If you like the nerdier side of things, there's Boards and Brews in Manchester. There's a group that meets there every Tuesday to play board games, have a bite to eat/something to drink and socialize and hang out together for a few hours. Most folks typically show up between 5-6pm.

It's a very low pressure environment with some truly awesome people! I've been going to the meetup group for three years (COVID excepting) and met so many people in Manchester this way!
