I've been working in NQ for nearly two months now and lunch has always been harder than you might…read morethink. To start with I was quite extravagant, spending a tenner on burgers, artisan pies and the like - after spending my wages I started to bring in my own rabbit food salad *sad face.... But that was until I tried Rustica! I'd ways walked past and thought hmmm, not for me - what a fool I was. First of all Theres a great atmosphere in the shop; Motown playing, the girls chatty and friendly and a nice selection of pasta and hot/cold sandwiches. I plumped for the chicken club, it was warm, tasty and filling - everything you want from lunch, and only £3.35 - stuff your tesco meal deals! Don't let the functional layout stop you trying the best place for a cheap, quality bite to eat in the NQ!

Rustica. My god. Never have I been so honoured by such a small sandwich maker. I was first…read moreintroduced to rustica by a friend, now come every lunchtime if I'm within the 3 mile radius of rustica I endeavour to go in. A very small little kitchen with a counter it is on unlucky times brim to overflowing with folk desperate to eat one of them. By them of course I mean the sandwiches. It doesn't matter what you have its all made with look and affection. But if you really want something that fell from heaven there is one award winning bad boy the milano. On a granary bap it is filled with...... prepare yourself chicken, bacon, pesto, parmesan, mayonnaise and salad (this you can pick from the buckets of iceberg and sweetcorn bits etc). This is the single greatest sandwich I've ever eaten. The only time I don't have one is when the hour dictates its breakfast then I have a breakfast bin lid (a huge bap stuffed full of a big breakfast).

He gave us some recommendations which we took and really enjoyed. We also chatted for a bit about why we're there and it really made the experience even better. Our actual waitress though, was really slow to check on us and see if we needed anything. Probably just busy. Anyway, food was delicious! Definitely needed more salt though.

Great range of options and bargain prices…read more This is a basic sandwich shop just next to my work. I tried it for the first time today and was very happy. Quick service on my jacket potato with cheese and beans. They offered a plastic knife and fork in case you are stuck for cutlery. The jacket potato was nothing out of the ordinary but for a cheap, fast lunch this is just what I need. There is also a great range of breakfast and other lunch options at low prices.

This is a small sandwich shop on Swan Street, just on the edge of the Northern Quarter. They have a…read moregreat menu that's got loads of options all based around sandwiches, paninis, omelettes and jacket potatoes. You'll be looking at around £2 for a sandwich or potato with filling. Cygnet Sandwich Bar's ingredients are always fresh and there's a great range of salads to add to your saindwich. It's all made to order. There's a few nice little extras available too, like hard boiled eggs. Yum! If it's an all day breakfast you want, they do one here for a fairly standard £4. It took me quite a while to get served because the guy behind the counter was busy chatting to a friend. I really dislike it when people choose to carry on whatever conversation they're having rather than serving a customer. Dull.

I really like this sandwich bar. Its so much better than Subway! I hate the way Subway has been…read moreslowly proliferating across Manchester, pumping out the smell of tasty but incredibly unhealthy sandwiches into the streets of the city. This sandwich bar, like a few other pioneering sandwicheries in Manchester, serves good, large sandwiches with fresh healthy ingredients for a couple of quit. This one is not quite as good as the Fruit & Nut sandwich bar in the university precinct on Oxford Road but its still pretty good, and is the best in the area.

I was looking for an American style brunch place (wanted fried chicken and waffles) and came across…read moreHome Sweet (although they didn't have C&W). I got their chicken tenders dish that came with fries, gravy, and slaw. It also came with a barbecue (I think it was barbecue) sauce. I was genuinely surprised as most brunch places I've been to never really serve any of their meals with sides (it's usually extra) so to have slaw and fries with this meal reminded me of how the food is back in America. The service was quick and after ordering, my food came soon after. I enjoyed the gravy more than the barbecue sauce. It had a bit of a sweet taste to it which works well with the chicken (I did find it a bit salty). The portion size was good for the price. I'm not too much of a fan of sweet things but I saw that they had pancakes and would try that next time I check this place out!

This one is too too busy and hence if you're the one who's lunch break is probably a 20-30 mins thing, then you might end up spending about 15-20 min queueing up! I know it's not great, but well Greggs is Greggs! Other than that if you come here when the crowd is disappearing at around 4pm and render yourself a smart person, think twice because by then all the food would have disappeared.

Cool decor and cool music- ranging from New Order to alternative . Menu was legit British pub bar food - pies, burgers, fish and chips etc. But lemme tell ya their haddock fish and chips was one of de best I've ever had to far. A large more than generous portion battered and fried perfectly. Imma steak fry cut girl and their chips were delicious ! - thick cut, the way I like them and fried with a delicate crispy outside. We did have to ask for some ketchup. I thoroughly enjoyed the side of mushy peas- seasoned lightly, partially mush with partial full size peas. The steak and ale pie was delicious. Drizzled the yummy gravy all over. Order food at bar, they'll bring food to your table when ready. Great food, reasonable pricing for generous portions! Cool vibes

Though our stay at Abel Heywood was short, it was definitely worth it…read more It was a bit difficult to find as it's tucked within a few small streets, but the boutique hotel was memorable. It was conveniently located within walking distance of central Manchester with a variety of shops and pubs. Our room was very clean, and it seemed as though everything was fairly new and well kept. I liked the unique touches the hotel had as well, such as a vinyl record player, records, and a few books placed here and there to enjoy. It was also very quiet in our room, which, at the time of booking, I was skeptical of considering it was above the pub. The breakfast that I had at the pub was also very good and the service was very hospitable, both from the pub and hotel hosts. The only criticism I have is that the water in the shower kept going from warm to cold, which during the winter is unpleasant. Also, the internet was fairly slow, more so during the evening hours, which I attribute to the higher volume of people possibly using the WiFi. However, overall, the Abel Heywood is a place I would definitely recommend to others as well as visit again.
