Major Manchester bar operator goes into liquidation

Ah, Moston Lane! I still drive down Moston Lane off Rochdale Road, right turn into Conran Street, etc, on matchdays. Will do today. I shall pass on yer compliments, MES. Once upon a time yer could get the finest muffins in the entire fuckin' world from Wards on Moston Lane. Now it's a fuckin' Asda, chargin' 'Apper'ayites thruppence less for their Abu Dhabi diesel than Rochdalians are screwed for!
How much for a barm?
 
NQ, and the centre in general quickly became saturated with trendy new bars and concepts. The amount was never sustainable over any length of time. They may do well on a Friday and Saturday night (especially the coming ones up to Christmas) but most the rest of the week they will struggle, and as much as they take on the weekend, they will struggle to cover all overheads and make a profit. Simply isn't enough custom to go round them all.

They will come and go, but the established boozers like The Salisbury, Lass, City, Vine etc will continue mostly.
Classic case of style over substance
 
I find the northern quarter a bit crap. It’s so expensive compared to other pubs/bars in town and the bouncers are always twats. They don’t let you in because your a bit drunk or with other males.... no wonder they don’t make money when they don’t let anyone in them

There were 4 of us turned away from Walrus for being all lads, then 3 lads behind us we didn’t know also got turned away.

They took it worse than us and kicked off a bit.

Imagine any other group being turned away because of who they are.
 
I’m not surprised they are going under if they are anything like Tusk in Heaton Moor....what a dirty shit hole, it won’t be a big loss for the area
