Terrace in Manchester

I'd never been in the evening but it was a great vibe. Friendly people and staff. Surprisingly great beer selection too!

This place is supposed to have a 5 star rating because their service was good and the DJ is awesome. A good mix of music encompassing afrobeats, R and B, techno, dance hall, even Spanish music. Everyone here is in high spirits and has good vibes. The cocktail mix was splendid, had several glasses of espresso martini because of how good they mix it. Nevertheless, they got a 3 star because one of the bar staff working on the 5th of April 2024 made me feel so unsafe and threatened me. It was my first time at this place, and it was so big with lots of compartmentalized spaces both upstairs and downstairs. I mistakenly went to the side door of the bar trying to find my way before I looked up and saw staff only . Before I could do a turn, he came behind me screaming that I should get out , he didn't even wait for me to explain that I was lost and point me to where I could get a drink. People around noticed and helped out. He still came to the bar, staring sternly at me using harsh words. When I was done at the club, I saw him walking out with me and following me. At that point I was so worried and had to stop to let him walk past me the crossing to the other side of the road. If this place has a CCTV inside and mostly outside, they can go back to this date and that staff would be seen following me out .

olivia was a great barmaid and made us feel so welcome

Night out ‘for a few drinks’ turned out to be a great night out. They had an amazing Dj Ronin that gave back to back, diverse hits for most music tastes. Cocktails were blehhh (tried 3 different ones) - hence 3 stars for food But staff were quite sharp and good. Would def be back

My friend who is allergic to milk almost got poisoned. I asked for a melonball shot and she said yes. Then proceeded to pour an after eight, unbeknownst to me we shotted it to find out it was in fact am after 8! When I tried to confirm if it was a melonball she said yes and we said it was an after eight due to the mint taste. She gave my friend the dirtiest look when she said she was allergic to dairy and was worried it had milk in it. The bartender lied and only alfie told us the correct shot that we actually had. He confirmed it had no milk and apologised.

Nice place, good prices, enough seats and good vibes

When the weather is good then roof top terrace is a great spot to spend a few hours. Beer selection is good.

Had a really fun night here. Good atmosphere with a nice crowd and good music. Cocktails were nice and a cool range of beers too. I liked the shindigger session! We were next door and really didn’t rate it, glad we came here. The staff were amazing. Toilets also very cool with all the tags.

Last visted January 2024. Nice modern looking bar. Large selection of beers.

Banging Tunes , old school R&B. Drink prices competitive and good dance floor. Toilets are a bit of a let down though, definitely need checking throughout the night.

Had a great time here on a Saturday afternoon. Good drinks and amazing music. Busy place but loads of staff, would recommend.

I was disappointed by the strict door policy. I am 31 and don’t tend to carry ID because it is not generally a requirement for entry across the city of Manchester. But this place is different. I had to cut my night out short because although I showed a scan of my passport I was still refused. I think this goes too far and that the door policy could think of more creative ways of profiling people where necessary.

27/11/23: still one of my favplaces in Northern Quarter. Always a great selection of craft ale, craft beer and cider! 21/08/23: Vault City: Blueberry & Limoncello sour and Track Brewery: Sonoma November 2022: photo update. September 2022: another day, another visit. This time with Archibald! Noticed the inside outside area, which we must have missed this Summer. Looks fantastic. Terrace NQ as usual has a great beer and craft ale selection. We went for Vocation; Sunset Overdrive Piña Colada sour, 5.5% and Vocation; Bread & Butter dry hopped ale, 3.9%

proper sick bloody lovely customer service (sophie made me a sick cocktail) <33333

I love this place! Compared to the other gentrified overpriced hipster bars and pubs that line the streets of the Northern Quarter, this one really stands out. Staff are always friendly and laid back, great people. The rooftop is gorgeous and has amazing atmosphere. The drinks are gorgeous especially the cocktails and above all else are super reasonably priced, especially compared to nearby venues. Relaxed, scenic and a good time. Can’t recommend it enough if you’re in the area.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Extremely violent place. Fights erupt everywhere. Extremely overcrowded. Mainly chàv and 3rd world clientelle. Go at your own peril.

