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."

"If gorgeous food, a fine dining experience and an environment steeped in history are your thing, then make The French your next restaurant of choice. Based within Manchester’s grand Midland Hotel, The French became one of the first UK restaurants to be awarded the honour of a Michelin-star. Since reopening in 2013, and again undergoing refurbishment in 2016, the restaurant has made rapid progress towards once again becoming one of the finest eating destinations in the country."

"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."

"Chef-Patron Adam Reid is no stranger to fine dining and has worked in many Michelin-starred restaurants during his career. He even scooped the dessert top spot on BBC’s Great British Menu, with his signature dish Golden Empire. Diners at The French can expect the same creativity from Adam with the menu putting his stamp on modern British cuisine."

": With low lighting, deep booths, and its very own champagne snug, this is one of the most elegant restaurants in Dakota. Tuck into a refined menu of chateaubriand, steak frites and black pudding, kale and venison with blackberry, and short rib of beef. Did we mention that they even have suites upstairs?"

"Find the glass pyramid and find one of Manchester's most luxurious restaurants. A haven of white washed wood and a seriously chic take on beach style, Australasia is inspired by Down Under, with a menu that leans towards Japan with sushi and steaks."

"at The Chester Grosvenor is a multi-award winning fine-dining gem that also has four AA rosettes. A dining experience you are sure to remember, Simon Radley offers an elegant and sophisticated interior perfect for celebrating a special occasion. While the menus change frequently to offer on the best ingredients available, the sample menu featuring items such as loup de mer, which is line-caught sea bass with burnt cauliflower, sweet clams, smokey citrus and fennel, and the venison with cocoa noodle, liver ganache, game saveloy and Alsace rashers will give you an idea of what will be in store for you."

"Fine dining made casual with a modern spin on British classics, in the shiny First Street development just outside Manchester’s city centre. High ceilings tower over dark wood and teal furnishings, with cosy booths and dim lighting. An open kitchen gives diners a view of the MasterChef at work."

"Take the very best of British beef and combine it with traditional Turkish cooking techniques and you have the makings of the mouthwatering meat-filled menu at Kassap Meat House. What really makes Kassaps special is the performance aspect of cookery and butchery, often making a spectacle of things like their special cheese-filled Sirloin steaks or the cooking methods of juicy rib-eye cuts. Inside the designers have combined the beauty of Bold Street’s Bohemian spirit with the style and elegance of the period building Kassaps calls home."

"Yep, you guessed it Kassap are the kings of the Steakhouse on Bold street. Exceptional meat combined with Turkish cooking techniques make for a special evening meal at Kassap’s."

"You may recognise The Salford Lads’ Club from the famous cover of The Smiths’ hugely popular 1986 album The Queen is Dead, with a bouffant-haired Morrissey and co stood outside its doors. Now you’re in Manchester, you’d be silly not to venture out to this same spot for a Smiths selfie with your fellow travellers. A popular venue for Manc-music fans; head inside to learn more about the band and to buy exclusive merchandise."

"Located in Salford (Greater Manchester), Salford Lads Club became famous in 1986 when it was featured on the cover of the Smith’s album The Queen is Dead. Manchester is known for its music scene. It boasted some of the most famous rock bands in England and the Smiths are one of them!"
