The Library Champagne Bar

About

A secluded setting surrounded by beautiful books and original art in the heart of Manchester. Somewhere to relax and sip Champagne; enjoy charcuterie, artisan cheese and à la carte classics, or a place to savour one of Manchester’s best afternoon teas, freshly prepared in-house by The Library’s pâtissiers.  

The Library has also curated a collection of cocktails on the subjects of art, fashion and culture inspired by the handbound books of Assouline, the iconic French publishing house. Signature cocktails have been impeccably created by a team of mixologists to represent some of the most popular books within the famed Assouline ‘Ultimate’ collections range. ‘La Conception’ is dedicated to all things design, whilst ‘The Can of Pop’ has been inspired by one the leading pioneers of the Pop movement, Andy Warhol.

Guests can experience an exquisite selection of contemporary dishes such as steak tartare with a champagne-infused egg yolk and La Spécialité, a remarkable looking chocolate dome with black cardamom ice cream and molten chocolate sauce. The impressive À La Carte also sits alongside ‘The Impossible Edition Afternoon Tea’, a selection of homemade finger sandwiches on artisan bread, scones, preserves and patisseries, all available with sparkling wine or champagne.
