A staple of The Printworks, one of Manchester’s most vivid hubs for food, drink and entertainment, Around the World acts as an excellent venue to grab a bite amidst a day of exploring and retail therapy as well as a brilliant watering hole to enjoy a few masterfully made cocktails after catching the latest blockbuster at the cinema housed within the same complex.
Now accepting the Gourmet Society card, those visiting with their membership, whether it’s as a physical card or a digital version, can indulge in all manners of mouth-watering, internationally inspired fare at an incredible price. The Gourmet Society discounts create ample opportunities to turn a modest example of eating out into a glorious excuse to dine out, thanks in no small part to the myriad tantalising options adorning both the a la carte menu and the extensive drinks list.
Ideal as accompaniments to a few drinks as well as an excellent way to kick off a fantastic feast, the small plates act as superb taste bud tantalisers, featuring the likes of the divine buttermilk popcorn chicken, partnered with skinny fries and a variety of dipping sauces, the scrumptious salmon, lemon & parsley fishcake, complete with garlic bread and a dressed house salad, and the classic nachos, adorned with Mozzarella & Cheddar cheese, jalapenos and sun-dried tomatoes.
Equally as eclectic and just as enticing are the many main courses available to choose from. Outstanding selections include the refreshing Brie & cranberry salad, tossed with cherry tomatoes, a cranberry dressing and available with bacon, the fiery Al Capone pizza, topped with pepperoni, red onions and the house Chili, and the gargantuan Southern Belle, a 6oz premium beef burger stacked with southern fried chicken, a stuffed chilli pepper and breadcrumb encased & lightly fried cheese.
With so much more to choose from, such as some heavenly desserts, Around the World serves as so much more than just an excellently laid back bar.
