Best Dinner Places to Eat in Mankinholes

"If you want to push the boat out for a special occassion, 20 stories is the place to go. This glamorous rooftop restaurant and cocktail bar offers panoramic views of the city, and is reassuringly welcoming to families. Kids have their own menu featuring delicious dishes like ‘make your own’ Eton Mess."

"This Indian eatery first opened in Leeds but has now expanded to become a chain of three, including one branch located in Manchester’s Piccadilly. Hidden down a set of stairs in a basement off an unassuming city centre street, this place might be hard to find, but it’s worth searching for. Most dishes are vegan, including the newly launched for 2020 vada pav burger, which consists of a deep-fried mashed potato ball, red and green chutneys and deep-fried (spicy) green chilli, all in a vegan-friendly bun."

"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."

"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."

"If you have never been to Tattu you will be getting Chinese food, but do not let visions of late night sweet and sour pork and MSG ridden spring rolls put you off- this is Chinese food like you have never had it before.

Tattu wants to take you on a journey from East to West when you dine with them by showcasing a range of excellent dishes which are stylish, delicious and beautifully presented."

"Considered by many to be the best curry house in the area, Shimla Spice has an excellent reputation. Opened by three brothers in 1998, each with vast amounts of experience, the restaurant was an instant success and remains one of Keighley’s favourite places to eat. They have since gone on to open two other branches – one in Burnley and one in Shipley."

"33 Oldham Street is a party palace that also happens to provide sustenance for the following morning. The Norther Quarter brunch restaurant will fill you up with English breakfasts, bacon sarnies and vegan hash. And come summer, head up to the roof terrace for cocktails and tanning."
