A new Caribbean-inspired speakeasy cocktail bar has opened on Slater Street

Manolo, Liverpool’s new high-end speakeasy bar with expertly created cocktails, has opened in the heart of the Ropewalks area.

Serving Caribbean-inspired cocktails, reimagined classics, wines, champagne and high end spirits, Manolo is largely table service with a small standing area for guests.

With jazz, salsa and Hispanic music beating away in the background early on in the evening, there will be more upbeat music as the nights progress, creating a relaxed and entertaining environment.

Guests can expect carefully crafted classic cocktails including Negroni, Manhattan, Old Fashioned, Mai Tai, Mojito, Daquiri and Gin Martinis, which will all be served in pristine glassware.

Manolo has also created its own version of the much-loved Espresso Martini, Cosmo, French Martini, Long Island as well as a delicious Bloody Mary and Gin & Tonic.

Service will be exceptional, with inspiration taken from the likes of 5 star hotel bars, to New York speakeasies and world-class cocktail bars around the globe. Attentive bartenders with vast experience in luxurious cocktails will welcome and look after guests, ensuring they have an unrivalled, memorable experience.

Bookings are available and encouraged. Walk-ins are also accepted, however, will be subject to availability.

A selection of bar snacks will be available including crisps, olives, popcorn and pretzels, making the perfect addition to the cocktails that have been created by the talented team behind Manolo.

Nick Thomas, Director of Manolo, explained:

“Manolo is bringing an entirely different offering to Liverpool. Inspired by the Caribbean, the venue offers a variety of exceptional cocktails that hark from the region, as well as reimagined classics with Manolo’s own take on the originals.

“it’s a venue with an intimate atmosphere, where the service focuses on our guests and ensuring everyone has a great time in a relaxed setting. We’re really looking forward to welcoming everyone from Thursday 1st September.”
