Visited the bar pop establishment called Divas (in the basement). Was a small venue which focused on karaoke, overseen by one of two drag acts. The atmosphere was good, the singing not so much.

biphobic: im a bisexual woman: theen who i came with were also bisexual but treated like intruders within a queer space. this was very disappointing. we were all made to feel unwelcome in the bar and told to leave once we had entered the smoking area. the space was very empty when we entered yet they still didnt want us there (although we bought drinks) honestly not worth the stress - go to filthy gorgeous at brewers on a Tuesday instead.

They were very unwelcoming in there, harassed me and my friends, kicked us out for no reason when we went to go and smoke a cigarette. DO NOT GO HERE. angry redhead female bouncer found a problem with everything

We've been a fan of Barpop for absolutely years... But our last visit was terrible. The place was overrun with youths and their vape smoke! I'm 32 and felt like I was at a youth center. We ordered 2 drinks.. £17!! Not the BarPop we remember.

We attended bar pops brunch on Saturday. When I say it was the BEST brunch I’ve been to in Manchester I mean it! Food was great, bar staff serving our brunch drinks couldn’t have been more attentive! The queens doing the brunch were amazing! So much energy and thought went into this brunch, from the games to entertainment everything was amazing! Quick drinks, lots of laughs, we have already planned to come back! If you need a brunch in Manchester bar pop is the place to be!

Normally a great place, but we have just been denied entry as one of our group only had a citizen card, the bouncer was very rude about this and snarky, what he said came across as racist as they outright said they do not accept citizenship cards ? I rang management and they confirmed they do not allow citizen card ID, sometimes this is the only ID people can get ? My biggest issue is the fact that my friend got denied entry because of the above ^^ but the same bouncer was letting viably young people into the bar without even checking there ids and was staring at us while he did this as if to prove a point. From looking at all the other reviews most of them are about bouncers. I will be emailing you to request the bouncers id and name as I will be pursuing thesis further as we have travelled a long way to come here, to the only safe exclusive place in Manchester, only to get denied entrance duu to racist bouncers ?? Ridiculous! Stay clear of this place, especially you plan on travelling a long way. It’s a racist place and the management are not any better as the sided with the bouncer not even willing to speak to us about this issue. STAY CLEAR OF THIS PLACE !!!!

Bar Pop in the Gay Village is an absolute gem! With good vibes, reasonable drink prices, live karaoke, dancing, and cabaret shows, it's a complete package for a night of entertainment and fun. The addition of cabaret shows brought an extra touch of excitement to the already lively atmosphere. It's perfect for a fantastic night out. Friendly staff as well.

I came to one of your brunches on Saturday (10 of us for a joint hen and stag do party) and I just wanted to say what a amazing stand up job Lavendar Mills did!!! and her co host (I'm so sorry I didn't catch her name) They honestly should be so proud of themselves, they made our weekend! I will be shouting from the roof tops for people to come to your bar and try your brunch! your food and service was on point! I do not have a single fault :) thank you so much for making our weekend! we will be back in the future! :D

I hate to say it but I think this place is racist, my girlfriend was the only ethnic girl in this club and got asked to leave for “intoxication”! If you care about whats fair, I wouldn’t spend your money at this place people. They dont really care about their customers. My girlfriend is in bits because of how she was targeted, this could happen to anyone in a minority group, so please STAY CLEAR of this place. Myself and my girlfriend were sitting down by the entrance finishing our drink, until security approached us and said that she was “too entoxicated” and we had to leave. She simply wasn’t we kissed and she leant on my shoulder, before starting another conversation, security then escorted us out the premises which we did as they requested, because I thought that they were going to explain why we had been removed but instead they just said we had to go home, eventually we convinced the security to bring out one of the managers who said they would explain why we were removed, again saying that my girlfriend was showing signs of intoxication where she clearly wasn’t. PLEASE STAY CLEAR, this place doesn’t deserve to represent an inclusive community.

