Monday 23rd September - Located on Rose Street, the glamourous bar will make its Scottish debut, offering guests the New York vibe right in the heart of the city.

Set to officially open on Saturday 26th October, this new city centre hotspot promises to bring ‘big city buzz’ and a new level of excitement to Edinburgh’s lively nightlife scene.

The new location will feature striking design elements across two floors (ground level and basement) and guests can enjoy a dynamic and stylish setting with a combined area of 380 sq m. Both floors boast impressive art-deco-inspired arched back bars and bold lighting that channels the essence of New York streets. A stunning mirrored disco ball, reminiscent of Times Square's famous ball drop, adds a touch of glamour and an elevated DJ booth looks over the sprawling dancefloor - setting the perfect scene for chic gatherings and unforgettable parties.

There is something for everyone at Manahatta Edinburgh, with a packed events calendar and entertainment lineup. The new Edinburgh location will launch with the brand’s popular 'LIVE & LOUD Piano Night’ taking place every Thursday. Guests will be able to enjoy live music performances and get involved in the fun by sharing their musical requests - creating an upbeat atmosphere that’s perfect for dancing the night away.

Manahatta Edinburgh will offer unique pricing for cocktails with a special £7 offer available Monday through Thursday. The new cocktail menu will leave guests spoilt for choice, with favourites including the Diamonds are Forever sharer, which consists of Bacardí Carta Blanca, watermelon, kiwi, cranberry, apple, lime, soda poured straight from a giant diamond as well as refreshing signature cocktails from the Six in The City menu.

For those who want to enjoy delicious dining, Manahatta Edinburgh will also offer indulgent food menus including fan favourites such as the NY Club Bagel, Karaage Chicken Bowl and Bao Buns and renowned Steak Frites. Lunch time deals and small plates are also available.

The Edinburgh launch will see the arrival of Manahatta’s famous Boozy Brunch in the capital - bringing an unforgettable, electric atmosphere. This unmissable experience will run until 8pm daily and includes a package of six delectable drinks. Boozy Brunch provides the perfect opportunity to let loose, sing, dance, and soak up the vibrant energy of the hottest brunch spot in town.

Whether you’re looking for after-work drinks, glam get-togethers, brunch experiences or a weekend out, Manahatta Edinburgh is the place to be. The venue will also cater to private events with flexible options, including full floor or entire venue hire, perfect for celebrations such as birthdays, corporate events, and festive gatherings. Given the popularity of the venue and the upcoming holiday season, early booking is recommended for Christmas parties.

Part of Arc Inspirations, Manahatta Edinburgh joins an expanding portfolio of some of the UK’s most successful and exciting bars - with 17 established bars across nine locations in the UK, including Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Sheffield, York, and Harrogate.

Martin Wolstencroft, CEO, Arc Inspirations said: “Edinburgh is the perfect city for our debut in Scotland, and we’re excited to introduce our new interior design concept to this vibrant location. With a significant £2.45M investment in the site, we’re eager to offer an elevated and unique experience that captures the essence of New York in Scotland’s capital, complete with top-notch entertainment and a dynamic atmosphere.”

Bookings will open from Friday 27th September. For more information and to make your reservation, including early bookings for Christmas parties, visit https://www.manahatta.co.uk/bars/edinburgh