Pricey, but still comfortable place to chill

Really strange — you have to make an account and pay online to get a simple pizza. This is just not okay imo and deserves 1 star. Restaurants are about the experience not just food

Terrace N Q rooftop bar Manchester deliberately and repeatedly intimidate, harass, discriminate against and are constantly abusive, aggressive and patronising to a blind customer on the grounds of her simply being blind: absolutely shocking and disgraceful repeated discrimination and disability hate crime from five members of staff including Charlie the manager and Andy the owner at Terrace N Q nightclub and restaurant in Manchester city centre Hi everyone, 🙂 I'm Elina, and I am a disability rights advocate and campaigner. Recently, I was shocked and appalled when Laura, a completely blind friend of mine told me how she had gone to Terrace N Q restaurant and nightclub, and as soon as she arrived at the entrance, initially three members of staff repeatedly, intimidatingly, aggressively and in a very hostile, patronising degrading and belittling manor began harassing her and discriminating against her at the door and refusing her entry on the grounds of her being blind. These members of staff didn’t bother to ascertain anything about her, they didn’t even bother to ask for ID, they wouldn’t even allow her to talk because they repeatedly interrupted her by aggressively, intimidatingly and repeatedly raising their voices over her whenever she tried to even talk, they just continually and aggressively harassed her and repeatedly refused to allow her in on the grounds of her being blind. They then started whispering about her and talking about her in a patronising, hostile, degrading, belittling, derogatory, intimidating, and unprofessional manor. Understandably, Laura was shocked, appalled and very distressed by this, so she was forced to leave. In anger and frustration, she then decided to return to Terrace N Q once again, in the hopes of actually being shown some respect and decency, and as soon as she came back, she repeatedly received exactly the same aggression, intimidation, discrimination, harassment and abuse, and she was again repeatedly and firmly refused entry on the grounds of her being blind. As if the discrimination and disability hate crime wasn't enough, both Laura and I were very shocked and appalled by the despicably unprofessional, unlawful and immoral approach of Charlie the manager and Andy the owner of Terrace N Q, because despite both Laura and I repeatedly explaining and telling them what happened very clearly, they very unprofessionally and repeatedly lied, and repeatedly dismissed and invalidated Laura by pretending that the discrimination, harassment and abuse didn’t happen; furthermore, they repeatedly tried to justify the abuse and discrimination to Laura. Naturally, Laura felt very dismissed, unheard and invalidated by this further illegal and immoral deliberate and repeated discrimination and abuse from the manager Charlie and the owner Andy.

COLD AND SENSELESS DISABILITY DISCRIMINATION AND HATE CRIME COMMITTED BY TERRACE NQ: I WAS REFUSED ENTRY SIMPLY DUE TO BEING BLIND AND HAVING A WHITE CANE, A SYMBOL OF MY VISUAL IMPAIRMENT. EVEN WHEN I TRIED REASONING WITH SECURITY, THEY COMPLETELY DISMISSED ME, WHISPERED ABOUT ME TO MY FRIEND AND DENIED ME ACCESS. THEY DIDN’T EVEN BOTHER ASKING ME FOR ID. I THEN LEFT, AND LATER RETURNED IN FRUSTRATION, ONLY TO BE MET WITH THE SAME AGGRESSSIVE, RUDE AND DISCRIMINATORY BEHAVIOUR. THE ESTABLISHMENT LATER DENIED THAT ANY OF THIS HAD OCCURRED, DESPITE THERE BEING CCTV EVIDENCE. THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED. THEY DO NOT TREAT ALL CUSTOMERS LIKE HUMAN BEINGS.

