Pub in Manchester

Zombie Shack also runs a pub under our cocktail bar. The Thirsty Scholar offers free events and a great selection of drinks. Visit today for a great night out.

With its dedication to free entry for all events, The Thirsty Scholar has long been recognised as one of Manchester’s best pubs for live entertainment hosting everything from band and poetry nights to comedy nights and regular 60's/Northern Soul DJs over the weekend.



With a welcoming atmosphere and a great selection of drinks, it makes a perfect midweek night out. Over the weekend, the pub has more of a club feel to it, with people dancing all night to classic ‘60s tunes.
