The Liquor Store in Manchester

Kelly was great as a security he was fab

Had a great time. Ian (jesus)was such a good host and his sidekick Simon. The owner Matt is amazing as well. Highly recommend

Ian and Simon always look after us ♡ Chester is amazing well. It's such a little family we love to go to. Matt must be proud 👏

Incredible music, service and beer. Everything we wanted from Manchester and more.

Friendly staff that know what there doing, good time as always!

Out in Manchester with my fiancée for my birthday weekend, we chose this bar as our first stop. Quiet at first as we came early, but we could not fault the place. The guys working were absolutely, and they genuinely get the place going. Great service, great⁸ interaction with the customers,they even got us free shots for my 40th birthday, which we didn't expect. Brilliant music playlist as well. The might got better as it got busier and busier. Let's just say we didn't go anywhere else after being in there. Thanks again

What a great place to drink nice and Cousy

We chose the Liquor Store to host our leaving do and we couldn’t have been happier. We had the right hand side of the bar roped off and Danny was our go to guy for the evening. The team, and particularly Danny were so great and it wasn’t just us thought that, many of our guests mentioned it too. We had some welcome drinks planned and they were served for us and they kept everyone topped up and happy. A few there weren’t drinking and the team put together some bespoke mocktails to cater for them which were delicious, as were the regular cocktails. If you’re considering booking the Liquor Store for your event I would definitely recommend. We’ll be back for any of our future events! Thanks again team!

Fantastic place for a drink. GREAT service and friendly staff

I enjoyed watching my friends drinking here. I did not sit down.

Best pub in Manchester by far travelled the world only been back in the UK for 5 months tried many bars since i have been back this place is my first choice every time

Got to love this places and the staff are amazing

We came for the cocktail master class as part of our friends hen do and we had the BEST time! Danny was an exceptional host and had us laughing the whole time! We had such a good time we returned later for more drink and to enjoy the vibe of the bar!! Danny was also very informative throughout telling us hints and tips when making cocktails and the spicy marg & oasis was our faves :) Danny and the team (Matt) were very attentive and even got involved with our games and cocktail competition we asked to do. Overall the most accommodating team and we will definitely be returning (again haha) Thank you so much guys! Keep being amazing :)

Brilliant place, an authentic Manchester industry institution

Propper place with propper people . Great night great tunes . The place to go

Visited last night and ordered their cigarettes and alcohol cocktail which was really nice. However, the bartender was really rude to me. I saw when making the cocktails they put a lot of ice and I have sensitive teeth so asked if I could have less ice looking at the glass filled with ice on the bar. He said that the glass on the bar wasn't mine and scoffed at me. I then said I wanted no ice if possible (seeing as he hadn't yet put any ice in my glass) and he explained that the glass would be half full. I said that's fine but he looked annoyed. He then further said I cant have a garnish because the garnish would usually sit on the ice. I said that's fine and took the cocktail. Honestly wouldn't go back here after this experience. Made it out that my request was a big deal and hassle. Such a shame as the drink was nice!

AMAZING! One of our fave bars, brought a big group and everyone was so accommodating and made sure we got the most out of our experience. Hands down best cocktails in Manchester, had the best time as always!

We reserved a table here to continue hen party celebrations. The staff were friendly and there was a good choice of drinks available

#Really good staff,and selection of beer,the AC was most welcome on the hot Friday we were there.

I have never received such terrible customer service. The manager must be one of the rudest people I have ever met. Well apart from his obvious group of friends hanging around the bar. Please avoid at all costs, the abysmal customer service here actually ruined my night.

One of the few late night bars of a Thursday in Manchester Very pleasant atmosphere for a couple of old gits like me and my mate

One of the best spot to chill and drink . The atmosphere is greattttt, no hostility everyone's in a good vibe💥💥

Danny the boss is the best guy ive ever spoken to! What a lovely guy and manager felt I was really listened to and was told things were taken seriously. He needs a pay rise well done Danny!

