Edwards - Westminster House, Portland Street, Manchester, M1 3HU map
- A popular chain bar just round the corner from piccadilly gardens, edwards is frequented by office workers, shoppers and students. This bar was one of the first of the stylish new look bars opened in manchester with queues outside once a common sight. Things have relaxed a little since then and if you want a friendly place to drink where you can eat and dance as well then this is a great venue. The food served is typical pub/bar in style but it is great value, add that to the special drinks promotions and you might find you spend a little longer in edwards than first intended. Music wise, there is a real mix of styles which may be a little loud at times. Edwards also shows all the top sporting events on the numerous flat pannelled tv screens.
- food (british, bar)
- live sports (sky sports, bbc, itv, etc)

This is the first bar I go out to before hitting the other bars and clubs around Manchester. Great prices for drinks and excellent laid back atmosphere.
I’ve always tried to avoid this one, seems to be full of undesirables, but decided to give it ago. Edwards has great decor, very fancy and plush, but really that is the only time that the word Great can be used in connection with this bar.
I ordered some food, which was really quite bad, my steak, stilton and mushroom baguette with extra onion rings came as steak and mushroom baguette with garlic bread! After complaining they did change it for me, but it shouldn’t be that hard to get a simple sandwich order correct.
Towards the end of eating some of those undesirables decided it was time to come in and shout at the waiters for what I could see was nothing!
Anyway moral of the story, most times if you think a bar is going to be bad then often you are correct.
