You could have just avoided the packed full chain bars.
There's plenty of hidden gems in Manchester.

i was so gutted when the wilmslow one closed. not even a pretence at it being healthy. caramel and chocolate frozen yoghurt smothered in chocolate and sweets and hot fudge sauce ftw.

when i worked in didsbury, fallowfield was a shithole and didsbury was too expensive for students
now fallowfield seems to be full of blocks of designer 2 bed, 2 bath flats and didsbury is full of rich students

I like it in Fallowfield. I like my leafy suburbs.
I can deal with the students now too. it makes it all the more fun when they fuck off home for christmas.

manchester is a cracking night out if you venture away from deansgate and the shite locks. luckily we have those to keep the tourists away from the good stuff. local bars for local people.

Lies. It's shit and full of orange cunts.
Thankfully the hotel bar was a far more genteel prospect.
