Atlas Bar in Manchester

Nice friendly staff. One waiter Simon was outstanding in helping us with our bikes. Would thoroughly recommend 👌

Popped in for a few beers. Great place!

Had a few drinks lovely vibe great staff nice and warm outside.

Me and my colleagues have enjoyed atlas for months since we relocated our office to round the corner,since doing so our Christmas night out a couple of us recommended atlas to be our prime designated place for our annual event! We could not be happier with the services provided by everyone on shift on the 19th December, I have asked for a list specifically and the names include, Seb, Megan, Simon, Kane, Ella, Natalie B and Rosie. What a great team who support each other and provide an amazing environment. Simon is stand out staff member for the night for me but the whole team are incredible

Great atmosphere with an excellent bacon butty and a really delicious margarita - would highly recommend

I’ve lived just around the corner from Atlas for the past five years, but it wasn’t until a couple of months ago that I realised what I’d been missing. Every time I step inside, I’m greeted by such a warm and positive atmosphere from the staff — even the friendly man at the door on weekends. A special shoutout to the manager, who calls everyone “Darl” (I’m so sorry I’ve forgotten your name, but you know who you are — cool Christmas earrings). It’s rare to find a place where someone remembers your name after just your second takeaway, but you not only remembered mine, you even noticed I forgot my coffee last time. That level of personal service feels like a lost art, especially in such a busy spot like Atlas. Despite how hard the staff are working, they always find the time to greet you with a kind, genuine smile. The team does an incredible job, and that’s even before we talk about the food. I usually order takeaway, and it’s consistently on time, perfectly hot, and absolutely delicious every time. If you haven’t tried Atlas yet, I can’t recommend it enough. You’ll be supporting a fantastic local business with amazing people who put their heart into what they do every single day. Give it a try — you won’t regret it!

The chicken burger is delicious and the fries are homemade. We found it after taking the train at the Manchester Oxford stop and we loved it

Just had a glass of wine, but the place is so lovely

The halloumi thingy is one of the best brunch meals I’ve ever eaten! And the service was excellent, super friendly.

Really like this pub. Inside and outside space. Good choice of drinks. Friendly staff.

Vino aquí el fin de semana pasado fue la primera parada de nuestra gira navideña. Las decoraciones navideñas eran preciosas. Sólo vinieron a tomar unas copas. El personal era agradable y amable y el bebé Guinness era tan hermoso como siempre

Went here 12th Nov. To meet my friends for lunch highly recommend the staff are lovely and friend meals were lovely and the gin platter £10 for 3.done up lovely and heaters in the back where you can chill too.going again tomorrow

Did not get food, but spent the night getting cocktails and Tom did not disappoint. Every drink made perfectly and served with some banter. 10/10 recommend.

I had a fantastic experience at Atlas! The full English breakfast was delicious and perfectly cooked, and the latte was just right. Sadie provided excellent service—friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. A great spot for a hearty meal and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Great place for a weekend brunch! Iliana has provided an amazing and warm service! Her beer recommendations are right on spot too!

This is our first visit to this bar for a little while and we were very impressed indeed. It has been modernised since we last there and they've made a really good job of it without a doubt. It is located in the shadow of Deansgate station meaning you can go in before or after your train if you have time. You won't be disappointed. They do a wide range of drinks at decent city centre prices and there's a lot of choice. The service was fast and friendly and we had a good laugh with the bar staff who were very engaging. The bar itself has a lot to offer. It has low lighting which creates a laid-back and relaxed atmosphere and it's nice to sit inside. It's also really nice too Sit out at the back under the heaters and take in the breathtaking views of the new skyscrapers which are you dropping.

Server was lovely, however food was severely sub-par and left me feeling queasy afterwards. Will not return.

A fantastic spot for brunch, everything was delicious and well presented!

Iliina proporcionó un servicio increíble en todo el brunch sin fondo. La comida viene muy recomendable. ¡Animaría encarecidamente a cualquiera que quiera comer aquí!

Great delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere. Sockets and USB slots for charging mobile phones are available under the benches. Toilets not barrier-free.

