A Guide to Manchester's New Openings in 2021
"Beer District sell a huge range of over 400 craft ales as well as artisan, small batch whiskeys, gins and vodkas. Forest Gin, for example, is an award winning spirit, distilled in small batches at the their distillery next to Macclesfield Forest and Elements of Islay is a range of single malt whiskies made as single casks or as individual batches from the island of Islay in Scotland – just a few of the specialities you’ll find in store. The gift boxes holding 6 bottles of ale are ideal for Dad or brother as a pressie, or, if you’re not sure what to get, they sell gift vouchers."
"Unusually colourful (its orange banquettes and Perspex back-bar give it a look of a 1980s Top of the Pops set), this Dale Street tap-house serves a mix of quality guest beers (Wild Beer, Mikeller, Burning Sky), and Beatnikz’ hop-forward brews, such as I Smash Citra and Generation IPA. The weekday cask ale deals are notable (recently pie ‘n’ a pint £5, Mon/Tues), as is Beatnikz’s ability to bag high-profile guests for its meet-the-brewer events. For instance Arbor Ales and US star Modern Times. Pint from £3.70, beatnikzrepublic.com"
"Beatnikz microbrewery is located in a railway arch in the Green Quarter, and their taproom used to be too. But they closed it last year and moved to a shiny new bar in the Northern Quarter where they’ve just introduced a beer slushie machine. Head in to enjoy their core range of beers."
"Regarded highly by CAMRA as one of the best local pubs (on numerous occasions, we should add), the Prairie Schooner Taphouse on Flixton Road features a selection of hand-pulled ales and craft kegs on tap. Not only that, but you can also buy a selection of bottled and canned beers from all over the world to take home with you."
"Another one that you'll have to exercise patience for is the RNCM (Royal Northern College of Music), which is - understandably - prioritising the return of students and tutors. You can see the latest updates at www.rncm.ac.uk."
"The Royal Northern College of Music is an internationally acclaimed conservatoire, as well as an eclectic performance venue delivering a diverse programme of music and opera performances."
"The building of the Dancehouse Theatre has had a fascinating history full of transformation, morphing from meeting halls to a multi-screen cinema complex. In the 1990s it was restored to its former Art Deco splendour and was reopened as The Dancehouse Theatre, home to the Northern Ballet School. While the venue presents a broad range of performances including comedy, music and drama, dance lies at the heart of this North West icon."
"Proudly standing in the heart of this spa town is Buxton Opera House. Designed by celebrated theatre architect Frank Matcham, it opened amidst great celebration on 1st June 1903. You can still enjoy year-round live performances here and it’s always worth checking online to see what’s on."
"Seed & Cherry in the trendy Northern Quarter offers a unique artisan coffee experience. Alongside this, you can enjoy breakfast or brunch which includes a variety of healthy and creative recipes served as small plates. Its unique menu means you can try a variety of European and Mediterranean style savoury brunch dishes and still have room for its famous French toast."
"After an afternoon exploring the gardens, look forward to refuelling with a warming coffee or hot chocolate at this delightful Buxton cafe!. Choose from a superb selection of sandwiches, fresh salads, and soups before tucking into one of their tasty homemade bakes. For those early risers, you will find a heart-warming breakfast menu which will certainly set you up for tackling the rolling hills of the national park."

"Upstairs At Charlotte’s is good for snacks – particularly its homemade baked goods – and lunches. And chocolate, of course – the original Charlotte’s is a chocolate shop. Both are in Cavendish Arcade."
