"A photo posted by Jemma Birks (@jemmabirks) on Jan 21, 2017 at 8:52am PST. Heavily influenced by the kind of cool American eateries you’d find in Brooklyn, Lucky Fox specialises in fried chicken, waffles and deliciously messy sandwiches. Although it won’t be low calorie, brunch here is always a foodie adventure – perfect for anyone growing tired of the traditional British take on brunch."
"Waffles and pancakes are the way to go at Lucky Fox if you fancy something sweet, although they offer one of the best veggie dishes in the city in the form of the Hippie Banjo: thick-sliced sourdough toast, poached egg, avocado, watercress, and tomato."
"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."
"Why: As far as burger joints go, you’ll struggle to find a city that doesn’t have a least a dozen to choose from. Almost Famous has all the qualities you’d expect from a casual burger restaurant."
"Head to My House Diner if you like your takeaway to be belly bursting. The American-inspired takeaway is famed for its burgers – you can try The Elvis Presley, which comes piled high with smoked cheese, bacon and Tennessee BBQ sauce. Or just work your way through a heaving menu of chicken, calzones, wings and kebabs, washed down with one of their indulgent milkshakes."
"Thankfully, Cake Box now delivers straight to your doorstep!. All their products are free from meat and eggs. They do, however, use cream in most of their items."
"About: Cute, kitsch and cosy - Hey Little Cupcake is a super-sweet cupcakery and tea room serving Manchester's finest selection of freshly baked Cupcakes, Cakepops and Brownies. Treats can either be ordered to take-away or enjoyed in the cafe's cosy in or outdoor seating areas. The mini bite-sized cupcakes are perfect for a spontaneous treat."
"This week we launch the Easter Collection… here’s a sneak peak of what’s to come. #HeyLittleCupcake#Easter#Cupcakepic.twitter.com/YS1ZL46gEi. — Hey Little Cupcake!"
"As the name suggests, their small cupcakes are really delicious. Like New York’s famous cupcakes. They create a work of art."
"Contact Theatre will be heading out across Manchester this summer for a series of outdoor performances. Contact is an Oxford Road theatre and performing arts venue creating and producing its own shows, as well as hosting tours from the world’s best theatre companies. 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."
"To the south of the city centre is another legendary club, being The Leadmill Sheffield. A favourite place to party for locals and students alike since opening in 1980, this historic venue has hosted some of the biggest bands in history, most notably The Killers, Snow Patrol, The Libertines, Coldplay and even local band Arctic Monkeys before their huge rise to fame!. Nowadays, it still hosts some fantastic bands and live music events."
"Venue is a great night out, 3 rooms; Monday night SHAG is worth a night, as is Cheek/Teenage Kicks on a Wednesday, Thursday night is Naughty, Friday night Love Royale Love is classy. Then there is The Sonic Boom on Saturday. Genuinely can't say much of a bad word against it."
"One of the first places to open up in the now uber-trendy Northern Quarter the Frog and Buckets plays host to Manchester's longest-running comedy club. Not only some fantastic homegrown talent, but comedy greats also pass through from all over the world. There are two opportunities every week to enjoy a giggle, their 'Barrel of Laughs' night and also their open mic night 'Beat the Frog'."
"Restoring the former Smithfield Market and creating a busy, atmospheric dining destination for Mancs to enjoy, Mackie Mayor has long been a favourite for locals – with bars, coffee shops and restaurants to enjoy inside. Situated in the Northern Quarter, guests can enjoy tacos, pizzas, wines, fried chicken, succulent beef and so much more, with tons of vendors to try during your visit. Mackie Mayor, 1 Eagle St, M4 5BU."
"Opened in 1858, this vintage food hall looks as good as its artisanal grub tastes. Housed in the shell of the historical Smithfield Market, the brick-walled space is Instagram goals with its communal tables, industrial design, glass ceiling and elegant black pillars. Offering up anything from steaks, sandwiches and pizza to local favourites, Fin Fish Bar and Baohouse, Mackie Mayor is the ultimate foodie paradise."
"Once known as Eat New York in the Northern Quarter, Triple Bagels opened up in Prestwich just a matter of months ago – bringing salt beef, burgers and bagels to North Manchester. The American-inspired menu is the perfect lunch option, with Deliveroo available for those nearby. Triple Bagels, 24 Bury New Rd, Prestwich, M25 0LD."