Lovely staff, the latte was delicious and the carrot cake was great. Really cool place, I love the lighting, very unique.

Always an absolute pleasure to visit. I come here regularly, and the food and coffee are consistently outstanding, all at a very reasonable price. It's truly hard to find anywhere that compares!

Excellent bar for a cheeky afternoon cocktail

Fabulous bottomless brunch, our server Iliana was very friendly attentive and fabulous

Iliana was fantastic. Thank you for a great afternoon.

Excellent bar. Great choice of gins at a good price and great service.

Called in for drinks after a meal elsewhere. Doorman was really friendly, welcomed us and opened the door. Bar was very busy. Two or three people deep and no order at all, several people were served before me including a chap who was behind me, he seemed to know the staff member which is t on. Drinks were reasonably priced for Manchester and the atmosphere was spot on.

Just popped in for a couple of drinks after a meal out and it was very busy. Great atmosphere and funny friendly door staff. The bar staff were trying their best but it was very busy so there was quite a wait. Very friendly once we got served.

We to meet a friend for some drinks very nice bar with lots to choose from. Nice music and great service. Will come again soon.

Lovely little bar right next to Deansgate train station. My only criticism is where the toilets are, up a flight of steep stairs. I'm not disabled but I do have a dodgy hip, didn't like to ask if they had an easier to access loo.

If you are close by and in need of some food then please try Atlas out. The service here is amazing with the food to match. This place uses local sourced food supporting the community and has plenty of options to choose from meaning they should have something for everyone and are very accommodating to allergies as well as slight modifications to the food. I love this place and will never stop going ❤️

Excellent place for Gin!!! Try the paddles, a great experience:)

Thanks to Rosie on the bar for sorting out a big order for us, nice bar great atmosphere

Staff, food, drinks, atmosphere all brilliant. Every time I come here it's the same consistent standards. Really great place to visit

We recently held a work event at Atlas bar and the venue and staff were amazing. We have hired out the terrace area which despite being September is still the perfect area with lots of heaters and under covers. Was lovely and warm with lots of space which was great as we had over 100 people at our event. The food was also amazing. We ordered a mixture of food and the staff just kept bringing this out and circulating the same. However, the staff were the highlight of the night. They went above and beyond and nothing was too much for them. They kept in constant communication with us leading up to the event and also on the night. We had a tab behind the bar and the staff provided us with a stamp so select members of staff was able to use the tab which was great. Even until the very end of the night the staff all had a smile on their faces and so friendly and helpful. We held the same event last year and that was again an amazing night. The event was that much of a success we have already asked to book it again for next year. We can’t wait to come back!

It's surprisingly nice! I have walked past this place most days and thought it was a fancy restaurant that was open in the evening and you probably need to book and pay a fortune. One rainy afternoon we popped in mainly because it was dry and on the way to the station. It opens out into a wonderful open much larger space with a garden balcony. The service is at your table with friendly waiters interested in what you are doing and eating and reasonably priced food. My avocado salad was amazing and I never enjoy salad so that's saying something. The lunchtime atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable. Will definitely be back and if you haven't been you really should go. Even if you aren't eating they have a really good drinks selection.

Me and my husband had a long awaited day/night out on Friday to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We started our day in Atlas bar and so glad we went there first! There was a great atmosphere and the gin paddle boards were amazing. What made it so special though was the service! Naomi was truly fantastic, her knowledge of the gins was fascinating and truly made it a day to remember. Really enjoyed our "Gin Wag" too! Thank you for starting our day in the most perfect way!

Really nice modern bar in the Deansgate hub. Very pleasant outdoor seating area with a great selection of drinks of all kinds, particularly gins. Good night out

Didn't eat here so originally put a 3* for food as no option for n/a

Very friendly staff top quality food and comfortable surroundings a special thank you for doing me a chocolate milkshake

Popped in for coffee and homemade cake which was deeelicious! The staff were lovely, pleasant and caring. THANK YOU

Had a pint here. Sat outside next to some bamboo, feeling a bit tropical. A pleasant experience.

Avocado burger🍔It was delicious😋 The atmosphere was good, and the staff were kind and comfortable.

