A Manchester bar that launched a crowdfunder in a bid to keep stay open during the winter period is now offering drinks for as little as £2.50. Alvarium in the Northern Quarter announced the crowdfunding campaign last month saying the money would "'go long way into making a dent in the crippling debt".
Now, the bar on Dorsey Street has launched a cheap drinks deal on Friday nights, with some of its most popular bevs priced at less than a fiver. The bar will be serving up bottles of Mahou beer, a 175ml glass of Temperanillo, Temp Rose or Viura, and a range of festive-cocktails ranging from Cinnamon and Orange Spritz, Santa's Little Helper and Winter Berries.
The bar, which stays open until 1am on Fridays, launched a extended happy hour during summer, which saw it offer two bottles of San Miguel for £5 and two cocktails for £10. Their current menu includes wine, beer, festive-themed cocktails spritzes.
