The debauched bar concept already has a loyal following in Manchester and Leeds
Behind Closed Doors is expanding to Liverpool this autumn. Since the brand’s conception in Manchester in 2017, the risque bar has become renowned for its signature cocktails and racy interior.
Following on from the successful launch of its second site in Leeds last summer, Behind Closed Doors will be opening a Liverpool location on Colquitt Street in September.
Behind Closed Doors was built on a fun and suggestive concept, with the bar’s Manchester site on Oldham Street historically known for its x rated video shops. Taking the venue’s heritage and combining it with the kitsch and comfortable bar that the team wanted to create, Behind Closed Doors was born, taking inspiration from living rooms in the 1960s and 70s with the added touch of debauchery and vintage erotica.
The 150-capacity Liverpool site will have a similar fit-out, being decked out in suggestive erotic decor, complete with phone lines to call other tables from and a DJ booth constructed from shopping trolleys.
Director of Behind Closed Doors, Nick Parr, explained: “We’re really excited to be opening our third Behind Closed Doors in the amazing city of Liverpool which is the third development in our North West expansion. We feel Liverpool has been ready for our concept of “sex, rugs & funk ’n’ soul’ for years now but we just needed to find the right venue. Our new space on Colquitt Street, close to Seel Street and the wider Ropewalks area couldn’t be more perfect and we can’t wait to open our doors in September.
“Behind Closed Doors is a very exciting, mysterious speakeasy style bar with risqué decor, naughty drinks and only the best boogie, funk and soul music to keep the party going all night long. If you love to let your hair down, appreciate great music and you’re looking for somewhere that’s a little bit different, Behind Closed Doors is for you!”
