Great place for a gig. Mostly standing, but a number of seats sloping up at the back for those who struggle standing for three hours. The sound quality is good. Decent bar, expensive, but so are most bars in Manchester. I like this place.

i attended the ‘hello darling’ queer party here. everything from the security to the ticket attendees and the actual event itself was a 10/10 experience. i’ve been to the venue before and i will definitely go back! side note. i would recommend ear plugs as it’s a small venue it’s very loud :)

Went here for a gig. Turned out to be great. Really good place, I really like when historical buildings can be used for something else. Some good architectural features if you look for them. I’d definitely return to see more bands here.
