Make way for Bar Shrimp
The team behind top Manchester spots Higher Ground and Flawd, as well as market garden, Cinderwood, have announced they have a new opening on the way this winter in the form of Bar Shrimp. Founders Daniel Craig Martin, Joseph Otway, and Richard Cossins announced the news on Cerys Matthews' BBC Radio 6 Music show at the weekend, in keeping with the trio's vision for Bar Shrimp as a place ‘where drinks, seafood and sound are seamlessly connected’.
