but we got there in the end!
For a first outing during the easing of lockdown it was a good, solid trial run. Atmosphere was good, I felt safe and socially distanced. I even took my coat off on one of the wettest and windiest days of the year ... I'd venture there again.
M. L.
Nice and spacious bar that's been about for as long as I can remember.
The bar staff and even the doormen were polite and respectful.
The outside seating is comfortable and relaxed.
The only reason I have only passed 4 stars is the price of the drinks. Most pints are twice the price of the identical pint in a Wetherspoons pub.
j.
Nice bar with a relaxed atmosphere. The decor is really nice and Manchester themed. They have a vast, I mean vast selection of gins, which I think is great! Definitely worth checking out. They have an outside area at the back too which closes at 11pm I think. Not sure about wheelchair accessible entrances though as the place has a lot of steps inside and to the front door.
v. m.
Very nice clean bar. You order drinks via QR code (like most places right now). The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. It's a nice chilled atmosphere with seating inside and out
S. M.
Good table service and considered covid layouts. Toilet situation is a bit cramped requiring to press an exit button after washing your hands. Other than that, felt very safe and a lovely atmosphere. Thanks for a great evening!
K. H.
Amazing choice of gins and tonic. Lovely outside seating area.
T. B.
One of my favourite bars in Manchester, I always look forward to coming here on a night out. Nice beer garden out the back too.
R. F.
Really well thought through Covid measures. Enjoyed a cheeky Sunday gin feeling very safe.
J. B.
Excellent friendly and comfortable bar with a beer garden. Reasonably priced as well. Really enjoyed it.
S. M.
Nice chilled bar, plenty of seating, friendly bar staff
p. s.
Great bar with an excellent selection of gins and nice staff. Sat in a window seat and watched the world go by on Deansgate. Nicely placed next to the train station, so you can start your night or finish it there for the train
C. G.
Great bar especially if you like your Gin , massive selection , nice open terrace to the rear if the weather's good .
C. A.
Simply a cool trendy and hip bar located in the Deansgate Locks.
In regularly come here for drinks with a few of my friends. There is a beer garden with Smoking and non smoking areas.
Haven't tried food there yet, but they have a good selection of beers on tap. Sadly none local, the range of spirits and gins is good too.
T. M.
Fantastic atmosphere on a Saturday night around 22:00-23:00, very friendly bouncers and prompt service. Drinks aren't overpriced, but be aware of exactly what you're ordering if you do go for a select Gin. Found myself frequenting this bar a lot more than others as it doesn't have that pretentious Deansgate atmosphere about it. Must try.
Y. H.
The staff here are just bloody lovely! Saved what would have been an awful night. Cannot recommend enough, everyone is so so kind and helpful - really makes such a difference. Just a lovely atmosphere and really lovely decor
H. W.
Gin paddle and cocktails
W. M.
This place has the best bar staff ever, nothing is to much trouble when it comes to your drink. You are treated like your the only person in the bar..........now that's service.
Great selection of gin and malt whisky, you want a cocktail this is the place.t

T. P.
Great place, great staff and great drinks.
C. C.
Stopped in last night for a cheeky Ginuary drink - accidentally had a few more than I originally intended because it was so nice!
Lovely staff, great selections, always seems clean, and the fresh flowers on the tables are a lovely touch.
j. i.
Without a doubt in the top 3 bars in Manchester City Centre and I would I have drank and eaten in nearly all of them
The staff are attentive, efficient, friendly and proffer. The clientelle match the atmosphere created by the staff
They have excellent security staff, never seen even skirmish in the bar on any visit
I went in there a few weeks ago ordered a drink the guy served me and said you are a regular it's on the house
Let me assure that in a City Centre venue that is as rare as MCFC European Trophy
I rarely review any bars, restaurants or clubs because it's very difficult to find a venue that hits most of my expectations
I have managed, operated and owned bars, restaurants and nightclubs all of which were outstanding
Because of this I am a great customer or your worst nightmare
A very close friend of mine used to own Atlas Bar
It was good then and it's better now
E. s.
Loved the backdrop and the padio outdoor. The bartender was cool and manager went in to ask in if we have been served. As I Indian I did catch a eye of a few on ordering a pint worth 7 quid.... Bet ppl were jealous there. But if you looking for good food and don't mind the looks it's a good place.
d. m.
