Luxury Shopping

Manchester, UK, is a vibrant shopping destination that blends high-end fashion, independent boutiques, and eclectic markets. At the heart of the city is the Arndale Centre, one of the largest inner-city shopping malls in the UK, housing a wide range of popular high street brands. Just a short walk away, luxury shoppers can explore King Street and Spinningfields, where designer labels and premium stores offer a more upscale retail experience. The iconic Selfridges and Harvey Nichols department stores also add to the city's reputation for high fashion. The Trafford centre is also only a short tram ride away with many top name brands and restaurants.

Beyond the big names, Manchester thrives on its independent spirit. The Northern Quarter is a haven for vintage lovers, with quirky shops, record stores, and locally-owned boutiques that celebrate individuality and creativity. Afflecks, a legendary indoor market, is a must-visit for alternative fashion, handmade jewellery, and art. For those seeking a more local flavour, the city’s various markets — including the Manchester Craft and Design Centre — offer unique, artisan-made goods. Whether you're after the latest trends or hidden gems, Manchester’s shopping scene has something to suit every style and budget.

Manchester’s dining scene is a rich mix of cutting‑edge fine dining, global flavours, and relaxed neighbourhood eateries, all woven into the city’s vibrant cultural fabric. From buzzing food halls and up‑and‑coming restaurants in Ancoats and the Northern Quarter, through to sophisticated bars and bistros in Spinningfields, there’s something for everyone — whether you want casual small plates, several‑course tasting menus, or something in between. The influence of world cuisines is strong: you’ll find excellent modern Indian, East Asian, Mediterranean, and innovative British cooking across the city.

On the Michelin front, Manchester has been making headline progress in recent years. Mana, located in Ancoats, has been Manchester’s flagship Michelin‑starred restaurant since first winning its star in 2019, thanks to its creative, seasonal tasting menu and beautifully designed kitchen‑to‑table experience. More recently, Skof, under chef Tom Barnes, opened in 2024 and was awarded its first Michelin star in the 2025 guide, making it only the second restaurant in Manchester to have that honour. Beyond that, a number of restaurants in Greater Manchester are featured in the Michelin Guide (but without stars), and several hold Bib Gourmand status for offering excellent value ‒ meaning you can find superb food without needing to break the bank.
