Beat 'n' Track, Whitworth Street West

As Beat 'n' Track this place was open during the day as more of a bar than a club in the late '90s, early '00s. This odd venue opposite Deansgate Locks, built onto the old Knott Mill / Deansgate station became Area 51, a poncey all-night club, having been a few different names over recent years including Emporia nightclub.

However, this closed in July 2010 [1]. There is a gentleman's club next door, Obsessions, which being wholesome chaps, of course, we haven't visited (there are no pictures of ale on the 'Gallery' section).