A huge selection of gins, and not all expensive. They seem to have weekly specials on ..er .. weekly.
V. I. M.
Good selection of wine and beer and it is very nice inside and has a very good and spacious outside place. It is on the other side of Deansgate near the Hilton . The atmosphere is good and so are the staff. Also they serve meal if you you want to eat.
C. W.
Great vibes and amazing gin!
D. B.
Great selection of gin
S. M.
Nice atmosphere, bouncers and bar staff were nice to us, seating was adequate, for the size of the place and drinks were well priced for the surround. Enjoyed the visit here, liked how the music wasn't over the top it was kind of chilled, good place for a drink with a group of friends looking to chat too.
R. C.
Lovely bar underneath Deansgate Station. Super friendly staff and some amazing gins. A must visit x
D. A.
Popped in last night to kill time because I was early for an appointment - I could have stayed all evening! It was a cold, wintery evening and Atlas Bar was like a haven. Warm and welcoming with a little candle on each table. I had a big mug of hot tea and sat facing the bar which was fabulously well stocked. Great place!
R. S.
Simply the best gin bar in the world. Menu on the website with over 500 gins! I’m incredibly lucky to live nearby so I visit it quite often. 500 gins can be very confusing and difficult to choose from but ALAS! The staff are incredibly and are well trained help you pick just the right gin for you and pair it with an appropriate tonic! Just tell them about your preference flavour-wise and they will make you very happy :)
If you live in Manchester or just passing through, this place is a must! Don’t miss out on the best gin out there!
Also they got decent snacks, goat cheese pie with peppers for life haha.
M. D.
Nice enough bar that's been around for ages and goes through peaks in popularity quite regularly. The plus of serving hoegaarden makes it worth a visit, but increasingly filled with corporate suits - surprising given the nasty wine bars dotted around they could pick instead. Ah well.
S. D.
Great visit. Bar man gave us recommendations on what gin to have as so many to choose from. Was a tad on the expensive side but if you like gin and trying something new then this is the place for you!
A. S.
I absolutely love the industrial feel of this place. You may need a while to decide what you want as they have so many gins to choose from! 😀 The beer garden is amazing under the railway bridge. I visit every time I'm in Manchester. 🍸
S. G.
Great service and amazing Gins.
D. D.
Great find,, defo come again
k. p.
Really nice staff here including security at entrance. Helpful with my order with non alcohol drinks they can really spice up a nice drink for you here .Great atmosphere
V. J.
Brilliant Gin bar. Serves a massive collection of great and varied gins. Staff were knowledgeable and there was also other stuff on offer too like beer and cider for those wanting a different tipple. A decent amount of seating and a long bar for those drinking near the bar without being too in the way.
J. T.
Impressive gin selection. Highly skilled bar staff, happy to pick out the perfect gin for your taste. Very expensive, but not unreasonable for an upmarket gin bar beside a railway station, and easily worth it. Gin of the week is a good deal for the price conscious.
R. M.
Always an occasion, great staff and service. One of a handful of bars I NEVER miss out. Covid precautions are thorough and service remains great. Hope you guys are OK, see you soon!
O. B.
Disclaimer: Reviewing this as a cafe, not a bar.
+ Nice place
+ Great location
+ Affordable food and drink
+ Friendly staff
+ Free wifi
+ Clean toilets
+ Plug sockets
+ Loads of space
+ Great tunes
- Fairly average coffee (had quite a milky flat white)
- Not really much of a cafe atmosphere due to the size
Overall probably much better as a bar than a cafe, but it's great that it does operate as a cafe and it is a lovely place. The four star is largely down to my personal preference regarding what I look for in an ideal cafe
S. T.
I organised a hen party at Atlas bar and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. We sat outside on their lovely terrace area, did a gin tasting session that was full of interesting information but also fun and we had some delicious fresh food. Highly recommend!
