Oh yes! There was still electric to the basement, the taps all worked, but the beer was flat, and there were loads of mixers and cans on the back shelf behind the bar.

Plus, the ceiling tiles hadn't got wet and fallen in, so the place was dry and clean.

We held an "Explore Manchester" (Battledroid's predecessor of NWEX) forum party there many years ago!



The first pic when we found the basement:



Ironically we'd explored the entire building from the ground up and was about to leave when Romanian1 thought he'd just check out a stairwell at the back (entrance was through the front door back then). When we returned with Battledroid we tidied up the bar to the state you can see in the first pic.
