Being located right in the heart of Manchester's city centre, there are many restaurants near The Bridgewater Hall on Lower Mosley Street, home to both the The Hallé Orchestra and the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, as well as playing host to various touring musicians throughout the year.

Directly across the road from The Bridgewater Hall is Manchester Central, the convention complex that is still lovingly referred to locally as "G-MEX", its original name after being converted from the old Manchester Central Railway Station.

A few metres along Mosley Street is the new First Street development, which includes the HOME entertainment complex, housing the former Library Theatre and Cornerhouse art house cinema.

With so many restaurants near the Bridgewater Hall to choose from, there's some great pre-show offers to be had.
