Boom Battle Bar Manchester

Boom Battle Bar Manchester is an all-in-one bright neon activity centre in the Printworks. It’s an indoor playground primarily for adults (over 18s only after 7pm) with shuffleboard, axe throwing, augmented reality darts, pool tables, karaoke and beer or Prosecco pong.

There’s a lively atmosphere with cocktails, beer and big groups. It’s a good choice for work nights out, dates with a difference and even stag and hen dos.

Food is a cursory bit of chicken wings and the like but the attraction is drinking and doing stuff. You can book in for a bottomless brunch or a cocktail masterclass as well as the more competitive games.

Boom Battle Bar Manchester, as the name suggests, is a loud, busy place teeming with testosterone and the air of vying for victory. There’s plenty of party atmosphere but it’s not for a pint and a quiet game of arrows.
