A Student's Guide To Manchester By The Smarties - Welcome

Manchester houses the biggest student population in the whole of the United Kingdom. To a new university student the size of the city and the amount of placed to visit can be a daunting task.

We have created this website to guide you in your first year as a student here in Manchester. The website contains information on a number of bars, clubs, restaurants and other venues of student interest. We’ve photographed some of them and included contact details and directions.
