The unexpected venues anyone can work from in Manchester - posh lunch, cakes and tea included
It would be quite easy to miss Oppidan Social on Edge Street. Nestled between 63 Degrees and Yard & Coop in the Northern Quarter, you wouldn’t believe the large, modern space hosts workers from across the city.
Oppidan Social describes itself as a 'home-from-home' - a shared space where 'you are free to work, study, relax, hold a meeting or workshop, read a book, play piano and get acquainted with good people.' You could help yourself to bottomless teas, coffees, hot chocolates or even strawberry Nesquik milkshakes if you fancied it. The kitchen also has the facilities to make your own toasties, with bread in the cupboard and cheese and ham in the fridge.
There were a handful of people working and I found I was able to concentrate on my own work easily, while appreciating the background noise of people on conference calls and typing away. I clocked out after around four hours and the staff member told me that people are capped at four hours. So, you could spend nine hours a day there - from 8am until 6pm - and pay £19.20. It works out at £2.13 an hour.
There were plenty of options for lunch. For the £16.50 you pay to book your spot, you get a ‘light bite’ - which includes flatbread, truffled mac and cheese or prosciutto ham - and a ‘small plate’ - including oysters, potato and ox cheek or lamb fat cabbage, to name just a few. I wouldn’t choose such a fancy lunch everyday, but it was nice to opt for something different - and who doesn’t love to indulge in a bit of luxury when they can? I felt supercharged after my day working from the hotel - probably from the copious amounts of caffeine I’d had, but mostly down to the great service and food.
