The Northern Quarter life
The Northern Quarter’s streets are lined with bohemian clothing stores, record shops, independent cafes, bars and restaurants. In the evening, bars buzz with people, and you can hear live music and performances at local venues. This area is excellent for people looking for somewhere with more charm and character.
