The Northern Quarter is Manchester’s alternative and bohemian capital, full of independent businesses, boutiques and cafés. The Northern Quarter is a shopping haven, home to Affleck’s Palace which was once a department store and used today as a bazaar for alternative clothing and trinkets.
Check out the many boutiques and fashion designers hidden in the Quarter’s back streets, or pick up some art at one of the commercial art galleries dotted around the area.
After dark, the Northern Quarter boasts some of Manchester’s best nightlife scenes with jazz bars, music venues and secret speakeasies. For music lovers, visit the infamous Piccadilly Records for classic and contemporary vinyl.