I’m writing this on my partners behalf as she doesn’t not have a gmail account.The bar it self was great, fun atmosphere, the drag queens were amazing, good music, drinks and karaoke! I was on my hen do with my friends and family having the best time, the thing that let this place down was the bouncer with short red hair. She was absolutely vile, her attitude was disgusting she spoke down to us as if she was superior she had an issue as soon as we walked in. As a girl in heels sometimes our feet need a break she came over and said “I’ve told you to put your shoes on 3 times or you’re out of here” for a start she only told us once. I was with my friend in the toilet as she needed a hand because she was quite drunk she told us to open the door but because my friend had a playsuit on ment she had to take the whole outfit off to go to the toilet so I couldn’t open the door because she had no clothes on! She then told us to leave and radioed through to the other bars down the street saying “I was too drunk” yet this didn’t work as I was let it to all the other places with no problem as they said I don’t understand what she was talking about you’re fine and let us in and we continued to have a good time. It’s a real shame as this place was really good let down by one person it’s no wonder bouncers get a bad name for themselves, so if you see this woman just bare in mind that her attitude really is disgusting.

So came here for my sisters hen and the people behind me robed the glasses off my sitters head and the reason I found out was because a staff member came to tell me that it happens. I got a drink thrown at me and and I when I reacted I was grabbed by the staff a girl with red hair and a bald man I was pushed and kicked out the back door they were horrible. I would not recommend this bar because the staff are nasty and sit. Treat the customers the way they should be treated

The DJ on Friday needs a thicker skin, one of my friends joked about skipping a song and the DJ got the door man to speak to my friend and almost throw him out! Like grow up. The vodka in this place is vile :( The atmosphere was super weird as all the light are on? Like the what is that about? Definitely not a bar/club I would want to head to all night but 1 drink maybe to realise you need to leave straight after. Bar staff and drag queens are absolutely lovely though and totally it's saving grace.

Have been here before and always found it great. This time there was a few hen parties in which took up all the space and there was no space for anyone else. I am all for inclusivity but there has to be some kind of limit. Also the drinks are very expensive. They have a double up for a £1. A double gin and mixer then cost £8. Does that mean a single is £7 and so my double makes it £8. There were a few people questioning the cost but bar people were sticking to what they said. Overall a lovely atmosphere that could be improved.

First time in Canal Street and thought Bar Pop looked welcoming...big mistake!! Bar staff were generally unfriendly. Asked for a bar menu with a cursory response of "no...we don't"...I attempted some humour but this was met with a dismissive look as the staff member walked away...clearly not interested in any additional customer service. My partner went in to get drinks and was met with the same mardy attitude...couldn't even muster a smile. We decided to quickly finish our drinks as the atmosphere from Bar Pop was dismal. Returned our empties to the bar and left. The most unwelcoming place. Wish we had checked reviews first as the awful manners seems to be a recurring theme. Praise be for the next pub we went to "the Goose"...an awesome wee place, deserving of the 5 star review we will give. Take note Bar Pop! Maybe some customer service training from the Goose staff would be of some use.

We recently visited Bar Pop for Diva's Drag Cabaret Show as a group of hens, and it certainly didn't disappoint. This experience was the absolute highlight of our weekend, leaving us in complete stitches from start to finish. The show was hysterically funny, and we really hope Scotland is one of the stops on your worldwide tour. So if you're looking for a night filled with laughter, glamour, and unforgettable performances, Diva's Drag Cabaret Show is the place to be. Leaving me with just one last thing to say, and that is Coochie Meow Meow! ❤️❤️❤️

Diva’s Brunch - what a genuinely fantastic day out to celebrate my friend getting married. The acts (Lavender, Jackie and Bella) were absolutely HILARIOUS. The food was nice, and generally the service was just perfect. Couldn’t have asked for a better day out.

It was our first time visiting and the first bar we went to so had high hopes…The woman walking around in a managers jacket needs to learn some manners. After dancing for a little while, we needed some fresh air because downstairs was like a hot box, there were no signs advising of no drinks outside so as we stepped out, we rudely got told to get back in and she pushed the door closed as we were walking back in. After that we opened the door a tiny bit to get some breeze with my foot but the “manager” then pushed the door shut and jammed my foot causing it to bruise… I had only had 1 cider so was still sober and I imagine she thought I was drunk which is why she didn’t care to speak with us nicely and explain however this does not excuse rude behaviour.

