Best Dinner Places to Eat in Old Trafford

"Perched on top of the shining glass beacon that is No. 1 Spinningfields, 20 Stories is a rooftop restaurant, grill, cocktail bar and rooftop terrace. And one of Manchester's true hot-spots. Equipped with real trees and comfy lounge furniture, the 20 Stories terrace comes with some amazing 360-degree views over the city skyline."

"20 Stories has been taking bookings ahead of reopening, but has also made the decision to hold tables back for walk-in services at its cocktail terrace from this week, so you can find menus, opening times and more information via the website here."

"Occupying the 19th-floor rooftop of No.1 Spinningfields, 20 Stories is the first Manchester project from the D&D London restaurant group, which alr ..." Read our full review"

"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 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."

"One of the most impressive puddings in Manchester, this adorable option from luxe Chinese restaurant Tattu was designed to be eyed-up as much as to be eaten. The chocolate pagoda has become a regular fixture on Instagram grids and it's not hard to see why. The dinky little structure is in the running to be the city's most delicious dessert, promising soft brownie or hazelnut sponge cake and silky sauces."

"Best Dish: Beef fillet and caramel soy with shitake and asparagus. Not strictly Chinese, but Tattu does have a mod-Chinese slant inspired by the strong conceptual restaurants found on America's west coast. Think sleek black lacquered furnishings and private booths around a giant cherry blossom tree."

"The Ivy's roof garden is one of the most glamorous places in the city, perfect for celeb-watching. Opulent fabrics, masses of plants and a retractable roof (plus essential heaters) make it an luxurious hangout in all weathers. You can order from a huge menu of food, including afternoon teas and brunches."

"From the decadent jade floor to the mouthwatering menu, The Ivy's Asian restaurant is bringing you a real taste from the East. Expect dishes from 'raw & cured' to 'dumplings & bao' paired with a huge selection of wines and a carefully curated cocktail menu."

"Health food eatery and juicery, The Garden in Hale has a range of vegetarian and vegan all day brunch dishes like buckwheat pancakes and chia flax porridge, as well as sandwiches, salads and veg-packed bowls. Order via Uber Eats and Deliveroo."

"New spot in town BLVD offers a globally-inspired but delicious menu, with a variety of sushi options to choose from. The pretty venue in the heart of Spinningfields is a brilliant venue for cocktails and a light meal, with the menu featuring lots of Japanese influences. The main menu boasts tasty small plates such as Tempura, Maki, Futomaki, Sashimi, Uramaki, and even a sushi burger made with salmon, avo and sriracha mayo."

"One of the sexiest picks in Spinningfields, BLVD brings you all the vibes of a sleek cocktail lounge with a sprinkling of live entertainment. Indulge in cocktails, Asian bites and late-night antics with your significant other at this quirky date night idea in Manchester."

"Formerly Neighbourhood, LA style Mexican, Japanese and Chinese dining then Nightclub at night. Great place for ordered Bottles to a table if that’s your seen. Lots of good looking people & they sometimes have Live Music/Saxophone on the stage with the DJ."

"The restaurant offers a modern fusion twist of flavours from Poland. The concept was created by two food fanatics who took a humble Polish potato pancake and turned it into a taste fest. And with breakfast being arguably everyone’s favourite meal of the day, Platzki’s brunch menu is perfect for those who are tired of eating the same old avocado on toast."

"Starting life as a street food stall, Platzki is a slick Polish restaurant that has gone from strength to strength. Expect queues at this Spinningfields spot, which serves up a weekly menu of goodies, including the likes of dumplings, slow-braised ribs and beetroot gnocchi."

"Want to enjoy a party night with your friends, compete your friends on a pool table match, looking for a perfect place to celebrate corporate parties or scream with excitement on taking a virtual reality fun ride?. Well, you could not find a better place than Namco Funscape. Yes, this place is located near the famous Tafford Centre which definitely deserves a visit."

"Heaton Park might be big, but my favourite park in Greater Manchester is Fletcher Moss Park and Parsonage Gardens. The Fletcher Moss section is part woodland and part gardens. I love going for walks here because the forest reminds me of home."

"Philips Park, Prestwich is also the home of Bury’s first mountain bike trail and first Countryside Centre. The Environmental Summer Play Scheme is based at the Barn Countryside Centre and uses various locations around the LNR. The playscheme offers local children the chance to experience the environment and its wildlife on their doorstep with a varied programme of activities including pond dipping, mini-beast safaris and environmental games."
