360 Lounge

As a non-​smoker Shisha bars aren’t exactly on top of my list of goto places. However, whilst I remain a non-​smoker at heart, trying out some flavoured shisha at Zouk at the last Unilocal event certainly left me wanting more.
So, when at the conclusion of a late dinner (catching up with an old school friend) a few weeks ago the subject of Shisha came up, I didn’t need too much convincing,
After an unsuccessful venture into Buddha bar around 12:30am when they’d run out of Shishas (odd?) we decided to head to Manchester’s Shisha capital (Rusholme) The quality of the various Shisha bars along the Curry Mile has gone up exponentially since the seedy looking haunts that started popping up over a decade ago.
It’s difficult to miss 360 Lounge as you walk along Wilmslow road past Beirut, the bright green lights along the side wall are impossible to miss. A shisha and coffee came to a reasonable £15 between the three of us and there was plenty to go around. The atmosphere was relaxed and the crowd was pleasent. If Zouk is closed, don’t be shy venturing to these parts for Shisha.
