Levenshulme’s food scene is cracking. It’s got everything, from beloved kebab shops to high-end natural wine bars, neighbourhood bistros and dumplings for miles.
Its market is the envy of South Manchester, having flipped the script from ‘fake Adidas tracksuits and knock-off trainers to hand-knitted jumpers and home-baked vegan buns sold at an independent market‘, according to the Sunday Times, which has named it one of the best places to live in the UK.
