"Rudy’s is an institution here in Manchester, with two regularly busy sites throwing authentic Neapolitan pizza like there’s no tomorrow. While they predominantly only serve pizza, the food is so good, there really isn’t much need for anything else. In fact, they’ve mastered the art so well, they’ve been named one of the top ten pizzerias in the whole world."
"Rudy’s is another great pit stop for vegans, with their specials board often providing a different dairy-free option every week. Rudy’s Neapolitan pizza dough is 100% vegan, and alongside their stunning marinara, any pizza on the menu can be asked for without cheese. No wonder they’re labelled the best pizzas in town."

"Don Giovanni, Peter House, 1-2 Oxford St, Manchester, M1 5AN - Visit now. Don Giovanni’s has been one of the city’s most well-known Italian restaurants for over thirty years, providing gimmick-free meals with a focus on traditional Mediterranean ingredients. Keep an eye out for the special events featuring guest chefs such as Jean-Christophe Novelli."
"It can be hard to find a restaurant for a sophisticated meal that has more than just salad as a vegan option, but Don Giovanni have changed the game. Releasing a dedicated vegan menu earlier this year, the chefs are no strangers to plant-based meals. Tuck into a roasted aubergine lasagne or pizza vegano, complete with vegan mozzarella."
"With more than 30 years in the business, Don Giovannis knows a thing or two about Italian dining in Manchester. As the longest-running independent Italian, the space has been keeping the city happy for decades thanks to tasty mix of steaks, fish and risotto dishes."
"One of Manchester’s most beloved Neapolitan pizzerias, Caiooo, has made the decision to continue with its popular takeaway service and only reopen for walk-ins as and when the weather allows. You can find menus, opening times and more information on Instagram here."
"Salvi's is an Italian favourite in Manchester where traditional pasta plates and dishes bring the comfort of antipasti and aperitivo to the Corn Exchange. When you're not dining?. Get authenthic deli bits from their in-restaureabnt shop."
"Town House Coffee and Brew Bar provides a fresh and modern surrounding down Preston's Friargate. The café serve up some seriously tasty dishes for breakfast and lunch, many with vegan alternatives which don't skimp on the flavour. All this can be washed down with vegan teas, coffees, and smoothies."
"The double award winning Town House Coffee & Brew Bar, serving breakfast, brunch, coffee and cakes is open 10am to 4pm Wednesday to Sunday. The Friargate shop also has plenty of outdoor seating."
"There is something about Hawksmoor that taps into a primal part of your being that is so unbelievably satisfying, and that thing is unadulterated beef. The Manchester Hawksmoor is the first of its kind outside of London and is housed in a late-Victorian courthouse which is full of traditional charm. Do not let the stunning interior distract you from the fantastic food, however."
"Hawksmoor opened in early 2015, but the steakhouse has style and character that suggests it’s been there for years. The interior is a chorus of black leather, deep mahogany and royal green – a sumptuous combo that encourages couples to settle in for the night and order another bottle of wine. The menu, like the décor, is classic and refined."
"The People’s History Museum follows the ideas that prompted the fight for democracy in the UK across the ages. It aims to showcase the power of the people as well as encourage the fight for worthy ideas. A great museum for anyone wanting to learn more about the political arena and activism history in the UK."
"Dubbed the national museum of democracy, People’s History Museum holds the largest collection of political material in Britain. The museum tells the stories of workers, voters, citizens and revolutionaries who rallied for rights and equality and made society what it is today."
"1 km from city center 3 out of 12 places to visit in Manchester. This amazing museum houses the story of Britain's 200 year March to democracy and expresses all the pain and pathos perfectly. It is housed in a refurnished Edwardian Pumping Station."
"Opposite the Lowry on the south side of the Manchester Ship Canal in Trafford Park is one of five branches for the Imperial War Museum, opened in 2002. This remarkable building, with three interlocking metallic shards (invoking air, earth and water), was designed by Daniel Libeskind and intended to induce a feeling of disorientation apt for war. The entrance is in the 55-metre-high “air shard”, while the permanent exhibition is on the first floor in the “earth shard”."
"Imperial War Museum North (IWM North), Imperial War Museum North, The Quays, Trafford Wharf Road, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M17 1TZ - Visit now. IWM North was designed by Daniel Libeskind, whose beautiful waterfront building was based on a globe shattered by war and houses a permanent collection, special exhibitions and events that consider the many ways conflict shapes society."
"This is another opening that will be the talk of the town when it reopens, as the Manchester Jewish Museum unveils its £6m transformation to the public for the first time. You'll have to be patient though - the Chetham Hill venue won't open until July 2, when it kicks things off with a MIF co-commissioned installation. General admission tickets will be available soon at manchesterjewishmuseum.com."
"You'll find Manchester Jewish Museum in a former Spanish and Portuguese synagogue. The museum tells the stories, history and heritage of Jewish people of the area, via a collection of items. Located in the city centre, Manchester Jewish Museum is a…"
