There seemed another bit round the corner from the loos, but it was empty so I didn't bother. To be honest, it all looked much the same - the place is a former retail premises, so there isn't a great deal they can do structurally.

I'm here now with a pint of something or other - I just picked at random, and it's ok. Think it was called Faithless.

I not too subtly took a photo, so judge for yourself. I was pleased that there is at least one beard visible.

The bloke behind the bar sounded like he was from somewhere posh - home counties perhaps. A hipster who can't grow a beard I guess.

you took you picture from the same spot i sat. (mind you there isnt a huge amount of room). bloke who served me was deffo beardy the beer 2nd in from the right on the pump was v nice but cant remember what it was called

“A working men’s club fits with that aesthetic. I don’t think it’s something that’s ever been done in Manchester.

“We’re not taking the mick out of working men’s clubs, it’s more about a pastiche of them.

“We’re wanting to recreate that really British feel from the 1970s era, but aiming to get people in their 20s.”

I might start a war in the comments between common and night n day, claiming the wmc concept has been stolen from them.
