Bundobust offers the best Indian street food in the city and the menu, which combines delish nosh with some very drinkable craft ales, makes for a thoroughly indulgent night out. Entirely vegetarian or vegan, the combo platters are especially good. Be sure to try the rajma, one of the best curries in the UK.
Manchester is one of the UK’s most happening cities, and the Northern Quarter, the patch centred around Oldham Street known for its hub of creative spaces, independent shops, bougie cafés, cutting-edge bars and eclectic street art, is arguably its most happening neighbourhood.
This city is pretty great all-round, but you’d be hard pressed to find such a high concentration of vibrant, original places to eat, drink, shop and boogie, all set against the backdrop of Manchester’s characterful Victorian industrial-era architecture – it just adds to the vibe. No wonder then we named the Northern Quarter as one of the world’s coolest neighbourhoods in 2022. Here’s our up-to-date guide on the best things to do in this marvellous ‘hood.
