JW Lees opened the now multi award winning Rain Bar in August 1999. It wasn’t always a bar though. It started life as a Victorian canal side warehouse. It then became an umbrella factory and until its development was a dry cleaning business.
Manchester is famous for many things, cotton, the ship canal, manufacturing, the Guardian newspaper, United, City, Coronation Street and Oasis. Throughout history one thing has remained constant about reports on Manchester, the weather. Hence the name Rain Bar.
Rain Bar’s stylish and contemporary function bar is the perfect venue for private parties and is multi-functional for all types of celebrations. With an outside terrace/balcony the function room can be used for BBQ’s in the summer and all year round for wedding and civil partnership celebrations. We can cater for any type of party and can provide a range of buffet and food packages to suit your needs.

January 2024I recently visited The Rain Bar in Manchester with a large group of 16 friends. It was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff were very welcoming and provided an excellent service. The food was lovely. The menu offered a great selection which catered to all our tastes and preferences, this includes the presentation. Compliments to the Chef for this. What truly set The Rain Bar apart, was the exceptional service provided by the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that every member of our party felt attended to. The staff was attentive, friendly, and displayed a genuine enthusiasm for their work. It was evident that they took pride in providing excellent service, and it made our visit all the more enjoyable. In conclusion, I highly recommend The Rain Bar in Manchester. The delicious food, outstanding service, and inviting atmosphere make it an excellent place to visit in the heart of Manchester. The Rain Bar is a definite must visit. Thank you to Alex King and his staff for the exceptional service.
