Grit, Glamour, and The Garrison
In this city, we don’t do romance by the book. We don’t do quiet, and we certainly don’t do predictable. At Peaky Blinders Manchester, we believe that the most memorable nights are built on a foundation of style, high energy, and the kind of atmosphere that commands your attention from the moment you step inside. This February, we’re inviting you and your chosen company to our 1920s-inspired halls for a celebration that trades standard sentiment for pure Mancunian soul.
Whether you’re looking to impress a new flame or toast to a long-standing partnership, Valentine’s Day in our neck of the woods is about more than just a meal. It’s a ritual. From the flicker of the lights to the roar of the live music, we’ve curated an evening that captures a timeless aesthetic, reimagined for the modern city. You don’t need a reason to celebrate, but we’ve given you a damn good one.

A Shrewd Choice for Valentine’s Day in Manchester
We know our guests expect a certain standard when they sit down at our tables. For those planning their Valentine’s Day in Manchester, we’ve put together a bespoke 3-course set menu that strikes the perfect balance between classic comfort and premium theatre. At £35.00 per person, it’s a deal designed for those who know quality when they see it.
But we aren’t just serving food; we’re serving an evening. Your booking includes 90 minutes of free-flow Prosecco and Peaky Lager, ensuring the spirits stay high from the first course to the last. For those who prefer to explore our signature libations, our bartenders will be shaking up a range of exclusive, themed cocktails alongside our usual handcrafted classics.
The Menu: Starters, Mains, and the Final Flourish
Every good story needs a strong opening. Our starters are designed to set the tone for the night. You might opt for the Scotch Egg—encased in Cumberland sausage and served on a bed of Piccalilli purée—a proper nod to tradition. Alternatively, our Mushroom Bruschetta with Masala wine and vegan cream offers a sophisticated start, while our Bourbon Honey Glaze wings provide a hit of sweet, smoky heat.
When it comes to the main event, our kitchen doesn’t hold back. Our Signature Peaky Burger is a staple for a reason, featuring a beef patty with caramelised onions and our secret burger sauce. If you’re looking for something more substantial, our Sirloin Steak—served with homemade peppercorn sauce and your choice of fries or chunky chips—is the definitive choice (available with a £5.00 surcharge). For those seeking lighter fare, our Pasta Genovese with red pesto or our traditional Hand Battered Line-Caught Haddock are ready to satisfy.
No night at the Garrison is complete without a final flourish. Our Triple Chocolate Cake with Swiss chocolate ganache is unapologetically indulgent, while our Lemon Posset offers a sharp, creamy citrus hit to cleanse the palate. For the traditionalists, the Sticky Toffee Pudding with clotted cream remains the undisputed heavyweight champion of our dessert menu.
Cocktails, Live Music, and the Atmosphere of the Night
At Peaky Blinders Manchester, we know that the menu is only half the battle. To truly host a night like this, you need the right soundtrack. Throughout the evening, we will have live performances and musicians taking to the stage, filling the air with the kind of energy that has made our home on Peter Street the city’s premier social destination.
The atmosphere will be electric—a blend of 1920s flair and 21st-century pulse. While you enjoy your 90 minutes of free-flow drinks, we’ll be keeping the energy high with live brass and soulful vocals. It’s the perfect backdrop for a night of conversation and laughter. If you are joining us as part of a larger group, we also offer Private Bar Hire for those who want to claim a specific corner of the venue for their own celebration.
