Best & Cool Bars in Whittle le Woods

"This laid-back Piccadilly street food favourite has canteen and booth-style seating, and bespoke artwork nodding to Manchester’s industrial heritage. The informal menu is entirely vegetarian: think spiced okra fries, or bundo chaat, a delightful mixture of crunchy samosa pastry, chickpeas, tamarind chutney and turmeric noodles. An excellent beer list showcases local breweries."

"Bundobust is a huge beer hall serving craft ales in the heart of Manchester’s Piccadilly Gardens. It also happened to win Restaurant of the Year at the 2017 Manchester Food and Drink Festival awards, thanks to its stellar menu of Indian small plates."

"A great choice for Indian street food and craft beers, Bundobust never disappoints. Think okra fries, bhaji butties and paneer tikka washed down with drinks from natural wines and IPAs to quirky cocktails."

"Why:A Bavarian beer hall in Manchester might not scream breakfast or brunch to you, but this venue in fact houses its very own bakery, meaning fresh bread and pastries whenever you visit. Each day brings its own unique artisan loaf, with the weekends being reserved for an olive and thyme fougasse on Saturdays, and Sundays seeing a roasted fig and hazelnut loaf on offer. For a sweeter start to the day indulge in a morning bun which is made from croissant dough doused in cinnamon sugar and hot chocolate sauce."

"Albert’s Schloss is a Bavarian-inspired fun palace of extraordinary dimensions and clever design. Behind the glistening tiles of the former Manchester and Salford Wesleyan Mission building (est in 1910) you’ll discover a vast bar, real fires, perfectly preserved original plaster, and a wall stuffed generously with flowers by floral artists’ Frog. You’ll also find a stage, DJ booth and network of beer pipes and tanks serving unpasturised Pilsner Urquell to hordes of adoring punters."

"One of the wildest restaurants in Manchester, Albert's Schloss doesn't slow down for anyone or anything. Not only can you hunker down for big meat and even bigger Bavarian beer, but also table dancing, entertainment, in-house bands and jaw-dropping antics almost every night."

"An eclectic range of small and large plates designed for sharing.Why go?. Manchester DJ duo Luke Cowdrey and Justin Crawford, aka Unabomber, have travelled the world playing music and have brought back inspired flavours to create menus that are imaginative and delicious. What's more, the setting is glorious, one of the most stunning interiors in the city."

"Winning small plate fusion in an iconic and glamorous setting. Housed in Manchester’s iconic The Refuge Assurance Company dating back to 1858, this DJ-run restaurant and bar is large and sassy."

"A notorious party town, the nightlife here is among the best in the UK, with dozens of bars, pubs and clubs attracting stag and hen dos who come in search of a slice of Blackpool entertainment. Even for a more relaxed affair, you need only to hit the promenade and start walking."

"The Flagship is a quintessential Blackpool establishment, with rowdy crowds and hen/stag groups partying like there's no tomorrow. Stop by if you're looking to catch that famed Blackpool nightlife spirit - admission is free. Try the fishbowls and half yards."

Specialising in classic, British dishes, guests can visit for breakfast, lunch, dinner and Sunday lunch, with an array of gins, cocktails, port and more on the drinks menu.

"Located in the refurbished Manchester Hall, you can stay for a long, fine-dining boozy treat or a quick lunch in the Grade-II listed building. British produce is served without fuss in a quality environment, and the martini trolley is a must-try."

There, you’ll find an array of incredible beers in a wide variety of styles, ranging from the hoppiest of ales straight through to the dark and sour Jolly Pumpkin specials. Their beer list is almost too extensive to make sense of, so it’s best you head there yourself and start to sample all of their delicious craft beers."