Well, Drag Divas Brunch was nothing short of wonderful. We arrived at 12pm, were seated at 1pm, fed pronto (I had a decent cheeseburger), then the 90 minutes free flowing booze arrived (loads of choice) in tandem with an absolute cracker of a drag show. We were propelled into a party atmosphere with Viva La Diva, Bella da Ball and the very sweet Lavender Mills. We were there until almost 4pm, so very good VFM (been to drag brunches in London and consistently evicted after two hours). So if you want a raucous party, where everyone is roaring with laughter, singing and dancing, this is the place to choose!

Would give a 0 star review if possible, security staff extremely confrontational. Avoid at all costs if you have a disability, seems that you aren't allowed to sit anywhere outside the building as it's "private property" enforced by the council in regards to their license. No exception made for disabled individuals as it is such a strict rule that they must follow it or loose their business. Strangely enough they had nothing to say when I told them I was a Licensee myself and have never had an issue with letting a disabled person sit down or in their words "loiter". Also interesting that they enforced that this was private property, therefore a disabled person can not sit down on the floor. However, you can't actually stop a person doing anything on private property atleast without an injunction. BarPop seem to have an inappropriate view on how disabled people should navigate their life, offering the disabled individual to sit on VIAs stacked and put away chairs instead. All in all the whole interaction with BarPop, their male manager and female bouncer/security staff from C&D who told me I was "in her face". When I can promise you I was extremely calm and questioning the legalities of denying a disabled person a place to sit, then left when I told her I meant no disrespect but refused to leave their actions unaddressed, THEN continued to point at me from the other side of the pathway.... TLDR: BarPop lie about "rule" which stops disabled person from sitting out of the way on the path whilst waiting for friends, when questioned bouncer gets agitated and confrontational, management back up their ideals and states "VIA does not manage their customers", lies about legalities of "private property"

Bar Pop Drag Brunch in Manchester is an absolute blast! From the moment you step in, the vibrant atmosphere sweeps you up in excitement. The colorful decor and energetic music set the perfect stage for an unforgettable experience. The drag performers are incredibly talented and entertaining, delivering performances that will have you cheering and clapping along. The brunch menu offers a delicious selection of food and drinks, ensuring that your taste buds are just as satisfied as your eyes and ears. It was probably the best drag brunch I have ever been too and I felt like I was in Benidorm but in a good way. Overall, Pop Drag Brunch is a fantastic way to spend a weekend morning with friends, full of laughter, fun, and fabulous entertainment. Highly recommended!

They call it the heart of the gay village, but the that couldn't be further from the truth. The owners care more about money that the village, they always have. The bar is essentially a straight bar, in the Gay village.. You have Straight customers (who look crazy) objectifying men (see attached photo)... imagine if that was the other way around a man to a women, there would be uproar, yet the owners allow this behaviour, but its not surprising when one of the old owners is dating a someone 3 times younger than him.

Went on Saturday night, Was a great night with pop music. No drag show. Typical sticky floors. No glass used which is a shame coz when you try and hold a party cup with your expensive drink it is likely to get squashed and spilled. Was not a fan of the shared bathroom experience due to unpleasant gentlemanly habits. Also didn’t like the perceived permission to vaping indoors including the Dj. If I want to destroy my lungs I can choose to do it. However this was just like the s second hand smoke days. Just smells sweeter! Lots of dancing, the vibe changed about 2am to more dance music than pop which was the start of the end of our night.

