Naughty Dating Manchester: Make a Night of It
Over 70 members in Manchester, and one cheeky message could have you planning Friday in the Northern Quarter.
Manchester Does Nights Out Properly
This city has never needed an excuse to go out. Naughty Dating simply finds you someone to go out with: flirt through the week, meet for a drink at the weekend and see where the evening takes you after that.
Where a Manchester Date Ends Up
Start in the centre and the night tends to sort itself out. Three neighbourhoods carry most evenings.
The Northern Quarter
Oldham Street, Thomas Street and Stevenson Square: bars with mismatched chairs, record shops, murals and a crowd that stays out late. It's a short walk from Piccadilly station and made for a first drink that turns into a second.
Ancoats
Across Great Ancoats Street the old cotton mills have been turned into flats, with independent bars and restaurants at their feet. Quieter than the Northern Quarter, so you can actually hear each other flirt.
Spinningfields
The polished end of town, just off Deansgate: glass towers, terraces and cocktails. Good for the nights you want to dress up and be seen doing it.
Over 70 Manchester Members to Flirt With
Naughty Dating has over 70 members in Manchester. Matches are picked with distance in mind, along with age and what sort of fun you're up for, so you can keep things on your own doorstep or widen the net to Salford and Stockport.

Public, central and easy to find after a week of messages, which is all a first meeting really needs.

Three Steps From Inbox to Bar Stool
Get to Know Them on the Site
Do your flirting on Naughty Dating before anyone hands over a number. Someone trying to get you on WhatsApp before you've even met? You'll see a warning, and blocking them takes a tap.
Meet Where It's Lively
Pick a central bar on a busy night, make your own way there and tell a friend where you'll be and who with. A verified badge on their profile is a good sign before you go.
Know Your Last Tram
Metrolink doesn't run all night, so check the last tram to Bury, Altrincham, Eccles or wherever home is before the second round, or have a taxi number ready.

Manchester, Asked and Answered
Is Salford close enough for a Manchester date?
Very. Salford Quays is on the Metrolink line to Eccles, a short tram ride from the centre, and Salford's own bars sit just across the river from Spinningfields.
Do Manchester's trams run all night?
No. Metrolink stops overnight, so look up your last tram before you meet, or plan a taxi. Trains from Piccadilly cover Stockport and the towns to the south.
What ages are Naughty Dating members in Manchester?
Mostly 35 to 54, close to two in three of them, with a quarter under 35 and about one in ten aged 55 or over.
Which part of Manchester suits a first date?
The Northern Quarter for buzz, Ancoats for a quieter drink and Spinningfields when you fancy dressing up. All three are central, so it's easy to call it a night if the spark isn't there.
