Often frequented by suited co-workers straight out of the office, Slug and Lettuce is the perfect place to unwind after a long day at your desk. With cheap deals all through the week, don't worry about your pennies. Put your feet up and chill with a drink in hand and an extensive drinks menu to choose from, across Didsbury, Deansgate, Piccadilly, Sale, Albert Square and Spinningfields locations.
Lock 91 is a lounge and late-night bar located in a 19th century lock keepers cottage and beautifully located on the Deansgate locks. Take a cosy armchair seat in the Reception Room or for those who like to play, head to Jack's Room, for pool, darts and a smoking terrace. It's one of the best bars in Manchester for some relaxation and isn't to be missed!
Whether you're looking for a space to work during the day or to relax after work for drinks, Northern Quarter's The Pen & Pencil is great for all occasions. The bare-brick walls and New York-style bar give the restaurant bar a chilled out atmosphere, and with day and evening menus, there's always something to nibble on.
