I absolutely LOVED this place! What an amazing trade! And all 7 different cocktails I had were gorgeous and had its own special feature! Amazing place!

David Allardyce

Maple old fashioned was very tasty indeed. We went before dinner on a Saturday and found the service slow as everyone was ordering cocktails . The bar and drinks menus were really sticky too.

Laura Hinde

Loved the cocktails and the magic behind the smokey ones. The lunch time deal was good. You choose a meal off the menu and get 3 cocktails from the menu for £25

Yvonne Casey

I love the alchemist, especially sitting outside in the summer. Cocktails are amazing

Tastiest cocktails I've had and watching them being made makes the wait for them worth it

Great for lunch , after work, weekends - any time, actually. Their take on the classic Old Fashioned is the best in the city .

Ashley Dando

It's a good looking place, old fashion / negroni cocktails were too sweet. Everything was trying too hard. Why can't my drink just be served in a glass, I don't need to pour it from a flask first.

John Anderson

Amazing cocktails especially the caramelised rum punch

Bora Demiralan

For whiskey/bourbon lovers, try the Maple Manhattan

Buy yourself any spirit bottle and they'll keep it for you in the lockers above the bar for the next time you visit!

Super busy but great cocktails .

Janet Houghton

Cocktails are very different but very morish

Food looks alright & cocktails are spot on. Service can be a bit inconsistent but nice outdoor seating . Another bar that knows its mixology , Salford does it best.

Lacking in basic hygiene. Dead bugs stuck to the salad with the hummus and staff dont even apologise when it's pointed out to them! No toilet paper in the ladies by 6pm

Ria Amber Tesia

French Martinis rock.

Mish mosh for breakfast is hard to beat :)

Free wifi that actually works!

LUSH: lovely place for a few cocktails or a nice cold bottle of beer. Built by the same company that runs the Oast house. Good standards. Its on the pricey scale but well worth a visit! : Marks 9/10 - Russ McCulloch
