Yates's Manchester is in the city centre, between China town and the infamous and lively Canal Street's gay village, just five minutes' walk from Piccadilly train station and directly in front of the National Express coach station. It is very much a chameleon-style venue which operates in all situations, offering unrivalled sports viewing and fantastic food. Being one of Manchester's première night spots in the heart of city, just ask any taxi driver where a great night out is to be found or where to meet up with friends - and he/she will always say: “Yates's - everybody knows where it is and it is by far the best bar in town.” (Taxi drivers never lie - FACT.)
