About This Event

# Manchester Pub Crawl – Salt Dog Slims

Join the Manchester Pub Crawl on Friday 24 April 2026 for a brilliant night out exploring some of the city's best-loved bars and boozing spots. Starting at 19:30 from Salt Dog Slims in Spinningfields, this free event is perfect for locals and visitors alike who want to meet new people, discover hidden gems, and experience Manchester's legendary nightlife scene without breaking the bank. It's an 18+ only event, so leave your ID at home at your peril.

Salt Dog Slims sits right in the heart of Spinningfields, one of Manchester's trendiest quarters with a perfect mix of craft bars, independent restaurants, and proper character. The neighbourhood's become a real hotspot for nights out in recent years, and starting your crawl here means you're already surrounded by quality drinking establishments and good vibes from the off. The whole area's walkable and buzzing come Friday evening.

Head down to Salt Dog Slims a few minutes before 19:30 to meet the group and get the lowdown on where you're headed. Expect a sociable bunch of fellow crawlers, a guided route through some cracking venues, and plenty of banter along the way. Wear comfy shoes—you'll be doing a fair bit of walking—and pace yourself; it's a marathon, not a sprint.
