5.00This food tour exceeded all expectations. We learned so much about Manchester’s heritage while tasting a superb range of dishes and drinks. The guide’s passion for food and local history really shone through and made the experience engaging and fun. Each stop provided something different and exciting, and the portions were generous enough that we left feeling completely satisfied. A true highlight of our trip and a great way to explore the city through its food and drink scene.

5.00What a brilliant food tour! This experience provided far more than just great eats — it gave us a deeper appreciation for Manchester’s character and community. The guide did an excellent job balancing history with tasting stops, and the group atmosphere was warm and engaging throughout. Every dish was a delight and the accompanying drinks added a lovely touch. My wife's and my personal favourite dish was definitely the curry! I would not have ever found the spot and OMG it was amazing! We came away with new favourite spots in the city and excellent recommendations for further venues to eat at in Manchester.
Outstanding experience!!!!!

5.00Absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish! The tour seamlessly combined Manchester’s rich culinary scene with insight into the local culture and history. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and welcoming, introducing us to hidden gems in the Northern Quarter and Gay Village that we never would have found on our own. The food and drinks at each stop were plentiful, diverse, and delicious — from classic local bites to innovative takes on Mancunian favorites. This was one of the most memorable food tours we’ve taken in the UK and we highly recommend it to both visitors and locals alike. Great value and fantastic hospitality throughout.
Great experience!
