10 Best Breweries in Merston Drive

"Unusually colourful (its orange banquettes and Perspex back-bar give it a look of a 1980s Top of the Pops set), this Dale Street tap-house serves a mix of quality guest beers (Wild Beer, Mikeller, Burning Sky), and Beatnikz’ hop-forward brews, such as I Smash Citra and Generation IPA. The weekday cask ale deals are notable (recently pie ‘n’ a pint £5, Mon/Tues), as is Beatnikz’s ability to bag high-profile guests for its meet-the-brewer events. For instance Arbor Ales and US star Modern Times. Pint from £3.70, beatnikzrepublic.com"

"Beatnikz microbrewery is located in a railway arch in the Green Quarter, and their taproom used to be too. But they closed it last year and moved to a shiny new bar in the Northern Quarter where they’ve just introduced a beer slushie machine. Head in to enjoy their core range of beers."

"Another hit when we were able to do restaurant reviews, Ruyi has everything you’d expect from a Chinese restaurant but reincarnated in vegetarian or vegan form. Yes, that includes ribs, wings, prawn crackers, crispy beef, and crispy duck. The menu is overwhelmingly vast with a dim sum selection that could be taken as a challenge."

"Indian street-food specialists Bundobust have ventured across The Pennines to open this spacious Piccadilly branch. Inside, seating is canteen-style with the enticing menu of snacks and sharing plates being equally informal, and entirely vegetarian too."

"Not only does MOJO whip up some of the best cocktails in the city, but it's also home to some unmissable vegan and vegetarian menus. Get stuck into the list of mai tais and pornstar martinis, matched with mac balls, plant-based hot dogs and fries smothered in an array of sauces."

"A post shared by Home Sweet Home (@homesweethomeuk) on Feb 23, 2020 at 4:15am PST. Another year-round pancake favourite, Home Sweet Home might be down to just one Manchester site now after closing their Great Northern Warehouse branch at the end of last year but their pancakes are still as banging as ever. Find them in the Northern Quarter to indulge in plates like these, topped with salted caramel, biscoff sauce, cream, strawberries and cinnamon crunch."

"From the towering cakes to the boozy milkshakes, Home Sweet Home is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth. The American-inspired brunch restaurant will wipe away any morning blues with its titan breakfasts; opt for pancake stacks with a breakfast cocktail thrown in for good measure."

"Home Sweet Home is an inevitable address for brunch-lovers in the Northern Quarter. If you are looking for some good comfort food, you are sure to find it here. We recommend the Eggs Cali."
