Manchester places to eat in city centre nr victoria

Hi in Manchester tonight and need somewhere to eat around 6 30 with two folk one is a veggie, one is elderly and walking over to deansgate is a non starter.
Any recommendations, trying to avoid print works generic fodder and, teacup on thomas only does platters in evening.

Use the shuttle bus to widen your options.

This and That.

Evuna for tapas? Although still a bit of a walk. I would use the bus or tram to widen your options.

They have luggage but if we use tram or bus …where then?
Other options nr Victoria or n quarter? Or st Anne’s sq?
Thanks for the replies so far

What kind of food you looking for? EastZEast is about a 10 min walk from Victoria and does a nice curry. There’s going to be a bit of a walk to get to anywhere decent to eat from a tram/bus stop too, I’d recommend just jumping in a taxi and going somewhere nice!

Arndale Market food court 😀

I always eat there. Plus you can have a beer in there too at the end of shopping.

The Round. Inside the Royal Exchange Theatre is nice,not to far?, might need to book.

The old wellington nr Manchester cathedral is closer but can be packed and not that posh.

Red Hot World Buffet is not a million miles away opposite no1 Deansgate.

Or treat them both to a Taxi -_-

Exchange is good distance, then I suppose opens up deansgate as well, they want a walk been couped up all day but it will be 10 mins…normally use the corner house but not open yet
