On a day trip to Manchester from Stockport, we wandered the chilly streets looking at the shops and eating our way along. If you walk directly out of the train station, you’ll run into a massive pedestrian street full of designer boutiques and department stores.

KRO Manchester
We stopped in at Kro for lunch. Kro translates to “Danish Village Pub”. It was kind of like eating in an IKEA living room. Not a bad thing. We happened upon The Living Room, which I recalled reading about before we left. It became apparent that it was a hot spot for the well-dressed working set to share a drink on a Friday afternoon. We squeezed our way in avec practical shoes and rain coats anyway. I loved their brand, menu design and the combination of slick white leather booths with a traditional, dark wood bar.
