Top Manchester Dining Experiences

For events at our venue, your ticket includes: • Welcome aperitivo cocktail • An interactive cocktail masterclass with our mixologist, featuring live demonstrations, tastings, and one cocktail personally crafted by each participant • Italian-style sharing dinner with a naturally vegan selection (including olives, arancini, mixed vegetables, bruschette and more) Please note: some cocktails are demonstrated by our mixologist and may be shared between participants depending on group size.

Start with a welcome drink and a reserved table before stepping behind the bar to craft your own cocktails. With expert guidance, you’ll shake, pour, and garnish two cocktails of your choice. Expect prosecco on arrival, hands-on fun, and plenty of laughs — it’s interactive, lively, and made for groups.

Enjoy a relaxed 90-minute Sicilian food and wine pairing experience in the heart of Manchester’s Northern Quarter. The experience begins with a welcome glass of Prosecco and a Sicilian aperitivo, followed by a selection of four good-quality Sicilian wines—two white and two red—carefully paired with traditional regional dishes. Dessert is accompanied by a Sicilian liqueur. This is an informal dining experience, not a sommelier-led class, technical wine lesson or tutored tasting. The focus is on enjoying the relationship between authentic Sicilian food and carefully selected wines in a warm and relaxed atmosphere. The experience includes a chef-selected set menu. The same menu is served to the entire table, and guests do not select dishes from the à la carte menu. Food substitutions are not available. Please note: unfortunately, we cannot accommodate any food allergies or intolerances, including mild or trace-level sensitivities.
