'Manchester's hidden gem' Concept for Living Magazine Dec 2009

'The place to visit for original gifts and one-off art.' Manchester Evening News May 2009

'If it's a real one-off that you're after, Manchester Craft & Design Centre is the most dazzling bet' Metro Nov 2008

In the heart of the city's creative Northern Quarter, and situated in the former Victorian Fish and Poultry Market, Manchester Craft and Design Centre (MCAD) is home to 19 studio boutiques, where talented artists and designer-makers produce and sell their work to the public 6 days a week (7 in December).

Work ranges from jewellery, accessories and clothing to furniture, lighting, textiles, ceramics, photography and painting.

MCAD also presents a rolling programme of contemporary craft and design exhibitions and events showcasing high quality and innovative work from emerging and established makers from across the UK and beyond.

In-house Cafe Aromat serves delicious homemade food to eat-in or take away. Creativetourist.com rates the coffee as 'perhaps the best coffee in all of Manchester' and warns that the carrot cake is 'to die for'.
