While the humble pub crawl may be one of the UK’s most beloved and sacred traditions, a new type of day-time activity has rolled into town…
The cheese crawl.
It’s exactly what it says on the tin; in a two-hour-long crawl across the city, avid cheese fans will be able to taste and sample the finest fromage Manchester has to offer.
The festivities kick off at the Richard Cobden Statue on St Anns Square, where avid ‘cheeseaholics’ will be treated to a cheesy quiz and a complimentary glass of wine.

Then, they’ll be on their way to some of Manchester’s most prestigious cheese establishments, where they can also learn all the secrets of fine cheese making.
Cheese crawlers will also be introduced to some of the city’s best cheese mongers, as well as a selection of speciality shops you just ‘camembert’ to stay away from… Sorry.
Manchester’s cheese crawl has had glowing reviews from satisfied cheese lovers so far, with one person noting the experience as: “a really nice way to spend a couple of hours… Friendly and fun guide with lots of cheese knowledge and jokes.”
Another person wrote: “Really fun and interesting, would recommend this to anyone who loves cheese.”

Tickets for the Cheese Crawl are £25 and include a ‘fromage’ amount of cheese samples – some of which might not be suitable for vegetarians – optional bread and crackers, and lashings of wine.
You’ll have a choice between 12.00pm or 3.00pm for start times, and the event is running most weekends until the end of the year.
