East Central

Good little tucked away jazz club! Also serves up good pizza. They have jazz bands every night except Mondays when it's closed at 10PM. There is free entry before 8PM. If you want to enjoy the jazz seated, seats have to be booked at least a few days beforehand.

Lass O'Gowrie

Dry Bar

Situated next door to Night and Day, and also offers good quality music from bands from around the North West and the UK. Larger and less claustrophobic and cheaper!, but less prestigious than Night and Day.

Flash Danish bar right in the heart of Piccadilly Gardens. A lot less student-y and pricier than the other KRO bars in Manchester, and has a good selection of European premium lagers and great food.

Copacabana

Latino bar/club serving up salsa and sangria.

Po Na Na

The Frog and Bucket

The venue to see bands before they make it big! Bands such as Oasis and Badly Drawn Boy have played here. Well worth a visit. Can be a little bit pokey inside, as it's not the biggest venue!

Harry's Bar and Paddy's Lounge

Retro Bar

Rock Kitchen

Socio Rehab

So cool it has no sign. One of the very best bars in Manchester.

Good, small music venue.
