While you're staying with us at your serviced apartment in Manchester, make the most of your time here by soaking in the incredible environment. This city is home to some of the best drinking spots in the country, with little bijou cocktail bars, slick drinking dens, and hundreds of exciting and eccentric venues to select from. Don't be overwhelmed by the many options; we've got you covered with our hand-picked list of the best beer gardens below.
The Briton's Protection
The Briton's Protection is located at 50 Great Bridgewater Street in Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 5LE.
Anyone who knows anything about Manchester pubs will start waxing lyrical about The Briton's Protection right away. It's one of Manchester's oldest pubs, if not the oldest, and it boasts a beautiful, sun-drenched outside space where you can relax and drink beers and whiskies with friends. For all you beer garden enthusiasts, this is a must-try.
Common Bar
Common Bar is located at 39-47 Edge Street in Manchester, Greater Manchester, M4 1HW.
We are huge supporters of the Northern Quarter's pedestrianisation and Common's section on Edge Street and think it is one of the nicest in the city. It's quiet enough to escape the Ibiza strip vibe of neighbouring areas, yet it's packed with trendy 20-30somethings, precisely as in the NQ's early days.
The New Oxford
The New Oxford is located in Salford, Manchester, M3 6DB, 11 Bexley Square.
The New Oxford is located on Bexley Square, which is in the heart of Salford's most attractive and fast-growing community. It's a traditional old-school bar with a wide selection of beers to sample while relaxing on the outdoor seats. Expect courteous service, friendly patrons, and plenty of open areas to enjoy the sun while it's out, as well as protecting umbrellas when it's not.
The Corner Boy
The Corner Boy is located at 21 Hilton St in Manchester, M1 1JJ.
The Corner Boy is a fantastic location for outside beverages in the Northern Quarter, and it was one of our favourite discoveries once lockdown was lifted last summer. The drink selection is one of the best in the city (the rum cocktail is a must-try), the service is one of the nicest in the city, and the outside dining area is a beautiful sun trap.
The Eagle Inn
The Eagle Inn is located at 18-19 Collier Street in Salford, M3 7DW.
The Eagle Inn, a fantastic Salford pub, has substantially enlarged its outside drinking space, both front and back, making it ideal for a fast half or settling in for a session with like-minded friends.
GRUB Manchester
GRUB Manchester is located at 50 Red Bank, Cheetham Hill, Manchester, M4 4HF.
By some measures, Grub is the most excellent venue in the Green Quarter, with plenty of outside seating to enjoy food and drink on a bright day and shelter when it's raining. Why not go if you haven't already?
