Part cafe, part fantasy, Richmond Tea Rooms is a Manchester queer classic – a riot of whimsical decor, towering cakes and afternoon teas that feel like theatre. It is family-friendly by day, date-worthy by dusk and, on select evenings, home to cabaret and burlesque shows that draw a glamorous crowd. The staff are famously lovely, the portions generous, and there’s always a non-alcoholic tipple for anyone swerving booze. Expect themed events around Pride, a steady hum of celebrations, and decor that practically demands a photo op. If your cultural calendar includes feathered fans and fondant fancies, put Richmond on the list.
