Best Dinner Places to Eat in Over Alderley

"A restaurant with a view, 20 Stories is a serious hotspot throughout the summer months, thanks to its panoramic views of the city that can’t be found anywhere else. The restaurant is beautiful inside out, with a modern, luxurious feel inside, and a sleek-yet-botanical vibe outside. The menu is just as high end, too, with dishes such as native lobster, roast skrei cod, racks of lamb and so much more."

"If you’re after a ‘restaurant with a view’ in Manchester, you can’t do better than 20 Stories. Found on the 19th floor of No 1. Spinningfields, the entire city …"

"Bundobust is another one of these underdogs which is completely turning the concept of ‘fine cuisine’ entirely on its head. No longer does good food feel the need to be served on white table clothes on fine Bone China and washed down with a 2005 Saint Emilion Grand Cru. Nowhere teaches us this lesson better than Bundobust with its 100% vegetarian Indian street food served in paper trays, paper cups and with as much craft beer as you can pour down your gullet."

"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."

"We already know that Tattu is a swoon-worthy date night bar in Manchester, but did you know this place serves a quirky cocktail featuring a mini cherry blossom tree inside it?. Sip on this and plenty of other unique mixes while grazing on Pan-Asian plates for the ultimate experience."

"Tattu delivers modern Chinese cuisine in a fabulously decorated venue. Cherry blossom trees fill the restaurant whilst traditional Chinese decor accentuate the walls. Small sharing plates as well as banquet-style set menus are available celebrating contemporary Chinese flavours."

"The Ivy's terrace made headlines for all the wrong reasons when a fire broke out there just a few months after it opened. It hasn't happened again since though, so you're all good. This bougie London brand is still going strong, despite the pandemic, and its views of the ever-changing skyline are worth a visit even if you can take or leave the food (see Gordo on scathing form when he reviewed The Ivy when it first opened in Manchester)"

"A very special spot standing proud in the centre of Spinningfields, The Ivy consists of three charming floors – one of which is completely decked out in the most spectacular, Far Eastern-inspired decor. And the nods don’t end there. The menu is completely inspired by Asia, too, taking inspiration from all corners of the continent when curating their menu."

"The Ivy Spinningfields in Manchester is a multi-faceted venue, offering several floors of beautiful settings and tasty food and drinks. Apart from ground floor Ivy Brasserie and second floor Ivy Asia, the true gem is found at the very top, with the Ivy Roof Garden. Very colorful and very lush, the spacious rooftop really deserves its 'garden' epithet."

"Located in one of Manchester’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, First Street Bar & Kitchen offers a comfortable place for guests to come to eat, drink and relax. It’s eclectic menus are packed with internationally inspired cocktails and dishes. The sun kissed terrace with games area, feature circular...See more"

"Located opposite Chorlton Green, this is a popular spot for a sunny day. The whole family, including dogs, are welcome but its prime location can mean it gets busy."

"In an idyllic mock Tudor setting, Horse and Jockey serves fresh, seasonal produce sourced from supreme Lancashire suppliers. A delightful assortment of dini ..."

"The first public events will return to the Stoller Hall from June 7. Shows will be socially-distanced with reduced capacities initially, but there are hopes that it will be back to near-full capacity by September. See more and book tickets at stollerhall.com/whats-on."

"The Stoller Hall is situated in the heart of Manchester and offers a personal live music experience that puts you closer to the music. The concert hall delivers a programme including classical, folk and jazz music, as well as spoken word and comedy."

"Opening times: The main box office is open 10:00 – 18:00 from Monday to Saturday (20:00 if there is a performance) and 16:00 – 20:00 on Sundays when there is a performance. Designed by the talented Frank Matcham, Buxton Opera House first opened its doors in 1903 and has been delighting theatre-goers ever since. One of the UK’s leading provincial theatres, the programme here is jam-packed with 450 performances a year."

"Set in the iconic Midland Hotel, the cosy booths, stylish décor and relaxed atmosphere of The French by Simon Rogan makes for an opulent date night. Worthy of any special occasion, quality food is at the heart of this operation with meticulously crafted tasting menus. The French’s absent Michelin star is well documented, but the infamous missing star isn’t all bad - diners can experience Michelin standard food without the waiting lists and price tag."

"Head to The Midland Hotel to discover Adam Reid at The French, an award-winning upscale restaurant serving modern cuisine by chef Adam Reid. The restaurant uses only seasonal produce, and the menu offers a choice of four, six, or nine courses, all of which showcase classic British food with a contemporary twist. This is where you want to go for a special occasion or a fancy night out, and it's essential to book in advance."

"The flagship fine dining restaurant at The Midland Hotel is Manchester’s long-standing answer to Haute cuisine. Now under the Manchester-born chef Adam Reid, winner of the BBC’s prestigious Great British Menu, who has brought The French a new sense of youth. Despite the name, The French focuses on British food using local ingredients and native flavours such as Beef Dripping, Rhubarb and Lancashire cheese."

"63 Degrees is a small, family run restaurant, bringing a little taste of Paris to the Northern Quarter. This is proper, grown-up dining - with tablecloths (remember them?) - but without the stuffiness of a restaurant that takes itself too seriously. Perched in one of the trendiest districts of Manchester, the food staunchly opposes the hipster fad-fest that surrounds it."

"This bustling restaurant in the Northern Quarter is bringing a touch of French raffinement to the city, utilising fresh produce and authentic cooking techniques. 63 Degrees in one swish experience for those on the hunt for a restaurant in Manchester that's earned a Michelin Bib."

"According to chef/proprietor Eric Moreau, 63 degrees is not only the perfect temperature for coffee, but also a touchstone for cooking in the modern id ..." Read our full review"
