Best Gelato in High Lane

"If it’s ice cream that’s tickling your taste-buds, climb the staircase in Afflecks to the first floor to discover the most eclectic selection of flavours imaginable. Chances are that you’ve seen Ginger’s ice cream van at one of the city’s many events, festivals or markets, but for an ice-cream hit whenever you fancy, their base in Afflecks is a dessert lover’s heaven. With flavours including baked apple sorbet, black treacle and parkin, and the iconic Chorlton crack, you’re not going to find bland vanilla here."

"One of the best ice cream parlours in Manchester, Ginger's Comfort Emporium is a Northern Quarter favourite handing out dairy and vegan scoops all year round. With specials including Campari and coconut, Eccles cake and Chorlton Crack (peanut butter and salted caramel), these frozen spoonfuls are always at their best when served in sandwich form. We all scream for these quirky ice cream sandwiches."

"Ginger’s is the perfect place to go for a Mancunian-made ice cream. An award winning real dairy ice cream business, this Affleck’s emporium offers a range of exciting flavours which even include vegan options. The flavours change quite regularly so there will always be something new to try on every visit; they recently served a vegan chocolate brownie flavour which went down very well!"

"A post shared by k a t i e (@daydreamkatie) on Aug 6, 2016 at 9:46am PDT. Located on a working farm, this dairy and ice cream parlour may be a little off the beaten track, but it’s a great place to escape to for a quiet day out, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Nestled in the pretty village of Dungworth, just outside of the Peak District, you can visit the farm’s on site ice cream parlour for a tasty cone or scrumptious sundae, or enjoy a wander around the area before picking up a tub from the farm shop to take home with you."

"Frurt specialise in Frozen Yogurt (Froyo), with dairy and non-dairy options available. The dessert spot has several locations scattered around Manchester, with more than 50 toppings (many of which are vegetarian, with some vegan) up for grabs. You create your masterpiece by picking and choosing from fresh fruit, dry fruit, sweets, Chocolate and premium sauces such as pistachio, ruby and Bueno including warm sauces like biscoff and Nutella."

"This 13th-century church about a mile north of Macclesfield is the fourth church on this site. But what’s unusual is that the third church is still here, out among Medieval yew trees. There’s a Norman Romanesque chapel in the churchyard, dating to the 12th century, with semi-circular door and window arches and weathered but visible tympanum relief and lozenge patterns in the archivolts."

"At the top, look inside St Michael’s Church, which commands the Market Place and can be seen across the town. Although the church was almost completely rebuilt at the start of the 20th century it is highly regarded for its two historic chapels. Here you’ll encounter what is considered to be Cheshire’s richest collection of alabaster effigies, produced in the 16th and 17th centuries for the Legh and Savage families."

"Taking inspiration from London’s Boxpark pop-up, Hatch is a series of colourful shipping-containers housing street food vendors, bars and independent shops. Located right in the middle of Manchester’s student-focused Oxford Road, you’ll often find undergrads enjoying one of Parmageddon’s locally famous chicken-parm sandwiches or devouring Herbivorous’ range of vegan burgers and loaded fries, dripping with barbecue jackfruit. Its ever-changing selection of traders, combined with a price point that’s around the tenner mark, makes this hugely popular hang-out the perfect place to grab a bite to eat without breaking the bank."

"This trendy foodie outlet sits under the flyover near Manchester Met and Manchester University. Strings of exposed light bulbs cast a hipster twinkle over the self-contained courtyard, and there’s a sun-soaked garden filled with long wooden tables where you can while away summer afternoons. Peruse the artisan beers on tap and by the bottle at Öl nanobrewery."

"Award-winning food, drink and retail destination, Hatch, may already be booked up, but has kept 50% of its tables back for walk-ins only from this week, so you can find menus, opening times and more information on the website here."

"Simply visit us to eat and drink or maybe spend the night and stay in one of our delightfully decorated rooms. You are assured of a warm and friendly welcome from your hosts Bob, Cynthia and Elliott Emery. Our privately owned 16th century Inn is situated in 9 acres of its own land set in idyllic surroundings on the banks of the River Derwent."

"Greens offers an inventive take on vegetarian food, but you don't have to be meat-free to enjoy the hip restaurant, located in West Didsbury. Open by chef Simon Rimmer, Greens has been around since 1990, and it makes the most of meatless possibilities. Expect creative dishes that emphasize produce, like the jackfruit shawarma and the truffled mushroom Wellington."

"[Read More…](https://quisine.quandoo.co.uk/guide/best-vegan-restaurants-manchester/attachment/greens/). Possibly the most famous vegetarian restaurant in Manchester is Greens. You’ll find it in Didsbury, where Greens comes courtesy of Simon Rimmer (the nice bloke off Sunday Brunch)."

"Greens is an unmissable spot helmed by TV chef Simon Rimmer. This lively West Didsbury restaurant is celebrated by those who know that you don't need meat to have a gastronomical feast; expect food packed with flavour and assembled with local, fresh and seasonal produce."
