"The Trafford Ecology Park is tucked away in the industrial Trafford Park behind an oil depot and is a registered Biological Important site and a true oasis of wildlife. The park is spread across an area of eleven acres and is a true delight for a nature enthusiast."
"My Cookie Dough has a seriously committed following, judging by the crowds at its Manchester Arndale stall (it recently opened another at the Trafford Centre too). Big dollops of dough are baked until warm and crispy, but still soft enough to dip into with a spoon, then loaded with various sauces and toppings. Indulgent flavours include red velvet and Nutella, white chocolate and raspberry, Oreo, fudge and honeycomb, Biscoff, and coconut chocolate."
"Taking the humble traybake to new heights, My Cookie Dough is among the best dessert shops in Manchester. Their Slutty Brownie stacks are a mouthwatering mess of chocolate brownie, crushed Oreos and their house cookie mix, served up as chunky slabs and coated in a hefty drizzle of Nutella. With locations at both the Trafford Centre and the Arndale, you won't have to travel far to get your hands on these bad boys."
"🍰 Seriously gooey hot cookie dough, with tons of topping options to choose from including Nutella, Biscoff, Red Velvet, Kinder and even Strawberry Cheesecake."
"This relaxed tapas bar in Altrincham is inspired by the tiniest independent tapas bars of Barcelona and Madrid. Lots of bar stools and casual tables create a busy, buzzing atmosphere and everything on the enthusiastically Iberian menu is handmade in-house."
"This independent tapas bar began its journey in Altrincham but now also boasts a second site here in Salford, pictured above. Focusing on homemade food and great ingredients, go for the relaxed atmosphere and stay for the food."
"Looking for a boutique hotel in Manchester for a foodie base?. When a hotel’s reception doubles up as a cocktail bar you know you’re in for a good time. After a friendly Northern greeting, continue up the statement stairs to a cosy reception area that’s all exposed red-brick walls, gilt-panelled mirrors and hanging plants."
"The food at mi casa su casa is fantastic, service is excellent. 05/06/2021: I was visiting blackpool for a couple of days and researched ahead before hand due to having to make reservations ahead of time. Mi casa su casa was rated highly and we love tapas and haven't had it in such a long time we was really looking forward to it."
"The restaurant enjoys a great reputation among locals and keeps drawing return customers. Cuisine served is Mediterranean with an emphasis on Spanish. The menu features a vast array of tapas, including classics like tortilla and patatas bravas."
"Head to the Blackpool Promenade pick up quintessential Blackpool souvenirs. Barely any shop in the area isn't continuously in full stock of rock (local hard candy), hats that read "Kiss Me Quick", risque post cards and other tacky but oh-so-cheerful items."
"The Blackpool Promenade can be divided into 3 distinct areas. North Shore, Central, and South Shore. This makes for miles of arcades, small shops and stalls, cafes, bars and restaurants the iconic illuminations, and the famous Blackpool tram service."
