    On a cold, wet winter's evening where do you go for cheap food and drink before going to the Cornerhouse? The Font while all the students have gone home to mum and dads for Christmas. I used to come here a lot as a student and finding my friends dragging me back here as an adult. This place now looks quirky and it always seems busy despite being on two floors. Not do much a student place as there are people of all ages. Be aware of any drunks who get carried away with the £2 cocktails on offer. The food is plentiful too for the price. We got a mixture of burgers, mac and cheese, vegetarian - something for everyone. Cheap and cheerful. What's not to like about this place.

    The last thing anyone wants to do post-holiday is jump straight into Tesco and start planning your meals for the week ahead; you want to keep that holiday feeling going for as long as possible. After weighing up the numerous brunch / lunch options Manchester has to offer, we decided on The Font - old faithful. It wasn't particularly busy when we arrived but people started to pile in around 1pm (Bank Holiday hangovers, perhaps...) so we had our pick of the tables upstairs. After a few days of drinking generic European lager, I went for a Magic Rock Highwire Grapefruit - the drink which started my new found love for beer - and it really hit the spot. Food wise, the other half couldn't see much further than the big breakfast, a staple from our student days. I enjoyed a corner of the hash brown, my favourite item on any breakfast plate! The toast, oddly, took a while to reach the table but other than that the service was friendly and attentive throughout. My jerk steak wrap was really tasty, with a real kick of spice cooled by a Tzatziki style sauce, accompanied by a dry coleslaw - perfect when drizzled with some Sriracha. We shared some onion rings because hey, we're on holiday... One thing I would come back to The Font for time and time again are the curly fries. I don't think I've ever not spent that extra bit of money on upgrading them. Old faithful remains just that.

    Wow - what a blast from the past. I was a regular in Font in my University days and now I remember why! £2 for a cocktail... Okie dokie. For a Tuesday night after a Yelp event at Pancho's I found myself ordering a few cocktails and beers in here. It is just as I remembered, split out over 2 levels it has plenty of seating, a varied cocktail menu (From £2 - £6!! Cheap as chips!) and it still has that 'studenty' vibe which was nice for a while, although I did start to feel a little old towards the end of the night when the place was filled with under 20's. It's a friendly and fun bar, and from what I'm told does really nice food too. I probably won't pop into Font much, those days for me have been and gone - I do fancy trying the food but it'll be over the holidays when the students have all gone home and it's quiet ;)

    I can understand why Font appears to have a really mixed bag of reviews - as it's probably not most people's cup of tea if they don't fancy a predominantly studenty crowd. My friends and I really like it here though, as it offers cheap, decent drinks, good food and great music, so it's perfect as a pre-gig venue if you're off to the nearby Ritz. The regular rotation of the beers means there's usually an eclectic mix of local breweries. Its reputation as a bit of a beer mecca is so good in fact that it features in CAMRA's Good Beer Guide. There are lots of cocktails available at cheap-as-chips prices alongside wines and spirits aplenty. I've only eaten here once but the portions are hearty yet good value for money - the menu comprises the likes of wraps, sandwiches and burgers (be sure to get a side order of curly fries for 50p extra). It can get quite busy of an evening over its two floors, but the atmosphere is buoyant and fun. As a venue it's an oldie but a goodie for me.

    Been here only a couple times. Its has a very student-y feel. This is no doubt because of the cheap cocktails. I had heard the cocktails were cheap, but not £2 cheap!! It has a selection of about 10 cocktails for £2. They have many others just a little bit more than that. In fact the most expensive cocktail I think is £5 or £6. And although the cocktails are not the best in the world, they are not too bad for such as cheap price - although maybe taste a little watered down. The place is pretty big so you have a decent chance of grabbing a table to sit down. When I came here on a Monday, the bar was quite busy when we arrived but quietened down quickly. Most of the staff had to refer to "cheat sheets" to make the cocktails but that was OK - they were doing their best to sort the drinks out as quick as they could.

    Cocktails for £2...sound good? Hardly any alcohol in the cocktails. So much sugary syrup that its all you can taste and your tounge hurts. So busy you can't sit down or move. So loud you can't hear, but nowhere to dance. Still sound good? No, it doesn't.

    I've been to this Font for cocktails a few times. I came with a friend on a Friday night recently. The cocktails were very weak with barely any alcohol in it, but tasted really good. I loved the coconut liqueur in blue Hawaiian. The chicken burger was a let down as the chicken piece was very small. The curled chips were a lot nicer than normal chips & nicer than the burger to be fair, although the curled chips added extra 50p which the barman didn't tell me until I agreed to swap normal chips to curled one & was about to pay. I had the strawberries &cream cocktail for 2 quid which served as a dessert. This place is usually full of university students at term time. It was quite busy in July too with young crowds. Certainly a good trendy bar to start a weekend night with. But don't count on getting drunk here as I wasn't even tipsy after 2 cocktails.

