About this space

The Town Hall Tavern is a cosy Manchester pub and, as the name would suggest, it's a stone's throw from the Town Hall. Hidden away down a narrow alley way off Albert Square, The Town Hall Tavern is a real favourite with Manchester locals.

Our function room upstairs features a private bar, plenty of seating and standing space along with an AV/Sound system so that you can play your own music.

Well stocked bar, and attentive staff. Food was excellent and the team getting it ready we're friendly and helpful. We had homemade veg/vegan chilli and Thai chicken,with added buffet bits! Great central location upstairs from the main bar! We could use the projector and huge screen which was great!

Once we got some of our guests to sit to eat it helped as we were pretty rammed in as all standing for the first hour!!

The venue was very flexible with decorations and let us come in a few hours before the event to decorate. The bar staff were responsive and helpful. They had great non-alcoholic beers available. The food, when it arrived, was good and there was plenty of it. Well priced drinks, great room size for 20-30 people with room to dance and sit. It was great to go downstairs after our event until 1am for a disco.

Our food was late due to some issues but the venue were very apologetic and we appreciated that. The speakers need upgrading - one of them stopped working and the other one had a really muffled sound. Not the end of the world but something to consider.
