Reviews of Manchester Craft and Design Centre
"Situated in the old fish market and housing a number of small craft, jewelry, pottery and textile artists/ makers it's a lovely place to spend an hour or two. You could find a lovely gift for someone, have a delicious lunch and really enjoy your time in this interesting old building"
"Amazing place and very very nicely reused old building. I visit the place just for 5 minutes but it was so nice, that I stayed 45 minutes. Inside you will have different shops of crafts and arts. And all item are hand made. And you can see the artist working inside their shops and making new piece of art or craft. There is also a small space where kids can sit and make there own art piece. So you can also visit with your family. Definitely visit place in Manchester."
"Wonderful little hidden gem in the city - it’s the perfect place to find handmade gifts for your loved ones, grab a coffee (i think the cafe opens on saturdays) and chill. I really like the community hub they’ve set up by the entrance with plenty of bright seating, plugs and crafts activities for children + most of the time there is an interactive exhibit or live music. I come here for some peace and quiet and to get some work done and I enjoy walking around the different shops and looking at the artwork so 10/10!! (also whoever’s in charge of the soundsystem has the best taste in music omg would an extra star for the SZA and ella fitzgerald on in the back)"
"Amazing! A beautiful space with a varied selection of craft galleries, all local artists and most in residence. One of the best such places I’ve found in the world and an absolute must if you are even vaguely interested in high quality, hand made art and craft. Wow!"
"A great place! Here you can find a lot of different small shops. Everything is handmade. You can buy a special and unique gifts here. I really suggest this place to everyone who loves find something different. You can also have a break in the coffee shop inside the building. Really really nice."
