The Vega Lounge

Not many people immediately head to the casino in order for a night cap or two, but Vega Lounge, part of the 235 Casino and one of the few successes within the rather sparse Great Northern Warehouse, is also one of the few bars open until 6am (and open again at noon). Obviously, people come here to gamble, so it goes without saying that it’s not the trendiest atmosphere - or indeed the place to go with anyone inclined to purchase an excess of scratchcards. The setting is loosely inspired by Vegas (no surprises there), and serves made-to-order food as well as drink, including an extensive and popular cocktail collection. Located just off Deansgate, there’s no real dress code despite the glamorous theme, but management and security like to maintain a low-key atmosphere, and might not admit large, rowdy groups enjoying usual 4am behaviour.
