Opening its doors back in 2013, The Dockyard has confirmed its space for itself as the vibrant heart of Media City, offering a dynamic space at the crossroads of charm and a great place to recharge. The team's love for beer and spirits surpasses mere passion - it's a genuine enthusiasm that they love to make guests know about in every interaction. With an extensive drinks selection that ranges from hop-infused concoctions to finely blended wines, the team at The Dockyard have everything you’ll need for a great time.
Beyond the bar, The Dockyard has a fully operational kitchen, crafting a menu that ebbs and flows with the seasons. While forever favourites like their stellar burger range, fresh salads, and vegan wraps remain constant, seasonal specials and Sunday roasts tantalise taste buds. It's a cultural hotspot, hosting engaging events like a lively pub quiz every other Wednesday, open mic nights, live bands, and soulful acoustic performances.
Situated in MediaCityUK, a modern digital district housing broadcasting giants and independent studios, The Dockyard is a great link to Manchester’s heritage. Emerging just a year after the relocation of BBC staff to the area, this rustic ale house stands as a rustic spot amongst the sleek architecture, evolving into an esteemed local institution that has witnessed the district's transformation.
At the core of The Dockyard is offering something new every now and again. The expansive main menu has plenty of inclusivity, featuring an assortment of dishes tailored to accommodate diverse preferences, including a wealth of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. For a true Sunday dining experience, they present a delicious roast dinner, available every Sunday from midday until 7.30pm.