What a lovely manager Danny! Feels like he actually listens to your concerns and acts upon them! Well done to him big up Danny!🥰

Good atmosphere and drink selection. I like going here as here you can have and drink and a chat as the music isn't over powering. They have also some drink offers. What not to like. Bar staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

A hidden gem. A lively bar with great service and music. Ref stripe in bottles was nice. Didn’t try any food but expect it would be nice. A nice change from the traditional pub

I did put a review in on another site but I thought I’d get my Google one in, this was from a few months ago. This place was absolutely amazing and I really mean it, one of the best bars I’ve ever been to. The music was spot on and the decor was amazing. It really did embody Manchester at its finest. The bartender who opened up was class and quite hilarious and when the other ones turned up they were just the same. The cocktail menu is literally perfect and the ghostbuster sharer is just so worth the price it’s unreal. The only note I could make is that they don’t do food, if they did…. It could be a contender for the place place in Manchester but I understand it’s a bar not a restaurant and they don’t wanna expand by building a kitchen and hiring chefs etc.

When in town you cant beat a few in The Store 👌✌️👍

Nathan knew what he was talking about, excellently recommended drinks, very comfortable place and happy to chat.

Absolutely great atmosphere and great staff loved every moment

A great bar that I'll certainly be frequenting again. Music was top notch

Great place, atmosphere is fantastic thebar staff very friendly and knowledgeable and great and making cocktails a must visit if your in Manchester

Great music, great cocktails - all round great vibe

Excellent bar, good music and the best bouncers!

Ordered a £10 whiskey-based cocktail, it tasted like I was drinking straight from a bottle of salted caramel syrup. Kindly asked if they’d change it because it must’ve been a mistake and got a rude, dismissive response. Learn how to make a drink. EDIT: the cocktail was £9.50 - I rounded up 50p. It was the ‘whiskey in a jar’ and we were told ‘it isn’t supposed to taste like whiskey’.

Best Margaritas and we love Danny 🫶

Fabulous cocktails and fabulous staff. Special shout out to Craig who looked after us and made sure we always had a drink in hand! Will be back. Highly recommend this venue.

First time at the liquor and it definitely will not be the last, Craig is amazing he made sure we had everything we needed and nothing was too much trouble.

Had an absolute ball for the afternoon. We were really well looked after by Craig. Great venue, love the vibe. We will be back! Thank you

this bar is just fantastic bar staff are amazing they have table service here the outside terrace is small but inside is roomy. this bar does have a large amount of different spirits to choose from

I loved the atmosphere and music. Staff were so friendly and warm . We went there this time with girls to surprise one of them an she loved it. Every time when i was there I enjoyed it. All i can say I wish liquor had more space at the front door .

Honestly me and my friends came here for the first time after a nice meal and this place was incredible. I firstly must say that the guy who ran the place with long brunette hair tied back was absolutely phenomenal. Amazing at his job, with great customer service and we will definitely return. He even let us get a photo with the MICHELLIN man and then the guests next to us bought it, for us to have some. Honestly this place is incredible, with great music and vibes and we will definitely return! Thankyou

Have been twice in two months. Manchester themed decor with lovely comfy booths. Cocktail menu is lovely, with some inventive choices. First time visiting was after work with friends and the barman was extremely friendly but the place was very quiet so he had more time for a personable touch. I personally had the cocktail in picture, which was pleasant. Based on the first experience, we came back a second time, as a group of 5. There was a roaming waitress who was amazing and one barman was extremely nice and had such a fun attitude it was impossible not to be happy when talking to him, however, the other barman (with dreadlocks) was extremely rude, and more interested in joking about with other staff and being overbearing. He also refused one male in our group a share cocktail stating we didnt enough people? When questioned, he refused to actually answer why and walked away. The toilet attendant apparently wasn't wearing footwear, which is very bizarre. Upon leaving, the outside area had filled with cigar smokers and people discussing using coke which gave it a sleazy vibe upon leaving which you don't feel inside as the vibe inside is very cool. Overall, nice place, and when quiet is great, cracks in service appear when very busy.

Cracking little joint, good music and great bar staff. Once past the bouncers anyway. :-p Nice range of drinks too, opens late, well worth a visit.

