"Indian street food and craft beer bar Bundobust is a shining gem amongst the restaurant chains of Piccadilly Gardens. Venture down its wooden stairway and you’ll be met with a sprawling food hall, complete with casual canteen-style benches and a glorious glass skylight. Don’t expect a typical Indian menu though."
"You can eat for well under a tenner at Indian kitchen Bundobust. Located in the Northern Quarter, the restaurant is a veggie haven of spicy cooking; we recommend the masala dosa, a warming combination of soup and mini pancakes."
"This vegetarian Indian street food restaurant has plenty of options for vegans, such as onion and kale bhajis, vegan Vada Pav and Tarka Dhal. Available to order on Deliveroo from the Northern Quarter restaurant."
"The Ivy's terrace made headlines for all the wrong reasons when a fire broke out there just a few months after it opened. It hasn't happened again since though, so you're all good. This bougie London brand is still going strong, despite the pandemic, and its views of the ever-changing skyline are worth a visit even if you can take or leave the food (see Gordo on scathing form when he reviewed The Ivy when it first opened in Manchester)"
"An iconic celebrity haunt with beautiful and bold interiors, a retractable rooftop and downstairs bar of gorgeous green decor, The Ivy is an Instagrammer's paradise. If you're looking for pretty food, they've got it."
"One of the largest restaurants to open in the UK in 2018 with 535 covers, The Ivy Spinningfields is set over four floors with a ground floor brasserie, ..." Read our full review"
"One of the city’s most popular vegan and veggie restaurants, Down The Hatch specialise in vegan junk food. As a meat eater this is one of the first places we tried when going for a meat free option and we haven’t looked back since. Serving up incredible small plates (jackfruit nuggets, cauliflower wings), stacked burgers, seitan ‘wings’ and much more."
"The decor and vibes are cool and the food is simply to die for!. The portions are so big, which makes this the perfect cheat day venue for Veggies and Vegans alike!"
"Cobbled streets and Georgian Townhouse splendour, breakfast alfresco and with views over the cathedral. If you’re not already sold on The Quarter, then perhaps it’s food will convince you. An Italian inspired independent, we’re talking freshly baked pastries, smoothie bowls, freshly brewed coffee and the usuals, pancakes, poached eggs and peanut butter on toast."
"Family-run deli-restaurant The Quarter offers breakfast, lunch and dinner and they even do home deliveries. So there’s really no excuse for not trying out this Italian restaurant. You’ll almost certainly be able to smell the delicious food from The Quarter before you see it as they also offer a range of fresh homemade bread and pastries to buy."
"Whilst being renowned for its food, the venue is understated for its romance. The Quarter brings the best of Europe together; the road looks like something out of Amsterdam, the decor is reminiscent of Paris and the food is Italian inspired. It doesn’t get much more continental than that."
"Lime Bar and Restaurant, located at The Lowry Outlet Mall, features a large outdoor terrace looking out over Salford Quays. The venue offers a drinks menu including cocktails like Lemon Cheesecake - Limoncello, Pinot Frangelico, fresh lemon juice, cinnamon and gingerbread syrup, shaken with cream; Toblerone - Baileys, Frangelico, Kahlua, butterscotch Schnapps with cream; and Mango and Chilli Margarita - chili infused tequila, chili syrup, mango puree and lime. Call 0161 869 0440 or email randal@limeuk.com."
"Located in the hub of Salford Quays, Lime Restaurant and Bar is a brilliant all-day affordable restaurant in Manchester that's sure to satisfy any hunger pangs. Whether you're looking for a light bite, lunchtime dish, dinner feast or pre-theatre plate, you'll find it all at this vibrant spot."
"On par with the Ship & Mitre, but with a more radical craft bent, the 23 Club is another Liverpool beer hub that will leave craft geeks drooling in excitement. A small basement space beneath the Clove Hitch restaurant (which serves an astonishing 16 keg beers), its eight keg and three cask pumps, not to mention its huge bottled beer list (there are 200+ bottles available to takeaway), read like a who’s who of the planet’s most innovative brewers. Burning Sky, Brew By Numbers, Brau Kunst Keller, Buxton, Brewfist, Birra Del Borgo are highlights – and that’s just the Bs."
"Far away from the classiness that lays just one storey above at The Clove Hitch is the underground and modest American inspired burger joint where soup of the day is always beer. 23 Club is the true definition of a hidden gem as ale advocates will revel in the offering and are more than likely to visit a few times to settle on a favourite. Try one of the Adhop beers, it is one of their own brews."
"Perched on the banks of the River Irwell, Manchester Cathedral - officially the Cathedral and Collegiate Church of St. Mary, St. Denys, and St. George - dates mostly from 1422 to 1506 and was raised to cathedral status in 1847. Particularly attractive are its chapels on both sides of the nave and choir. It was built between 1486 and 1508 with further additions and alterations in almost every subsequent century."
"Manchester's fine 15th-century church of St.Mary was raised to cathedral status in 1848. It is a magnificent example of..... All attractions in SalfordAll attractions in Greater ManchesterComplete A to Z of attractions in England"
"Fletcher Moss Park is a wide network of paths around the area around the Gardens, through Stenner Woods, round Millgate Fields, and along the river Mersey. Much of the area is a Local Nature reserve and there is a variety of wildlife to see and vistas to enjoy. At first, finding your way around can be a little confusing, and a map of the area might help."
"Fletcher Moss Park is located in Didsbury and is a great place to go if you really appreciate nature. The pathways take you through some lovely scenery, making it an ideal place to take a long, relaxing walk. There’s also a café on-site for when you’re feeling a bit peckish, and you could get a little picnic going with your household/bubble."
"Beginning life as a cupcake company, And the Dish Ran Away With the Spoon still serves freshly baked, hand decorated desserts, from layered cakes to brownies, in its charming little tearoom. As well as selling delicious treats, this café serves a popular afternoon tea/brunch, from Thursdays to Sundays. A little different from other locations, And the Dish Ran Away With the Spoon requires advanced booking, but you can expect generous portions and typical English scones and cakes for an alternative style brunch."
"An all-time foodie favourite Dish and Spoon is A-class in every way. Their cakes cover all flavours from chocolate honeycomb to toffee apple to raspberry and rose. The buttercream is light and the layers of sponge are… there’s no other way to say it….moist."
"It is a place where you can eat both delicious and quality cakes. Have you tasted the wet cakes?. If the answer is no, you should try it."
"About: Patisserie Valerie in Deansgate is a haven of self-indulgence. This luxurious, continental-style patisserie and café is famed for delicious handmade cakes and pastries. Under the counter you'll discover a mouth-watering array of sugary treats such as tarts, macaroons and gateauxs."
"I wouldn’t normally have chosen this flavour, but on a hot day they only had three to choose from. Had a changing flavour – hints of coffee, cream and caramel with little bits of caramel which gave a nice texture change."
