A city break to Manchester

Hi
I have a city break trip to Manchester in a couple of weeks.
I have not been there for about 10 years.
Can anyone recommend a good place to eat and somewhere to go for a quiet evening drink?
I have searched online, but the advice seems out of date and vague.
I would appreciate any help as a friend told me there are a few places that resemble the wild west by about 11pm.
Thanks
Serpo

Where about are you staying?

Hi
Thanks for the reply, near the Arndale shopping center.

I’ll ask around. My wife says the Corn Exchange has a variety of restaurants. Or there’s Alberts Shed which is about 15 mins walk from the Arndale, or the Alchemist which is just off Picadilly Gardens.
