Affleck's palace!

Affleck's palace was established in Manchester in 1982, where its reputation for weird and wonderful jewelry, gifts and unique fashion has grew and grew into a mecca for the........ weird and wonderful people of this world! Affleck's palace is located on Church street, in the Northern quarter of Manchester, just off the main high street.

It was opened in 2008, under new management, and has under gone a make over, into the wonderfully bizarre completely unfathomable empire it is today! They have a wide variety of vintage, modern and enchanting shops, including a barbers, a tattoo and piercing studio and a cafe for a well needed break - well with 3 floors of winding pathways to secret places, you will need it! It has a huge number of shops... 63 mini boutiques to be exact, with a little scape for more!

As a proud Mancunian, i have been going to Affleck's for as long as i can remember and it has always amazed me, it makes me think of Dr Who's Tardis, as it doesn't look gigantic for the outside, but it is on the inside! You can go around and shop, get a piercing and a cake for days.... and get a bit lost sometimes! One recent experience for me with Affleck's is when i went to town with a friend and we walked around Afflecks, not one, not two...... but 6 times! So it can be done, but bring your hiking boots!

All of the shops are so cute, the only way i can describe them is in a alice in wonderland - secret garden kind of way! What ever your looking for you will surely find it here, whether you want a top hat, anime-style bag, make up, a tattoo, a vintage dress, tarot reading, ethnic jewelry, art work or a relaxing chinese massage, Afflecks is the place for you.... and your friends! And often you will find the shop owners and clothes makers working hard on the sewing machine in their shop, ensuring you get the best unique, hand made fashion and jewelry available! Also the products are quite cheap, with sales on most of the time!

The shop at Afflecks includes, Katie crush, Panic posters, Cherry cherry, Vampire bunnies, American graffitti, Soho's, Bling blings and the retro games shop! Its a delight to shop at Afflecks! They also have a piercing studio, which is small but it is very sterile and clean. Overall Afflecks is the best shop..... in the world! *Simples*

They are open Monday to Saturday and on bank holidays!
They also have a new website you should definitely check out! With new photos of Afflecks make over, a list and description of all their shops and a blog.
