During spooky season, Corroded Coffins and Vecna’s Twist are set to make special appearances at NQ64 Northern Quarter on 31^st October, as Manchester’s arcade-themed bar announces a night of horrors, with its ‘Nightmare on Short Street’ themed Halloween party. The night will be filled with cocktails inspired by Stranger Things, retro games and prizes for best costumes courtesy of Jack Daniels.

Tasty treats for this year’s Halloween party include two cocktails inspired by Stranger Things – Corroded Coffin and the demogorgeous Vecna’s Twist, which will be served alongside NQ64’S brand new retro game cocktail menu.

Nightmare on Short Street is a free event which will be held in NQ64 in the Northern Quarter in Manchester on 31^st October from 7pm. Student and industry discounts will be available all night.

In addition to NQ64’s Halloween-inspired cocktails, the arcade bar will also be serving up cocktails from its brand-new retro game inspired menu, launched earlier this month, which includes their very first non-alcoholic additions. The new menu was created and developed by bar tenders from each of NQ64’s venues across the UK, via an internal competition to get everyone involved with developing the menu across their nine venues in the UK.

James Taylor, NQ64 Drinks Development and Training Manager, told us: “At NQ64 we are always looking for inspiration when it comes to our venues, whether this is through finding new arcade games or developing our bar menus. With drinks being such a huge part of the NQ64 experience, we always like to keep the menu fun and fresh by adding exciting twists to game-inspired cocktails”.
