Welcome to The Rain Bar

We miss you too but it is going to take us a little longer to open as we work on ensuring that we can do so responsibly. When we do open well ask you to observe new rules that we’ve put in place to keep you and our team members safe. We really look forward to seeing you soon.

The Rain Bar is a multi-award winning bar in the heart of Manchester. We serve a selection of JW Lees cask ales, premium spirits, and our cellar is full of quality wines; there’s something to suit all tastes, whilst our attentive team ensures you receive a warm welcome whatever the weather. We serve traditional pub grub and mouth-watering specials, all day every day. Our menus are filled with hearty pub food favourites and fresh new dishes, perfect for the season. Our walk-in approach means no booking is necessary, however if you want to ensure a table please book online. Be sure to arrive early when the sun is out as we have the number one sun terrace in Manchester overlooking the Bridgewater canal, voted the Best Outdoor Terrace by Manchester Confidential, for summer 2016. There are always plenty of events taking place in Manchester and at the bar. To keep up to date with what’s coming up over the next few weeks, take a look at our What’s On page  and sign up to our newsletter.

Our new Spring menu is now available, featuring fantastic new dishes including King Prawn, Chorizo & Mussel Linguine, Philly Steak Ciabatta, Pork Enchilada and Katsu Curry.
