Eastern Bloc
5a Stevenson Square
About
Eastern Bloc is a long-established record store and café in Manchester's Stevenson Square, selling drum and bass, jungle, dubstep, house, techno and electronica. The venue doubles as a bar and event space with a strong community atmosphere. Reviewers mention good coffee and food, friendly staff, and outdoor seating on picnic tables overlooking the square. The space recently underwent renovations.
For working purposes, little is documented in reviews about Wi-Fi, power outlets, or extended stays. The café is open until late on weekends, though the seating capacity and working environment are not detailed.
