The  o2 Apollo Manchester is located a mile outside the city centre in Ardwick, an easy 15 minute walk  from Piccadilly Station.   
                 As a result, there are not many restaurants  near  Manchester Apollo, although there is a wider choice of  pre-show dining offers to be found  around  Piccadilly in the city centre, with taxis  waiting readily outside to take you the 5 minutes drive to the venue.   
                 You can also catch the train to Ardwick Station, which is a 10 minute walk from the Apollo, and just 3 minutes train ride from Piccadilly Station.
