The most Instagrammed bars and restaurants in Manchester revealed
"Not because it's hugely over-hyped (which it is) and not because, at weekends, the queue for a table will sap your will to live. No, I almost didn't include it because AF sells itself in a very un-Manchester tone of, not hipster cool exactly, more lippy idiocy. On the website and on the walls, there is a lot of attitude and a lot of pointless posturing about its take-it-or-leave-it, love-us-or-hate-us untamed approach."
"Offering big bites on a budget, Almost Famous is sure to leave your belly full without a hefty price tag. Chomp away on American-inspired classics, such as stacked burgers, fiery chilli dogs and BBQ smoked wings, with jam-jar cocktails to wash everything down."
"Having one of these giant OTT, oozy, piled-high monster burgers is something you should do in your lifetime even if it induces a heart attack. Almost Famous is in retro American diner style with. sweets inside the tables and fun wall art…."
"20/05/2021: Ordered 2 bacon with double cheese burger meals. Food was very dry and unappetising...very poor quality. Children's cheese burger was no better."
"Reopening from 2 July, daily, 10.00–16.00 (until 22.00 on Thursdays). Manchester Jewish Museum is thrilled to be reopening its doors following a major capital development redesign and extension. Two years in the making, the brand new museum now features a gallery, café, shop and learning studio and kitchen, as well as the stunning restoration of its 1874 Spanish and Portuguese synagogue."
"The Manchester Jewish Museum is the only Jewish museum you will find out of London. The Victorian building is Grade II listed and was built in 1874. It is, therefore, the oldest synagogue in Manchester."
"The People's History Museum is the national center for the collection, conservation, interpretation, and study of material relating to the history of working people in Britain. Located in a former pumping station, the museum showcases the history of British democracy and its impact on the population, as well as extensive collections of artifacts relating to trade unions and women's suffrage. Two other museums close by are the Manchester Jewish Museum, with its collection dealing with the city's Jewish community, and the Museum of Transport, with its many old buses and other vehicles belonging to the city transport services."
"Learn more about the history of democracy and how every person won the right to vote in one of the city’s most interesting museums. Keep your eyes peeled for revolving exhibitions that seek to inform in exciting ways, such as Never Going Underground, which demonstrates the history of LGBT+ rights."
"Manchester is a city of the people, and nowhere is that more clear than at the People’s History Museum. Located in a Grade II listed former pumping station, …"
"Much-loved across the UK, San Carlo is known for their delicious Italian food – each dish as beautiful as the next. The food is well presented and served in a bright, well-dressed setting with lots to choose from. There are five venues to choose from in Manchester alone, including Bottega (their cocktail and champagne bar), Cicchetti (which serves up small plates), Fumo (a stunning space to grab beautiful meals all day long), Gran Cafe (their cafe), and the main San Carlo (which has a huge menu!)."
"This was really well priced and had the best flavour and presentation. They even gave me more than one scoop. The restaurant uses traditional techniques to make their sorbet and it works for them."

Whether you are a veggie, vegan, non-gluten or meat eater, you would ceratinly be served the best menu that will fit your dietary specifications. They have a full menu that serves different starters, pizza, pasta, meat, salads, sides, non-gluten mains and desserts."

Contact will be heading out across the city this summer, delivering a series of outdoor performances before its building reopens to the public in September 2021."