S. S.
This place is great if you enjoy a gin. As many gins as one could dream of, but they are not served with ideal/suggested accompaniment, is a massive let down.
Also we were not the first to not to be charged for our drinks straight away. Huge cock up by the staff. It was about an hour later when they realised. We had got another drink by then. So the idea drink up, and go to next pub comes swiftly to mind!
L. F.
If u fancy a delicious cocktail.. this is the place! I visited during the summer, outside garden is just beautiful, secluded from the city noice. Loved the place and would come again. It was mid week so it wasn't very busy but that's exactly what we needed. Staff polite, service quick.
M. G.
A nice bar in the Knott Mill area, it's a busy place under the Deansgate railway station, so the rumble of a train every few minutes is noticeably. Don't let this put you off, the beer is okay but with over 400 find to try you'll not be wanting any beer anyway. The outside seating is a sun trap and the inside is cool, with other bar in close proximity.
M. H.
Always enjoy a G&T in Atlas, especially the house doubles for only £5! This place is a Manchester institution.
J. C.
Great location, friendly staff and good food. We took the tram into Deansgate, Manchester . After our shopping we were both hungry so when we noticed the Atlas bar we decided to give it a go. No regrets, greeted by a friendly bar maid who took our order and later delivered to our table. Coffee and food were excellent and the price resonable. Will definitely use more often.
f. c.
Highly recommended. Relaxing patio area.
D. P.
Went there cause of the outside space thinking we could smoke but apparently we couldn't..
Edit: I don't understand what smoking has to do with Covid, I understand my review might be unhelpful to you, however it will be helpful to other smokers who might want to come there, and this is the point of reviews at the end of the day.
S.
Always enjoy going here, sort of a go to place. Often pop in for a coffee whether I'm staying in or on the move, breakfast menu is good and a nice atmosphere. Obviously a great place for gin.
D. L.
Great food great service and great gins. Never been disappointed when visiting. Love the variety of the gins available
T. H.
Harsh to give an honest review as we never got in, nevertheless some friends of mine got in and said it was amazing. Will be returning hopefully when covid restrictions lift a little.
M. W.
Fantastic venue.
I didn't count them but the Bar Manager told me they stock 300 + gins from around the world. The back bar was rammed with stock.
Great choice of draught lagers too!
They had a bar menu and as I was starving I ordered lamb kofta. It was fantastic and reasonably priced too!
Great bar, you should try it!
A. F.
Have been going here since it opened nearly 20years ago. Still has the best range of guns in Manchester and staff that know how and what are the best choice of mixers and adjoining herbs and spices. Can get a little packed at weekends but the outside beer garden is sufficiently large to take up the overflow. Not necessarily a place for kids but being adjacent to Castle field locks and canal system there is always something to do for family entertainment.
J. H.
Took the wife who loves gin. Not a gin drinker personally but would certainly recommend a visit. Large selection of Gina and various tonics. Staff were knowledgeable and make good recommendations. Great bar
L. R.
A very nice little bar just next to Deansgate train station.
It's great to pop in for a quiet drink during the week and it's not usually too busy. Also has a great outdoor area with nice comfy seating for those hot days.
Come here at the weekends and it's very lively but plenty of staff so you don't have to wait around long for a drink.
A. L.
Good and spacious with an open beer garden at the back. The venue is quite long with cosy private corners. Nice and simple decor definitely makes this place feel very relaxed and easy going. Was here after work on a week day so it wasn't busy.
K. S.
Lovely atmosphere, right next to the tram stop so ideal meeting venue for people with difficulties. Staff were very helpful when our small group turned into a big group of people with Parkinsons!
J. D.
Basically a nice pub with a great outdoors seating area for sunny days. Or rather, for the one sunny day that we get over summer.
