Thirsty Korean

Sadie Pearson
The Thirsty Korean

A standout spot on the strip of bars and restaurants that lead into Chorlton, Thirsty Korean serves extremely tasty and and authentic Korean food, with the owner Eunji Noh never failing to create a laid back and very friendly atmosphere, treating every diner as a specially invited guest.

Authentic Korean food is still, sadly, limited across Manchester making this stand-out spot all the more special. If you’re in the area, or if you’re not, get yourself here. We promise you won’t regret it!
