Aperol Spritz and summer go together like peanut butter and jam - they’re pretty much made for each other. Pair that with the bustling atmosphere of Manchester’s Spinningfields and, well, you’ve got a recipe for a good time and a cheeky tipple.
This week, a pop-up bar has sprung up at The Oast House, and will be in the city centre for the next two weeks. The Piazza Aperol has taken over the Spinningfields beer garden, decking it out in orange trees, Fiat 500 seats and art deco street lights. Not to mention a bar fully stocked with the popular Italian aperitivo.
I headed down to the launch on Wednesday ahead of the official opening on July 14, where the outdoor space has been transformed into a stunning Italian terrace perfect for an al fresco cocktail or two.
