One of the best venues in Manchester. Had the pleasure of being both a punter and performer. They treat all artists well, no matter big or small. The stage, sound, lighting and vibes are all perfect. A fantastic team of people behind the scenes who keep the venue running are the unsung heroes of this fab venue. Both stages are clean and well kept and both have brilliant bars. I look forward to popping in for another gig soon. Keep up the great work!

Lovely venue, we came over from Ireland last month to see Brandy Clark and it was a terrific show. She never disappoints, and the acoustics, layout and crowd were all amazing. We had some drinks in bar beforehand, and yer man Akiron (apols if that's not the correct spelling!) makes THE most amazing cocktails and is a credit to the establishment, excellent customer service. Worth going in for a cocktail even if you're not attending an event.

Black Uhuru were well on top form, it really was a fantastic gig & the venue is great too, small & intimate & so much better than the big arenas, it makes you feel like you’re really part of something. I can’t recommend the venue enough & I’ll look out for more gigs there. Thank you for a great night

An Unforgettable Jazz Experience! What a fantastic show! The performance by this talented Jazz ensemble was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first note, they had the entire audience captivated. Each musician brought their own unique energy and skill to the stage, blending seamlessly to create a soulful, vibrant, and deeply moving performance. The improvisation was masterful, the rhythm tight, and the solos—absolutely stunning. You could feel the passion and joy in every piece they played. It wasn’t just a concert—it was an experience. The chemistry between the performers was palpable, and their love for the music truly shone through. Thank you for such a memorable evening. This was Jazz at its finest, and I can’t wait to see them perform again!

A decent-sized music venue in a very nice area of Manchester. Lots of surrounding bars and restaurants to go to before your gig. The venue was well-run, clean and the sound quality was good. Some of the upstairs area is quite awkward to find a good view from but the layout is quirky. Plenty of nearby parking options make it accessible to those travelling to the concert too.

Went for a March of the Mods day in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust and it was a great place for it. There were several different bands on,each with a quick efficient turnaround, so hardly any waiting inbetween acts. A long day(2 till 11)so had one of their pizzas part way through, which was nice and not too expensive. A really good choice of beers, including a couple of real ales too,also not horrendously priced and the staff were great. A good night all round.

First visit to this venue, I was very impressed. It’s in a good location in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. It’s a good space, sound and lighting is very good with a great choice of drinks at the bar. Staff are very efficient and as friendly as it’s possible to be when it’s a sellout concert! Despite the concert being sold out, it didn’t feel overly crushed and we found plenty of space on the mezzanine level. Door staff / security were very polite too.
