Camerons Brewery-owned The Head of Steam has announced that its first venue in Manchester city centre will open its doors at 3pm on Friday, 28th November.
The company has transformed a grade II listed building, at 16 Newton Street, right on the edge of the Northern Quarter, into its 16th venue.
And to mark the opening it is giving away 1,995 free pints — a nod to the year it all began, and the brand’s long-standing ethos of making craft beer accessible, relevant, and fun.
Craft beer fans can be in with a chance of winning a free pint of the Head of Steam’s own IPA, Lager, or Gold by signing up via a link here.
The new 2,800 sq ft venue, with space for 180 guests, will feature a striking central island bar and restored industrial features, bringing an extensive beer selection to the Northern Quarter, with 30 lines serving 24 kegs and six cask options. Guests can look forward to Belgian favourites, such as Delirium, Brugse Zot, and La Chouffe, alongside The Head of Steam’s own British-brewed range and other exceptional beers from top breweries around the world.
A cocktail menu and premium spirits range will also be available, complemented by a bespoke wine list created for the venue.
The Head of Steam will be home to a pop-up kitchen from Salford legends That Burger Place, bringing the brand’s award-winning burgers to Manchester city centre for the very first time.
“We’re incredibly proud to confirm our opening date in the Northern Quarter,” said Head of Steam retail director, David Scott. “It’s one of the most vibrant areas in Manchester, and the perfect place to bring our craft beer community together.
“With some fantastic West Coast beers on offer, partnering with That Burger Place, a food brand who share that love for bold West Coast flavours, just made perfect sense.”
The opening will create 14 new jobs locally.
