Join us for our regular Friday meet — every 2 weeks at an exciting venue in Manchester! This time, we're meeting at The Salutation 🫡, a historic Manchester pub with a warm, friendly atmosphere, just off Oxford Road, tucked in amongst the Manchester Met Uni area. Whether you're a seasoned regular or new in town, come unwind and enjoy a pint or two 🍺. Discover Manchester, make weekend plans, and build new friendships in a relaxed setting! We usually have several regulars joining, along with new faces (typically 10–20 people). If it's your first time, don't worry; our community is known for its warm welcomes! Sign up now, and we'll see you there. About the venue: Dating back to at least 1844, The Salutation is a hidden gem, with a rich history and a relaxed, friendly vibe. Where Charlotte Brontë began writing Jane Eyre and Manchester cultural icon Frank Sidebottom performed his last ever gig, today The Salutation's early 20th century facade stands out beneath the much more modern, lanky buildings of the Metropolitan University. Join us for a laid-back evening of drinks, conversation, and good company in one of Manchester’s most characterful pubs!