What an experience! Shim was our host for the cocktail master class and was brill. Highly recommend

Top staff, great drink selection and quality music. Can't ask for more from a venue. I try and call in at least twice a week with my girlfriend for a couple of drinks and just to see who's hanging about. Huge industry presence here so your bound to bump into either someone you work with or your hospo mates.

Decent bar with some good tunes on

Amazing cocktails and music. Really attentive staff. We always have a good time here

Good selection of cocktails; really enjoyed the oasis. Music wasn’t really my preference but it created a nice atmosphere.

10 Stars if we could give them. What an absolute Gem of a place - a group of 8 us around 40 years old having been told that we are too large a group to let in at other bars that evening, despite the fact we would be no trouble, were about to go home but we had reserved a table here. So glad we did, the minute walked in the staff were nothing but accommodating, had food ready for us (which I'd forgotten we'd ordered!) played some brilliant music - The Smiths, some Green Day, Oasis, U2, great beer, great food, great service they could not do enough. Wish we'd spent our whole evening there. Top top end to a weekend in Manchester and would be back here when next up in a heartbeat.

Brilliant atmosphere, music and bar staff! We had a blast celebrating our 40th Birthdays here! Would definitely come again.

Cool friendly venue! Good range of drinks... delicious cocktails 😃

Beste pøbben i byen. God atmosfære, ålreite priser og hyggelig personell

Amazing staff. Fabulous atmosphere. Classy bar!

Nice bar, hidden aeay so doesnt get too bisy, good music and decentvdrinks. Staff v friendly too

Booked this place last minute for our staff night out, wasn’t expecting much but they really delivered when we arrived every cocktail was on point and the hospitality was amazing. The music was great and suited the casual cocktail bar vibe, the bartenders working that evening catered to our every need and made it a more than enjoyable night. Sorry didn’t quite catch the names of the staff but well done to the two guys on the bar great service 10/10 for both of you. Definitely deserve the 5/5 rating!

Was here the other night, and I am appalled with the bouncer. A man was making a women extremely uncomfortable trying to advance on her when she was clearly not wanting anything. This was right next to the bouncer who was on his phone the entire time not even doing his job properly. She had told him to stop many times but he kept going, the bouncer was too busy looking at his phone to even notice at what was OBVIOUSLY happening RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. Maybe if you had a better bouncer that did his job properly this would have never happened. Truly disgusting.

Quán bar này vui nhộn với âm nhạc hay và một bữa tiệc thực sự rung cảm cho mọi lứa tuổi. Rất bận rộn, quản lý tốt không có rắc rối và nhân viên thật tuyệt vời! Phục vụ tương đối nhanh chóng mặc dù đó là Giờ khuyến mãi và họ phải biết các thành phần của 139 loại cocktail! Điều tiêu cực duy nhất là không có nhiều chỗ để ngồi nhất nhưng một số chỗ trống trong suốt thời gian chúng tôi ở đó.

Larger was flat and the cocktail was poorly made. Not what it used to be with the new staff members working there. Would recommend avoiding and going elsewhere unless it's a weekday after midnight - only place near the immediate city centre that's open until 4am.

Great drinks, Great music and nice environment

Great place with the feel good factor about it

Muy buen ambiente ckn musica rock, funk and soul.

Gezellige cocktail bar met weinig zit plekken.

Good choice of drinks, great bar staff. Looking forward to our next visit.

Very nice bar and good old music.

Great place with a fantastic selection behind the bar. One of the best rum old fashioned I’ve had! Will be calling again.

Booked a last min table for me and my boyfriend on an impromptu trip to Manc, what a find it was! Staff super chill and friendly, made to feel right at home. Cosy atmosphere on the inside with good music playing. Good cocktail menu with classics and house originals. Definitely worth a visit and will be back again.

Adam Put up with my indesisions, and my 5 minutes choosing a cocktail. Then recwndes different drinks based on my spirit of choice and what I feel like drinking tonight. Great vibe and even better drinks Xxx

Cracking bar well worth a visit

Had a booking for a Saturday evening, when arrived was told to sit where we wanted as was pretty empty. To be later told we had to move. We was told someone would be over to take our drinks order, 10 minutes we waited before going to the bar ourselves. Toilets were an awful state. Giving 2 starts as cocktails were nice, and 1 bartender was really nice and welcoming on arrival. Won't be returning.

