MANCHESTER’S CORN EXCHANGE

A classic case of ‘it does what it says on the tin’, this stunning Edwardian building was, unsurprisingly, an actual corn exchange back in the mid 1800’s. It’s seen a few changes in its time having been used briefly in the 1970’s by the Royal Exchange Theatre and featuring in ITVs Brideshead Revisited before being taken over by market holders in the 1990’s. Following the IRA bomb that decimated this part of Manchester in 1996, the building was then renovated, becoming The Triangle Shopping Centre, attracting a number of high-end retailers. This last renaissance sees Corn Exchange assume its former name, and this time it’s become a social hub that easily rivals neighbour The Printworks. Corn Exchange Manchester now houses some of Manchester’s most popular bars and restaurants, making this the ideal go-to destination that’s right in the heart of it for a night out in Manchester.
