Here are all the Christmassy treats on offer at Society this festive season.

The independent food and drink traders based at Society have launched their Christmas menus and there’s a wide variety of festive creations to tuck into – including beetroot bhajis, loaded fries with all the trimmings and gingerbread Cosmopolitans. 

The multi-kitchen venue is perfect for festive get-togethers, tucked away next to the Bridgewater Hall and away from the hustle and bustle of the Christmas markets. The food hall boasts five independent food traders representing cuisine from around the world, plus a cocktail and wine bar and the Manchester taproom of Hebden Bridge-based brewery Vocation.

Vocation – The brewery has got two special Christmassy brews for guests to enjoy, Yule Log Chocolate Stout and a Chocolate Orange Stout.