Would be nice if they did a bigger selection of food than the snacky stuff currently available.
G. W.
Nice bar,
J. C. S.
A nice bar, with friendly chatty staff and a good range of drinks with an excellent range of gin and tonic. Top tip is to visit in the summer, get yourself the G&T of the week, which is usually well priced (I've found them to usually be £4) for a high quality product served in a goblet. Take your gigantic drink outside to their garden and enjoy the evening sun whilst catching up with some friends. The bar is next to Deansgate Train and Tram Station so easy to get to and well placed for drinks when you're not drinking.
C. W.
Loved the beer garden . The ploughmans sharing platter was delicous .the staff were lovely too. Highly recommended x
M. G.
This is a gorgeous bar with a great atmosphere. The bar is well stocked and the staff are friendly. The decor is very stylish. There is also a terrace to sit outside. Located in deansgate just as you enter the city. There is also great bars across the road and a tramline.
G. B.
Top bar all the best gin mixers you can think about staff are amazing Bouncers on the door are proper Bouncers how Bouncers supposed to be be respectful don't go on like the bad and don't look down at you very helpful defo would tell friends to go to this bar
M. G.
Very nice outdoor seating area and friendly bar staff. The bar food is okay (mainly scotch eggs!), but would be good if they offered a more diverse range of food to nibble on.
M. W.
Great place for drinks, nice area to sit out in the back.
J. E. W.
Nice bar, good view in the beer garden, but no smoking.
L. B.
We love atlas bar. Our office is round the corner so we pop in often. Only down side is they don't allow dogs at any time so it's dropped from and 4 to a 3 star rating
A.
Good pub, decent range of beer. I like the outside area as it has heaters and you're free to smoke. Plenty of space and really comfy seats outside.
k. k.
Really cool little bar on the edge of Deansgate. This is the first time I've been and I would definitely come again. They have a nice outside bit too which has a decent sun trap. They charge 50p with card payments under £10 so make sure you bring cash.
P. M.
Nice place for Sunday Brunch
L. H.
Great, long standing bar always popular, especially in the summer. Situated right next to deansgate which is pretty perfect for departing or arriving drinks in town. Good stop off before heading into castle field or down into deansgate.
H. C. b. K.
The bar itself was nice, busy atmosphere and friendly staff but the toilets let it down, hence the 3 star review. They were very dirty, the smell was awful, everyone was talking about it.
A. H.
Brilliant service, first time and the two guys behind the bar were extremely cheerful and knowledgeable. The breakfast was outstanding.
Definitely, recommend this place.
S. G.
Great atmosphere and cocktails, a train line runs over the top and creates a very cool thunderous sound inside the bar, at the weekend not the best place if your looking for quiet conversation.
M. N.
They claim to have 300+ gins. And you will be surprised to find it's only that much looking at the shelves behind the bar.
Outside seating at the back is perfect for a sunny day
J. H.
Fantastic experience. Not cheap, mind you, but Phil was our guide to the world of gin and helped us to find sensastional gin and tonic drinks. I'm happy I stumbled upon this place.
L. P.
Very stylish bar, with clocks above the bar that represent times around the world. Live DJ's add to the venue's experience and plenty of space for various sized groups to meet and hang out. Prices reasonable for location near to the Locks.
K. G.
Surprisingly cosy bar given its 'industrial' look boasting a selection of over 300 Gins. Also serves a great breakfast at a reasonable price just don't expect it to arrive quickly , took a while although the service was good.
G. G.
Nice pub/restaurant. Nice selection of food. Friendly staff. Worth a visit. Speaks for itself when you arrive. Great outdoor area
S. L.
Nice place was quiet at first then later on it was packed nice seating outside as well
C. K.
Nice pub
R. S.
Great bar with genuine passion for quality drinks. Gin is a speciality but great range of others too. Also does food handmade on premises. Win win.
j. n.
Cool little gin bar, lovely outdoor seating. Great selection of drinks (especially gin of course). Within walking distance of the locks & central Manchester.
