About Venue
Housed in the Great Northern Warehouse, Manchester235 offers more event options under one roof than anywhere else in the city. Dine at James Martin Manchester’s private Chef’s Table or take over the 170-seat restaurant, sip cocktails in the leather-lined Icon VIP Bar, book a Main Bar booth or private Poker Lounge, or convert our hidden suite—stage, HD screen and all—for conferences, awards or parties of up to 175.
Booking is refreshingly simple: meet the food-and-drink minimum and the space is yours—no extra charges for room, AV or service. We’re strictly 18+ with a Challenge 25 ID check, and a smart dress code applies.

Katie from the cash desk was extremely helpful, went above and beyond in overcoming an issue that most others would shy away from. Likewise the manager Graham was very polite and accommodating in making sure it was a good night.

I came for a night out on the Saturday just gone, and there was a lovely tall with braids bouncer/security guard, Daniel, who was extremely friendly and approachable. He took care me and my group of friends throughout the evening. Will definitely visit again for Daniel as he made us all feel comfortable and safe.
