Chorlton

Popular with trendy young professionals, leafy Chorlton proudly boasts a wealth of independent shops and cafes both in and around Chorlton Cross and along Beech Road. By night, visitors come from across the city to drink craft beers in the suburb's bustling bars. But there is another side to Chorlton - Chorlton Park is among Manchester's most deprived wards while fried chicken restaurants sit alongside exclusive shops and bars on Wilbraham Road.
