Such a unique place, very experimental drinks and very good story telling with the staff. They were so knowledgeable and friendly, there was someone on a table near us who didn't like his drink but didn't say anything, the staff saw this and promptly offered them another which was fantastic. I will 100% return if I'm ever in Manchester again

Visited this unusual bar after the Peter Kay gig. Wanted to see it after reading other reviews. It's unusual, entering via a secret door. Once in it was buzzing; great atmosphere and excellent service. That service started with them holding our booking, even though we ran late from the arena. The cocktail menu is extensive, and they are more expensive than some other places. But for an occasional visit, that's fine. Make sure you check out the hidden room upstairs, and find the slide !

Visited this bar with my partner on a visit to manchester. I was so excited but was left extremely disappointed. I struggled to hear the staff and we received the incorrect drinks too. We tried 6 drinks (2free because they weren't ours) in total and it’s sad to say none of them tasted nice, both tables either side of us also didn’t look impressed with the taste. My partner will literally drink anything going but not these. The interior of the bar and the presentation of the drinks is all they have going here for me. Extremely overpriced too. Real shame.

Very interesting and unique bar. Treated my friends to a couple of drinks and we were not disappointed. It's NOT one of those places where they put on a show and then disappoint with the drinks; they were very well made, thought out and special. A really nice + fun location if you want something different. It's also a bigger place, so you can stay and have a bit of privacy + good conversations. Service was attentive and explained the vegan options as well (some cocktails will have egg/milk obviously). A bit pricey for Manchester I'm assuming (around 15 £ for a cocktail) BUT very reasonably priced for what they serve you and offer. Totally worth the experience. 10/10 would recommend!

Secret cocktail bar just up from Printworks in Manchester. It's a great little bar you access through a fake laundry frontage (you have to book in advance). The cocktails are all very original and well made...the staff are all really helpful and explain every drink to you in detail when it comes to the table. If I had any minor gripe it is that the music is a bit generic and there are only 2 or 3 very basic bar snacks...I think a small bar menu would work really well! Ps - ask about the secret slide 😂

Very overhyped, the cocktails were very mediocre and the atmosphere didn’t match the conspiracy theory theme. Feels like a very disjointed “speakeasy” compared to others I’ve been to, if you have a theme stick with it!! Once you step through the vending machine it’s then a conspiracy theory bar but without decor or atmosphere to carry it through. Didn’t appreciate the server trying to push us to order shots when we just wanted to look at the menu and decide on a cocktail. What could be an awesome venue was let down by some very basic things.

Absolute waste of time and money. It feels very much like a trendy thing to do, a place to say you've been. The wait for cocktails when they were ordered was unacceptable. I ordered a second almost as soon as I got my first and ended up cancelling it because the wait was too long. It definitely derailed out evening as we were looking forward to enjoying a few good quality cocktails after a nice meal out. I'd definitely avoid this place if you want to enjoy good quality cocktails at a reasonable price. You're being overcharged for theatrics and little substance here.

I really don’t want to post too much. It feels so secretive - there are so many surprises hidden at the Washhouse. The entrance itself. The menu, the hidden menu, the hidden Japanese bar linked to this. It’s such an adventure. I’m returning again and again, there’s so much more to explore. I can only recommend to visit WASHHOUSE and see where it takes you. Also, the service is more than brilliant! The staff takes this to a next level. Not to mention the drinks, they are as tasty as they are interesting to look at. Often come with some extra adding to the experience of the drink.

The bartending world is in turmoil, and conspiracy theories are emerging... I visited this playful bar last year. There was a washing machine at the entrance. The laundry chute was pushed open, and a staircase went straight up to the second and third floors. Only then did the bar appear. This month’s theme is “Conspiracy Theories.” The wine list lists more than 20 pages of famous classic conspiracy theories. The “Bermuda Triangle” I ordered is made with tequila, coconut milk, and rum. , so sweet, no wonder it causes mysterious disappearances 🤣 The waiter asked me to drop a small black object on the wooden box into the wine glass. He pressed a small button on the side of the wooden box, and the whole drink began to rotate. The boat is missing in the Bermuda Triangle, he explained without blushing and out of breath. Laughing to death. However, the essence of Cocktail is to convince people with wine. No matter how many gimmicks there are, if the temperature is wrong and the proportion is out of proportion, without the sparkle that the alcohol should have when the alcohol collides with each other, it will be just a puddle of wine at best.

