COVID-Secure arrangements and booking information for both Indoor and Outdoor bookings:

Arcane Bar and Arcane on the Alley has been appropriately risk assessed in line with government Guidelines to ensure it is ‘COVID-Secure”.

Regulations can be subject to change, but notable examples are the requirements to ensure that (subjection to national exemptions):

Social distancing requirements are followed.
Outdoor gatherings are limited to 30 people.
Indoor gatherings are limited to 6 people or 2 households (each household can include a support bubble, if eligible).
New guidance on meeting friends and family emphasises personal responsibility rather than government rules. Instead of instructing you to stay 2m apart from anyone you don’t live with, you are encouraged to exercise caution and consider the guidance on risks associated with COVID-19 and actions you can take to help keep you and your loved ones safe. Remember that the risks of close contact may be greater for some people than others and in some settings and circumstances, there will be specific guidance that you will need to follow even when you are with friends and family.
Prohibitions on mixing must be adhered to and Arcane does not allow any mixing of members of different groups or booking groups. This is for the safety of all customers and staff.
Necessary information is recorded to support Test and Trace.
The appropriate use of face coverings.
As there is limited seating, we are offering bookings in slots up to 2 hours per booking. We will try our best to accommodate longer booking times and space for walk-ins on the day. Please email bookings@arcanebar.com for bookings exceeding 2 hours.
The requirement to order, eat and drink while seated (‘table service’) will remain in place.
Customers must still wear face coverings, except when seated at a table to eat or drink (must still wear face coverings when entering / walking to the table, visiting WCs, etc.)
We will be using a mobile ordering & pay service so you can sit back, relax and we will bring the drinks to you. Unfortunately, we won’t be accepting cash at this moment. This is for your safety.
Toilet facilities will be provided in the bar for our customers.
All guests must provide the necessary information to support Test and Trace. It is now a legal requirement that we do so.
We operate a ‘no show’ policy which means if you don’t show for your booking and haven’t let us know beforehand, we will charge a fee of £5 per person. Your card details are taken at the point of booking, but you will NOT be charged if you show for your booking or cancel. This is PCI compliant and within GDPR guidelines.

Arcane on the Alley (Outdoors):

The full drinks menu from the bar including the cocktail list will be made available for the outdoor area, we just have to serve in polycarbonate glassware due to being outdoors. Nethertheless, they still go down the same way!
This is a temporary, pop-up style outdoor space so please remember to wrap up warm and dress appropriately for the lovely Mancunian weather.
