A THRIVING FOOD AND DRINK SCENE ALL WITHIN A 5 MINUTE WALK

Cafe society… from a lingering latte to a hasty espresso, every option’s available. Try Grindsmith in Greengate Square – an independent café, aiming to serve the best coffee in Manchester.

The Corn Exchange offers food lovers many top-name restaurants, under one historic roof – including Banyan Bar & Kitchen, Cosy Club, Mowgli, Pho, Pizza Express, Salvi’s, Tampopo, The Real Greek and Zizzi. Sixes, a new concept in social cricket, also offers a great food and drinks menu as well as the sporting challenge.

Many other dining, drinking and entertainment options are close at hand, too. Printworks features 17 bars and restaurants, a Nuffield Fitness & Wellbeing Gym and a 23-screen cinema, whilst the well-established Eagle Inn on the other side of the river provides a traditional pub atmosphere with live music.

And there’s much more...

The Stoller Hall, part of Chetham’s School of Music, is a great venue for chamber music, showcasing local and touring professional musicians. Also nearby is the National Football Museum, one of Manchester’s top-rated attractions.

There are shopping options aplenty, with the Arndale Centre just a few minutes’ walk away and home to more than 200 shops, and high end brands available at Selfridges and Harvey Nichols. Plus, there’s a Sainsbury’s Local on the doorstep at Greengate and an M&S flagship store close by.

And commuters arriving at Victoria Station have a range of convenient bars and shops available until 11pm every day.
