Location and ambience

Situated at the top of King Street, the Manchester venue resides within a breath-taking Art Deco building, standing majestically alongside Manchester’s iconic Gotham Hotel. The restaurant spans three floors and features opulent dining vaults.  In addition to the main restaurant there are also extensive private dining spaces and private bars to elevate every event.  

The ethos behind the Lucky Cat brand, which hopes to expand worldwide, is to fuse the vibrant atmosphere of 1930s Tokyo kissas and drinking dens.
