Best & Cool Bars in Soyland Town

"In February 2020 BC (before Covid) we got all excited with a visit to their about-to-open second Manchester branch on Oxford Road but it remains closed as we pine for a cold beer and a hot bhaji on a long table more than ever. We’ll have to make do with Deliveroo for now. It’s all veggie, as existing fans will know, but vegans have plenty to love from the iconic vada pav to the famous broccoli, kale and onion bhajis."

"A vegetarian and predominantly gluten-free restaurant, Bundobust is serving some of Manchester's best cheap eats. For just £6, you can munch on a bhaji butty, vada pav veggie burger and raghda pethis mushy pea cakes, with a wide choice of cocktails to top it off."

"If you’re looking for a Sunday brunch with friends, East 59th is doubtless the best option in the city. The rooftop restaurant and bar is located on the third floor of Victoria Gate shopping centre. East 59th brings you contemporary dining in a sophisticated Manhattan-style restaurant."

"East 59th is one of Leeds' swankiest rooftop restaurants and bars, offering views of the city's gorgeous architecture including the historic Kirkgate Market. Grab a space on their outdoor terrace for jaw-dropping vistas, boujee brunch plates, and NYC-inspired cocktails come nightfall."

"East 59th brings US-inspired cuisine into the centre of Leeds. The New York City-style bar and grill offers guests a contemporary American dining experience throughout the day, then seamlessly transitions into a sophisticated Manhattan-style rooftop nightspot."

"Nestled on the fifth floor of Trinity Leeds, Angelica will cater for all your alfresco dining needs. Their rooftop terrace comes complete with breathtaking skyline views as well as heaters and canopies if the weather demands. They have a tantalising selection of sharing boards and small plates, or you can dive straight in with one of their mains."

"Grab a seat on Angelica’s terrace and enjoy a luxurious brunch or two-course lunch with bottomless prosecco for £28.95pp. It’s available every Sunday from 10 am to 7 pm, so you literally have all day. No need to wake up early if you don’t fancy it!"

"A classy rooftop bar, make your way to Trinity and head six storeys up. Said to boast sophisticated cocktails, the atmosphere here is a calm one and again has some picture-perfect views."

"A former textile mill and one-time grotty dive pub, the historic building that now houses Headrow House was given a hefty makeover to transform it into the four-floor nightlife venue it is today."

"Belgrave's sister bar Headrow House has one of the biggest outdoor terraces in Leeds, set over two floors. It offers stunning views over the rooftops of the city."

"03/06/2021: We had a wonderful evening celebrating a birthday. The food was delicious, especially the scallop starter. Our steak mains also didn't disappoint."

"What: One of the first ports of call for young Mancunians when the sun shines, lively Dukes 92 is often packed to the rafters on a blistering summer’s day. The expansive canal-side terrace is where to soak up some rays, enjoying cocktails or plates from Duke’s globe-trotting menu. Options include steaks served alongside skinny fries and peppercorn sauce or a lamb and halloumi salad, while ending with the chocolate volcano (pudding with a gooey fondant center) is a must."

"Perched on the edge of Deansgate Locks, the beer garden at Dukes 92 is a spectacle to behold. Designed with lazy summer days in mind, this vast outdoor dining space is the perfect place to get stuck into one of the many delicious sharing boards that are on offer."

"Visit the award-winning Assheton Arms with a loved one while in the local area. The pub is set in a stunning, Grade II listed building and specialises in hearty meat dishes and fresh seafood specialities. Popular meals include Morecambe Bay plaice, Persian chicken and venison haunch, plus a variety of mouth-watering puddings."

"Situated on Oldham Street in the heart of the Northern Quarter, Fig + Sparrow’s café has proven so popular that their dining space has recently expanded, taking over the area that used to be populated with gifts. There are still a few small gift ideas and a selection of stylish cards and gift wrap to peruse as you indulge in a delicious cup of coffee out of one of their instantly recognisable red and yellow cups. To secure the perfect photo, take the window seat to shoot your steaming brew against the fogged up glass."

"Half hip café, half hip design store, Fig + Sparrow may have only been around for a few years compared to the Northern Quarter heavyweights that surround it, but it’s one of Oldham Street’s most beloved stores. In summer, the crowded outdoor tables may lull you into thinking that it is simply a café, but inside you will discover a myriad of carefully selected items for your home or for gifts. It’s also one of the best places in the area to find greetings cards and wrapping paper."

"Fig and Sparrow, 20 Oldham Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 1JN - Visit now. Serving up a stylish selection of locally-produced gifts, cards and homeware, as well as great coffee and cake."
