About us

The historic Smithfield building, in the heart of the Northern Quarter, was once home to the iconic Victorian Department store Affleck & Brown. This upmarket establishment was referred to as the “Harrods of the North” at the turn of the century. The doors of the luxury department store closed after a turbulent period for the area that saw Market Street and Deansgate become Manchester’s main retail hubs. Decades on, Affleck & Brown is now open as a contemporary bar displaying the style and flare previously embodied by the store.

We pride ourselves on serving some of the best drinks in Manchester. We've got signature cocktails including the ever-popular Rhubarb Spritz for Gin lovers, and El Diablo #2 for Tequila aficionados. Craft beers? Check. A large selection on tap? Yes. What about an abundance of wines - red, white and rose? Of course - we've even got a nice choice of sparkling. Affleck & Brown will turn a night out into a night to remember.

I was appalled to be refused service in this bar, I have been in before with no problem Today I went in with my husband who is 63 and not in the best of health, we went out for his up coming 64th birthday, we ordered two cocktails and were very impressed, my husband went back to the bar to order two more only to be told because my husband had trouble with the card scanner we would not be served again The only trouble he had was he had the damn thing upside down A very enjoyable day spoilt by one supercilious barman We were very upset, and for nothing, we had had a few drinks but we certainly weren't too drunk I shan't be back