Turned around breakfast for 15 of us quick time. Fresh and hit the spot!

Brilliant atmosphere, although on my visit the weather was hot. I sat out in the sun and topped up my tan. The only gripe I had was the drinks were, to me anyway very expensive. But I will visit again soon

Went here for a friend’s bottomless brunch and they didn’t disappoint. Considering there were 10 of us at this brunch they didn’t falter on any drink orders. Most of us left decently inebriated. Food was good, though nothing to shout about. Service and cocktails were top notch and I couldn’t believe it was only £35 each.

Nice little find right by the train station

Relaxed drinks, warm atmosphere, attentive staff, all in all a great bar to visit, day or night.

We are frequent visitors to Atlas Bar and every time we arrive we are greeted by very friendly staff and are always made to feel welcome. The food is delicious 😋. Naomi is fantastic and a credit to the bar, she always goes above and beyond . Would highly recommend. UPDATE: I visited here today with 12 other friends from work. I would like to thank Naomi and all the staff who always make my visit special. They are always extremely helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble. The atmosphere is fantastic it has a lovely vibe and the food is simply gorgeous. Keep up the good work.

Came in during my lunch break, didn’t know what food in the area was good, and I have just discovered a brilliant place to get breakfast! Lovely staff, very friendly and very good food.

Massive gin emporium. Fabulous place in the city centre.

Always the best breakfast here when I'm visiting!

Great bar, great drinks, great food, great music, great staff and great vibes.

Lovely breakfast and really friendly staff!

Called at the Atlas Bar for a late night G&T to try their paddle boards as we had heard about the many gins the bar had but never visited. My husband and I both had Masons boards which had Original, Pear & Pink Peppercorn, Orange & Lime Leaf gins and a tonic. They were excellent value for money and the gins were tasty. The bar was busy on a Saturday evening but we found a table outside and the bar had a good vibe. Will return next time in Manchester!

It's always a great place , good choice of Gins.

Lovely quiet Monday evening watching Manchester go by at the busy crossroads with The Hilton towering over us. Great cocktails and a good choice of beers.

My favourite bar in Manchester.

Lovely bar staff. Cocktails are nice and there is an impressive gin selection too.

Very nice coffee cappuccino no food although it looks lovely nice atmosphere an surroundings just near deansgate railway station an metrolink will have food next time we go attentive staff clean inside nice tables an seats comfy nice colours too not too busy

Very nice place for breakfast! Coffee was extremely delicious and the food was very tasty. Simon, our waiter was friendly and polite. Coming back soon🫶🏻

Perfect lunchtime get-together 👌 😋 😍 👏

Iliana served up the perfect recommend rum and coke. Seat in the sunshine with a welcoming atmosphere what more can you want.

Lovely beer garden - had a good laugh with the bar staff, especially Iliana. 10/10.

My son and I needed to kill some time and thought this looked like a nice place from the outside, even better on the inside and we were lucky with the weather so sat outside where there is a gorgeous outside seating area, lovely atmosphere and music was just perfect for a summers days. The bar is out of this world with so much to offer and the Gin selection is amazing. I was served by Naomi and she was so friendly and helpful. She asked me what gins I liked, I couldn’t decide so she suggested the Paddleboard of 3 different single shot gins with tonic so I could try different flavours. We had such a lovely afternoon, the gins she suggested were perfect and this will be a regular place to visit when we are in the city. Thank you Naomi for your lovely conversation and advice, it was a pleasure. And thanks to the gins I went to Selfridges and bought a very expensive pair of sunglasses, no regrets 🤪

Outstanding service from Iliana. So friendly and outgoing. She made our bottomless brunch memorable and fun for everyone. Highly recommend

Really nice breakfast barmcake..fresh well presented helpful friendly staff..

Great cafe and venue. Brilliant to meet Andy Burnham here recently too.

Good food, service and a nice secluded outside area at the rear - lovely on a dry, sunny day.......as they all are in Manchester!

