"Bella Italia might not seem like the most obvious choice for a bottomless brunch, but actually, their offer is pretty damn good. You get two courses and bottomless prosecco for £27.99pp, and you can take advantage of this offer every Friday to Sunday between 11:30 and 5. How about a bruschetta followed by a pizza, or a delightful pasta dish?"
"The stylish Lowry Centre in the heart of Salford Quays in Manchester plays host to Bella Italia, part of the highly popular Italian restaurant chain with ..."
"You must have been living under a rock if you haven't heard of Rudy's. The Neapolitan pizza masters only recently started doing takeaway (only collection at first) around lockdown, but we're so happy they're keeping it up - those queues and bookings out the wazoo at their Peter Street and Ancoats locations are impossible at times. They even started selling 'Bake at Home' kits, though you really need a proper oven to make it the way they do."
"Rudy’s Pizza, 9 Cotton Street, Ancoats, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M4 5BF - Visit now. Based in an up-and-coming area of Ancoats, Rudy’s Pizza has a host of rave reviews and it’s no surprise why. The pizzas on offer are top-class, and the restaurant boasts a charming laid-back feel."
"Award-winning restaurant Don Giovanni is the oldest independently-owned Italian in Manchester, established in 1984. We've proudly been serving fresh, high-quality authentic Italian meals to the people of Manchester for over thirty years. We are located on Oxford Street adjacent to St Peter's Square tram stop in the heart of Manchester city centre."
"It can be hard to find a restaurant for a sophisticated meal that has more than just salad as a vegan option, but Don Giovanni have changed the game. Releasing a dedicated vegan menu earlier this year, the chefs are no strangers to plant-based meals. Tuck into a roasted aubergine lasagne or pizza vegano, complete with vegan mozzarella."
"This charming Oxford Road Italian is a popular choice for celebrations and has previously been awarded the gong for the most romantic Italian restaurant in the UK. With proposals happening here every weekend if you’re thinking to pop the question this Valentine’s, trust you’ll be in safe hands at Don Giovanni."
"Don Marco is an Italian-themed brasserie that’s ideal for couples in the mood for a romantic dining experience. Many of the dishes on Don Marco’s menu are especially colourful thanks to the heavy use of fresh vegetables in most dishes. Pasta fans will find dozens of dishes at Don Marco to choose from ranging from standard spaghetti alla carbonara to tagliatelle with salmon, spinach, peas, and asparagus."

"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."
"Greens is regarded as Manchester’s flagship vegetarian eatery, winning multiple awards such as Manchester Food and Drink Awards (2000, 2003, 2006, 2008) and the prestigious title of AA Rosette in 2000. The restaurant was created by Simon Connolly and Simon Rimmer – who is now a very popular TV celebrity chef – and was founded to be a vegetarian venue with ‘scrumptious dishes and exciting ingredients that aren’t 10 years behind the best restaurants in town’. Now one of the highlights of Manchester’s culinary landscape, the restaurant serves imaginative plates bursting with flavour that are made using fresh local ingredients."
"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."
"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."
"Football (known in America as soccer) is the national pastime in England, but especially in Manchester, home of Manchester United. The city's National Football Museum is a great way to learn more about the history and culture of the beloved sport, including special exhibits on topics like the fashion of football shirts and women's soccer. It has a huge archive of items, with pieces that date back to the early 20th century, and it's engaging for kids as well as adults."