Naturally, Laura felt very dismissed, unheard and invalidated by this further illegal and immoral deliberate and repeated discrimination and abuse from the manager Charlie and the owner Andy. As you probably already know, the Equality Act (2010) states that in any setting or workplace, members of staff have a legal duty to treat everyone equally, including people with protected characteristics like a disability. The Health and Safety and Work Act (1974) means that all members of staff at work have a duty to ensure their customers’ physical and emotional well-being and safety. The care act (2014) means that all members of staff have a duty of care towards the physical and emotional well-being of vulnerable people and customers. This means that the three members of staff, as well as the manager and the owner of Terrace N Q have all acted illegally and have broken three important laws by deliberately discriminating against, harassing and being abusive towards a blind customer, and by deliberately refusing to take responsibility and repeatedly justifying discrimination and abuse towards disabled customers, the owner and manager have neglected and failed in their clear duty of care towards Laura and towards disabled customers, placing their own jobs at risk. Morally, what they’ve done is disgusting, appalling and completely unacceptable, because of the level of distress and frustration it’s caused Laura. Luckily, Laura and I have both kept written evidence in the form of email communications, which clearly shows the manager’s repeated and deliberate discrimination, hostility, intimidation, dismissiveness, justification of abuse and unprofessionalism towards Laura. Terrace NQ also have CCTV footage evidencing the abuse repeated discrimination, abuse and aggression that Laura suffered from this establishment. Furthermore, the repeated instances of abuse, aggression, discrimination, and disability hate crime were witnessed by multiple customers. Laura has told me that in all other nightclubs, restaurants, and establishments she has been to, staff have treated her normally and with basic politeness. In my experience as a disability rights advocate, if other venues have been discriminatory to other individuals with disabilities, the managers and owners are very apologetic and professional, and give a written apology as well as a voucher as a small gesture of good will. That’s why I was shocked and appalled by the deliberate dismissiveness, discrimination and shockingly unprofessional attitude of the manager Charlie and owner Andy, who largely contributed towards Laura’s distress. The strangely repetitive and adamant refusal of the members of staff combined with the shockingly unprofessional attitude of the manager and owner is very odd, and does also make Laura and me wonder if Terrace N Q are trying to hide or cover up something else illegal, dangerous or going against health and safety that was happening on the premises, and it makes us seriously question whether the premises itself is even legal. Laura voiced these concerns at the time, but the abusive and discriminatory members of staff just completely ignored her. Laura and I have told a lot of people about this, and they have all been shocked and appalled and said how disgusting the disability discrimination, abuse and hate crime was, and they were even more appalled by the owner and manager’s completely unprofessional and illegal approach. I know I certainly won’t be visiting Terrace N Q, particularly as I already know that at least five members of staff have been aggressive, abusive, hostile, dismissive, discriminatory and so unprofessional. Partly I won’t be going there because I don’t want to support abuse and discrimination of disabled customers, and partly because if I’m out with friends having a good chilled time, I don’t want to be treated with intimidation, aggression, discrimination and hostility; I want to go somewhere and be treated normally, in a warm, welcoming and ordinary way, which is what every person deserves. Thanks for reading, and please share with as many people as possible so that other people don’t have to go through what Laura did.

Very nice place to go dancing and have the last drinks of the night.

Grate place to chill out and catch a vibe.

Would like to thank the door staff for being very accommodating for my friend who has a disability. I was expecting a hard no but they were super cool about it and made arrangements to provide disabled access. Great customer service during a very busy Saturday night. Oh and always bring ID!!

Gluten free beer on tap and in the fridge!

Lovely on a sunny day! The pizza is amazing too!

It's a good place for a night out. The DJ plays different types of music Afrobeats, grime, US hits, bashment. There's no gate fee to enter just show your ID. It's getting really popular, so the queue outside is longer. However, the queue moves fast

Just went in for a drink. Nice atmosphere, good music playing in the background and good customer service

(Club review) Nice vibe, good people, hip hop, afrobeats, r&b type music, large upstairs terrace eith a second bar to talk, get drinks and enjoy a chilled out vibe away from the heated dancing down stairs. Drinks a bit on the expensive side but they have a nice shot called baby guiness (if you like baileys)

This place has a door man who thinks he's got the heys to the mansion, they insist on photo ID , that is fair enough , but when presented with a colour photo of your passport ( which is accepted by legal authorities ) they say its not enough , apparently they are more privileged than MI6 ! Bizarre, a front man with a chip on his shoulder, shame , last time i will go there . Treated disspacably.

It was a sunny afternoon in the northern Quarter, so there was no doubt we were going to visit this place. We’ve been several times before and don’t be put off by the unassuming entrance. Once you go inside, you are greeted by friendly staff serving a great range of drinks at decent prices. The people I was with had never been before, and we’re amazed just how many different terraces and how big the outdoor space is from was once was presumably a terraced house. It was very comfortable with a mix of sun and shade as required and was really quite busy to say it was early in the afternoon. There is a buzzing atmosphere, but I really like this one, and I’m sure the people I went with will be going back on their own next time.

Great bar in the northern Quarter very good beer selection

Was ok ,sat outside,plastic pots,1st time in this part of Northern quarter.

