Manchester is well-known for its vibrant music scene, home to acts such as Oasis, The Smiths, and Joy Division, and home to numerous live music venues. Bars here tend to focus on offering a high quality selection of music, and Walrus is no exception. From the afternoon until the wee hours of the morning, you can find this ultra-cool spot blasting out bangers.
Walrus boasts a prime location in Manchester's Northern Quarter, right by Printworks, the Arndale Centre and Victoria Train Station, making it a top spot for after-work or post-shopping drinks. The restaurant/bar area features a dark ceiling which gives the space a clubby atmosphere (hinting at what's to come perhaps?), as well as red and gold accents, exposed brick and private booths available for reservation.
Follow on downstairs and you'll find the centre of the post 11pm action. The clubbing area, which plays host to some of Manchester's finest DJs, has a signature low ceiling, pillars, and a vast open space where you can bust out your finest moves all night long. Here you'll find discs of everything from house to garage and RnB spinning every weekend.
Walrus' exciting new menu has been specifically designed by executive head chef to offer a selection of hearty food packed with flavour. Expect some truly tempting sharing platters, as well as classic pizzas and fish and chips. Walrus have also announced a partenership with Love from the Streets, enabling them to provide customers with the finest street food Manchester has to offer.
Walrus is truly a beer lover’s paradise. Here you’ll find 15 different lines of beer as well as an impressive selection of bottles and cans, all available to drink in or to take away. If beer isn’t you thing, don’t worry: there’s also an expansive cocktail list and a well-thought-out wine list.
