Your finish line saviour is back. We're incredibly excited to announce that we are returning as the Official Beer Partner of the AJ Bell Great Manchester Run 2026. 

Whether you’re running or supporting, no race is complete without a celebratory post-race pint. We’ve pulled together a list of venues within walking distance of the finish line where you can enjoy a refreshing Lucky Saint. 

The best bit? Show your medal to the bar team at any of these venues and the pint is on us. 

Court’s Club 

One of Manchester’s favourites, Court’s Club hosts the official 2026 Lucky Saint Afterparty. Just a five-minute walk from the finish line, with free pints, a DJ and plenty of photo opportunities, it’s the perfect spot to celebrate. See you there. 

The Wharf 

A Castlefield favourite, The Wharf sits right on the canal and has one of the best outdoor spots in the city. Ideal for a post-run pint and bite to eat in the Manchester sunshine. 

New Century 

Just a short walk from Victoria Station, New Century brings together some of Manchester’s best independent food traders in a landmark city centre space. 

Studio IV, Mollie’s 

Set in the old Granada Studios building, Mollie’s mixes Manchester heritage with a polished, laid-back feel. Just a stone's throw away from the Great Manchester Run finish line. 

Salmon of Knowledge 

A Modern Irish pub in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. With live sports and music across the weekend, make sure to swing by for a celebratory golden pint. 

Hinterland 

Built around great drinks and a strong social atmosphere, Hinterland is one of Manchester’s leading alcohol-free venues. The perfect spot to recover with a pint in a feel-good setting. 

Nell’s Kampus & Common 

Nell’s Kampus and Nell’s Common are two of Manchester’s favourites, famous for their giant New York-style pizza slices. Pairing perfectly with a pint of Lucky Saint, these are ideal spots for filling up after the big race.
