57 Thomas Street is a bar and pub in the Northern Quarter. Part of the Marble Brewery family which also includes Marble Beer House in Chorlton and Marble Arch, it's all about quality beer with real ale served straight from casks, as well as four rotating keg lines and plenty of bottles. Having scoured the UK, Belgium and Germany, the bar has an astonishing range, from light wheat beers to fuller stouts and porters.

There is a single, long table made from reclaimed floorboards, where you can cosy up with friends and tuck into deli platters of artisan meats and cheeses. If that's not enough, there's also chess, backgammon and pool tables.
