Hit and miss depending on which bar you go in. They area all mixed but some welcome stag and hen parties while others will not allow them in. Always worth remembering that Inspite of them being mixed, they are still LGBT bars so respect the different rules and culture or don't go.

Fun to visit anytime, but Manchester Pride is obviously best level! Really great to see the street alive and full of people having fun. Lots of outside Bars, but this one donating to charity everytime you bought a pint stands out!

Manchester's Gay Village, centered around this iconic Canal Street, is a dynamic and inclusive area that exudes warmth and vibrancy. The streets are always buzzing with energy, especially during the evenings and weekends. Colourful lights illuminate the canal, creating a picturesque setting that adds to the charm of the area. It boasts a diverse range of bars, clubs, and pubs that cater to different tastes and preferences. Some of the highlights and personal favourites: G-A-Y: Known for its lively dance floors, affordable drinks, and energetic vibe, it's a hotspot for those looking to party until the early hours. The Eagle: A more relaxed venue offering a mix of live music, DJ nights, and themed events, perfect for those looking to unwind and socialize. Molly House: A quaint pub with a cozy atmosphere, ideal for those who prefer a quieter night out with craft beers and excellent food. Via: A stylish bar with eclectic décor and a welcoming ambiance, often featuring drag performances and karaoke nights.

They're are very, very few green and grassy places in central town because INDUSTRY! But here is one little gem. It can at turns be as tranquil as lying back on a picnic blanket and watching a blue sky through the leaves of the grand trees - or it can be a crowded, manic, loud concert party space at Pride, and a space for candlelit vigils for those we have lost to HIV/Aids. And throughout it all, sits Alan Turing on a bench, arguably the best statue in all of Manchester. 💚

I love the Village area. I was coming down here when ' in the closet' was the thing and this was a safe place. The world has changed and now this area has become a beacon of celebration for all types of people that rejoice in their individuality. It is possibly not as lively and friendly as I remember it from twenty years ago, but it still stands proud as a place you can be yourself. It's the only place I've never seen trouble (yet..fingers crossed). It's the only place I will come and have a drink and feel safe. Xx

We came to Sterling for cocktails with our friends. We came after reading all the positive reviews online, and the cocktails did not disappoint! It is a large cocktail bar tucked away in the basement of one of the buildings in the city centre - the service was great with us being seated within 5 minutes. The old fashion cocktail it was perfectly balanced- with great tasting whiskey. I would recommend this to anyone wanting quality cocktails in Manchester city northern quarter.

Mancoco Coffee Bar & Roastery is a hidden gem in Manchester! The coffee is exceptional, with beans roasted in-house for that perfect fresh, bold flavor. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, always ready with great recommendations. Prices are reasonable, especially for the quality, and the cozy ambiance makes it a great spot to relax or work. Don’t miss their single-origin espresso—it’s fantastic or simply a flat white! Highly recommend for any coffee lover.
