We accidentally stumbled into this place as the vibes were immaculate from outside! No queue, and very friendly bouncers. The tunes were amazing with early 2000s which my partner and I sang at the top of our lungs to. Plenty of space to dance and easy/quick to be served at the bar. Two gorgeous drag queens went around with a trolley and they were both very funny! Gender neutral toilets were refreshing to see, maybe in need of a spruce up but typical for any club! Will definitely visit again!

S. B.

Great bar on canal street, great music, dj , drag act party atmosphere, toilets are unisex , busy packed pud but cheaper drinks than a lot of places on the city. 2 brandy and cokes and a Budweiser for less than £15 however can of Bud was warm probably because it was packed and it hadn't been chilled long enough. Outside area with covered areas. Would definitely visit again

We have been there several times. This bar is so friendly and the service is impeccable. Staff are friendly and music is amazing!! If you want to have a wonderful night just go there and you will enjoy the shows and music. Thank you for the shows and nights =) see you later!!

S. K.

Went on a Saturday night, no entry fee which is great and reasonably priced drinks. Music was hit and miss and 'pop' seemed a bit ambiguous. Nice selection of drag queens if you wanted to see some. Uni-sex toilets a bit cramped and not much space to queue for them. Overall a good night was had.

D. A.

Good fun city centre bar playing pop music. Decent drinks, prices are reasonable for location. Felt safe the whole time. Progressive bar Would return if on another night out in Manc

C. W.

Amazing bar! AVOID “G A Y” at all costs and come here or to another inclusive bar on the street! The staff at bar pop are friendly & their entertainment is amazing 🤩 we will definitely return to this amazing place!!!! AVOID “G A Y” if your reading this review

Went to the Drag Cabaret Show with bottomless brunch and had a great time. Very generous with the drinks and fun entertainment, loved it!

T. B.

Very friendly bar with great atmosphere. Staff are super helpful and good people. Returned my lost Bag. Life savers. Good karma to you all. 👍

T. C.

Love this place. Staff are 12/10 including the bouncers dj’s and drag performers.. always a great night whenever I visit. This place knows how to put on a show recommend it to everybody. A place I will visit every time I’m in Manchester 100%

P. A.

All five of these stars go to the gorgeous and hilarious drag queen at the door, Robyn! My sister, friends and I were creasing before we even got through the door. The music is pretty decent but the main attraction are the queens both at the door and DJing! I'd go every weekend if I could afford it.

H. R.

Amazing Halloween shows 3 nights in a row! Splendid job BarPop entertainment team!

D. G.

Friendly bar! Good drag shows, welcoming to absolutely everyone. Atmosphere is very party centric and great. Look out for the airplane trolley being pushed around by the drag queens selling poppers, drinks and snacks. Can be a little too hen party, but still friendly. Drinks not too pricey, cocktails are okay too, premixed, but still good. Basically, highly recommended.

R. G.

Quite nice drinks here yesterday. Pretty pricey but the service was excellent and the music from inside the venue was fun and created a good vibe. Definitely ask which drinks are long drinks as the short ones can be consumed in a gulp. We weren’t offered a good menu which looking at the social media looks great but maybe next time

S. B.

Had a really disappointing experience at Via so come here instead and they were great and really accommodating.

Z. P.

Went to see the Drag Show downstairs. Amazing!! Jackie Love is my fave xxx

J. J.

Fabulous time every time I visit whether it's for a quick pint or an evening out. John, Antonio & the team make you feel very welcome every time, the security team are friendly, polite & make you feel safe inside and outside the venue. The management team & entertainment team are phenomenal, with friendly, funny entertainers such as Jackie & Robbie who always make your visit so much fun even during these trying times of Covid. Honestly cannot recommend Bar Pop! Enough. The venue is thoroughly spotless, the music is fabulous & there is a conscious effort to raise awareness & funds for local charities too, you couldn't ask for a better night out in Manchester's Gay Village

J.

Great place to come for some midweek drinks. The place seemed lively, fun and well decorated! Thanks for a fun night!

