Fairfield Social Club, Manchester

Further to Mr CAMRA's comments, the WhatPub entry would suggest that Fairfield Social Club may be turning into more of an events venue. From their page: "However it is believed that GRUB may be looking for a new venue 2019-2020 as this venue will become an event space." This Facebook post seems to back it up: https://www.facebook.com/FSCMCR/posts/1443867879071839 It was always available for private functions but if it's going events only then I think that would be a shame. It has a rustic charm but not sure many people would want their wedding reception there!

What the review below doesn't mention is that this is also mainly an events space, so when I turned up on Friday evening I was asked by the doorman if I had a ticket. I didn't of course as it was a Techno night. He allowed me to have a look inside, but not buy a drink. I believe GRUB has now moved to Baring Street, so this may not be a pub at all now.
