Shudehill Bus Station in Manchester

It's ages since I've been there, so was surprised that nothing has changed much. The stand layout is a little bit confusing, but we managed to navigate our way around. Love that the free bus comes and goes from the bus station as that was a massive help. Great little cafe onsite. Still annoys me that we have to pay to use the loos. (Think there's only Ashton that has lifted the fee and we can now pee for free). However, once you've paid the 20p, the loos were in fair condition for a bus station, so happy enough about that.

Good when the buses are on time 😉

Convenient but surprisingly expensive.

The station is dirty and smells bad, and the information staff are not completely helpful. The bathrooms, although they charge a fee, are not clean, and there is no follow-up by the station administration.

Shudehill Bus station is in Manchester. I love the way they buid this station, architecture is really fantastic. When you go there, there are lots off screens and sign boards to navigate you. Also staffs are helpfull. so, it easy to find our bus. I enjoyed Manchester trip and this bus station

The little coffee shop in there is luvley, I had time to spare so I bought a takeaway decaff latte with oat milk, it was reasonably priced.

Travel alot of time from shudehill.

Amazing bus station lovely and close to a shopping centre and just a lovely atmosphere

Really 20 pence to use toilet had to squeeze through a barrier with a case and bag.

Shudehill Station was quite disappointing. There were rats running around, which was unsettling, and the station felt generally unclean. What made it worse was that the security staff stayed hidden behind a screen in a small control room, which didn’t create a reassuring atmosphere. It left the station feeling unmonitored and uncomfortable. Improving cleanliness, visibility of security, and the overall sense of safety would really enhance the experience for passengers.

Well maintained and the buses always arrive on time

Bus home from Manchester. Newsagents in bus station that doesn't sell newspapers!

It was a good experience and bus was on time.

An interchange and easy get-to within city range for commute buses.

Shudehill sucks. No outlets, no wifi and you have to pay for the toilets!

Payment to use the washrooms,a few prople were complaining including me,bad rule especially for dibetics

Very small shop sells stuff and triple prices absolute ripp off clean

It's in a good location with good facilities. That's exactly what you expect from an interchange bus station.

If you getting a coach from here be prepared to have to listen. Carefully. 4 coaches where leaving at the same time thro 1 door genuinely genius idea not.

Nice to travel from here but the place needs some touch ups now.

Good bus station. There is a coffee shop and a convenience store. The employees of Megabus were a bit rude. Especially a young man who helps in keeping the luggage into the bus.

Great experience travelling here in bus 100

Always clean and staff always helpful. Even the customer's are help full.

Beautiful place and Gardens You can watch my youtube Taspdy

Absolute dump, unclean toilets are shameful, which you also have to pay to get into, take the national express instead

You need to have a 20 pence before you can used the toilet which is crazy

Pretty good, the 97 leaves quick sometimes though and the toilets cost a bit

Speedy help from the Travel Shop

Good orgnize and timing for the buses in dparture and arrival. The use of toalets restrected in paying by cash and 20 p coins only which make it difficult for the travelers to use.

Lovely place quite busy but alternates at intervals

It's a coach station , Shop selling overpriced goods

Great station. Staff very informed and nice people. Close to tram stop for convenient travel around the city.

Just be aware there are different stands with the same numbers. Some for megabus, some for stagecoach.

Easy to get around and find your coach stop, friendly staff, always looks and smells clean 🙂

Populated by spice heads and beggars

A lot quieter than Piccadilly but still feels like you are in another country.

Caught a bus there back to Glasgow. Good Central location. Recommended

Great Interchange, always staff around to help you out

Fantastic advisors. Simply hop-in and you're out.

Nice and easy!!! Good to catch buses for London felix and Megabus are cheap options..

Alamgir Hossen was very helpful...purchased items

It's a bus station, not really much else to say

Convenient and quick and well. Laid out I think this is the best station. In the city WiFi is ok but phone coverage seems limited

Clean, calm, information and direction well placed and visible

Nice bus station. But closes after 12/1am so an issue for people who have their bus on 2am or later

Depressing. doesn't even have free toilet

I love traveling with this company bus when going to London.Their drivers are very good indeed

Clean place ,stop G for Megabus fixbus, have pay coin to use toilet

Far too small for the number of passengers that use this bus station, particularly the coach stops. Could do with more seating and a 24-hour retailer

Very basic Busy chaotic... Stand G ... For Megabus & Flixbus.

Bus was in time and carried passengers

Great bus station, only issue is less staff and nowhere to park when collecting someone.

Great interchange for local and international buses

Serene environment and safety check as well

Well informed for destination of buses

Toilet is paid. Not enough coffee.

Easy to navigate transport interchange

Not many people around to ask for bus times or where the stops are

There's a Megabus and other long distance service from here. However the bus station gets locked from midnight to 4 am. Nobody tells that to the long distance bus users and they end up getting kicked out of the bus station every night. Then having to stand outside in the rain and cold , awaiting their London or Glasgow bus. This information should be displayed as public service.