If you like good music and good cocktails, this is your place, period. Simply perfect

No sé que es mejor, la gente que curra aquí, la música o sus cócteles absolutamente maravillosos. Para repetir sin dudarlo!

Great cocktails, excellent bar staff and fantastic music played

Nice pub was quite when I was there but it apparently only gets going after 12 midnight the stay open til 4am

Brilliant bar, great music and lovely staff. Definitely worth a visit.

Great for a late drink before Pedro's or home.

One of the best bars in Manchester. Top drinks, cocktails, staff, music and atmosphere. 10/10

Was better than I though, misses loved the coktails and will definately been coming again, especially for a lads night out

This little gem rates in my top 10 for small tucked away bars in Manchester. The staff are legends! The music is rock n roll 60s/70s. The cocktails are sublime. Not only this but the place is spotless. I'll definitely be going there again.

Good little pub with a great outdoor heated smoking area. Toilets were all individual cubicles that were clean and tidy.

Decent food options, good drinks selection, airy and comfortable seating. Table service pretty good although a little distant (doesn't bother me, better than overbearing)

Perfect, i like the alcohol it’s tasty 😍😍

Absolutely bouncing even on a Tuesday night. A hidden gem. Only place in the area open after midnight. Convenient for the hotels around the arena.

Great atmosphere and amazing cocktails.

Thoroughly recommend this if anyone is looking for a gin tasting experience. Our host was knowledgeable, explained the origins of gin and produced several different varieties to taste. Tried a couple of the local gins, and the background stories behind them which was very interesting. Bar has a really cool vibe, and if you're a fan of brit pop you'll enjoy it here. We'll definitely return for an evening on our next visit to Manchester.

Very nice from what I can remember 🙃

Music too loud. Drinks expensive.

Good bar, great drinks and atmosphere. Will be visiting again

Brilliant relaxing atmosphere. And all the staff are friendly and professional.

Horrible experience here on Friday night 04/03/22. Me and 4 work colleagues sat down at an empty table with our drinks, and were there for at least 20 minutes before a man came over and told us we had to move. He said he had been outside smoking but now he wanted this particular table back. One of his friends also came over and they tried to intimidate us into moving. They then somehow got the manager to come over who also told us to move! One of my colleagues asked another member of staff why they were allowing customers to intimidate others and she said "Because they come in here every day"....Seemed really dodgy like the staff were scared of these people and just allowed them to do whatever they want. We refused to move out of principle and then more people came over, and I suggested to a girl that we share the table, to which she replied "I could kick your head in". Awesome. We told the staff about this. They said they had removed them and yet we could see them all crowding round another table...what the hell. Anyway after more complaining they eventually left and the manager came over and apologised - too little too late. The whole situation was really weird and felt super dodgy. My partner messaged the venue the next day as he was really annoyed and I could not believe the response - see picture!

Amazing staff, so we'll looked after. Best wishes the Ghostbuster Boys!!!! See u soon

Can be a little pricey but it’s a really good place!

Hidden gem, fantastic place, fantastic service and fabulous cocktails. If the cocktail wasn't on the menu they made it for you too. What more could you ask for......

Fabulous hidden gem. Would definitely recommend booking a table. It gets busy. Fantastic friendly staff.

Great music, great drinks, great service.

Great night with friends. Great live music and friendly staff

Came on a gin master class experience and had a fantastic time. Our host was super knowledgeable on all things gin and walked us through a range of gins creating a great atmosphere. Had t been here before but will definitely be back!

Good selection of drinks and awesome staff

We went to the launch of the new cocktails menu last night. We tried nearly all of the cocktails everyone of them were amazing so many different flavours and so different from the classic cocktails. We felt like VIP's from the waitresses to the manager and even the guy that invented the cocktails taking the time to come and talk to us. This is going to be our regular place to go whenever we are in Manchester. I highly recommend this place 10 out of 10 for cocktails, service and atmosphere cant wait to go back.

Terrible rum and coke. Can't get the taste out of my mouth. How can you screw up rum and coke? They manage. Avoid.
