MajkaAugust 24, 2014My favourite. This beautifully decorated venue serves food and drink in its cafe during the day and offers a jam-packed calendar of music events throughout the year. Do recommend.
Dave MilneDecember 21, 2018Great little venue upstairs in a historic building that’s an excellent place to see a band. Also a nice bar serving decent beer on the floor below & a decent little room for hire in the basement.
Great atmosphere. Has a large selection of vegan food (burgers, curries, nachos etc.) Check the specials board each day.
Phat BuoySeptember 9, 2014Great venue for gigs. The floor upstairs literally bounces! Expensive drinks so get tanked up before u arrive or bring a hip flask
Mike CJuly 8, 2012Sweet potato chips in a bowl with mayo and sweet chilli dips are amazing with any beer. Well worth a slurp!
Sam MJuly 29, 2015Good venue, sound was nice and clear, nice terrace too. Not great beer selection though better than many venues. Bar was a bit expensive, not unexpected.
Rachel ClaytonFebruary 1, 2011Food has become a bit basic recently but still reasonably priced. Loyalty card 2-4-1 offers on cocktails withdrawn too. Victims of the recession?! Bring back spicy fries!!
Michael HoldsworthOctober 26, 2014Good venue and great music. But don't drink the real ale. Far too cold!
Adam StroyanNovember 24, 2013Brilliant venue. Great food. Fantastic gig. Top night out. Will be back
Chris PearceJuly 27, 2010Hands down the best music venue Manchester has to offer. Great drinks and grub on offer too. Treat yourself to the "famous" Trof Burger + Chips.
Went on a wednesday and one of the barmen was extremely rude to myself and my friend on two seperate occasions. All other staff are very friendly though, especially during the day time.
Simon CornwellOctober 17, 2011Cheap as chips cocktails! And Revolver on 3rd Sat on the month is an awesome 60s / Psychadelia night Read more
Luke FosterMarch 28, 2016Charming venue but a shame they can't be bothered to provide decent toilets for customers, cubicle doors don't lock! Avoid the Trof beer too- Adam StroyanFebruary 20, 2014Food discounted if you are going to a gig at the venue. Result. Cracking food too.
Alex WaddingtonAugust 12, 2010Have a look at the list of upcoming gigs - watching a gig is cosy and intimate, like being in your front room.
Kelan ThomasMarch 10, 2013Goo party 2nd Saturdays for amazing 90s indie DJs, fantastic bar venue space
David PearsFebruary 24, 2011Touring bands: ask to use the upstairs flat. Sleeps 6/8 with a kitchen - save £'s for more beers downstairs.
Haw Alv AroAugust 17, 2012And a music venue has to have as WiFi password the name of a band... Yeah! ÇP·$
Don't get real ale.. They'll charge you a fiver for it!
- Lewis SmithNovember 18, 2017They didn't have any real ales and what they did have were served in plastic cups
When Juicy do a Friday/Saturday night you know its going to be a banger.
Barman last night: "you'll have to wait for cocktails, I'd rather just pour beer mate." There's customer service for you. Not cool.
Sarah HAugust 22, 2010check out the dolly wallpaper in the toilets and the discussion about fur jackets on the toilet door :)

"Balcony is reserved for disabled people who have requested space or a seat in advance, saves getting damaged by the crowd downstairs. You need to put in an accommodation request when booking tickets."
