The Museum's WaterShard Café has a unique view overlooking The Lowry Centre and the historic Manchester Ship Canal.

The café offers a wide selection of food and beverages in a light and spacious eating area.

You can choose from a range of delicious cakes and scones for a mid morning or late afternoon snack, or enjoy a hot cooked lunch served daily from midday to 2.30pm.  Sandwiches and salads are available for those who prefer a lighter meal.

There is a full range of meals for all the family from organic baby meals (high chairs available), children’s lunch bags (up to age 14) and half portions of adult meals (at half price).
