Best & Cool Bars in Heywood

"Indian street food and craft beer bar Bundobust is a shining gem amongst the restaurant chains of Piccadilly Gardens. Venture down its wooden stairway and you’ll be met with a sprawling food hall, complete with casual canteen-style benches and a glorious glass skylight. Don’t expect a typical Indian menu though."

Their comprehensive menu offers a great range of options to suit even the most discerning of tastes."

"Teppanyaki Chinatown, 58-60 George St, Manchester, M1 4HF - Visit now. The teppanyaki style of Japanese cooking has a chef using an iron griddle in front of diners, often performing theatrics to entertain the diners. This can be entertaining at times but runs the risk of detracting from the food itself."

"Set in the heart of Manchester's Chinatown, Teppanyaki is the place to go for the ultimate food-theatre experience. Authentic Japanese food is cooked right before your eyes, allowing you to learn all about the Teppanyaki cooking culture. Often restaurants of this style can appear overcrowded and somewhat gimmicky, but not Teppanyaki Chinatown."
