Artistic expression in Manchester

“Sarah did a great job on my 0 skin fade on the back and sides, giving me a clean and perfect blend. With the professional help of Ash, she achieved an amazing result. She was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience easy. I would highly recommend her.”

“Ever meandered through Chorlton Park and missed the Tibetan cafe? Well, I finally gave it a go and oh boy, what a joy! Snug by the playground, it's perfect for foodie families, picnic punters, and anyone on the prowl for friendly faces and hearty portions! Tried the sha sha chicken and the momos, both worthy contenders, but it was the cauliflower stir-fry with rice and veggies that stole my heart (and stomach). This humble veggie is transformed into a showstopper so delectable, it might just compel you to write poetry. So, gather the kiddos, nab a sunny spot and get ready for a taste of Tibet that'll have you planning your next visit before you've even left!”

“This is a great space for our capoeira class and events. The owner is a very understanding person too. Highly recommended.”

“Watched a couple of their shows at the Parr Hall. All the kids were having a great time performing. It’s good to see them doing something other than TV or phones :-)”

“Dee is amazing made me feel so very welcome so at ease. Amazing artist can’t wait to book my next one. Will deffo be advising people to come to him. Thank you again Dee! See you in a couple of weeks Emma x”

“I have lived at Transmission house since March & love living here. The building team are always really friendly and approachable. Monika is always efficient and happy to help with anything and I always feel safe during the evening with stone & saad on the front desk, thank you for creating such a nice vibe here :)”

“Amazing performing arts club. Molly and her crew are amazing facilitators and my two daughters absolutely love them and the club. It’s such a supportive, fun and positive organisation and they’ve made so many friends. Can’t recommend enough!”

“Our 8yo daughter attends Monday Acting School with Footlights and she absolutely loves it. She gets very excited to go every week because, in her own words, the class is creative and fun. She was asked to write a speech a couple of weeks ago and when she finished, she couldn't have been more proud of herself. We are delighted to see how much confidence in her abilities she has learnt in class and how much she enjoys it. We'd highly recommend Footlights Bury & thank you, Team Footlights, for your hard work and dedication.”

“We chose the Flower House as our florist and venue dresser for our wedding and could not have been happier! From the get go they were unbelievably helpful and attentive. The venue looked stunning, the bouquets were amazing and everything was set up perfectly and on time. I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone.”

“I cannot recommend this studio highly enough. I had my first “proper” tattoo done by Mark Armstrong 21 years ago and since then have had numerous tattoos done by Big Gaz (Gary Bevan). I visited Third Light Tattoo for the first time today and am exceptionally pleased with the work done by Gaz.”

“I couldn't recommend Masquerade Tattoo enough, Mel's work is unreal. Through the booking and design process to the end result it was a great experience. Very warm and welcoming. Mel must have a very delicate touch as my sessions with her were the least pain I have ever experienced in the chair which is just a bonus. 10/10”

“Thanks Dai so so happy with my tattoo today and can say I really enjoyed the experience time flew by love love love it ❤️”

“Hi I am Mobina. I had two minimalist tattoos done with Stephanie, and I couldn’t be happier! She is incredibly kind, professional, and talented. Her attention to detail and efficiency made the whole experience so smooth and enjoyable. In fact, it was the most relaxing tattoo session I’ve ever had! I absolutely love her work and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, delicate designs.”

“Maisie is a wonderful tattoo artist, so easy to get along with whilst maintaining a high level of professionalism. She was very accommodating to my needs of frequent breaks and even offered me cups of tea. The result of my tattoo was even better than what I had originally imagined. 6 months on, my tattoo still looks just as amazing. I could not be more happier with the result. I highly recommend Stone Heart Tattoos. I shall be returning in the near future.”

“Wes at Inklusive is great, he was really patient with me and advised on the best options based on what I wanted to do with the design. I would definitely recommend him!”

“My grandma had a wonderful experience with Simon. The artists were incredibly kind, patient, and made her feel completely at ease. The quality of the work is amazing, and she left with a beautiful piece she’s delighted with”

“This is the only place I will go now. Amazing tattoo I'm so happy with it. Really friendly relaxed environment and max is sound. Would recommend this to anyone. Booking my next one in straight away.”

“I have been going to Kadie for tattoos regularly for a number of years now. Not only is she welcoming and comforting she is also perfectly professional and so incredibly talented. She has designed me many amazing pieces and I will be going back for many more. She has also done my eyebrows which I am really pleased with especially as I don’t have to think about them at all anymore”

“Absolutely blown away by the tattoo I had done by Dem! Her realism work is nothing short of incredible – the detail, shading, and overall artistry are next level. She captured exactly what I wanted and turned it into a stunning piece of art that I’ll cherish forever. Dem was professional, friendly, and made the whole experience so comfortable. If you’re looking for a tattoo artist who can bring your ideas to life with breathtaking realism, look no further. I can’t recommend her enough – 5 stars all the way!”

“Tattoos by Nic is the Only place we as a family will go, in our opinion Nic is the best tattooist locally, by far!!!! She has gone above & beyond, opened up one sat just for me & my sister.

“Been tattooed at this studio a couple of times now, once by Joe and then by Chris. Great studio with a nice friendly atmosphere. So many amazing artists here.”

“Second time visiting over two years. Highly professional, patience and understanding. Both times, I've been with Wayne and just puts you at rest, gives you your freedom for what you want, but also has that artistic flair to come with amazing ideas, that will, discuss with you first. No pressure at any time”

“sam has been doing my sleeve over past year and he's the absolute best at what he does, from making you feel 100% comfortable to helping with the design come to life, i wouldn't go anywhere else for tattoos now”

“Turned up begging for help as my original piercer put too short a bar in my ear and the swelling was agony. Lee was calm, friendly and changed my bars effortlessly. Really appreciated the help and would happily return for a tattoo! Smart, clean and quality service- what more could you ask for?”

“Quality guy, Liam. Love me tattoo mate see you again very soon”
