Manchester Press Club - 2-10 St. Johns House, Queen Street, Manchester, M2 5JB map
- Manchester Press Club is a private members club open to people that work in the media and a few other public sector organisations i.e. Police, Fire. Now unless you know what you are looking for you won’t notice the Press Club, a recessed doorway with two small signs one ‘Manchester Press Club Founded 1870′ and the other ‘Members Only, All Other Callers Must Use Lloyd Street Entrance’. The Club was originally opened for those people working in the media that would finish very late and want somewhere to drink after work, people like newspaper printers working till the early hours. Now the club attracts those people as well as a number of tv celebrities.

Hello just wondering whether we could get tickets for 6 classy girlies to come press club,for my best friends 20 th birthday .we are all currently studying at manchester metropolitian university. Finally we would really appreciate this very much xxx
The Press Club is a strange one. You sort of feel like you’re at a wedding reception when you’re in there as the decor is slightly hotel’ish and the central dancefloor is surrounded by tables. Its a great place to go if you want to sit and chat to your mates whilst slowly getting paraletic until the early hours (it closes at 6am on a Fri/Sat). It’s a bit random because everyone will be dancing away til about 1/2am then the Karaoke kicks in, which is the perfect time as everyone is leathered enough to either belt out a tune or dance around to others doing so. The celeb thing is kinds true, Ive seen a whole host of Corrie/Shameless cast members, a Razorlight band member, Will Young.. and the funniest thing I saw was Ricky Hatton singing Elvis on the karaoke. Nearly got chucked out for taking a phone pic of my mate though, they have a very strict ‘No Photo’s, No Autographs’ Policy so be careful. Anyway overall it’s good place.. a very different night out to the usual club experience. I give it a thumbs up.

Why pay to get in when you can go to your local working mans pub for the same experience- for free!
And “please, don’t take pictures of our celebrities”. Which ones are they? the ones that weren’t there?
Please, don’t bother.
