Don't bother going for a night out drinking unless you're a teen 😏 Not been to the cinema here yet but will increase the review for a day trip when able to.
The location feels like absolute central because it's next to the arndale and victoria train station however it's on the edge of this side of the city. The screen inside is impressive but they should have probably reduced rents inside or helped the business with promotion. Nightlife isn't the same anymore and it's between whether spoons and walkabout, bierkeller is underground so most people walk past. The architecture from outside and all the screens makes it feel almost like times square.

The Printworks isn't just a place for food and movies—it’s a full-on sensory experience. The first thing you notice walking in is the massive digital ceiling screen that spans across the central atrium. It plays vibrant visuals, seasonal themes, and ambient light shows that give the whole space an immersive, futuristic vibe—almost like walking into a digital art gallery. The space feels industrial yet modern, with high ceilings, metal walkways, and lighting installations that really bring it to life—especially at night. If you're into digital art, immersive spaces, or just want that "wow" moment for your photos, it's worth a visit for the visuals alone. have to come here again
Great venue for plenty of bars and restaurants I have been visiting for many years now as there is a Nando in there I’ve also been into the old German beer shop as we have a business networking meeting in there The food is absolutely incredible one of a treat on a Wednesday morning
The Printworks is a fantastic spot to visit in Manchester, offering a lively atmosphere and a great selection of entertainment, dining, and nightlife options. The architecture, especially the ceiling, adds a unique charm to the place, making it visually stunning. The variety of venues inside makes it a go-to destination for different moods—whether you're after a casual meal, a fun night out, or just soaking in the vibrant energy. The space is well-organized, but like any popular spot, it can get busy during peak hours. Overall, a great place to experience, with a lively setting and an aesthetic touch that stands out!
