A new 'picturesque' riverside gin bar is set open in a Greater Manchester village. The owners of the mobile bar Bee-ginning Gin Co, husband and wife duo David and Angela Gandy, have announced they are opening a permanent bar in their ‘dream location’ in the village of Uppermill in Saddleworth.

Named the Piano Lounge, the bar will be located next to the River Tame just off High Street in a ‘picturesque riverside setting’ and will ‘bring something a little different to the village’, according to the couple.
