There are some wonderful cafes, take aways and restaurants near by. Check out my recommendations!
Great for a take away curry! They will deliver, but it's only at the end of the road so easy to collect.

My favourite curry house near Shaw. Jump on the bus (59) or grab a taxi which should be less than £10. Book a table at the Blue Tiffin on busy times such as weekends and bank holidays.

I like to grab my sandwiches here before getting the tram to Manchester - it's much cheaper than buying in the city centre. You can eat in or get food to go. All the classics like full English breakfasts, jacket potatoes and a full range of sandwiches (for £2 or £3!).

Things to do in Shaw

Shaw offers beautiful surroundings and fantastic scenery being outside of the city. There are some lovely places of natural beauty and local heritage to explore. Market day is usually on a Thursday (Market Street Shaw is just a 5 min walk from the house!), and although the market is very small, it's nice to have a look around and see the local English market town way of life. If you want more excitement and nightlife, you will head into Manchester on the tram.
Beautiful scenery and great for walking and hiking. Perfect place to take the dog or go for a picnic in summer.

Pubs in Shaw

Ok, let me be honest - the pubs in Shaw are, what shall we say? Interesting! Think old men with a Guiness or drunken teenagers! There's pool and karaoke to be found - a great way to socialise with the locals is to simply head to the nearest pub, order a pint and you're away!
Cheap food and drinks and popular for a Friday night. However, Weatherspoons is a chain, so it's not that traditional. Can get very busy on weekend evenings.
