Flok, Manchester

This began as a bank, then latterly a gift shop. This is a bar with a light Catalan theme - initially it sold Pinxtos and had a small kitchen/preparation area. The kitchen has now gone and the food offering is charcuterie and small plates, also coffees and teas. It has a bare-boarded space with high-set booths looking out to Stevenson Square. The smart panelled bar is along a wall opposite you as you enter with 1 handpump at the front dispensing cask ale (not available 100% of the time) and a keg wall behind (9 lines). It is decorated in an eclectic style. Toilets are downstairs where is also a few more seats. There are tables outside on Stevenson Square but glasses are only allowed outside till 9pm, after that plastic glasses have to be used.
