Katie O’Brien's, Manchester

Peaky Blinders is a bar themed on the thieving gangsters from Brum, all of the staff are dressed like they’re on a stag do. This is a barn of a place with serving counter across the rear above which is a large stage for live music. Around the bar is open plan and seating runs around the walls over which a mezzanine with more seating sits. Upstairs was closed, which wasn’t surprising as there were less than ten people in during my recent Tuesday evening visit. The service was polite, premium keg was available alongside Brixton Lager. This stretch is tourist central so it gets busy in here from Thursday onwards.

Large themed 1920's style bar that is spread across 2 floors, although no where near as large as the one in the Baltic Quarter in Liverpool.It was slightly quite on my Monday afternoon visit and although there was quite a few keg taps i was slightly disappointed to find no cask.Sampled a half of dark fruit cider at a mere £2.90p