T. B.
Love this place. Great choice of gins. Always take friends there who haven't been before. Friendly staff.
M. G.
Every time I've been here I've had great service and a good atmosphere
A. C.
One of my favourite bars in Manchester. Right by deansgate tram station. Very chilled and relaxed. Lots of beer choices and an amazing choice of gins.
T. G.
Surprised how nice this place is and how big. Great friendly service and deffo visiting again when back in Manchester
A. P.
GREAT PLACE. Good atmosphere. Fabulous Gin collection of which I sampled a few😁. The bar staff were very knowledgeable about the Gins.
B.
What a jewel in a wonderful city. All I can say is it's a Gin paradise. Lovely surroundings and nice heated outdoor area. Could do with having food on the menu....Just for a nibble
J. W.
Been a few times on my lunch - usually its best to pre-order food before you go and means you get to sit back and enjoy watching the people walking by or being in the beer garden at the back in the sun! Food is very tasty and well cooked! would defiantly recommend the pies!
O. A.
Gin of the week is a great way to expand your knowledge base of gins and lets you try some you might not have even heard of. Also the falafel scotch egg is really nice! :)
B. M.
Nice bar with a decent beer garden. Fab for an after work drink with friends or to kick off a day session. Good selection of gins and the staff are always friendly.
C. H.
Lovely atmosphere and great choice of drinks. Only stopped in for one but wanted to stay longer. Planning my next visit already
M. M.
Huge selection of gins available and for those not into it but still want to join friends and family they also stock a variety of beers and ales to enjoy
K. S.
Nice bar located centrally in Manchester. Probably a good place to start the night.
B. C.
Great drinks and service
G. C.
My wife and I went for the first time last night and just wanted to say what an amazing bar this is the staff were very helpful and knowledgable about the massive selection of gins they have and bent over backwards to assist us
B. G.
Lovely bar will return. Great view of Manchester run
A. J.
Great place for a few drinks after work. I'm a gin and tonic gal, and they have a great selection of gins available.
K. U.
Good chilled out bar with outdoor seating area
C. 7.
Great bar. I used to go in the nineties and was glad to find it still well run and thriving. Service was good and quick despite it being packed on a Saturday night.
M. D.
Great bar it's a good friendly atmosphere
B. W.
Not great for disabled visitors. The door staff were brilliant but there was nobody available to help me carry more than one glass despite me needing a walking aid.
M. P.
Cosy bar with a great outdoor space (with heaters). If you like Gin, this is your place - they have a weekly special Gin for £5.
They also have great music.
F. L.
Lovely bar, great selection of drinks
j. j.
Pleasant enough place, unusual design. However, the guy making our cocktails didn't have a clue and it took ages. The beer afterwards was quick enough though!
S. S.
Gin heaven right outside Deansgate station. Knowledgeable bar staff, good atmosphere and a great outdoor area when weather suits. Also serves beers, ciders and wine. Recommended
S. C.
Great service and good location for Deansgate station. Will definitely be back XXX
A. F.
Always busy but never rowdy. The selection of gins makes me feel like a kid in a candy store and they always showcase the newest of gins.
M. E.
Interesting vibe, love the rattle as the trains pass overhead. Decent selection of drinks unless you're into Gin in which case I suspect it's amazing.
M. B.
Good selection of drinks, especially if you like gin. The service was good. We are the garden party BBQ, and the only let down was the quantity or lack of. I was expecting an extra item for the price.
S. P.
6pm on a saturday. Group of 3. 2 of us ordered draft lager it when it came it was off, very sulphurous smell. I worked in a pub for 2 years and know this can happen. I went to the bar after having 2 mouthfulls (sometimes you can just about stand it) The person on duty told me and my friend we were wrong and there was nothing wrong with it. He wouldnt swap it and refused a refund. What a completely terrible attitude. We all walked out the pub and will never return. This is a terrible way to run a business and I can only imagine the company was in financial difficulty.