As I sit here, wiping the final remnants of the most amazing breakfast from the corner of my mouth, I thought it worthy to put a review on for this wonderful place. Extremely tasty breakfast (whatever they did with the tomatoes... I will one day hunt down for myself!), super friendly service and lovely chilled Thursday morning vibe. Looking forward to my next visit when I am in Manchester next!

Great bar with so many gins to choose from. And they serve the best cider - inches! The beer garden is a hidden gem on a sunny day.

Beautiful spot for having a few drinks in the sun, the outdoor area is great, lots of comfortable seating

Naomi was amazing. She talked us through all the gins and their history. We walked in a bit drunk just wanting a drink; but we left feeling a little passion for gin. 10/10 recommend, it was a great experience to learn about a new drink from a passionate professional

Many happy memories of this bar back in the day. Nice courtyard out the back. Still worth a visit.

Probably the most friendly doorman and efficient bar team in Manchester! Awesome (secret) terrace too, but don’t tell anyone! Great Guinness and the toilet doors are something to behold! 🙏👌

Not bad, could be better and clean, tidy up,

Busy Saturday evening but quick service, good choice for lager but slim for bitters.

Went for a midday brunch date with my boyfriend. We had the full English, eggs royale and oat iced lattes. Everything was spot on! They clearly use premium products such as the sausages and baked beans. The atmosphere was lovely, warm and inviting. We were served by Eliana and Ned who were both very helpful and engaging. We will definitely be back and looking forward to see what the place is like for drinks in the evening :)

Excellent food and amazing service from Iliana. Huge compliment to Seb who had to deal with an obnoxious, rude customer, whose child ran into the kitchen. Having ask the mum to get the child to sit down he was subjected to a rant of abuse. Not at any point did he raise his voice or show any anger. Good on you Seb, because nobody should have to deal with that at work.

Conviently placed in the heart of deans gate the bar is in an ideal location. We have been before so was great to revisit and have a drink.

Great location, handy beside the tram Line, great food, lovely staff especially the wee lass from Pomeroy, Rossies man says hello

5 of us came for a drink on our lunch , lady came over to take our drinks order . 15 minutes still no drinks had arrived , barely any customers in the bar . Said to the lady who took our orders to cancel the drinks as we were still waiting only to be told we had only been waiting 10 minutes. Ended up walking out and walked to the deansgate pub and was served at the bar straight away. Poor service !

Great atmosphere friendly staff

Really friendly people, helpful and great value. The mushroom and hash brown barm was extremely filling, and for less than a fiver really can't complain! Great coffee too.

Great place, very friendly people, fab coffee (we were there for breakfast so missed out on the gins!). Good value and we will definitely return.

Not much on the menu 😤 , which was a bit disappointing , so only ended up getting a drink before looking for somewhere else to eat

The breakfast was amazing and the staff are so friendly

Came in for a bottomless brunch for two, that a experience! The waitress was attentive and knew our needs before we do! Foods were good, we’ve had salt beef hash and Full English, followed by delicious drinks with a stunning presentation! Special shout out to Sadie, very attentive to our drink orders and took care of them in a speedy and effectively manner.

Just a snack & a pint before axe throwing it was really really nice, we demolished the garlic bread as we were starving lovely pint of guiness

Just ordered the breakfast bap off the matchday menu gorgeous food well priced staff very friendly

Fantastic and delicious food, clean, nice music, wonderful staffs.

Had a breakfast with friends, excellent food, and great service with friendly staff. Would go again 👍

Great little find to have a few drinks whilst having a day out in Manchester..serve a decent pint of Guinness and staff are friendly. Decor also very cosy, you’ll like it here

Smart, friendly bar with nice wine and a great selection of lagers. Its also great meeting place next to Deansgate railway station.

Nice cosy place and very convenient, just a bit pricey on the drink front. Staff are great though

Great, busy, location…. And interesting selections of gin. Tried 6 different, some awesome, some not so awesome…

Nice atmosphere and great location

What a great place with fantastic staff like Iliana. Dog friendly heated rear terrace, gluten free food and very very affordable.

I love this gin bar - the staff are always welcoming and friendly. The decor is fab. It is always full in here. The baby Guinness is a must.
