The city’s only specialist sherry bar, Flōk is a sophisticated yet unassuming space with a wide selection of drinks that also includes specialty craft beers and ales. It’s at the heart of the city’s thriving Northern Quarter and its appeal hits the sweet spot between old and new. Think all exposed brickwork and distressed leather furnishings, plus Mediterranean-style seating outside, which makes it easily the best place in Manchester for al fresco drinks during summer.
