Su questo posto Vanilla

Vanilla is one of Manchester's longest-running lesbian and queer women's bars, in the Gay Village just off Canal Street. It is a straightforward late bar with DJs, a dance floor and a busy weekend crowd. The door policy prioritises women: men are often admitted only with female friends, and reviewers report it being enforced unevenly. Reviews are mixed (3.1 from 81 on Google). Some mention a tired, sticky interior, while others single out friendly staff. It is busiest on Friday and Saturday nights, and the rest of the Village bars are a short walk away if the door does not work out.

Liars. Three non drinkers tried my diet coke and vodka but none of them tasted the vodka. Bar staff adamant drink contained vodka. If it did (which I doubt) then it was heavily watered down. Will not be back.

You advertise as lesbian bar … and we came on Friday at the entrance your staff said there is only entry for gay man because there is some venue . I found it very disrespectful knowing you are only one lesbian bar in Manchester. Shame !! Friday night !

tried to come in, half the group made it in, the half that made it in got inappropriately grinded on by men, whilst the rest of the group tried to the join then we got told it was a ‘lesbian club’ they never asked for genders even when got told there was gay men inside, think they let in off of look as there was many out side facing the same issue and was told they ‘would be let inside’

A man came into the bathroom and threatened to beat me up with all his friends. Guess he couldn’t handle me one-on-one I’ve heard all the stories, idk why expected tonight to be different, but the stories are all true. Vanilla is for anyone but women

We tried to enter however as we had 2 girls and 1 boy they declined entry as they closed entry before 2pm. Let multiple girls in the club after 2pm , upon questioning they said the club wouldn’t allot more people in. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community I felt isolated and discriminated against. The bouncers were not welcoming at all and I was made to feel like less than a person. This behaviour is not what I expect of gay village and I will not be attending again. Date of attendence and was Saturday 31st May- 1st June 2025

Where to start. Wouldn’t let us in because we had a male friend with us. So so so rude. Never experienced anything like it, the bouncers think they’re above everyone, I suppose they think they’re in a position of power, pick and choose who they let in because 2 minutes later they let in a male 🤣🤣🤣 absolute joke. Club Tropicana is the way forward 😆🤣

Bar staff were very rude. Telling my friend to use her manners when they had no manners at all. They shouldn’t be working behind a bar with that attitude. Ruined me and my friend’s night. Also, very clicky, only go in if your face fits. So rude.
