Portfolio MCR
Manchester
At a glance
Portfolio MCR is a champagne boutique, bar and tasting-menu restaurant at 67-69 Bridge Street in Manchester. The venue offers two distinct formats: a bar focused on champagne, drinks and bar snacks, and a restaurant built around a structured tasting-menu experience.
The champagne boutique and bar provides a drinks-led setting for a more flexible visit. Bar reservations are available for guests interested in champagne, other drinks and small plates rather than a full restaurant menu. The format suits an aperitif, a relaxed drink or a lighter food-focused occasion, with the bar operating as a separate part of the venue.
The restaurant centres on multi-course tasting menus served across lunch and dinner. The menus are designed as extended dining experiences, making the restaurant a suitable choice for celebrations, special occasions and diners who prefer a planned progression of dishes. The cuisine is presented through the tasting-menu format rather than as a conventional à la carte offer, so the overall experience is more structured than casual.
Champagne is central to Portfolio MCR's identity. Pairings are available with the restaurant menus, adding a wine-led element to the meal for diners looking to match the courses with a curated selection. The combination of a specialist champagne focus, a dedicated bar and a tasting-menu restaurant gives the venue a clear identity without reducing it to a single type of visit.
Portfolio MCR works best for diners who value a reservation-led experience and a measured pace. The restaurant is suited to occasions where the meal itself is the main focus, while the bar offers a less formal way to experience the venue. Separate reservations for the bar and restaurant help define the intended format before arrival.
Located on Bridge Street, the venue is positioned for a city-centre Manchester dining plan. The address also makes it practical to combine with an evening in the surrounding central area, although the venue's own offering remains focused on champagne, drinks, bar snacks and tasting-menu dining.
