THE APPEAL OF DAMON RUNYON, the New York storyteller, newspaperman and sportswriter came from his mastery, but also invention, of 1920s American slang – a mixture of the ‘louche and the lugubrious’ according to the New Yorker magazine. He would go to Lindy’s, an all-night Jewish deli on Broadway that became Mindy’s in his stories, and listen.Runyon married a down-on-her-luck Spanish countess from Madrid, 26 years his younger, who turned out to be an up-on-her-heels Mexican dancer from Tampico. When he died his ashes were taken up in a plane and sprinkled all over New York.

Influenced by the late night dives of lower east side New York, PUBLIC is the latest opening on the square. Open every day 'til late, we've got cold beers, cocktails, natural wines and a food menu filled with Chinatown-inspired bangers. As well as the interiors filled with local artists and good energy, we've got plenty of seats outside on the sunny side of the square. We're walk-ins only with the exception of Bottomless Brunch every weekend 12-5pm.

We now have 3 restaurants across the UK, our newly opened flagship Deansgate store and 2 state of the art 100+ seat, vibrant restaurants in the bustling centre of Glasgow.Now it’s time for us to take over Manchester bringing our individual, out of the box concept to Deansgate. Filling the streets with the sweet scent of daily freshly baked goods, a feast for the eyes with our hand-made artisanal ice cream, the chilly touch of ice-cold shakes and of course, making Manchester’s mouths water with our famous succulent burgers.

    My first time visiting here - booked online (quick & easy) and although we arrived 15mins before our specified time we were given a table almost right away. The menu had plenty of choice, all the staff were fantastic and the prices on par with a lot of other eateries. There are lots of great memorabilia around the place which is very interesting to look at. I will certainly visit again (and next time have one of the cocktails and get a souvenir glass too (you can buy them separately but you get one free of charge if you have the drink).

    We booked in as staying in the hotel, we booked for 5.30pm We was sat down efficiently. Waitress and waiter was very helpful with how the menu worked and let us know if there was anything unavailable. Drinks arrived quickly. We ordered some small plates too share, mac and cheese croquet, fish goujons and sticky ribs they where amazing. All freshly prepared. Then for mains we ordered the pork belly noodles, burger, steak and fish and chips again all incredible. Chef came out to speak to us to make sure food was all good, this was great as we was out with parents so they really liked this touch to the service. Had a chat about our evening as we was watching peter kay. Couldn't fault the service or staff and we all really enjoyed the food. We would highley recommend.
