Bar21

Bar21 is a quirky movie themed bar and club in Manchester's Northern Quarter. Split over two floors, the walls are lined with posters, memorabilia and eye-catching props. 

There's a large selection of spirits, beers, ales and wines on offer and cocktails are a bargain at two for £10. Grab a pitcher for around £12 and if you're not drinking, a selection of mocktails are available on request. The club at Bar21 is open every Friday and Saturday night and hosts local Manchester DJs who play a selection of indie hits. Entry is free.

Food is served until 9pm every day, and everything on the menu is made using quality locally sourced ingredients. The food is classic American pub grub like burgers, nachos, chicken wings and pizza. And if you're nursing a hangover from the night before, pop down to Bar21 for an all day breakfast or a bacon butty.
