Manchester235 bar reviews

"Manchester's original Super Casino"
	Manchester235 boasts an amazing cocktail menu with everything you could possibly want including Pisco Sour, a rareity in Manchester. The Porn Star Martinis are highly recommended as is the Caipirinha list (especially when they're made by some of the Brazilian bar star). The prices are ridiculously low for cocktails of such quality (just £4.95) and it would be hard to think of many bars in England, let alone Manchester, that offers such high end cocktails at such low end prices. Pints of Fosters cost only £2 and bottles of wine start at just £9.50.
	Manchester235 offers table service from some of the best looking waitresses in town. All the staff are very friendly, from the guys behind the bar through to the waitresses and even the croupiers at the casino tables.
	The atmosphere in 235 is excellent. Very lively, especially the later the night goes on. There's often live music or DJ's. When we visited, people were dancing to the likes of Chic, Prince and James Brown or enjoying a flutter on the roulette or card tables.
	Housed inside the huge Great Northern Warehouse, the exposed brick walls add a real Mancunian feel to proceedings. the lighting is amazing, especially around the steel ceiling support and the bar itself, which is truely out of this world with an ice white backdrop. The casino is actually seperate from the bar but close enough for members of your group to visit without having to give up their seats in the bar.
	Manchester 235 boasts probably the largest toilets in any Manchester bar, yet they are extremely modern and clean. The gents toilet has arty naked photographs of a girl smoking a cigar.
	Whilst obviously part of the huge casino, the bar at Manchester 235 is certainly a separate entity and many people visit for the fine cocktails and great atmosphere without even venturing near the gaming tables. You'd be hard pushed to find many better cocktails in town and the plush decor and 5am license make it a must visit bar. To drink in the bar, you don't need to be a member of the casino, although you're encouraged to join as there's many benefits when you show your membership card each time you order. Manchester may have had the planned Super Casino scrapped but Manchester235 fills that void superbly - this was Manchester's original Super Casino!