Security cannot handle junkies in here. London Victoria, Birmingham Coach Station do it just fine. Maybe it’s time for Manchester too

Good place to travel across the country

Not the prettiest place in Manchester but functional

Clean, light place, help desk available and a board listing destinations . Shop. Toilet 20p .

Very functional loading and unloading multi transport facilities. Tidy, well equipped and functional

Nice and well maintained bus station

It is a little cold... Make sure to dress up warm!

Plenty of signs and helpful information boards

Very well organized, professional staff, approachable location. Liked it.

Can get quite busy and people are rude staff don't help if you're in need

Very well designed and organized place for passengers. Staff is very professional and well mannered. Enjoyed my visit to Manchester

Best nus station, easy to go anywhere

Connections to other citys like London bribimgham etc cheap prices from Megabus and flix I came from Manchester to London Victoria in 5 hours price is unbelievable 9.56£

When you visit keep 20p in your pocket if you don't have then you will can't go to toilet I put 5p but thos dor was not open 👍🏻

Crowded always as Bus not in time. Had to wait past the scheduled times

It's cold, the seats are hostile, toilets aren't free, and pigeons sometimes get in. Busses are very epic though. 4.3/5

Rubbish, they keep opening it late after, 4 am, especially the young lads. There was this older gentleman who always used to open it on time.

It's the bus station I'm often going to for the flix bus coaches. It has a small cafe inside of it and a little corner shop. The toilets cost 20p coins to get in. On many occasions I've had people come up to me and ask for 20p. I think a lot of coach stations forget that most people don't carry cash anymore and having a 20p coin is often a rarity. There's some nice seating further down where I often go rather than sitting in the main sections.

Need to announce telling people to queue on the inside and stop people from standing on the outside where the buses approach the stop It is annoying when people have queued in the proper place to get these people pushing in

It is clean and but you have to search for your bus if you are not there very often. But in the middle is a cute coffee shop like a little gem from the 50s. And a nice lavazza coffee 😊.

You can get bus 163 going to bury via Heywood. Buses going to Rochdale too

Going to London from shudehill is a nightmare...they make sure its closed and you have to wait outside in rain and cold for the bus

It's just a standard bus station but could be better if they heat up the station especially during the winter.

Heart of Manchester. You can get any bus going to any direction in Manchester

Don't throw away your cigarette, there's someone watching you to give you a fine. But you can spit if you want to, that's perfectly acceptable.

Always go fory tram to shudhill and get my buses

Good bus station. I would suggest a better information board for departure/arrival.

Clean. Coffee available. Staff Kept everyone aware of buses being late/ early/ on time! Entrance to toilets need 20p. Very narrow entrance with dated rotating gate which makes it almost impossible to get into when you have a small case/bag. Clean enough.

Nice Bus station with local and national connections. Shame to have to pay to use the toilets.

On paper it's fine - all the Flix and Megabuses go from here not the main bus station which NeX use, but they all use the same gate (G) so you get some right overcrowding and confusion when more than one is in! Saying that, the Megabus staff were cheery and worked to get everyone on the right coach, and I managed to catch mine fine - just be careful to watch for your coach as there's no screens telling you what is going on! There are toilets but they're like alcatraz with pay gates, and a little shop too. If they sorted out the "everything from the same gate" by using another one, or getting some info screens, things would be a lot better IMO.

Still not the nicest place to wait but near Victoria train station, right beside the shudehill metro station and the new departure board with all the bus times and destinations displayed is a big improvement. Much better than waking round trying to decide which option best.

Terrible sign posting if you are using the night service. Only the kindness of a stranger got me on the right bus! In the daytime, watch out for the killer toilets. This is crazy in this age! Many come through with luggage, it's a major marathon to get in and out. If you don't have the right coins you are stuffed! No staff to help. Nothing if you are disabled. Absolutely appalling. Ps mice and maby bigger creatures roam the building at night

Buses usually aren’t on schedule but it’s what you expect for such a large city

Really didn't like being shouted at by the security guard outside of the disabled toilets, informing me that as I'm not disabled I have to pay. I don't like embarrassment, and he could have handled the episode much better. Besides that, Scotland is a great country

Plenty of seating available because no one in their right mind would want to sit here ! It’s Spartan and cold and unless you have a 20p coin you can’t use the toilets - even then they are not well maintained

Seems smaller that I expected for Edinburgh, but I think that is down to efficient design and use. The area was clean, clearly signed and operated smoothly.

Location for the Megabus to drop off and pick up. Across the road from the arndale centre.

What a lovely wee bus terminus in the city. Would definitely catch a bus from there again.

I have used that bus station while travelling on Megabus, Their services are good

Apparently no bus driver could help direct me to which bus I might have needed to get to where I was going, I didn't have my phone at the time and I don't live in this area, the last driver I asked said he had absolutely no idea of he drove past where I needed to be, shocker because that's the bus I needed to get, I understand they don't know everything and everyone has their own routes but I was literally trying to travel on the route the bus driver was taking, the fact that he didn't know or couldn't be bothered to help me ks ridiculous to me

Rondleiding door de stad, was gratis
