The Library Champagne Bar

Welcome to a unique Champagne bar in Manchester, located just a few minutes’ walk from Deansgate. The Library Champagne Bar is the perfect choice for an evening of cocktails, champagne, fine cheese and charcuterie, as well as à la carte classics such as corn-fed chicken club sandwich with spicy bacon mayonnaise and fried egg or a delicious lemon-infused battered cod with smoked oyster tartare, truffle petit pois and pommes frites.

 

The Library is also the perfect spot to enjoy one of Manchester’s best afternoon teas. A set of delicious sandwiches made using the most exceptional produce is followed by a handcrafted

selection of pâtisseries and scones, complemented by Newby Teas – the world’s most awarded luxury tea brand.
