Explore local shops for souvenirs to remember your trip or find unique gifts for loved ones.
Before you conclude your road trip in England, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Manchester.
If you're in the mood for something new, try 63 Degrees, another premier location with a delectable menu.
