00:00Hello and welcome to Manchester World, my name is Theo Cusenbett and today we have another

00:05lovely round up video for you.

00:07Now the sun has been out for a couple of weeks now and the best way to take advantage in

00:11a city like Manchester is to go for a cheeky post work drink.

00:15So the purpose of this video is just to run you through some of our favourite spots near

00:18the city centre to go out, sit in the sun and relax a little bit.

00:22We have two bars for you and two streets I suppose you could say or communal areas.

00:28So we're going to run through all of those but we're going to start with Nell's.

00:31Now Nell's is based on campus in the Gay Village and is right alongside the canal.

00:37Nell's is known for its New York City style pizza which it does to a brilliant, brilliant

00:41standard and the beer and drink options aren't bad either.

00:45It's definitely a perfect place to sit out and relax with friends, it's well worth a visit

00:48if you've not made it before.

00:50Now the walk between spot one and spot two is actually ridiculously brief.

00:54As I mentioned Nell's on campus is in the Gay Village and our second spot is actually just

00:59Canal Street.

01:01I've got to say it is just one of the best places in the city to go for a relaxing pint

01:05outside.

01:06It's cobbled, it's pedestrianised, you don't have to worry about cars, you don't have to

01:09worry too much about traffic.

01:11There's always a friendly atmosphere because most of the people who spend their time around

01:15here are just that.

01:16And you have an awesome range of bars and pubs to pick between.

01:20It's the sort of place where you go out at the beginning of the night, you make some

01:23friends and you end up staying out till midnight.

01:24So fair warning.

01:25But I definitely need to recommend this as a perfect spot for a pint when it's sunny.

01:31So the penultimate space on our rundown of perfect places to drink outside is a place

01:35that shouldn't be a massive surprise to anyone familiar with Manchester.

01:39This is Stephenson Square in the Northern Quarter.

01:41We have a massive range of brilliant, brilliant places including some recent openings such

01:45as the Salmon of Knowledge and Nancy Spain's where you can get some brilliant Guinness or

01:48Murphy's as it is a Nancy Spain's.

01:50It's a brilliant place to get a drink and it's a brilliant place to catch the sun as

01:54well.

01:55Now our very last place is Back to a Bar and it's one of Manchester's better known live

02:00music ones.

02:01So let's go have a look.

02:03Now for the final spot on our little tour of beer gardens we're here at the Oast House.

02:07Now I'm sure you will have heard of this one.

02:09It's just off Bridge Street and only about a 5 minute walk down from Deansgate and it's

02:13one of the best live music pubs here in Manchester.

02:17They have a stage here and each night they'll have some brilliant performer out and about.

02:22Beer Garden is pretty substantial.

02:24I've seen it filled with hundreds of people before and the name Oast House actually comes

02:28from a part of the brewing process for beer that was drying the hops.

02:32So this building used to be that and now it deals with the finished product.

02:37It's got a great pint of Guinness and a great atmosphere so it's definitely worth coming

02:41down and giving it a try.

02:43Now there are many more places that we've missed out in this list.

02:46So if there's anything you want to make sure we try and include next time drop us a message

02:49and we'll make sure we get ourselves down there.

02:51But that's all for now.

02:52Thank you for watching and follow Manchester World for more.
