Top Best Japanese Restaurants in Whalley Range

"Why: As its first restaurant outside of London, Shoryu decided to show the people of Manchester that there is more to ramen than Wagamama lets on. Located in the centre just a short walk from Manchester Piccadilly, it's handily located for next next time you're catching a train into the city. On the menu you’ll find, tonkotsu – a pork broth ramen topped with char siu bbq pork or a chicken katsu curry ramen which merges together two of the most popular Japanese dishes in the UK."

"Ramen aficionados have helped this pleasingly authentic noodle joint to thrive and multiply, first in Japan and then across the UK, despite stiff competitio ..."

"A fun, contemporary venue in town, Sapporo Teppanyaki offers a more interactive experience for sushi fans, with food prepared before guests in the centre of the restaurant. The Japanese restaurant presents itself as one of Manchester’s “finest” sushi spots, serving Nigiri, Temaki, Maki, California rolls and Sashimi, with other Japanese dishes such as Teppanyaki, noodles, and chicken rolls available to order. Sapporo Teppanyaki, 91-93 Liverpool Rd, Manchester, M3 4JN."

"About: With plenty of seats available at the bar, pull up a stool and watch the masters in action. Sapporo's contemporary take on Japanese cuisine tastes just as good as it looks. The restaurant's friendly and attentive staff will be able to tell you everything you need to know about each dish and how it will be served - so there won't be any unpleasant surprises!"

"Manchester’s oldest teppanyaki restaurant, cooking quality ingredients in a no-fuss style in Chinatown. You will be seated at a large table surrounding an iron plate cooking surface where the chef will prepare your meals using the freshest ingredients."

"Nestled between Garstang Road, Sir Tom Finney Way and Blackpool Road, Moor Park's size is the first thing that comes to mind - as it is Preston's largest, and oldest park. Split into several areas, the park has a small observatory owned by the University of Central Lancashire, a bowling green, skate park and several fields. Over the years, Moor Park has played host to many music events hosting names such as Calvin Harris, David Guetta and Rihanna."

"Set on Lancaster Canal, Haslam Park is a beautiful Edwardian park in Ashton. The park's two main entrances feature Grade II listed gates and make the park particularly special. Since 2006, the northern part of the park has become Haslam Park Nature Reserve and that, along with the sensory gardens, lime tree avenue and old drinking fountain, mean that this park should not be missed."

"Unusually colourful (its orange banquettes and Perspex back-bar give it a look of a 1980s Top of the Pops set), this Dale Street tap-house serves a mix of quality guest beers (Wild Beer, Mikeller, Burning Sky), and Beatnikz’ hop-forward brews, such as I Smash Citra and Generation IPA. The weekday cask ale deals are notable (recently pie ‘n’ a pint £5, Mon/Tues), as is Beatnikz’s ability to bag high-profile guests for its meet-the-brewer events. For instance Arbor Ales and US star Modern Times. Pint from £3.70, beatnikzrepublic.com"

"Beatnikz microbrewery is located in a railway arch in the Green Quarter, and their taproom used to be too. But they closed it last year and moved to a shiny new bar in the Northern Quarter where they’ve just introduced a beer slushie machine. Head in to enjoy their core range of beers."
