Food Scene

The best vegetarian restaurant in Manchester! And one of the best restaurants full stop - Greens is right at the end of the road and always delicious. Open most evenings from 5:30pm, it sometimes gets busy so worth booking on a weekend. It's really reasonably priced for such brilliant food (and a celebrity chef - Simon Rimmer). I'd definitely recommend the gnocci.

Drinks & Nightlife

A great little independent local bar. Mary and Archie has a cool vibe, friendly staff, great food (really spicy sweet potato wedges) and best of all, a rockabilly night every other Sunday.

Great pub quiz at Saison on Wednesday nights, and it's less than 5 minutes walk or stumble back home. You can also get a slice of pizza for £2!

Parks & Nature

With a cafe, lovely sunken botanical garden and then lots of trails over the nearby parkland, Fletcher Moss is a lovely place to soak up the Manchester sunshine, or can be combined with the trail along the river to make a great 5-7km run door to door from the flat.

Amazing vegan co-operative superstore...yes really. Brilliant for locally sourced fruit and veg and to bulk buy any grains/cereals/nuts. And the salad/deli bar is amazing.

Arts & Culture

The best theatre in the North West! You can pop in anytime to have a look at the stunning building and probably catch a glimpse of Maxine Peake... There's a great pub/restaurant on site too - The Rivals.
