Avenida / Auntie's Kitchen, Clarence Street

Croma, formerly Avenida, Clarence Street. (c) googlemaps.

The impressive looking Croma Italian restaurant tucked off Albert Square down Clarence Street was, in the swinging '60s, Avenida.  This club gets a very brief but specific mention in an article about the famous Blue Note club which used to stand next door to Pubs of Manchester HQ, the Waldorf, on Gore Street [1].  It looks like this place was also known as Auntie's Kitchen at some point as well [2].