Went here as we were looking for a different experience. This certainly met the criteria in a very good way. Entering the bar through a vending machine and the conspiracy theory cocktails certainly gave this place an unexpected novelty factor which we really enjoyed. The service was outstanding and the staff knew their facts when it came to the drinks. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants to make a memorable evening. There are only snacks available here as it is primarily a cocktail bar.

Fantastic place. Best cocktail bar I've been to. I love the whole process, from going in through the 'washhouse' to the whole conspiracy theory theme. All topped off with a DJ in the unisex toilets! It is fairly expensive if you just want a cocktail but I was fine with that because you're paying for the experience too. Would happily work my way through the whole list of cocktails. I want to go there again right now!!!

Based behind an apparently abandoned launderette, this top floor cocktail bar offers a range of conspiracy inspired cocktails. The vibe is cool, dark green.. speakeasy....low level lighting over the tables, friendly informative staff....and above all the drinks...they are beautifully presented..with a fun backstory...and taste superb. For fun, try the Nrssie, or the birds aren't real, the Illuminati...or the hidden menu...on the back page with secret password..for their house cocktails.This is definitely worth a visit anytime you are here..btw..order the retro crisps...you literally get a large bag of assorted retro salty treats.... fantastic!

What an amazing bar that I highly recommend to visit og you are passing Manchester 🤩 To get inn you need to pre-book in advance, but this was no problem even last minute. After we got let inn through a hidden door in the laundry room we got a very warm welcome from a highly service oriented and charming bartender named Rafe. Rafe served us some fantastic cocktails that both looked like a piece of art and tasted delicious. While serving us he explained in detail what we where getting and the history behind the cocktail. We were very well looked after throughout the whole stay and will definitely come back next time we are in Manchester and hope to run into Rafe again ☺️ A must visit in Manchester of you love high end cocktails 🤩

Based on reviews, I booked the table at The Washhouse, and it was definitely worth its hype. The novelty factor alone makes it a must-visit at least once. From the very beginning, the experience was well organized, the Top secret menu 😅, with our tables available right on time. The ambiance inside was lovely, filled with quirky and mysterious charm that added to the overall experience. The cocktails were amazing our group of four all enjoyed our drinks thoroughly. However, I found the cocktails to be a bit on the sweeter side for my personal taste. Not much snacks.. just crisps n olives Overall, The Washhouse delivers on its reputation with its unique concept and great drinks. It's a fantastic spot to enjoy a night out with friends.

The atmosphere was great, the theme was interesting and entertaining, but when it comes to overall price and what to expect, it isn’t worth it. Or it’s worth it for a one-off experience. It’s hard to justify shots that cost over six pounds each and fifteen pound cocktails that were okay. We left early because it didn’t really live up to our expectations. Overall, if you have the money it’s a great experience, but if spending over 20 pounds per person for a cocktail and a shot is too much then this isn’t a place I would recommend.

Average price is around £15 per cocktail, all drinks ordered were well presented but lacked flavour and were heavy on the ice which resulted in poor value for money. Another negative was that the couple next to us also ordered one of the same cocktails (The Simpsons drink), when they came out to serve it was noted that one drink had a mini donut attached on the straw whereas one drink didn’t even though both were the same drink and same price. The experience of the place is fair and the entrance is a novelty but definitely not worth the price as you can get much better elsewhere in Manchester for the same price if not less.. I won’t be going again.

A clandestine speakeasy bar, hidden behind the facade of a seemingly ordinary laundromat. This intriguing concept adds an element of mystery and exclusivity to the bar experience, making it a sought-after destination for those in the know. To gain entry to The Washhouse, patrons must first make a reservation via phone or online. Once confirmed, we received instructions on how to locate the concealed entrance within the laundromat. This secretive entrance sets the tone for the immersive experience that awaits inside. Stepping through the unassuming door, we are transported into a world of sophistication and intrigue. The interior exudes an air of vintage glamour, with dim lighting, plush furnishings, and stylish decor reminiscent of the Prohibition era. At the heart of the experience is the meticulously crafted cocktail menu, featuring an array of innovative concoctions designed to tantalize the taste buds. Each cocktail is expertly prepared by skilled mixologists using premium spirits, house-made infusions, and fresh ingredients sourced locally and globally. From classic cocktails with a modern twist to signature creations unique to The Washhouse, there's something to suit every palate and preference. Guests can expect to embark on a sensory journey with each sip, as flavors harmonize and evolve in unexpected ways. In addition to its exceptional cocktails, The Washhouse offers a curated selection of fine wines, craft beers, and spirits, ensuring there's a libation to satisfy every discerning drinker. The attentive and knowledgeable staff are passionate about their craft, providing personalized recommendations and attentive service to enhance the overall experience. Whether you're seeking an intimate evening with friends or a memorable date night, The Washhouse promises an unforgettable adventure behind its hidden doors.

