Ive been here twice and what an amazing place, the venue is absolutely spotless, the owners should be very proud, the toilets are super clean like clean, the cleanest ive been in. The whole entire place is so tidy and well kept, halloween decorations are so neatly presented and to the vibe. The entertainment is on point with the village, I feel very proud as a gay man to be here and enjoy this, the staff are on point they deserve 5stars for absolutely everything they should be throughly proud of what they have achieved I'm glad I found this hidden gem. I will return many times over and I would have no problem in recommending the goose to as many people as i could. Thankyou. Xx

Really like this bar. Has a neighborhood feel rather than the tourist vibe I get from Canal Street bars. Good drag show. Good music. Attractive crowd.

Spent a lot of Pride weekend there. So much fun

Ever since I moved to Manchester, The Goose has become one of the places I actually enjoy going to. Some nights might be super busy but the times that are quiet are actually nice if you want to have a beer or too. The bartenders are super friendly and a big shout out to the girl with the red hair she's a super star, it's always nice to see her.Edit 18/07/2023. Her name is Jo and till this day she is still a superstar. I have not changed my opinion about the Goose!

Thursday nights with Marie La Rae are absolutely fantastic

Absolutely love the Goose. My favourite bar in the village. Good music, great atmosphere and Ben, behind the bar, remembers what I drink.
Paula Coulson
Love it, our regular when visiting Manchester. Friendly, good entertainment and a great night out, especially karaoke on a Friday.

The whole experience in this bar was terrible. They could do to improve inclusiveness as it was extremely unfriendly and confrontational. It could do with a good clean too. It’s pretty basic and with the amount of good bars in the area, if you’re not in the clique, don’t go in!

Came here on a Friday night, the place was packed but bar staff were super quick. Great venue, really good atmosphere

Food pic’s inbound ? this place is on a different level omg ? egg sandwich ? hash browns, kinder Donut ? and the star if the show the French toast ? amazing 5 star ?
spoke with Shaun the new Barman this afternoon who is a great addition to the Goose. My favourite pub because the drag queens have heart and the bar staff look you in the eye when they serve you a pint. The Goose is real and my Number One. Thanks Guys, Greg

Not a bar I would ever return to. It seems that if you’re not a regular there you’re not made very welcome. Atmosphere not very enjoyable and I felt uncomfortable.
Luke Proctor
Not the bar it used to be. Now, it's about treating some clientele better than others. Bar staff just laughed as another customer received personal abuse, mocking his looks. Very confrontational and unfriendly venue. Avoid if possible. Far better options elsewhere in the village. Not the place it used to be. Filthy, too.

Great LGBT bar in the heart of Manchester. The drag queen does DJ and karaoke there and she's entertaining. The prices are great and the vibe is good over there. I highly recommend it for a night out or a quick drink while bar hopping around canal Street in Manchester and the gay village.

Experienced a very unprofessional bar tender who also seemed to be drinking at a table with friends whilst on shift. Was very rude. We attended many other bars in the area and their staff was lovely and polite. Would never return, seemed very clicky and if they didn't know you they wasn't interested in ur custom.
