Best Fast Food Restaurants in Northern Quarter

"For the best burger in Manchester (and maybe the entire Northwest), head to Almost Famous, a low-key restaurant with two locations in Manchester, as well as in Liverpool and Leeds. The burgers are not for the faint of heart, with ingredients pilled high, especially on options like the Crack Shack, which features a double cheeseburger, fried chicken, tater tots, and bacon combined on a bun. There is a vegan option and wings, fries, and a cocktail list that includes a selection called the Bitch Juice."

"Not because it's hugely over-hyped (which it is) and not because, at weekends, the queue for a table will sap your will to live. No, I almost didn't include it because AF sells itself in a very un-Manchester tone of, not hipster cool exactly, more lippy idiocy. On the website and on the walls, there is a lot of attitude and a lot of pointless posturing about its take-it-or-leave-it, love-us-or-hate-us untamed approach."

"Offering big bites on a budget, Almost Famous is sure to leave your belly full without a hefty price tag. Chomp away on American-inspired classics, such as stacked burgers, fiery chilli dogs and BBQ smoked wings, with jam-jar cocktails to wash everything down."

"1857 museum with 200,000 artifacts displayed in original Victorian glass cabinets, plus fine art. Address : Bold St, Warrington WA1 1DR, United Kingdom"

"CFCCA is the UK leader in Chinese visual culture, with a reputation for debut solo exhibitions and a roster of internationally-renowned artists; impressive considering that, three decades ago, it was just a series of events in Manchester’s Chinatown. As Manchester’s Chinese population is second only to London’s, the centre’s heritage is particularly important; now represented in a new archive and library. Best feature: A vibrant events schedule, spanning film screenings to workshops and even Mandarin lessons"

"Centre For Chinese Contemporary Art is a unique art gallery with a year-round programme of socially engaged exhibitions, events, and artist residencies. They have over 30 years experience of working with emerging and established artists to provide a space for conversation, debate, and cross-cultural exchange. They are the go-to place to discover new artists and explore relevant global issues from different international perspectives."

"Manchester's Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art will reopen both of its galleries on Wednesday May 19. Exhibitions Multiplicities in Flux and Autopsy of a Home, which originally opened in October, will be back until June 13. Booking is advised at cfcca.org.uk but walk-ups are welcome."

Established in 2010 by Alex Reuben, the gallery is known for offering a warm and friendly welcome to art enthusiasts, collectors, and new visitors and explorers to the city.

"The majority of dishes on the menu at this brilliant vegetarian Indian restaurant in Fallowfield are vegan or can be made vegan on request. This includes a selection of Indian street food dishes like Bhel, Pani Puri and Samosa Chaat, starters like a vegan omelette and veggie seekh kebabs. There’s also curries like Tofu Makhani and Mushroom Korma, and lots more."

"Sanskruti Restaurantserves the best tasting vegan-vegetarian Indian dishes. Prepared using the best aromatic herbs and spices, they would certainly tempt not only your taste but also your olfactory senses. Offering the best quality of food, you can try different variants that would certainly provide a palate inducing experience that you will never forget."
