QUIET SPOT: Cornerhouse

IN search of a spot for quiet contemplation or getting down to the nitty gritty of a serious subject matter? Then here are CityLife's five 'chinstroker' hangouts:

The Crescent, 20 The Crescent, Salford – Take inspiration in Karl Marx’s favourite pub.

Cornerhouse, Oxford Road, Manchester – Discuss the latest Afghan blockbuster or surreallist installation.

Salutation, 12 Higher Chatham Street Manchester – Popular with philosophy students and lecturers.

Dry Bar, 29-30 Oldham Street, Manchester – Synonomous with celebrated Manchester thinker Tony Wilson.

Taurus, 1 Canal Street, Manchester – Great place to sit outside and watch the world go by.

Any additions? Let us know your thoughts.

How about the Nexus Art Cafe on Dale Street? Equidistantly located between two comic book shops, a changing schedule of arts, yummy food and free wifi, there isn't much more you could ask for!