Decent for a quick nightout in Northern quarter

Racist establishment! Went in tonight and they only letting black people in ! They don’t care if you have ID they just care about the colour of your skin! Absolutely disgraceful. Wanted to come in but was judged based our race. As someone of colour I would expected more and some representation but the guy and girls on the door was more concerned about letting their “mates “ in!

Hidden gem of the Northern Quarter with a lovely rooftop bar. Has a fantastic beer selection including a good range of German and Belgians.

Great Coffee and Cake and lovely roof terrace

The small guy on the door was really rude. We were stood on the wrong side of the queue and moved as soon as he flicked his hand at us and said queue is that side. He then asked for ID which I provided but there are no signs says admittance only if you have ID and I've never had to provide any there before. We left and went to Cottonopolis as staff are much more professional there.

Lovely bar perfect place for a summer pint out on the terrace!

Great selection of beers and the rooftop terrace is ideal for summer in the city

Dreadful attitude from security

Great vibe away from and above the streets of NQ.

Came in for a drink, was kicked out as I was rude to the bar staff despite not ordering a single drink in the bar since I had been in. Manager said this despite the bouncer Enderick stating I was okay and he would have allowed me to stay in . The manager said I was too drunk and was nasty to staff but wouldn’t come and speak to me about this as it obviously wasn’t true. I have been a bar manager and I know you have time to speak to people but he was “too busy” to speak to me about this as he knew he didn’t have no evidence to back it up and the bouncers were backing me. Lovely place, lovely bar staff, horrible management who won’t face up with issues that they have caused by spreading incorrect lies. I asked the manager to come forward to the front of the bar with the staff I had been rude to but obviously he was too “busy”. Joke of a place with shocking supervision

Rude and obnoxious staff Not allowed in as I was alone Had to have a partner

The big security man on the door on a sat night is a very moody añd añgry guyàsking me fór photo I'd ,but only passport or license .The young gírl bes atide him piped up too ,as he told her too Ño visible signs tó stipulate your nonsense requirements Making rules up about after 10 pm Didn't ask the black guy behind me for id thóugh. Probably some kinda mafia securíty yóu got góing on! Tunes are dry and stale anyway ...

Not enough afrobeats and amapiano.

Honestly. Best place i’ve had a night out

Lively location for a few drinks, with an open outside area.

Inattentive staff (very late service at empty bar/avoiding eye contact), weird lighting, and not my choice of clientele. This place doesn’t know whether it wants to be a cocktail bar or a club.

Not a favourite destination for me or Martin. Been a few times and it can get really busy. They sell real ale so Martin Meerkat had a pint of Vocation Bread and Butter. A good pint. The missus was not impressed with her pricey wine. Sadly another card only establishment so loses a* for that. Apparently there is a roof terrace but I have never been. The bar has the urban industrial bare brick look.

One of my favourite bars in the Northern Quarter. Really good vibe :)

Lovely place! Nice outside area and good value for money!

Been here quite regularly on nights out. It’s decent but can get way too busy at times and it’s uncomfortable, you can barely move and the queues are too long. Music seems to have gone downhill recently too, used to be a lot better. Cocktails are nice and staff are pretty friendly too, never had an issue with the bouncers here which is good for Manchester!

Love it especially in the summer

Great service and nice atmosphere

0 if I could give it probably won’t bother again in there. was with friends, enjoying the evening bartender served all of them besides me (stood at an empty bar) all of a sudden more people come over still ignoring me and served everyone else which of course annoyed me and I called him out on it. Decided I’d get better service downstairs after and he was stood telling the staff downstairs not to serve me. Ruined the entire evening. Shocking service wouldn’t even mind but I was stone cold sober.

Really fun, nice song choices and everyone is just trying to enjoy themselves. No weird sleazy grabs from guys. 10/10 great night

Great nightlife. Pricey beers but a good selection.

Great classes at the top floor.

Spent the New Years in and it had a great party really busy.Absolutely loved it and enjoyed! Had a blast...until next time!

Great place for a party. Still a crowded venue problem that all the bars seem to have

Great staff and beers,as always

Really enjoyed this place. Staff very welcoming, good choice of drinks. Definitely will be returning.

