I am soon to be in Manchester for about 10 days, with the wife joining me for the weekend. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what to do? There's not much on Google other than the national football museum or a tour of the corrie set.
If anyone has any advice it'd be appreciated, won't have a car so needs to be accessible by foot or public transport.
Recommendations for places to eat and drink welcome too. (it's an international week so no football boo)

If you like Indian food make sure you try Rusholme, 50 or more restaurants to try and some pretty decent ones as well. Chinatown also has some decent restaurants.

Manchester is quite decent I think.
Just have a walk round you will be fine and will find stuff to do. Go for a ground tour at city of Manchester or old trafford cricket ground
Train to Leeds if you want something different for a day too.Cougars!!!

Even in international week there will be plenty of lower league and non-league games, I'm sure. Cheap day out and potentially beer on the terraces depending on where you go.
Expect to pay pretty high prices if you go for a beer down Deansgate etc, though there are plenty of cheaper pubs with a bit more 'character' if you delve a bit deeper. Would throw in EastZEast for another curry recommendation by the way. Food is great, decent prices and the service is fantastic. It's near the Lowry Hotel/Salford Central station by the side of the River Irwell so only a 5-10 minute walk from Manchester city centre.

Thanks for the ideas people. Will look at going to a few of the museums and eateries mentioned.
