On a cold, wet and rainy afternoon back in January 2001, we happened to stumble across a bar called Pimlico in the Northern Quarter. The bar had been shut for several months and been in a pretty bad state. It was June 2001 when we finally opened the doors to what is now known as Simple.
Simple was opened by Michael Huckerby, Vikki Harris and Carl Taylor. The bar has seen many things over the years including its fourth birthday party, where Shaun Wright Phillips contributed over £2,000 helping us break the £7,000 mark for our charity auction.
Simple was the first bar in the Northern Quarter to focus on food, and since we opened an amazing 9 bars have opened in 5 years, making the Northern Quarter the place to be.
Fast forward to present day and with Simples new look and menu it has reinstated its self as the place to eat with in the Northern Quarter
