Bar Epernay review

Bar Epernay manchester photo***Updated March 2010***
We recently went down to Epernay and are pleased to report that alongside the expected swish, champagne-oriented persona lies a much cooler, relaxed inner. A live sax player, great choice of drinks and a distinctly eclectic crowd dispelled any idea that this was purely a place for the wealthy and well groomed, or a once a year destination for when your parents are in town, and actually a very cool place to hang out.

Reports from readers below also seem to confirm this and Epernay seems to be slowly and subtly gaining a reputation for being a great place to go for a few drinks – or even a whole evening. With Cloud 23 at the Hilton nearby, by all accounts charging nearly double what Epernay does for cocktails (if you can get in), and the infamous Peter Street venues across the road, it seems to be a bit of a shining light in an area not known for such venues.

***Updated May 2009***

Those plans became less tentative and more pro-active with Epernay opening recently in The Great Northern Tower on Watson Street. The venue is on the first floor and delivers perhaps what you might expect of a champagne bar – classy surroundings and lots of champagne on offer.

Perhaps not likely to appeal much to the crowd frequenting the bars nearby (Brannigans, Chicago Rock, Walkabout et al), and even if it did one suspects most wouldn’t get in anyway, Epernay will surely be looking to attract custom from the nearby convention centre/Midland Hotel/posh restaurants around Deansgate.

Had a lovely night in the bar last week. The door staff are friendly, so are the bar staff. And the prices are really reasonable - we were very impressed! Please don't ruin it by letting all the idiot lot in that are usually out around that area!

Had a lovely night here on Saturday - great drinks selection at a reasonable price and it was great to be able to take advantage of the terrace on a rare sunny evening! I second the comment above about keeping the usual crowd from this area out, please!

Have been here 3 or 4 times now for a quick drink after work and on a night out with friends. Very nice surroundings, friendly door staff, even friendlier waiting/bar staff and prices are very reasonable, cheaper than HN. This bar should continue to be a success as long as they don't start letting in the worng people lol
Keep it up guys!

Visited epernay for the first time last night, a Thursday, wasn't very busy but we loved it. Champagne cocktails are a steal at £6 each, last week had one in Cloud 23 at £11 and Harvey Nicks £12! Will def be back soon