I. S.
Ok but £5 -75 p for a pint of ale was a bit steep
e. C.
Amazing bar i like it saffet is very friends and nice 😊
W. R.
More gins than you could ever drink in your life time of being alive on this planet.
S. B.
Phenomenal selection of gin. Great friendly staff. Got my gin passport so I'll definitely be frequenting in the future
D. F.
This place has the biggest selection of Gins in the city, and generally speaking the staff know their way around them. The only down side is that it's pretty loud in there.
s. o.
Good vibes, pleas at atmosphere and great menu. Tad pricey
B. P.
Popular place to drop in for a coffee, a beer or to eat. Excellent service and cheerful staff. Terrace at the back is a bonus when it's sunny.
S.
Nice bar! Great seating area at the back too... its a bit jungle like with lots of greenery for a city centre bar.
L. W.
Lovely place, so many gins to try😍 great atmosphere. Helpful and friendly staff.
H. M.
Fantastic bar to chill out and very friendly staff. Manager Patrick was also very helpful and continuously asked if we had everything we needed.
C. Á.
Nice terrace, always packed out though. Very slow service and unclean toilets. Despite this I would recommend having a look if you fancy a beer under the sun
M. W.
Love this bar. Gin heaven, knowledgeable staff and a south facing covered beer garden!
C. M.
Lovely bar. Door man was brilliant excellent banter
S. G.
It's nice for a drink. Good selection of drinks available. There is a beer garden, but I haven't been in. Usually a good crowd in there.
R. C.
Nice and bright with large windows. No cask beer but a nice atmosphere when not too busy. Note that food is not served all day
S.
Amazing friendly helpful team, outstanding selection of gin, Great food & Good Coffees... You can't go wrong..
G.
Great bar, fantastic selection of drinks. Nice outside area.
b. h.
Not a great gin drinker by any means, however the bar more than lives up to their claim of stocking 80+ gins, the staff were more than happy to recommend a type for the uninitiated
n. w.
Very close to deansgate train station. Great atmosphere.
C. M.
Great coffee in a morning, excellent food and fab atmosphere and drinks at night. Try and work your way through the huge gin selection!
G. B.
Friendly staff and right by my station for the journey home. As everywhere in Manchester, drinks ain't cheap, but nice friendly atmosphere!

G. H.
Busy but good friendly and speedy service. Would have been 5 star but only table left was next to red hot radiator. Phew😓
C. M.
brilliant outdoor space in the summer, BBQs are very popular here and it is available for events.
Inside feels quite tight and the stairs to the toilets upstairs can be tricky.
V. G.
Amazing bartender named Val such a genuine person went out of her way to ensure our drinks were propper
and timely. Would recommend 10 out of 10.
M. C.
Great bar with a great atmosphere, Can always rely on the gin of the day to be a fantastic choice and a great place to start or finish a night.
A. D.
Quite possibly the best thing about this place is the beer garden, a sort of balcony round the back over looking the south side of Manchester next to the train tracks, the old style Manchester map décor is lovely and they have a great selection of liquors to boot.
S. J.
You can get some simple breakfast here. Not very special. They have a very large gin collection so if you like gin this is the place for you.
C. K.
Nice selection of gins here (both local and other) and perfect for an after work drink or three with the girls.
A. H.

A. B.
Been in 4 times now to be told the corned beef hash had just sold out...at 12 o'clock, must be popular for brunch! 😉 The vegetarian breakfast is a winner
P. G.
A funny one really. Modern certainly yet it is a mancunion public house institution and has just always been here tading as the Atlas for decades.
Marvellous outdoor area and covered/lit/heated for chilly evenings. Nestled almost against Deansgate station, it is a brill & convenient pub to call in whilst waiting for the next (or maybe next after one 🍻😀) train home to Urmston.
Recommended.
P. C.
Gin bar second to none. Great friendly knowledgeable (about gin) staff. Great atmosphere and brilliant beer garden in the summer.
