Discover Manchester on this intimate food and drink experience designed for guests who want more than a typical food tour.
Over 3 hours, we explore the areas where we love to spend the evenings. From the cobbled canalside streets to the vibrant energy of Chinatown and the grandeur of Albert Square. Uncovering the stories and culture that have shaped one of the world's most inventive cities.
Unlike many food tours that focus on street food and quick bites, this experience takes you inside four carefully selected restaurants and bars. At each stop, you'll enjoy a signature dish paired with an alcoholic drink, showcasing the creativity and diversity of Manchester's dining scene.
Small group sizes and expert local guides, you'll enjoy a more personal and authentic experience. We work closely with independent venues and talented chefs to introduce you to places most visitors never discover.
