MOTLEY Manchester, the city centre bar located in YOTEL Manchester Deansgate, is announcing a new initiative to celebrate Father’s Day this year.

From June 16 to June 18, 2023, all dads can ditch their unwanted socks and swap them for a complimentary pint . The socks will then be gifted to acclaimed local homeless charity, Coffee4Craig.

The Sock Swap initiative aims to provide a fun opportunity for dads to get rid of unwanted sock presents in exchange for a well-deserved complimentary pint.

Dads will also be given a voucher to receive 15% food and drink on their next visit to MOTLEY Manchester, which embodies MOTLEY’s pillars of eat, drink and hangout.
