Joe and Daniel Schofield, the brothers responsible for the acclaimed Schofield's bar, have announced that they're opening another Atomeca in the heart of Spinningfields after the successful running of their Deansgate branch.

Since its opening, Schofield's has had awards coming out of its ears, including the number one spot in the Top 50 Cocktail Bars in the UK, placing it on the top 100 list worldwide. However, while cocktails are the main focus at Schofield's, the new bar—its second—called Atomeca, will mimic its sibling's concept, predominantly focusing on—you guessed it—wine sourced from Provence in France, curated by wine expert James Brandwood.

There will also be a selection of small plates to whet the appetite, like pan con tomate, cheese plates, and fresh sandwiches, as well as coffee and cocktails inspired by continental Europe.

Atomeca is set to open in autumn at The Avenue, Spinningfields.
