I'm launching a restaurant tour!

A first for Manchester, I think

It’s true! My brand new Manchester Restaurant Tours will begin in January.

I am not sure if I am out of my mind or if this is a great idea, but I have spent the past few months hammering it out, and I’m excited to tell you it’s happening. I’m launching a restaurant tour!

I will host three pilot restaurant tours of Manchester in winter 2026. One in January, one in February, and one in March. If these go well. I will continue them.

This carefully planned tour is a seasonal experience celebrating the best local produce at three of my personal favourite restaurants in Manchester city centre. For now, I am keeping these a secret, but I hope you will trust me!

Our group of six people maximum will meet at 5:30 pm and walk to the first restaurant, where you will enjoy champagne and oysters (or alternative snack), followed by a starter and a cocktail designed especially for my guests.

Then we’ll head to restaurant two for our second course (fish, or veggie alternative), followed by a warming, wintry main. Both courses paired with a glass of wine.

We’ll taxi to the final restaurant to finish our meal with both dessert and cheese (you shouldn’t have to choose one or the other) and another paired drink that goes well with both.

The whole experience takes around four hours and costs £195 per person.

All dishes, five matched drinks (AF if you prefer), and transport are included in your ticket price. You don’t have to worry about a thing, as I will take care of everything in advance. All you need to do is relax and enjoy the company of your small group.

We did a test run of the experience last month, and everybody loved it. It’s really, really cool. I’m so looking forward to hosting these beautiful, intimate, relaxed indie restaurant tours of Manchester.

See you there!
