"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."

"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."

"Adam Reid at The French is one of the city's top fine dining restaurants, boasting an array of awards from 4AA Rosettes to multiple inclusions in The Good Food Guide. The chef, a Manchester native, likes to put a twist on modern British food across a choice of four, six or nine courses."

"French cuisine is widely considered to be the best in the world. Chefs from every corner of the globe flood to Paris to learn all the famous tricks and techniques of Haute cuisine that only the French seem to have the natural finesse for. If fine French cuisine is your bag, then look no further than 63° Degrees in the Northern Quarter."

"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."

"Bistrot Pierre takes residence inside one of Preston's historical churches along Fishergate. The well-known chain restaurant is beloved for its French food, and vegans can experience this too thanks to Bistrot Pierre's healthy selection of vegan options."

"17/06/2021: Met up with my friend had such a lovely time the food is first class and so are the staff"

"23/05/2021: A very warm welcome at La Boheme at lunchtime today. The staff were very warm and courteous and the food divine as always. I can not speak highly enough of this lovely French restaurant."

"Although situated just outside of Manchester city centre, on Wilmslow Road, this restaurant definitely deserves a mention on this list. Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen offers so much more choice than your usual vegetarian restaurant. With veggie prawns, beef, and even duck, this restaurant has gone all the way with creating the perfect Asian dishes with bursts of flavour all suitable for all palettes."

"For those seeking vegetarian and vegan options, Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen is the perfect venue. Not only does this restaurant avoid using garlic, onion and leeks, it also caters to any sort of dietary requirements customers might have. The owners are a couple from Hong Kong who want to introduce healthier meal choices to the community."

"What the restaurant lacks in design, it more than makes up for in the quality of their food. Clients who wait up to 30 minutes for a place at one of the tables appreciate the friendly staff and the authentic food, especially the roast pork belly – all provided at very reasonable prices."

"For something a bit more upscale and thought out yet still totally affordable on the vegan restaurants in Manchester list, Allotment Vegan Eatery (not to be confused with Allotment Bar in Northern Quarter, I made the mistake!) is excellent. Dishing out expertly prepared fully vegan dishes such as “fish” (it’s actually banana blossom!) & chips with crushed minted peas and homemade tartare sauce, rhubarb and ginger lentil stew, portobello mushroom steak and some sharing plates, it’s real nice and fancy and even more delicious. The ambience is nice and cosy too."

"With a 4.7 star rating from 93 reviews, the customers at Town House Coffee and Brew Bar say it is a “great place to hang out” with a “good range of food.”. Photo: (Google Maps)"