If I could give it a zero, I would but we will settle at 1 star. First of all, it took them over half an hour to serve us - we were promised by a server that she would come back but she never did. The tables around us had the menu explained to them but we were not served and we had to grab the attention of a poor server who we saw getting ridiculed by her colleague after his dramatic movements caused her to drop a tray. Second of all, the drinks were extremely overpriced - even their classic cocktails were 'mid' to say the least. We paid £55 for four drinks, two of which were not enjoyed (don't bother trying their Long Island, their classic cocktails are charged the same as their 'specialities' and are less impressive). Lastly, after our bad experience, we politely asked for the service charge to be taken off the bill and explained our experience to the server, who then gave us an attitude for this and did not seem apologetic at all. On top of all of this, one of the servers SAT NEXT TO ME, ON MY COAT, whilst obnoxiously explaining the menu to the table next to us. Overall, very terrible experience. Was not happy.

Excellent service from the staff. In all honesty, it’s a bit of a novelty place and not much to entice a second visit. Would recommend for a visit though. However, we cut our visit short as none of our group were keen on using shared toilets which also puts us off going again. Better to have separate male/female facilities imo.

we visited the wash house as a recommendation from a friend, and what a nice place it is, the theming of this place is really cool, trying to get in is a laugh and makes you think, and when you go upstairs it is quite dark,the waiter was very helpful, and knowledgeable, the drinks menu was fun to read through, as it was based on conspiracy theories, there were a lot of cocktails to choose from, when we ordered after 10 mins or so of browsing, and when they arrived the waiter gave us a story regarding the drinks and what ingredients were in them, if your looking for food on here, it is a choice of general snacks only, crisps, nuts and olives i would defiantly recommend the wash house, and will be back again soon.

The perfect place to celebrate a special occasion or if your looking to treat yourself to nice night out! It has to be one of my favourite secret bars in Manchester. The menu is thoroughly thought through and makes your experience at The Washhouse even better. The cocktails are wonderfully quirky and completely different to your average bar. We missed out on the secret slide and the bathroom DJ when we there so we’ll definitely be going back for more!

Worth the hype more than anything I’ve seen before. Me and a friend booked a table on a whim and our experience was incredible. We were served by a lovely girl called Courtney who treated us perfectly and helped with any questions we had , I can not fault her service at all. Another staff member called Alex was also a huge help . The atmosphere here was top notch thanks to these two. Both deserving of exceptional praise and deserve thanks for our amazing night .

Great secret cocktail bar, reservations are required. Expensive but worth it.

Wasn’t impressed with this place after hearing so many good reviews. We paid £81 for 5 drinks which is steep even for Manchester City centre. Whilst the conspiracy theory menu is fun I would prefer to have the option of classic cocktails also

Unique, fun spot for some great cocktails. The whole bar is themed around mystery and deception, with conspiracy-themed drinks and hidden doors. The staff is lovely, and everything we ordered tasted (and looked) fab! Don't forget to book!

Went here for my boyfriend’s birthday and all the staff were very very nice, as were the cocktails. We’ve both never had drinks like these and they were all so cool to try out and my boyfriend also got a birthday shot and cake :) definitely coming back !!

Terrible. Been before and was ok. Drinks were flowing and staff friendly. Waitress today was rude, abrupt and aggressive. Had to ask for welcome drink twice. Food was just ok. Told you have 2 hour sitting. But told couldn’t order drinks after 80 minutes. Asked if we could order 2 then and was told no. Wouldn’t go back!

Hotpot in general is good food for cold and wet weather. But this hotpot itself I think is just okay. The vegetable soup is rich and light. The tomyum doesn’t really taste so tomyum. The price is reasonable for a hotpot.
