One of Manchester city centre’s most infamous bars, Bar Wave, has closed ‘until further notice’.

The doors to the Portland Street bar were quietly locked up last weekend.

A notice posted in the doorway states: “As of Saturday 11/12/2021, Bar Wave will be closed untill further notice.

“Sorry for the inconvenience.”

The notorious bar serves some of Manchester’s cheapest drinks, with stickers in the windows still loudly promoting £2 specials all night.