I used to come to this bar every weekend a few years ago but the situation we were in last night was absolutely shocking. We approached the doors to get in, we showed IDs and the 2 members of our party with bags were searched (my brother and his girlfriend). My husband and I were not searched as we had no bags. After this was all complete we were granted entry into the venue. Within 5 minutes my husband was grabbed by the security guard and told to get outside. When we all left the venue I questioned what the problem was (as we were really confused). They were not very upfront about what the situation was until the very unprofessional female bouncer pulled out a bag of drugs from her pocket and said that it had been found on one of our party during the search. As they grabbed my husband I presumed they were trying accuse him of possession (even though he wasn't searched on entry) but then with a very smug look on her face informed me that it was a female member of the party it was found on. I saw my sister in law get searched and this was not pulled out of her bag. When we accused the security guard of the false claim she got very defensive and escalated the situation by winding up members of the party which she seemed very pleased about and then she informed all other bars we shouldn't be let into other venues because of these false claims. If they didn't like the look of us for whatever reason and just didn't want us in the venue I would rather they just be honest. If you can provide CCTV of the drugs being found on one of our group I'll delete this review. I won't believe for one moment the owners of this establishment want the doors run this way and as the drugs definitely were not from us it also means the staff are in possession of drugs.

party of 4, all get searched etc and everything was fine, as we got to the bar about to order drinks, youngish male bouncer grabs a male from the party and asks him to come outside, naturally we all follow, confused as to what was going on. Female bouncer reveals a bag of drugs claiming to have found it on a female in the group - despite grabbing a male in the party to come outside. We were all searched before entering the venue and were inside the venue a good 2 mins before they decided they found drugs. Absolutely ridiculous treatment of regular customers. Female bouncer then went on to radio in to the whole of the strip about us and we were refused in anywhere on the strip. Ruined our night based on bouncers lies. Most likely due to their own boredom as the bar was fairly empty. We were all sober by this point as was only around 11pm. will not be going back.

Young bouncer id me had attitude, then couldn’t work out my age threw my id back to me. Given promotion vouchers on drinks which were a scam. Music was good, people inside with friendly expect 1-2 people. Huge let down was the bouncer on the door, ( no point id in ppl if you can’t count.) bouncer needs to go on a training course in customer service

Fantastic club. Attended on a Wednesday night ( my big sister birthday ) we headed down and felt nothing but welcomed. Sang on karaoke, danced the night away. Met new friendly people. All the bar staff was FANTASTIC. Quick service. No waiting more than 2 or 3 minutes. Very quick and good at there job. Drag queen Bev was the greatest!! Jolly, funny, entertaining. Had the best night. Door man Mo was seen giving a homeless man a cig. To some this is a minor but to me as a care giver I saw somebody who let his barriers down to support a homeless man! This is beautiful. It encouraged other smokers outside to give him 1 too. True act of kindness. THANKYOU SO MUCH for the fantastic evening. I WILL be returning!! Bev on the mic is hilarious really made my evening. LOVED IT. We all did. Ps I took my 9 month pregnant sister and she sat and danced on her chair and felt safe this was a MASSIVE thing for us. Forever greatful for the night I had with my lpvely sisters and all staff at this bar!! HIGHLY RECCOMENDED. ( bev normally works weekends )

Your young male bouncer needs to be re-trained to tell the difference between a sober person and a drunk person. Said my friend (who has a slight spinal problem) was drunk when we both are sober and don't drink. The female bouncer let us in after a quick discussion. The venue was okay, very sticky floor making it hard to dance. Top floor wasn't open on a Saturday night making it very crowded on the one floor. Doubt we'll be going again.

The female bouncer is so rude and on a total power trip. I won’t come back here and pay money to be spoken to like that.

We went here for a hen do and did their bottomless brunch with the divas! They were absolutely brilliant, they had the crowd laughing and they kept it interactive. The drinks were constantly flowing! Definitely worth every penny. I’d highly recommend this place and will definitely come back if I’m ever around Manchester again!

The security guard was so helpful when we felt uncomfortable and harassed by an older man in the club. Kian saved us and was very professional, having the man escorted from the premises and we immediately felt safer. Kian is amazing!!!

Was groped by man who was lurking in the toilets multiple times, told male security who found him then female security told me "he said he didn't so we can't kick him out" despite them having a camera in the toilets where it happened. So if you value your safety don't go here, because the staff do not show any form of protection.

This is more the real deal, compared to Wetherspoons 100 m to the west. A big pub, traditional interior, lots of beers to choose from. Service takes some time if it's crowded.
