Things to do in Wolverhampton

Wolverhampton is the third-largest city in the West Midlands behind Coventry and Birmingham. While it may not attract the same number of visitors as those two, it’s certainly not a place to dismiss. Full of culture, great places to eat and drink, and a Premier League football team, Wolverhampton is a must-see place if you’re in the area.

For a snapshot of the city’s heritage, visit Wightwick Manor. This National Trust house is a view into the late 19th-century arts and crafts movement, and perfect for a relaxing and historical wander. For even more history, walk the 50 acres of grounds at Bantock House Museum and Park. Built in the 1730s, it’s home to a collection of historic toys and dolls, porcelain, and steel jewellery. If you’re a sports fan, you have to visit Molineux, whether it’s to see the stadium or watch Wolves play a home game. It’s the life and soul of the city, and their Premier League status means you’re likely to watch some world class football.

Wolverhampton is great for shopping, whether you’re looking for your regular retail experience or searching for some independent stores. Head to the Mander Centre for your national chains and well-known restaurants. If it’s a nice day outside, the main high-street is brimming with recognisable shops and cafes for a quick bite. If you’re in search for a niche gift, you’ll find independents dotted around the city’s streets, from Wulfrun Wools and Crafts to Arcane Games.

Few restaurant and bar scenes are as diverse as Wolverhampton’s. Head to Dilshad Tandoori for one of the best curries in the UK – it opened in 1972 and has been serving top notch Indian food ever since. For a more upmarket experience, Hamilton’s is the place to go, with fine-dining and premium cocktails dished up all week. The best coffee can be found at Gluttons for Nourishment, so make sure to head there for a hot drink and a cake in between shops.
