Best Nightlife in Heaton Norris

"One for the vegans here, Bundobust is the perfect example of proving that you don't need meat to pack a punch. With a proper fast-food feel, despite being able to eat in at their Piccadilly location, each time those lovely little pots are plonked in front of you is just as exciting at the last. The tarka dhal is to die for, their food has a real grab-and-go feel to it and it's very reasonably priced considering the amount of flavour you get out of each dish."

"This laid-back Piccadilly street food favourite has canteen and booth-style seating, and bespoke artwork nodding to Manchester’s industrial heritage. The informal menu is entirely vegetarian: think spiced okra fries, or bundo chaat, a delightful mixture of crunchy samosa pastry, chickpeas, tamarind chutney and turmeric noodles. An excellent beer list showcases local breweries."

"With acclaim from national reviewers, Bundobust's street food and craft beer philosophy may seem simple, but it's hella tasty. The Manchester restaurant is a must for sharing vegan food; though don't end up squabbling over the bhel puri - a mix of pastry, peas and tamarind chutney."

"A very special spot standing proud in the centre of Spinningfields, The Ivy consists of three charming floors – one of which is completely decked out in the most spectacular, Far Eastern-inspired decor. And the nods don’t end there. The menu is completely inspired by Asia, too, taking inspiration from all corners of the continent when curating their menu."

"The Ivy Spinningfields in Manchester is a multi-faceted venue, offering several floors of beautiful settings and tasty food and drinks. Apart from ground floor Ivy Brasserie and second floor Ivy Asia, the true gem is found at the very top, with the Ivy Roof Garden. Very colorful and very lush, the spacious rooftop really deserves its 'garden' epithet."

"Health food eatery and juicery, The Garden in Hale has a range of vegetarian and vegan all day brunch dishes like buckwheat pancakes and chia flax porridge, as well as sandwiches, salads and veg-packed bowls. Order via Uber Eats and Deliveroo."

"Albert’s Schloss, 27 Peter Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M2 5QR - Visit now. A self-confessed ‘bohemian pleasure palace’ taking over the ground floor of established music venue the Albert Hall. The ornate building is a former Wesleyan Chapel built over a century ago."

"A post shared by Albert’s Schloss (@albertsschloss) on Feb 22, 2020 at 12:00am PST. For crêpe lovers, Albert’s Schloss has you sorted this Tuesday. Available for one day only, tuck into their crêpes filled with house-made chocolate praline sauce and preserved blood orange slices, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream."

"Manchester's first Bavarian bier palace, cook haus and bakery is a cavernous space which sees Pilsner Urquell served straight from huge shiny tanks, while meat comes in the form of steak, schnitzel, curry or bratwurst."

"Oxford Road’s hotel-turned-bar and restaurant The Refuge might not be top of your list when looking for no-money fun in Manchester, but head to its secluded and spacious back room and you’ll find pool tables and table football – both of which can be enjoyed for free. All you need to provide is a contender and a will to win."

"The Refuge is one of the most beautiful restaurants in the entire Manchester. The entrance is stunning and the overall environment is great. I also liked the menu – it seemed pretty unique with a lot of small plates from all around the world."

"Winning small plate fusion in an iconic and glamorous setting. Housed in Manchester’s iconic The Refuge Assurance Company dating back to 1858, this DJ-run restaurant and bar is large and sassy."

"One of Manchester's largest and most popular cluster of casual restaurants can be found at the Corn Exchange, close to the Manchester Arena, the Arndale and Printworks. With outside seating outside most of its bars and restaurants, it's long been a busy corner of the city centre whenever the sun shines. Here you'll find Indian restaurant Delhi House Cafe, Banyan, Cosy Club, Gino D'Acampo's casual Italian restaurant, local favourite Salvi's, Vapiano, and Zizzi."

"The following eateries are reopening for walk-ins in the Corn Exchange, and you can find menus, opening times and more information for each place on the website here:"

"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."

"Buxton Brewery’s beginnings can be traced back to 2009 where in a small, cold, garage, a micro-brew was created – nine years on, they’ve gone from strength to strength, and now make upwards of 30 distinct brews!. A few highlights from their core range include Buxton Spa, Extra Stout and Axe Edge."

"This city centre gallery boasts some truly world-class work, most notably its outstanding collection of pre-Raphaelite paintings. As well as historic fine art and international contemporary work, the Mosley Street building is also home to a treasure trove of craft and design, from ceramics and silver to glass and furniture. It also has an extensive costume collection, spanning six centuries of fashion, housed in a separate Gallery of Costume in Platt Fields Park, Rusholme."

"Located on Mosley Street, Manchester Art Gallery is a free entry gallery that has been at the centre of life in Manchester for nearly 200 years. The gallery strives for social change through its collections, displays and public programmes. Pay a visit to see exhibitions including Grayson’s Art Club and What is Manchester Art Gallery."

"If you’re visiting the main gallery, you won’t need to book a ticket—you can just walk in. There will be lots to see including a new display, What is Manchester Art Gallery?. , which introduces the gallery, its origins, how the collection was formed and how it relates to Manchester and its people."

"The municipal museum was founded in 1848 and moved into its purpose-built Neoclassical home in 1857. This is one of the UK’s oldest town museums and the building has kept its original character. As with the best municipal museums, the collection is a big jumble of local industrial artefacts, Egyptology, Roman archaeology, coins, ethnographic displays, items from the Civil War and zoological and botanical specimens."

Warrington Museum & Art Gallery is Warrington’s premier art gallery and houses over 200,00 exhibits and objects, covering everything from local history to numismatics, from archaeology to ethnology. Located right in the centre of town, the Warrington Museum & Art Gallery is very easy to find and well worth a visit."

"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."

"The Royal Exchange Theatre is located just off St Ann’s Square in the city centre and has seen performances from some of the UK’s leading actors including Maxine Peake and Julie Hesmondhalgh. The Module theatre is a seven-sided, glass-walled capsule that is suspended in the centre of the Great Hall and means that all seats are less than nine metres from the stage."
