Arcane Cocktail Bar Manchester

We might be hidden away in the basement of an old Victorian building, but Arcane Cocktail Bar Manchester is no secret. Word’s out we’re one of the most eclectic, bold and inspired bars to join the Manchester scene with a cocktail menu to match.

"I felt like I'd discovered a secret bar, it was like going into a cosy living room, with candle light and lovely cocktails, beers and gins."

Cheryl Johnstone - Facebook

"Cosy, exclusive atmosphere with table service provided by knowledgeable artisans"

Paul J. Rogerson - Facebook

"A little hidden gem on a rainy Sunday afternoon, amazing unique cocktails."
