Description

A historic Manchester icon, reimagined for modern dining and leisure.

Corn Exchange is a Grade-listed city-centre landmark with restaurants, bars, leisure and a 114-bed aparthotel under one iconic roof. More than a venue, it’s a destination, designed for all-day trade, seven days a week.

A 178,000 sq ft destination bringing together national names and independents in one place—serving commuters,
shoppers, hotel guests, tourists and locals from morning to late. The building’s heritage creates instant theatre; the tenant mix makes it a habit.

The building’s origins were as a Corn Exchange built on a separate site in 1837 which then moved to its current destination in 1903. With a rich history and many incarnations since, the Corn Exchange’s current offering is now just over 10 years old.

Location

Positioned by New Cathedral Street (“Designer Row”), Selfridges, Harvey Nichols, The Arndale and moments from
Manchester Victoria, the Corn Exchange benefits from retail footfall and transport flow – ideal for brands scaling into the city or expanding nationally and internationally.
