Stag and Hen Manchester Illusions Magic Bar VIP Opening






























The Stag and Hen Manchester team accepted an invite to go to the grand VIP opening of Illusions Magic Bar last night and thought that we would twin it with a meal at the Hard Rock Cafe to celebrate Sharon our hen expert’s birthday.

We booked a table at 7.15pm at the Hard Rock Cafe Manchester and when we arrived were greeted by the friendly staff and immediately taken to our own booth and given menus to choose what we having. We opted to wait until after the meal to have some of their legendary cocktails and instead opted for a cheeky pink number from their wine list to go with our food. To start with we shared some Tupelo Chicken Tenders for mains Sharon went for Caesar Salad and Grilled Shrimp and I went for the Hickory Smoked Pulled Pork sandwich and then we evened squeezed in a desert Creme Brulee for Sharon and I opted for the strawberry cheesecake. Everything was top notch and we stuffed ourselves!

The restaurant’s popularity shone through as even on a Tuesday night it was bustling with people throughout the course of our meal and the friendly team were very attentive to sort out everyone’s need no matter how big or small the group. There was an atmosphere with rock music on in the background but the important thing is that you can still hear each other talk. They have the mix just right at the Manchester Hard Rock Cafe.

We finished up our meal and then headed down to the legendary Hard Rock Cafe Manchester cocktail bar where Luke whipped us up an Electric Long Island Iced Tea (one for the stags) and a Raspberry Prosecco (one for the hens). Luke is one of the bar tenders that will be doing some of our cocktail masterclasses and that is because he knows his stuff and hens he isn’t bad to look at!! Both stag cocktail masterclasses and hen cocktail masterclasses are available at the Hard Rock Cafe right through from midday to midnight if needs be and prices start from just £35 per person for 2 hours of mixing fun!

Following our meal we headed around the corner in the Printworks to Illusions Magic bar where after a few weeks of soft opening they had rolled out the red carpet and were having a grand opening. Stag and Hen Manchester always enjoy a trip into Illusions Magic Bar as the cocktails are superb and thanks to our special exclusive deal are 2-4-1 with wristbands we will organise and the magic always leaves us open mouthed. Misdirection is the name of the game and no matter how hard we try we never see the slight of hand it is truly amazing.

It is a brilliant and ultimately different venue as it is one of only two branded magic bars in the entirety of the United Kingdom and on a Manchester Stag Weekend or Manchester Hen Weekend you can experience it for hardly any money at all. Entrance is free and we will give your discount drink wristbands for free aswell all you need do is tag it onto your enquiry that you send us , it is that simple.

Once you have a drink you can sit at the “Magic Bar” where magicians will do shows from 7pm onwards throughout the night and once you have finished with the magic why not try the acoustic guitar or piano live music that is played on a Friday and Saturday night and all before you pop next door for the Manchester clubbing experience at Pure or across the road to the Birdcage. In Manchester stag nights and hen nights out are that easy!!
