First experience at Sterling Bar for birthday cocktails with the family. ( We go to Schofields bar regularly. ) We all absolutely loved it. Brilliant vibe and loved the music. My daughter said it was the best cocktail she’s ever had. Will now be our bar of choice when in centre of Manchester. We will definitely be back.

We didn’t have food but could not skip that hence only 1 star. Cocktails and service were excellent. We found the bar very noisy and prefer something a little more chilled for a pre dinner drink.
