Levy Market returns this Saturday with its usual set up of extraordinary street food, tasty drinks, plants, home wares, freshly baked bread, vintage clothes and much more. This week, there will be a smorgasbord of carefully selected traders serving up treats and snacks to munch through while enjoying the market’s relaxed and family-friendly vibe. Catering for a range of tastes and moods, you can usually sample everything from mini samosas to wood-fired pizzas, Thai curries to Polish delicacies. Alternatively, stock your larder with the finest in artisan jams, cheeses and chutneys as there’s a veritable windfall of preserve sellers. Shopping at Levy Market has an extra feel-good factor too, as the market operates as a social enterprise, meaning that profits are ploughed back into the community. Levy Market was nominated for Best Food and Drink Pop Up Event, Club or Project at the Manchester Food & Drink Awards 2015 which were announced at the awards at Manchester Cathedral on Monday (21 Sep). While the Market didn’t win, the award shortlist, which included winners, Altrincham Market, proves that markets are thriving in Manchester and the surrounding area. So if you’ve not been for a while, why not pop along this Saturday and see what you’ve been missing.