    I used to quite like the apple mojitos from here. £2 is cheap for a cocktail. However, it isn't really that cheap as you essentially get an Ikea glass full of ice. Even the biggest lightweight would need to buy at least 3 or 4 cocktails before they could feel the effect of the alcohol. Admittedly the cocktails are quite tasty, but I tend to go for the 2-4-1 beer offers they have on - at the moment bottles of Peroni are BOGOF every night until 10pm. At the weekends this is one of the only places around the Oxford Road corridor which actually has a better atmosphere than throughout the week, although it can get pretty packed. On several occasions I've had to wait for 15 minutes-ish at the bar behind people ordering 10 different cocktails only to find on my return that my little section of the wooden bench has been commandeered by the group next to mine. If you're happy to stand for a pre-night out drink then Font is a great place to get you in the mood for drinking and dancing. Also I don't understand why they got rid of the groovy frontage and put a load of bird silhouettes on the window. Maybe they had problems with pigeons flying into the glass?!

    How? Why? What? So many questions about the price of this place. Cheap and cheerful is probably the best way to describe it. The cocktails indeed start at £2, however if you're expecting more than a measure of spirit you may want to look away now. I had a nice English Collins, the White Russian was also good, but it's all very straightforward. There's also a good beer selection on draft and in bottle/can (my friend was surprised to see a Swedish beer only usualy found in the Alcohol Monopoly stores, but there's also a lot of the UK and international breweries, new and old). Hackney's Howling Hops had a big tap presence as part of a takeover, but with about a dozen kegs and 4/5 casks there's a big selection at all price ranges. Albeit not quite as cheap as the aforementioned cocktails. The feel of the place is very much student union-y upstairs (and the age range of other patrons made it feel very very much like that), with downstairs having a slightly different vibe due to it's retro furniture/decorations. I imagine it's a good night-out venue, rather than as a pub (see: drinks prices, music level, DJ in the corner). They'd stopped serving food, but the brownie I had was nice, if a bit lacking in gooeyness. You can find much better cocktails elsewhere (including Gorilla, just around the corner).

    Font ohh dear! I have had so many night outs, goof ups and crazy evenings here. Definitely is one of the best student bars in Manchester, you cannot go wrong with a 2 pound cocktail (I yes you heard it right). Remember those days when you were a student and buying a cocktail in a bar was a luxury? That is exactly where Font comes into play where you can get fancy cocktails for 2, 3 and 4 pounds (I doubt the amount of alcohol content sometimes but there definitely is some because I definitely have had a nice kick after). My favorites being the 2 pound Strawberry Cream Cocktail which is absolutely delicious and White Russian for 3 pounds! You can definitely have a good night out here for less than 20 quid. They have a great selection of beers as well and as I mentioned before price is something you don't need to worry about here! Font is definitely the best stop over before hitting a club or if you are not in a mood to dance like a pop star then you can definitely spend the whole night here! The music is good (mostly pop and rock) and they have two floors so enough space to go with a big group (besides weekends when it is absolutely rammed). The bouncers can be strict with ID checks so make sure you carry one even if you are 25! Verdict: Cheap cocktails, good music and a buzzing crowd!

    Popular with the uni crowds of the whole Oxford Road semi- 'burb, I found out about Font bar from a friend who actually went to Manchester Met for a year. Girls, come here for a good selection of £2 cocktails, 25 in fact and I promise I'm not lying. They just don't come in posh glasses. For some this is clearly a destination bar but I see it more of a pitstop on the way to a club. The long benches on some of the tables are fun but you wouldn't want to sit there for long. Font Bar also just isn't big enough to accommodate all the spruced up youngsters who want to drink here. So many, wisely, just move along after a few drinks. That said, they do put on a good mix of music: if you visited a few times in the same week you'd hear dub, electro, the obligatory indie and even a bit of 60s soul and funk thrown in there. I've never been in to Font during the day for food but its open from lunch time and it has free Wi-Fi so I may be correcting that ve-ery soon. Finally, I absolutely love the decor here finding that it walked the line between kooky and pretentious like a pro. There's nothing like a good looking bar on a night out in town.

