The UK bar chain known for its colourful cocktails and its menus filled with different flavoured vodkas has announced it’s entering a ‘a new era of cost-effective fun and flavour’.
Revolution, which has two sites in Manchester, has said that it wants to make ‘nights out affordable again’.
Nights out are becoming a treat these days with the cost of everything seemingly increasing all the time.
Following a rocky period, in which eight sites were closed at the start of this year, Manchester-founded bar group Revolution are hoping this new batch of offers will make them everybody’s night out hotspot.
With the chain having two sites located in Manchester city centre, there’s double the chance to benefit from these deals.

This will include making cocktails and sampling their creations of much-loved classic cocktails taken from the menu.

Instead of a paper umbrella or a little sweet treat, this drink has a card attached to the glass which denotes two options, you guessed it, truth or dare.
Sticking with the card game theme, why not test your fortunes with the ‘Chase The Ace’, another red-toned drink which has a playing card as its centrepiece.
The final addition is not one for the weak, clubbers can now order ‘Chilli Shot Roulette’, one person in your party is about to feel the heat, literally.

A huge Oasis-themed bar and music venue has opened in Manchester
Daisy Jackson
A new bar and gig venue that’s a shrine to all things Oasis is opening in Manchester city centre this week.
From memorabilia from the band’s history to artwork inspired by their work, Definitely Maybe is packed out with nods to the Gallagher brothers.
The bar has taken over the old Black Dog Ballroom site in the Northern Quarter, in the basement unit of Afflecks.
This huge Oasis bar splits into a few sections, from a live music stage to a mini gallery displaying memorabilia and posters.
There’s even a pair of Liam Gallagher’s Tommy Hilfiger pants suspended in one display unit.
Other items on display include one of Noel’s guitars (and a few more signed replicas), a pair of Liam’s maracas, early photography and sketches, and live gig photography.

There are even Oasis lyrics scrawled along the wall of the bar, and globe-shaped light fixtures.
You can play pool, make use of the free photobooth, and sip on themed cocktails while feeling like a Rock n Roll Star.
Oasis-inspired cocktails include the Pina Columbia, the Strawberry Lemonade, and the She’s Electric.
Entry to the bar costs £5, but you’ll get a drinks token in return – or you can buy a membership for the rest of the year for just £6.
Definitely Maybe is already a well-loved name in Bolton and now it’s here in the city centre ready to help you live our your Rock n Roll Star dreams.
A tiny new train station pub has opened at Manchester Oxford Road

A tiny craft beer pub has opened at Manchester Oxford Road, making all those inevitable train cancellations a little sweeter.
The new boozer comes from the same team behind some of the UK’s best train station pubs, who already have bars at Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Victoria.
The Oxford Road Tap has plenty of charming nods to its proximity to the great British rail network.
There’s the big red National Rail sign that they’ve restored and turned into a beer tap, an arch over the bar that mimics the shape of the station, and even a departures board so you can work out how many more pints you can squeeze in.
You’ll find plenty of British craft beers behind the bar as well as a great selection of European lagers, plus spirits and wines.
The bar from Bloomsbury Leisure Holdings Limited has taken over the former cycle hub at Manchester Oxford Road.
The small building is directly opposite the entrance to the busy train station on the southern side of the city centre.

This will be the third site for the pub group in Manchester.
They already operate the Piccadilly Tap, that two-storey beer bar on Piccadilly Approach with a heated rooftop space and outdoor patio.
The team are also responsible for the more recently-opened Victoria Tap, which took over the former bin store at Manchester Victoria.
That particular pub has a heated beer garden constructed just inches away from where the trams tootle past and has a departures board where time is measured by pints (got 10 mins til your train leaves? That’s one pint, sir!)
