"It didn’t take long for word to spread about Rudy’s appetising Neapolitan pizzas. Debuting on Ancoats’ Cotton Street in 2015 and named after founders Jim Morgan and Kate Wilson’s little dog, the venue’s fast-and-easy style became a quick hit with locals, who’d queue for hours to get a pizza cooked inside their wood-burning stove. Shortly after they were featured in the prestigious Where To Eat Pizzas world guide, a second, larger space was unveiled in the centre of town on Peter Street."

"You must have been living under a rock if you haven't heard of Rudy's. The Neapolitan pizza masters only recently started doing takeaway (only collection at first) around lockdown, but we're so happy they're keeping it up - those queues and bookings out the wazoo at their Peter Street and Ancoats locations are impossible at times. They even started selling 'Bake at Home' kits, though you really need a proper oven to make it the way they do."

"Rudy’s is another great pit stop for vegans, with their specials board often providing a different dairy-free option every week. Rudy’s Neapolitan pizza dough is 100% vegan, and alongside their stunning marinara, any pizza on the menu can be asked for without cheese. No wonder they’re labelled the best pizzas in town."

"Manchester’s oldest independent Italian restaurant, Don Giovanni is a fave among the locals and it’s easy to see why. The menu has a real family-style vibe to it, with large bowls of pasta, generous portions of delicate seafood, and lovely bright meat dishes. Inside, you’ll find beautiful, contemporary decor – suited to dinner with the family after a bit of shopping, a laid-back date night or just a nice catch-up with friends over a bottle of wine."

"Award-winning restaurant Don Giovanni is the oldest independently-owned Italian in Manchester, established in 1984. We've proudly been serving fresh, high-quality authentic Italian meals to the people of Manchester for over thirty years. We are located on Oxford Street adjacent to St Peter's Square tram stop in the heart of Manchester city centre."

"PLY, 26 Lever Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 1DW - Visit now. The waft of pizza and the soft music are the final pieces in an atmospheric puzzle that makes PLY one of the most welcoming pizzerias in Manchester."

"Just really delicious and cheap food in Manchester city centre. Visit PLY at lunchtime when all pizzas are £6.50 – bargain. Where: 26 Lever Street."

"The sun has made a welcome return to Manchester, so make the most of the fine weather with our pick of the best places to eat and drink alfresco – because it will probably be throwing it down again next week. And don’t forget to slap on Factor 30. Factor 50 if you’re ginger."

"One hell of a pretty restaurant in Manchester, Gusto brings a sophisticated taste of Milan to Lloyd Street. Indulge in fresh plates of pasta while making eyes at one another over handpicked bottles of vino, all against a a backdrop of romantic 1920s-style decor."

"French cuisine is widely considered to be the best in the world. Chefs from every corner of the globe flood to Paris to learn all the famous tricks and techniques of Haute cuisine that only the French seem to have the natural finesse for. If fine French cuisine is your bag, then look no further than 63° Degrees in the Northern Quarter."

"Dishing out a slice of France right here in England, 63 Degrees is the perfect place for fine dining in Manchester. Set in an informal space, there's an innovative food offering, including pan-fried scallops, escargots and artichoke velouté with truffle oil."

"Spaceport is described on their website as ‘taking an inspirational journey through space, as you walk through several themed galleries’, ‘which all feature a large variety of interactive hands-on exhibits’. The galleries and the exhibits are OK, but there is a a twenty five minute film played out on the domed ceiling of the theatre which is for me where Spaceport comes into its own. The film, about whether there is life anywhere else in the universe, had my kids, me, and the rest of the theatre were gripped."

"For fans of outer space and space travel, Liverpool’s Spaceport makes a perfect day trip. The centre features a number of rooms centred around different themes, including the solar system and spacepods, each with their own hands-on activities. There is also an ‘interactive zone’ with activities and games based around gravity and light."

"Escape the city and journey into space on a visit to Liverpool’s Spaceport science center. Explore the universe via interactive displays, take a ride on Explorer 1, and marvel at the mysteries of the cosmos in the planetarium on a family-friendly day out."
