“ A live performance by a jazz/soul singer called Dominique was absolutely amazing. Fitzgerald's is always a great late night out but today was even better than normal. A really happy crowd was out, spending their first paypacket since Christmas. Drinks are quite pricey but no more so than other late night venues in Manchester. ”
“ Visited for the bottomless brunch with the bad bunny burlesque, Compare was amazing sang some lovely songs and the burlesque acts were outstanding. Bar staff were great with keeping the drinks flowing. Food was hot and very tasty. After the show the performers came on stage for photos which we thought was a very nice touch. Thank you again will be back. ”

They had a fantastic lounge singer which we were lucky enough to catch the end of her set and then great background music that set the scene after. Matthew made us all feel very welcome, comfortable and made some brillant cocktails. (2 for 14) would highly recommend! ”