A. P.

Great bar and very friendly bar staff. Door staff are also nice, which isn't always the case at some other venues. We probably come here too often. Plenty of outdoor seating too and table service at the moment. You currently need to become a member to get in (free), but only one of your party needs to sign up and this can be done really quickly and easily on your phone.

D. F.

That was my first time on Canal st, but this place is the best ever, that climate, that people, that vibe. After party I'm in love and recommending this club everyone.

S. C.

Nice, fun atmosphere. Toilets weren't great though.

T. T.

We enjoyed a couple of rounds of drinks on a warm Saturday afternoon. The prices are a little dear, but the service was spot-on. On a Corona virus note, they’re incredibly on-the-ball: it’s perhaps the most Covid-conscious bar I’ve visited. However, it is difficult to distance in the toilets. You sign up to free membership and check in that way. We were shown to our table and only encouraged to move when smoking or going to the toilet. Orders are taken from the table- we were looked after by the delightfully savage Jackie.

A. M.

Had the best night on Saturday at my daughters hen party, the guys who work here are fantastic, cannot thank you enough for the best time had by all, I highly recommend a visit to Bar Pop, absolutely amazing thanks again all.

J. H.

I really liked it. It was fun as never before. Great karaoke. There are promotions and you can get free cocktails and a private room for an hour. To do this, you need to register on 909gay,com create a profile and just show it to the administrator. I got lucky. I will come again.

N. C.

Bar pop is one of my favourite bars on canal Street. Always a good atmosphere and great staff. Lost my phone in there this weekend and would like to praise the staff for being extremely helpful. The phone was found and they kindly kept it to one side and rang me when they'd located it. Thanks guys

Just got back from an evening there. Absolutely great night, the drag acts were good, not Jinx Monsoon, but still great. Locals were banging out tunes in a karaoke competition, which was a really good mix of singers and bathroom singers, all having a great time. Popped out for food between 9 and 10, then went back for more. Really friendly people who couldn't care less who, what or why you are who you are. Well worth a visit.

H. T.

We had a fantastic evening here last night. The show was superb, and a brilliant finale to boot. We'll done to the whole team 🤩🤩

J. F.

Full disclosure I used to work here so am biased . But has a great atmosphere really friendly staff and m9st importantly welcomes all regardless of anything ❤

E. C.

Went in couple of times during pride 16 for drinks. Bar staff friendly and decent music. But bank holiday Monday drag acts what a night to finish pride. Belinda was my favourite so funny and crowd friendly with banter. Good place apart from downstairs when the get over crowded they send you down stairs little dark basement with small bar and music that's it. But I j8st pipped back when they where electing people in middle section.

S.

Been here every week on thursdays to watch DragRaceUK and I can honestly say Annabelle, the drag host has made this first season for me. Faultless with the build up, polite yet witty and witty yet welcoming. A great bar, an amazing team, but still manages to be respectful to its guests. It is the heart of canal st and I hope it stays that way.

E. G.

Show is amazing staff amazing bouncers little bit rude

C. M.

Always fun, always a nice crowd...definitely the best location on Canal Street. John, one of the owners, brings incredible energy to the place and his staff is always pleasant and professional. I strongly recommend this bar if you are in Manchester.

V. C.

One of the first gay venues I tried, when I moved to Manchester. They made me feel so welcome and showed me an awesome time. I've been in Manchester 2 years now and Bar Pop gets regular visits from me. My friends and colleagues love it too.

P. J.

Spent some lovely evenings here with friends. Well managed with friendly staff, one of the most welcoming places on Canal Street.

Friendly bar. Lovely to have a pint and chat whislt watching the world go by.

N. B. (.

It’s a decent sized venue and caters to the aimed clientele, which is of an older audience/those who like cabaret and cheesy classics. The toilets are a shambles, every time.

S. H.

Great time at the bingo. Excellent host. Such fun!! Very COVID secure (as the saying goes) ❤️

m. L.

Amazing place brilliant service again brilliant staff and the perfect venue I do have some complaints I think the prices of alcohol and draught beers are a little expensive and the cans of beers very expensive they could do with dropping a few prices on things unfortunately but again everything you could wish for but apart from prices amazing place.
