Review from March 2008 sums it up. Lively enough but not mad busy at the weekend, possibly because it's hidden on a side street. Relaxed crowd and friendly staff.

No ale and there are much better bars in the area. The tiled basement is probably the venue's most interesting feature.

Every third Sunday of the month between 4 and 10 they have a Northern Soul bash, called the 'Beat Club' it gets really rammed for a Sunday afternoon, with a good atmosphere and proper Northern Soul tunes, with all the scooters parked outside. I was just drinking bottled beers last time i was in there. Would recommend it ,if your visting Manchester.

Last came in here a while back when it was quite a small cramped place with the big cord booths. Now opened up into a decent space playing quality soul on our visit. Downstairs looked like it could be a great venue in the evenings.

Well hidden little bar just off Tib Street. The decor has been changed a bit from the old cord days and it's now a bit more modern looking, still no real ales though. It's a pleasant enough atmosphere with Northern Soul followed by '80's tunes being played. A very mixed clientele ranging from students to a bunch of middle aged guys and some shoppers. The downstairs area is a bit bleak and gloomy during the daytime but has been known to be very lively at nights. It's OK if in the area.

Nice little bar in the Northern Quarter. Decor lives up to the bar's name! Excellent high backed booths. Has a downstairs area where there is often a DJ at the weekend. Good for arty types. Plenty of bottled beersbut no real ales
