Back to school it is then. With summer now sadly in the rear-view mirror, Manchester’s food and drink scene is kicking back into gear with a plethora of new and exciting openings.

Below, you’ll find some street food favourites, luxe Latin American eateries and exclusive drinking dens - all working to make the transition into autumn that little bit easier.
