Described by the Observer's esteemed food critic Jay Rayner, in August 2020, as "a place where good things happen," Street Urchin was opened on Great Ancoats Street, in June 2019, by husband and wife team Kevin and Rachel Choudhary, who previously ran The Victoria pub in Altrincham.

An "English market diner"; the menu and wine list at this intimate Northern Quarter restaurant changes daily to reflect the best produce available, and is presented on a blackboard.

Seafood and fish get top billing - Kevin's father is a Grimsby fisherman, after all - however there are plenty of meat, vegetarian and vegan dishes here to reflect the best of British cooking.
