All the exciting new brands coming to Terminal 2
An even better way to shop, dine and relax in style before you fly
What's new?
We’re thrilled to finally reveal the new line-up of shops, restaurants, cafes and bars that will be joining all our customer favourites at our upgraded Terminal 2 in 2025.
Our Terminal 2 extension opened in 2021 with a host of local brands such as fast-food restaurant Archies, San Carlo, cafe chain Pot Kettle Black and a brewpub by Joseph Holt, along with airport favourites like Pret A Manger, M&S Food, Starbucks, Upper Crust, Greggs, Boots, Costa and Travelex.
As part of its extensive £1.3bn modernisation, our high profile departure lounge will double in size to welcome lots more fabulous new retail outlets - and it’s giving us more space to showcase many of our favourite Northern businesses too!
Coming in 2025 will be The Avenue and a premium boutique mall which will link up with the existing departure lounge in the Terminal 2 extension. Expect to see everything from luxury boutique brands to high street favourites, an exciting cocktail and champagne bar, and even a new market hall-style dining experience.
Your holiday starts as soon as you step foot inside the airport, and soon there’ll be an even better way to shop, dine and relax in style before you fly from Manchester Airport.

Smaller ‘WDF Express’ units will be dotted at other points through the terminal, giving travellers the chance to grab a great deal or purchase a souvenir at their convenience.
Food and Drink
There will be no shortage of great places to eat and drink in the new look Terminal 2. With everything from pub classics and globally inspired street food, to fine dining and top class cocktails.
Grindsmith
Grindsmith’s city centre cafes have been a magnet for Manchester’s coffee fans since the brand was established by local duo Luke Tomlinson and Pete Gibson in 2014, so we’re absolutely thrilled to welcome them to Manchester Airport. Passengers will now be able to enjoy their range of expertly crafted coffees using ethically sourced beans locally roasted in Ancoats.
Great Northern Market
Get a taste of Manchester’s vibrant street food scene at Terminal 2’s new 472-seat food hall. It will feature seven unique street food kitchens and a bar offering everything from delicious fried chicken to authentic Mexican dishes, Neapolitan pizza and the viral ‘Gooey’ bakes.

Joe & The Juice
Delicious vegetable juices, vibrant smoothies, and vegan shakes to fuel your healthy lifestyle and start your journey with a nutritional boost. Kaspar Basse established this well-being brand in Copenhagen back in 2002 with a goal of making healthy food tasty and definitely not bland. It’s the ideal stop for passengers looking for a healthy alternative.
Fever-Tree Cocktail and Champagne Bar
If you’d rather have a G&T than a cup of tea, you’ll love Terminal 2’s new statement bar from Fever-Tree, the folk behind a range of premium high-quality mixers. Using the best ingredients from around the globe (including quinine from the Rwandan border, ginger from the Ivory Coast, and lemons from the slopes of Mount Etna) passengers can pop in here to enjoy refreshing drinks with a difference.
JD Wetherspoons
Terminal 2’s own branch of the Great British pub company will be a sports bar, so you won't miss out on the action. It’s the place to go for everything from a hearty breakfast, to pub classics like fish and chips, or just a quiet pint while you wait for your flight to be called. Passengers can be assured of an ‘unpretentious, good value’ offering and can even use the Wetherspoon app to pre-order.
Amber Alley
Now passengers can enjoy an extended version of the popular Amber Alehouse. Brought to you by Salford brewery Seven Bro7hers, the modern industrial bar serves craft beers and cask ales as well as low alcohol and alcohol-free drinks. The food menu has been designed to pair perfectly with the bar offering. Expect classic pub dishes with some sharing plates and healthy options.
We can't wait to welcome passengers to our new look Terminal 2 in 2025.
