3.5 hours

  • Discover secret independent Ancoats food and drink spots
  • Explore Manchester’s fascinating first industrial suburb
  • Hear tales of gangs, mills and ice cream empires
  • Enjoy an intimate tour with just eight guests

Eat your way through Manchester on a guided food and drink tour that brings together brilliant local flavours, fascinating stories and some of the city’s best independent spots.

Over approximately 3.5 hours, you’ll explore central Manchester on foot, stopping at a selection of carefully chosen local favourites for multiple food and drink tastings. There’s plenty to try along the way, with the tastings adding up to the equivalent of a full meal, so make sure you arrive hungry.

But this Manchester food tour isn’t just about what’s on the plate. Food has played a surprisingly important part in shaping the city, and your guide will uncover the people, communities and stories behind it.

Discover Manchester’s food and drink heritage, from the ice cream vendors of Ancoats’ historic Little Italy and the everyday diet of Victorian mill workers to the city’s connections with the birth of vegetarianism. Along the way, you’ll also delve into a little food science and discover how Manchester’s past continues to influence its thriving food scene today.

With every stop kept secret until the day, part of the fun is not knowing exactly what’s coming next. You’ll visit some favourite local haunts, discover new flavours and see a different side of Manchester through the food and drink that helped make it what it is today.

Come hungry. You’ll be feeding your curiosity as well as your appetite.
