Derren Brown dropped into one of the city’s most sought after bars on Saturday night, following his show at the Lowry. The A-list illusionist hit Speak In Code, recently named among the best bars in the country.
Replying to a fan on Twitter, Brown said that the bar served him a ‘sensational’ martini, and paid tribute to the ‘lovely team’ who attended to him. “Last night I went for a sensational martini at Speak In Code, a wonderful speakeasy cocktaily spot in Manchester,” he tweeted.
“Sensational martinis are worth noting; they are few and far between. Thank you to the lovely team there.” The hidden bar, denoted only by a discrete sign and which is run by Nathan Larkin, opened on Jackson’s Row in 2018.
