The team behind the Dockyard MediaCityUK are getting in the mood for summer with the launch of their new bar called ‘The Shack’.
The Tiki-style bar is due set to open on 1 May and will be serving tropical-style drinks from a wooden style shack adorned with Tiki heads, driftwood, curios and palm trees.
It follows on from the same team’s winter warming pop-up bar The Lodge, which was set in a series of tipis outside the BBC buildings by the Manchester Ship Canal.
Steve Pilling, owner of the Dockyard and the Shack said: “We had great fun running the winter Lodge last year and therefore wanted to create another cool pop-up bar where people can have some sizzling, summer fun!
“Our vision for The Shack is to offer a great space where people can enjoy a cocktail (or two) and a bite to eat, in a setting that gives a real relaxing holiday vibe”.
Stephen Wild, managing director of MediaCityUK said:
“As we head into summer and the weather warms up, it’s great to be able to offer our visitors, employees and residents a new bar where they can relax with family and friends.
“The Lodge was a great success last winter and Dockyard has been a welcome addition to MediaCityUK, so we look forward to seeing what fun the Shack will bring over the summer months”.
