Sat under the railway tracks on Whitworth Street West, the not-so-best-kept-secret of Manchester has mastered all areas of the nightlife scene; fusing nightclub, bar and restaurant elements together to encompass a cool yet sophisticated vibe.

And as it is the brainchild of the people behind Trof and The Deaf Institute, this comes as no surprise.

The interior is a mixture of uncovered brick walls against white stone tiles along with lots of low lighting and some cool artwork hanging on the walls, devising the perfect balance between sophisticated and casual.

And this ‘cooler older sibling’ vibe is carried through into the menu too, with food that’s all free range and locally sourced as well as an in-house bakery so you can be assured you are getting only the best quality food.  Expect the usual Brunch classics alongside some quirkier options such as shakshouka and ‘Fat Elvis’ pancakes.

    I visited the music venue and not the bar. I went to watch White Lies. It was a great venue but way too crowded, uncomfortably so. People were stood in the entrance hallway as they physically couldn’t get in the venue. It was impossible to move around and get to the bar or the toilets. Security staff were getting annoyed at people being in the way although there was nowhere to move to. Other than that the sound quality was great and it’s a small enough venue that where ever you are able to squish into and stand you will have a good view.

    Homophobic bouncer who wouldn’t give us his name or badge number. Kicked off at us and accused my partner of taking substances (they have adhd). We were let in by another bouncer who said we were all clearly fine. Went to the bar to ask for management and moments after the staff said it on the walkie talkies he came up and made us all leave the club. A few of us in the group attempted to contact gorilla for help following the night and never had a response
