Fab Cafe & Gelato

Awesome! Just awesome! Arcade machines in the corners, the cocktails are cute, I recommend the baby Yoda. The men toilets remind me of the fallout games, they're just themed that way, they were nice and clean. The people are friendly but I don't dance and people kept trying to coax me on to the dance floor . 10/10 would go again.

The place is cool AF and we were there with a joint Hen/Stag and the total legend behind the bar did us a free platter of shots with all sorts of sweets on it. Absolute legend, everyone had a great time for this stop on the day's mammoth journey. Great prices too considering central Manchester. 5/5 would recommened.

Cool geeky bar with lots of film and TV memorabilia from shows such as Doctor Who, Star Wars, Thunderbirds and Alien. Good drinks there as well and the DJ was playing some good old songs when we were there. My only mild criticism is that the music was so loud neither me or our friends could hear each other. But that's probably because I'm more used to old man pubs these days.

My favourite bar to visit - love the atmosphere and they have really nice pop culture themed cocktails. Also the games tattoo dispenser are a fun touch!

Half bar, half museum, Fab Cafe is a Manchester stalwart and a great place to chill. The decor alone is bound to start conversations, no matter the age or pop culture knowledge of your drinking buddies/date/stranger who suspiciously can't bend his little finger and the staff are a friendly lot.

Amazing bar with a lot of cool toys and comics related decorations all over the place. Fans from Star wars, Aliens, and a lot more comics would really appreciate this bar. Will definitely go back and friendly staff. They also have arcade games and foosball table!

Great bar with lots on during the week. Used to come here all the time when I was a student, was nice to come back for a visit ten years later and find it just as awesome, with lovely staff. Drinks aren't overpriced like a lot of other bars nearby either and toilets are pristine. Plus Tuesdays they have retro consoles which are free to use so me and the other half sat playing retro PS2 games all night. Ace!

I like fab cafe, it's a great geeky place. Bit on the quiet side these days and they did a great job on my birthday a few years ago. I loved it and it is somewhere I tend to at least have a pint whilst in Manchester. Do enjoy the place a lot

Still got one of the best play lists, and who doesn't like skittle shots, it's sci-fi geekness could be a little but stronger, also seems to be a step up in creepy predatory guys.

A very nerdy venue but that's perfect I'd say. Decor is awesome, music choices in there is mostly 80s/90s bangers along with rock and some other similar genres. Drinks are decently priced and the staff are decent.
