"Another special spot in Spinningfields suitable for both celebrations or just a boujee Tuesday – The Ivy’s roof terrace is stunningly decorated, with plus velvet furniture, fire pits for warmth and grand trees throughout setting a botanical theme for its brasserie offering. Most of the space is for diners, however, there’s a lovely bar within the terrace, too, where you can perch up for a drink or two. The Ivy, The Pavilion, Byrom St, M3 3HG."

"One of Manchester's most glamorous destinations ever since it opened in 2018 has been The Ivy in Spinningfields. The swish restaurant and bar will be reopening its ground floor outdoor terrace from April 12. The space is both covered and heated, so it's perfect for Manchester's less-than-favourable weather."

"🍰 There’s a range of luxury desserts to choose from at the Brasserie, including tiramisu, creme brulee and rum baba, but the star of the show is undeniably the chocolate bombe – a melting chocolate dessert with ice cream, a honeycomb centre, and hot salted caramel sauce. I’m drooling just at the thought."

"Why: There isn’t just one breakfast option at Mackie Mayor, which makes it great for groups who want to eat together but may want different things to eat (just like your mother said, it’s our individuality that makes the world so beautiful). The space itself is a grand grade II listed market building, with incredible original detailing and a buzzy atmosphere, and houses multiple food traders with communal seating laid out in the centre of the space. When it comes to the food offering you could find yourself enjoying anything from fruit and granola to shakshuka or avocado on toast with eggs."

"Mackie Mayor is a hip food market refurbished from the shell of the historic Smithfield Market, originally opened in 1858. Come for the artisanal local food options like Fin Fish Bar and Baohouse, stay for the industrial design and glass ceiling."

"Continuing a theme of Coffee Spots in glorious Victorian shopping arcades, I present Pot Kettle Black (PKB), which has been gracing Manchester’s coffee scene since the start of October 2014. The Barton Arcade, home of PKB, is one of the most beautiful I’ve seen and PKB takes its lead from there, with gorgeous external features and some of the most ornate and sumptuous window art there is.

"30/05/2021: I’m having difficulties deciding what was worse the food or the service I went to Regal cafe at 12.30pm hoping to get the breakfast which finishes at 1pm , my kids and I stood around for 10/15min being totally ignored before being seated, there wasn’t a queue, waiters just walked past and ignored me when I asked for a table. Finally when we were seated I tried placing my order straight away, I asked 4 different waiters who walked past that I’m ready to place my order each waiter said either 5min or 2 min, after 20min of being seated I asked the 5 time only to be told it’s 1.10pm and no longer taking breakfast orders !!!!!!!. Breakfast order finish at 1pmWe ordered lunch, samosa chart was not a samosa chart, it was cold samosa with last nights chickpea curry thrown on top, the masala fish stunk of mold, burgers were eatable !!!"

"This popular antipodean cafe drags loyal Northern Quarter locals out of bed at the weekend for its epic brunches.
