10 places that will deliver dessert to your door in Manchester
"Almost Famous in the Northern Quarter has made the decision to reopen for walk-ins only, and you can find menus, opening times and more information via the website here."
"Also, do not forget to avail of the 4D cinema experience which provides an adventurous ride down Blackpool’s memory lane. It is an amazing experience that will dazzle all your senses. Such a visual experience is worth watching."
"In Manchester’s Northern Quarter, five minutes’ walk from Piccadilly Station, there is an unprepossessing street on which, about half way down, is an unprepossessing store front, part of a tall (four storey) terrace of solid, brick-built buildings. This in turn proclaims itself to be the home of TAKK, a relative newcomer to the Manchester coffee scene. Perhaps this is down to innate modesty (although given the A-boards, I doubt that) or maybe it’s a cunning ploy to lull you into a false sense of security, but the exterior really gives no clues as to the delights that await you when you step inside."
"Another Northern Quarter coffee shop, but this one doubles up as a creative space. It’s aim is to provide a welcoming space to work, meet, talk, and dream up some big ideas. Inspired by travels throughout Scandinavia and Iceland, TAKK serves a unique Nordic Style espresso and their colourful food menu won’t disappoint either."
"Toasties are the ultimate convenience food, all you need is bread, cheese and fire and you’ve got yourself a tasty sandwich. Frankie’s Toasties, the UK’s first toastie restaurant, has opened in Manchester, offering ‘straight up’ toasties with a selection of outrageously good fillings, including Nutella, Supernoodles, alphabet spaghetti and loads more. 98a Portland St, M1 4GX."
"Open and outspoken, chef-owner Gary Usher is a cult figure online, and his passionate following has helped crowdfund five of his six north-west restaurants. It is a remarkable story, one that rather overshadows Usher’s greater achievement: his ability to transpose the ethos of his original venue, Chester’s Sticky Walnut (pin-point contemporary cooking and genuinely friendly service), into multiple dispersed restaurants with equal success. Modish but populist, Kala is the relaxed, self-confident restaurant every city deserves."
