We took the grand children ( 3 and 5) for an outing to the museum on Sunday. They had great fun up on the first floor trying out all the activities specifically designed for children of all ages, spending a few hours there. The upstairs restaurant area was closed for food but you could use the tables etc for your picnic area which was convenient (downstairs cafe was open). They also had an informative show downstairs around the history of technology in Manchester. Surprisingly the children were kept entertained throughout. A good day out for all of us.

The museum is free, with donations appreciated. The textile exhibit is more adult friendly whereas upstairs is more kids oriented. As two adults we were able to see/read most things (basically the ground floor) in about 45 minutes. About 50% of the museum's floor plan are eating places or special (paid for) exhibitions, so it ends up not being a very large museum if just wanting to see the free areas.

The ground floor cafe is quite nice, with several vegetarian/vegan sandwiches and cakes options.

Manchester Science and industry museum is an excellent place to visit for anyone interested in UK scientific and industrial past. There is a fantastic Hall with spinning machinery, other industrial exhibits and computing equipment. On the top floor mostly set for young children, interactive and play. There is a place to buy food. The museum is free to enter.

Reserved tickets in advance and didn't have to wait to enter. it wasn't too busy. I surprised myself with how fun the upstairs area was. Well worth visiting especially as a family but served as entertainment for us 'adults' too.

Incredible place and the staff were so helpful. Unfortunately we wanted to se e the trains and planes but that was shut so we'll def be back when its ok again. The Cancer exhibit was really good in the basement floor. The cafe was great and my boy loved his flapjack and my coffee was awesome.

Manchester Science and industry museum is an excellent place to visit for anyone interested in our scientific and industrial past. There is a fantastic Hall with spinning machinery and other industrial exhibits from our recent past, including early electron microscopes and computing equipment. On the top floor there's an area mostly set aside for young children, interactive and play. The upstairs is accessed via a lift or stairs. The main entrance is flat and wheelchair friendly. There is a place to buy food and also a nice area where you can sit if you've taken a picnic. The museum is free to enter, well worth a visit.

A great little museum with interesting stories and objects. Free to enter. You’ll learn a lot about the industrial history of Manchester, which is such an important story about the city! Also seems to be great place for kids to explore, a lot of interactive elements.

Recommend if you have time in Manchester! We spent about 2 hours and were able to see every thing. A few groups of students were there for field trip and the staff were really nice. Good and educational for children.