    My problem with the Font is the fact is neither here nor there. Years ago when I had the energy to wander pub to pub along the way to a club this bar would have been a welcome stop, but now I chose more wisely the places I take my custom. For a student bar this is not the cheapest bar I have ever come across nor the friendliest place I have visited. This place attracts the 'obvious' , the people who find it hard to think of anything but there next drink during their student years...quite rightly (best part of being a student). The name just does not do it for me, and the food is pretty poor. As a quick stop off though....I can fogive you!

So...I would not have picked this place as my first choice as a spot to work off a hangover. It had too many clean lines. I was wanting something old, dark, traditional, dark, quiet-ish and dark.

Between the Bloody Mary the hearty eggs, sausage, bacon, hash browns and so on...I left in far better shape than I arrived. That was the extend of my experience- which seems a shame as there is a lot to do here (billiards, terrace- karaoke - they told us).

We had some rather fantastic Manhattens, Sazeracs, and a New York sour -the standout drink for me. A traditional whisky sour topped with red wine, sounds crazy but it's fantastic. Next time I'm looking for somewhere to drink cocktails and chat to some very knowledgeable mixologists I'll be popping along here.

The prices are exceptional for Manchester and I have rarely seen it over crowded so there is no 30 minute wait at the bar for a drink. They have a number of specialist and national beers on tap as well as in bottles and bottles of alcopops and shots of spirits. The DJ area is pure genius ... The bridge of the original starship enterprise with Gerard the Dalek protecting it from the side. In the left corner there is a tardis that lights up and the ceiling is full of models from sci if shows like battle star galactica and Star Trek. Near the toilets there is a number of arcade machines and there are arcade tables near the tardis where you can play classic games such as pacman and donkey kong for a small fee. To top it all off there is also a pinball machine present. The bar snacks range from sweets to nuts and crisps and they also provide a simple, classic, student type menu. Through out the week there are various theme night such as games nights but there are a number of board games available at any time and these games can easily be played. The decor is brilliant for fans of science fiction shows and there are a number of posters and signed pictures around the place and there is a glass cabinet of merchandise ranging from classic Star Wars and superman collectables. Next to this here is a table which is a scene from an alien landing and a comfortable booth. Located near china town I always have to visit this bar when I stay over in Manchester. Thereupon are also tv screens located all around that will play classic cartoons, movies and tv shows.

What was NOT to love? Well, fast-forward 10 years and you suddenly realise that walking into a sticky-floored bar and being greeted by the smell of piss doesn't quite have the same allure anymore. Don't get me wrong, I still think the Fab chain is, well, fab, I just think that the next time I go to the one in Manchester, it'll have to be at the end of the night when I'm pie-eyed and youngsters, smells, dirty toilets and crap dancing don't bother me. Going back to the toilets though - have you read the graffiti on the doors/walls in there? Some of it is hilarious, poetic even! You could be in there for hours just reading. Anyway, I think Fab Manchester deserves a second chance as we went in there quite early on in the evening and I guess it doesn't really come to life until a bit later. I will say that I was a tad disappointed in the state of it though and reckon they could do with putting some money into giving it a revamp, or even just a good scrub. Crikey, I think I'm turning into a snob.

    I've been to some dreadful places in my time, but Corridor is just about the worst of the lot…read more Before I even begin, I'll point you in the direction of what this bar thinks of itself without any trace of irony: "Nobody can tell you you are cool, you just know it. Five years ago, passing somebody in the street wearing white earbuds would elicit a knowing nod although strangers to each other, iPod owners considered themselves a clique, a cabal of cool... knowledge of Corridor's existence and location is spreading, usually by word of mouth and pretty soon, like the iPod it will ingratiate itself to the masses but thanks to the simplicity of the door policy (if you can find it, you can come in) and the focus on great drinks and service. Corridor will be cool for many years to come." Honestly. Anyone reading that with at least a trace of a rudimentary brain-cell should be wanting to hunt the place down and level it with as many explosives and bulldozers as possible. Stepping inside this hell-hole is when the suffering really begins. Red-lights adorn the area, complete with Curiosity Killed The Cat's 'Greatest Hits' being churned out of the in-house PA at ear-bleeding volume, leaving patrons to slink cod-disaffectedly on the red sofas, trying to read each other's lips on the off-chance anyone might say something of even the slightest significance. If they enjoy being here, then it is a safe bet that they're saying nothing interesting at all, leaving everyone else to slump in their chairs wishing someone would come and give them a lethal injection to end the unrelenting misery of this irritating hipster-gland. I managed to find myself faced with an achingly wacky bar-staff, all dressed in lab-coats. One of them fancied himself as something of a comedian. In reality, he was the flesh and bones equivalent of a novelty tie. Alas, no law has been passed where you can force people like him face-first through paper-shredders. To the right of the bar was a 'hilarious' chalk-board with formulas and equations on for patrons to work out. You'd be wrong in thinking that people ignore it as three dunderheads gamely stood by trying to work out whatever pointless equation it was, presumably in the name of a free drink. On top of this, the prices on the bar were extortionate and there was nothing on tap. Anyone who actually pays to buy a bottle of Bud should be thrashed to within an inch of their lives. I got a dark rum concoction and, to be quite frank, it was dismal. Almost apologetically, a fat man in a lab coat was sent around the venue to serve up experimental booze-treats. That means a big spoon with vodka jelly on and some cream that tasted like vermouth. As interesting as it sounded, the screwed up faces belied the polite approval it brought as the fat man revelled in the only attention he'd ever got in his life from absolutely anyone. One good thing about Corridor is that the man who served me my drink was so thick that he gave me a tenner instead of a fiver in my change. I saw that as compensation for having to endure a hideous, grotesque place that had the soulless bon homie of a wine-bar in a crap '80s American sitcom. Thanks to all of the above, this place will no doubt be a runaway success to yapping fools who buy into a supposed exclusivity and irony. Kill it.

