"Ezra & Gil have planted themselves firmly on the booming NQ independent coffee shop roster. Translating into ‘helper’ (Ezra) and ‘happiness’ (Gil), they have an immense, light-hearted place that profits from so much space that they’ve even been able to plonk a small shop inside – ideal for picking up a few provisions. Their urban coffee is one to rival any nearby coffee shop, and their popularity is proven by the sheer amount of folk in the café at any one time."

You can find more information via the Ezra & Gil website here."

"Located in the Northern quarter, Manchester’s coffee strong hold is Idle Hands. Established in 2014 and initially opening up shop around Piccadilly Station they evolved into one of the best speciality coffee shops in Manchester. Their love for actually talking about coffee and exploring various concepts from the crop itself all the way through to the end cup means it is a great place to further your coffee education."

Idle Hands are also loopy about coffee, offering a selection of rare filters from guest roasters.

Actually, most of the photo locations in Manchester are located very close to each other, so at no point, you have to walk for more than 20-25 minutes. However, there are free buses in Manchester, so if it rains, you can definitely hop on one and head to Manchester Cathedral."

The pubs are historic landmarks beloved of tourists to the city and are particularly busy on match days."
