"One for the vegans here, Bundobust is the perfect example of proving that you don't need meat to pack a punch. With a proper fast-food feel, despite being able to eat in at their Piccadilly location, each time those lovely little pots are plonked in front of you is just as exciting at the last. The tarka dhal is to die for, their food has a real grab-and-go feel to it and it's very reasonably priced considering the amount of flavour you get out of each dish."
"Bundobust is a huge beer hall serving craft ales in the heart of Manchester’s Piccadilly Gardens. It also happened to win Restaurant of the Year at the 2017 Manchester Food and Drink Festival awards, thanks to its stellar menu of Indian small plates."
"The Ivy Spinningfields in Manchester is a multi-faceted venue, offering several floors of beautiful settings and tasty food and drinks. Apart from ground floor Ivy Brasserie and second floor Ivy Asia, the true gem is found at the very top, with the Ivy Roof Garden. Very colorful and very lush, the spacious rooftop really deserves its 'garden' epithet."
"One of Manchester's most glamorous destinations ever since it opened in 2018 has been The Ivy in Spinningfields. The swish restaurant and bar will be reopening its ground floor outdoor terrace from April 12. The space is both covered and heated, so it's perfect for Manchester's less-than-favourable weather."
"For many years it was difficult to be a vegetarian and to indulge in junk food in the same way that meat eaters do. It just didn’t have the same feeling to go out for vegetarian or vegan food, as say, to head out to a burger joint and pig out for the night. Thankfully things have changed, and although there is still a degree of making vegetarian and vegan meals look like their meat equivalents, it’s about much more than that."
"Where: Duke Street (lunch service Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays only). Vegan’s and veggies this is a Friday treat for your lunch in Liverpool and meat eaters who don’t mind missing their daily meat intake for the day, you should give it a go to. Simply put the menu consists of junk food made from vegan and veggie goodness including delectable dishes such as tofu burgers, seitan strips and BBQ pulled jackfruit."