Angela makes a good point about the security, as this part of Manchester seems to cast the net wide when it goes in search of bouncers, and ends up bring up all the scum from the bottom.

Having said that, I think its usually free anyway, unless they have something special on. It is relatively cheap, especially for Deansgate, so that's another thing its got over its local rivals. However, there were some downsides to my visit. There was a large 18th birthday party going on, which was loud and dominant. A number of under 18 year olds were present and they had a wristband system in operation to mark out the ones eligible to purchase alcohol. Irritating. Music also was pretty poor, apart from a few Michael Jackson choonz, for whom I have a soft spot. They did take a number of our requests though so I'll have to say fair play there. The décor is done out in that formulaic trendy, shoes-only, style bar, which is pretty boring and unwelcoming.

The rooms themselves have that under the arches feel, which gives the place an intimate feel and reminds me a little of The Cross in London. For this reason it appeals to an older crowd who want something a little more special. The staff and the management are extremely curtious and look like they're having fun. There are no intimidating security lurking at every corner which you often find in the pretentious clubs in this area (or at least I wasn't aware of them) and the vibe is very relaxed. The bar stocks the regular drinks and aren't over-priced. Love it.

    Random stop we made since the previous restaurant we headed to had moved. When initially walking…read morein, it seemed like a real cool spot and it never hurts when you see 2 for 1 drinks. Once we walked in the host that came to the door at first was trying to tell us if we didn't have a reservation then they didn't have room....I was confused because even though today was one of days of Pride, their restaurant wasn't full at all. (Wish I took a picture). I then asked why we can't sit at the bar...the host wasn't sure so he went and asked the manager and the manager stated why can't they. Alright so my point lol. We sat at the high bar tables and they explained that you can scan the QR code or just order at the bar. The bar option was easier for us since it was a group. Made our order at the bar and that was simple. Now the 2 for 1 drinks start coming out and the first one was VERY lack luster. It was the passion fruit mojito which tasted like mint fruit juice. I did not taste a lick of alcohol. (Just an FYI the 2 for 1 drinks apply to all cocktails). We then receive another drink which I can't remember the name and it was decent but I was good with water after that one since it once again tasted like fruit juice. Once the food starts coming out, I'm excited! The guac and chips, they actually made it into nachos...apparently guac and chips with salsa is something people don't normally order....so after some explaining then they understood what was needed. When the Moqueca came out it smelt so delicious!! Oddly enough the appetizer came out with the entree as well. The one I tried was the mango and cheese empanada. It was pretty good...nothing to rave about. Alright back to the Moqueca, it was delicious. For warn you that you do have to de shell the shrimp and clams but besides that it was great! It's not 100 percent like the original but they did a great job. All in all the restaurant was decent. I do think they need to get their staff on the same page, and work on the ratios when making a drink but otherwise it was a decent place to eat.

    Come here for drinks and maybe appetizers, but meals seem to fall short on quality…read more Many 2 for 1 drink options and others available to be sure to check the menu for the best deals. We came here for dinner last evening and enjoyed a few appetizers including the garlic bread, chicken nachos, albondigas, chicken quesadilla, crispy cauliflower bites o which the albondigas and cauliflower were the hits worth ordering again on a future visit. For entrees we ordered the Gaucho steak and Argentinian burger, would not get either again. Drinks were all good and had a plethora available. There was trivia going on when we arrived and late night has nice loud music playin throughout the restaurant and bar area.
