Exams are fast approaching and we don’t want to feel guilty for going wild, having fun and being completely oblivious to the fact that we should be revising. This being said, everyone needs an escape from the monotonous task of studying, so why not check out these three great spots to escape revision and still function perfectly throughout the rest of the day?
An afternoon trip to Teacup
If you fancy a quick bite or a bit of lunch Teacup is the perfect place. Affordable, tasty and rich, Teacup serves up some of the most delicious tea and cake that Manchester’s Northern Quarter has to offer. If you’re more than peckish grab a sandwich or pasty with salad and relax in the warm rustic surroundings. You could even read over some notes or test yourself with revision cards as you eat if you’re feeling particularly studious.
An evening feast at Rozafa
Rozafa is a wonderful Greek Restaurant. You can choose to sit upstairs in intimate candlelight or enjoy live music and dancing downstairs; this spot is the perfect place to eat whilst having a bit of fun. They serve up big plates of food and even bigger helpings of good service and music. From hot or cold mezze to delicious kebabs and fried seafood, there’s no way you could be unsatisfied.
A mid-afternoon treat with a scoop or two at Fresco Freddo’s
With the weather picking up, my final weekday spot is Fresco Freddo’s Gelataria, Manchester’s answer to delicious Italian ice cream in the city. From rich, flavoursome scoops of coffee, nut or chocolate ice cream to sweet or zesty fruit sorbets, this place is an absolute treat. You can chose to have your ice cream in a cone, on its own or even alongside crêpes or waffles. Cakes and coffee are also on the menu, but with such perfectly smooth up ice cream, why eat anything else?
