Best Restaurants in the Northern Quarter & Ancoats Manchester |
There are many restaurants
in the Northern Quarter Manchester, the fashionable bohemian
area of the city centre, which is crammed with places to
eat and drink.
Situated north of the Market Street and Arndale
shopping areas, sandwiched between Piccadilly Station and
the Manchester Arena, there's no better place to grab a
break from shopping than at one of the
many restaurants in the Northern Quarter.
The vast majority
of restaurants in Manchester's Northern Quarter
are independents and there's a whole host of friendly cafes
too.
We've also included the restaurants in Ancoats, the upcoming area on the opposite side of the ring road from the Northern Quarter. |