Amazing, such nice support from Lily and Adrien, beautiful people

Have people wait in line 45 mins to tell them no I'd no entry, if that's the policy fair enough but let people know whilst there in que to save time

Amazing food. Fab service. Love it here x

Lovely bar with a roof terrace for warmer dryer days.

Always loved Terrace, great place for a chilled beer or two. Some of the beer prices are a little steep in terms of the guest craft pale ales etc.

Great staff and a nice vibe. You can order pizza, which gets delivered alla takeaway, all high quality wood fired pizzas

เน้นดื่ม บรรยากาศดาดฟ้าคือดีงาม ชั้นล่างดึกๆ dance กระจาย

Nice Terrace. Good Music. Fine Pizza. Quick Service. Dog Friendly!!!! Will be back!

The few and inexperienced beer staff downstairs are unable to keep up with serving the customers and this leads to large anxious crowds at that tiny bar. This leads to friction, pushing and shoving - and add in their regular awkward trouble-making customers to the mix and it's not really a great vibe. The music is ok yeah. Later in the evening it becomes somewhat tacky and pretty much only for singles. Conclusion: not a great or comfortable vibe, takes ages for drinks and gets frequented by aggressive and awkward single men.

Ben was amazing! Brilliant customer service & he’s very handsome;)

Although the atmosphere and surroundings were very nice and welcoming, the bar staff was absolutely rude! He had an attitude when he was taking our order and seemed clearly annoyed for no absolute reason.

Great atmosphere and great bar staff.

£5.60 for a Flat pint of estrella with a washing up liquid top

Nice little terrace. Good drinks and service.

An amazing place to go to for some drinks and dancing the staff were amazing and understand it was an amazing experience

I have no recollection of being here.. Must be a good pub!

Great place during the day to go to. Got some work done and enjoyed some nice (slightly weird) bottled beers. Huge selection of bottled and canned beer. Very chilled and surprisingly big inside. During the week big enough for you choose to sit somewhere to chill or mingle with others. Good friendly service.

A wonderful roof-top bar thats a sun trap in Manchester. If you're looking for standard beers [bud or peroni in bottles or heineken and other common beers on tap then this is not for you. That's not to say the choice isn't great because it is, with craft beers, IPA's and other wonderful beverages. This was my first visit and I have no idea what it'll be like in the winter but I'd like to think there's heaters and maybe even some umbrellas.

The Terrace is wicked on sunny day

Nice place to enjoy Nice tunes, pleasant staff, nice and friendly bouncers, can't ask for more !

Food delivered by external company. Food quality :(

Came in as they were setting up the dj was quite loud but I’ll let it off, food was okay even tho they did get the order a little mixed up no bother, and a flat pint so could have been a lot better but was a nice atmosphere

Been loads of times. It's sick. Just trust me, it's pretty mint for after work drinks n'that. No knobheads or anything.

Bouncers decided who got in based on gender, horrible experience, would recommend sacking the bouncers, especially the short man with a grey beard

Dark, grungy, friendly, good.vibes, not the cheapest but a good place to start the night. Two entrances on different streets, one closes at 11pm so be aware if you're meeting friends.

Probably the best place in Northern Quater it's class

Great bar, good beers and service. Always a regular stop. You can't go wrong here

When in Manchester it's a go-to bar. The staff are friendly and efficient. It has an outdoor smoking area. Like it for its chilled out vibe. It also has a roof terrace but we've usually stayed put on ground floor.

Fast and friendly service. A bit too dark for my liking

Average experience tbh I don't see the attraction. Staff not knowledgeable about strengths of beers, place very basic, I suppose it's only plus it a roof terrace

Great location and great staff - especially my friend from Sierra Leone on the door. GREAT guy!

Please sort out your door policy when it comes to mens clothing. I have been to this venue on multiple occasions, with no issues and had a good night. Last night I was turned away due to the fact I was wearing green cargo trousers. These are the same trousers I have worn inside with no issues on past occasions. This selectivity and un-clear random translations of your clothing policy is leading to discriminatory practices at your venue

A wednesday afternoon and the rooftop barman took almost 15 mins to do 3 coctails the 2 other orders of 1 drink each,then with a crowd waiting decided to pull through a new beer,left unserved.

Great atmosphere just a bit pricey

Nice atmosphere and great place for few drinks!

full of 30 year olds who still think they’re 20 so kinda unsettling vibes tbh. good music though
