Walkabout (Manchester) Reviews

Walkabout (Manchester) Pub / Bar National

Newest Review: ... The entry fee was £5, which is pretty standard, so I didn't have a gripe with that, but the clientele was awful. Virtually as soon as we walked in we saw the bouncers wading in to split up a fight and this continued throughout the night. The crowd in there wasn't particularly young, I would guess that the average customer was around the age of 30, but they were rough thirty year olds. The theme for my sister's birthday night was 'Where's Wally?", so we all went along dressed as Wally from the cartoon.
