About The Spirit of Manchester Distillery

Set beneath the railway arches in the heart of Manchester city centre, our bar offers a striking, atmospheric backdrop ideal for photography, filming, and content creation. The space combines industrial charm with refined finishes – think exposed brick, polished concrete, dramatic lighting, and a full working distillery visible behind glass panels. Whether you're shooting high-end editorial, branded content, social media campaigns, or product photography, the venue offers incredible versatility. Natural light filters through by day, while the ambient glow of copper stills, candlelit tables, and backlit spirits create a moody, cinematic setting by night. Features include: Characterful bar area with velvet booths and rich textures Lounge space with adaptable layouts for styling or interviews Distillery views with custom copper stills and glass-fronted production area Fully stocked back bar, cocktail equipment, and spirit displays On-site team available to assist with logistics and setup
