About

One of Manchester's late opening Gay bars. Opens from 5pm everyday with chill out and a relaxing atmosphere, picking the beat up at around 10pm until we eventually close in the early hours. With Happy Hour from open until 10pm, house doubles, bar snacks and great music, its the place for gay men to visit. A men only space that welcomes real men and their admirers.

Dingy basement bar with dark corners, with leather seats too slippy to sit on. Good drinks on offer though and the music alright.

This place is a little hidden gem in the heart of the Gay Village.It’s a small gay bar with a cosy atmosphere and some good music. The bar is one of those places with soft lights that allow you to relax and focus on conversations, rather than being overwhelmed by bright flashes of light and loud music.It’s an open-minded bar with some lovely cruising opportunities, but what really makes the difference is the staff! They are absolutely incredible. I went there for the first time and they made me feel at home straightaway.I will definitely pay many more visits to them.

Underground vibe. Very chilled. Super friendly, welcoming staff. It isn’t pretty or trendy but it’s authentic. Quite small /intimate. Friendly crowd.

This is a men's only bar and also it has steep stairs to the bar as it is in an older building and in the basement when I was there it was quite dark (this being my first time at this bar) not been in this type of place before but I will go back with my mates.

Nice and welcome atmosphere, friendly staff at the bar and good humour, is a place to chill out, makes friends and maybe more .... a place to end the night, mens only

Underground men-only bar, that's been here for years! Very relaxed, it can really vary from being fairly quiet to packed at weekends, especially later on. The music here seems to have changed, but may just depend upon the bar staff. There's less quirky alternative music when I last visited, and more regular dance/chart music instead.

Underground men-only bar, that's been here for years! Great atmosphere, very relaxed, it's sometimes packed at weekends, especially later on. And it's one of the few places in the Village that has variable music. I've heard anything from retro eighties and nineties pop, through to ska, rock, punk, metal, indie and electronica in here.

It's ok for a late night drink, but NOT a place to take a 'straight' friend. The place is pleasant enough, the staff are great, but once one of the regular cruisy customers has his mind set on you (whatever your gender preference) he won't take no for an answer. Avoid the dark corners at all costs, unless you ARE on the cruise yourself.

I just love this place, men only and open until the early hours. It's a nice getaway if one too many hen parties have moved in on your evening. I do love the hens but here's good to escape them.
