Sugar Buddha Deansgate Locks

Sugar Buddha Deansgate Locks is a stylish party palace and shisha bar in Manchester. Fun, affordable, and chic, the lock-side bar has a policy of ‘free entry and free shisha’ making it a hit with Manchester's late night revellers. The interior has something of a quirky opium den vibe, gold statues dot the bar, while dim red and pink hues beam out from oriental panelling, a dark teak woods run throughout. The plush decor is enhanced with luxe features from comfy leather sofas and padded walls to opulent chandeliers and swanky VIP spaces. The tunnel upstairs is the perfect pod for an exclusive private party, while booths are available for smaller groups to go VIP. 

The music policy at Sugar Buddha sides heavy on R'n'B, with resident and special guest DJs churning out the tunes seven nights a week. In summer, the outdoor terrace is a chilled place to sit, sip and watch the sun go down over Deansgate Locks. The crowd are a blend of weekend warriors and the young mid-week party posse, out for the raucous Deansgate Locks atmosphere.

At the bar is a wide selection of thrifty tipples with ever-popular J Bombs, just £1. The cocktail menu is a mouthwatering collection of classics, starting from £6.50 with Sidecars, Cosmos, Mohitos and Mules. Then of course, there's the shisha, free throughout the evening, with 0% tobacco herbal hookah making it a guilt-free indulgence. Cocktails, shisha and cool tunes - Sugar Buddha is a cracking Manchester bar for a night of serious partying.
