3-uur durende Manchester Food Tour met lunch
Beschrijving
Tijdens deze food tour bezoeken we niet één maar twee van Manchesters meest bruisende gebieden. U hoort de fascinerende geschiedenis van Manchester en zijn mensen. Van de gouden eeuw van de industriële revolutie tot de ultra coole en trendy stad van vandaag. Tijdens de tour bezoeken we enkele van de beroemdste eetgelegenheden van de stad en ook enkele van onze geheime plekjes. Elke plek die we bezoeken heeft een speciaal gerecht dat een verhaal vertelt over Manchester. We genieten zelfs van een paar glazen wijn bij één stop en een unieke Manchester tippel langs de route. Alles inbegrepen, geen verborgen extra's. Je maakt kennis met enkele van onze chefs, bakkers en producenten. Onze missie is om onze foodhelden te laten zien en je kennis te laten maken met een kant van Manchester die je misschien nog nooit eerder hebt gezien of gehoord. Voor iedereen die deze tour doet doneren we een maaltijd aan Eat Well Manchester. Een goed doel dat mensen helpt die worstelen met voedselarmoede in onze stad.

We went on a tour through Ancoats with our guide Steve. We visited several local foodshops. We tasted bread from a middle eastern bakery, and soup from a Jamaican family owned shop and a fine selection of meats and cheeses from a local butcher/wine shop. Wandering further through the neighborhoods Steve painted a colorfull picture of Manchester going from the beginning of the industrial revolution to his youth around the 70's to the present day using the buildings and surrounding as the props for his stories about the many firsts Machester bestowed upon the world. Steve has his facts straight, because when checking his more 'unbelievable' claims they checked out as true (splitting of the atom, cancer treatment, Man city being the best team that ever existed, slavery abolishment long before the US did, all true). In Ancoats we also passed several places were series and movies were filmed. And around the end of the tour we ate at 'This and That', an Indian restaurant in an alley where you, as a less adventurous tourist would have walked passed looking for a place with a nicer terras. And this is where food tours show their worth. Passing this restaurant up would have left you with missing up one of the best Indian food experiences. Don't take my word for it nor Steve's (although i could not catch that man in a lie) but take it from an Indian member in our group, who was very complementary about the food stating it was as good as at home. Last stop was Abel Haywood hotel/bar/ restaurant where we learned about Abel Haywood and his stauts of the queen and ended up mesmerizing about all the music that came from Machester while eating sticky toffee pudding. All in all a very nice walk with a wealth of things you didn't know about Manchester.
Great to read all of this. The whole idea that we're trying to create is that you're walking around Manchester with a local mate. We want you to feel a part of our city and not just a tourist going through the motions. I loved reading this as it seems we're hitting those spots. I need to pull you up on the Manchester City being the best team in the world thing though, but I'll let that go as you were so kind. Safe travels and please come and see us again when you're next in town.
A fun way to explore Manchester. Nic was a fabulous tour guide and helped make our trip memorable. We enjoyed discovering some lovely little independent food places & hearing some history too. My favourite stop on the tour was The Butcher’s Quarter.
Thanks Helen. They're great guys in the Butchers shop, we've worked with them since we started years ago. Great meats and cheeses and a nice glass of wine. What more can you want. Great to hear you enjoyed the tour and all of our independent vendors. Thanks a lot for coming along.
James our guide and the owner was very knowledgeable about Manchester history and the food scene. All the food choices were excellent. Nice also to support local small business owners! Would recommend to anyone unfamiliar with the area. I leaned a lot!
Thanks guys. Safe trip back to California.
Steven was an excellent host, meeting place was easy to find. We were shown the northern quarter and some of the Manchester history. We started with local bakery, moved to an artisan deli, a taste of Salford rum and a bit of "this and that" ( I will let you discover this Manchester gem) and finally pudding. All the time we found new facts about the city you just don't know about. Well done Steve, great way to spend a few hours.
Thanks great to hear you enjoyed the tour and all of our fantastic vendors along the way. We've got a great city here and we love showing it off to our guests.
We had the best tour with Steve. He was very knowledgeable about Manchester's history. The food was amazing, great portion sizes, we were so full by the end of the tour. The weather wasn't the best and it rained heavily on and off all day but Steve was so proactive and changed the route so we could warm up inside. We would recommend this tour as Steve was so personable and the food was amazing!
Thank you very much for the kind words. We're blessed with "wonderful" weather here in Manchester so we always try and make sure everyone's comfortable during the tour. It's fantastic to hear that you guys enjoyed the tour so much. Thanks you very much for choosing us to show you around the city we absolutely adore.
This was a very genuine and great way of experiencing Manchester. Our guide, Steve, was very enthusiastic and since it was only me, my friend and Steve, we could ask plenty of questions and learn a lot of the history of the city. Very very nice to walk for a bit, hear about different historic periods of the city and to drink/eat something before continuing. I would strongly recommend the tour for people visiting Manchester.
Thanks very much. Steve is incredibly proud of Manchester and rightly so. Thanks for choosing us to show you around. We donate a free meal to Eat well Manchester for every guest who joins us so thanks.
