Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Heapey

"Officially the highest eating and drinking spot in the city, in its short existence 20 Stories has become a Manchester icon thanks to food and drink menus that are able to do justice to its sweeping panoramic views. Think dishes like Manchester Gin beetroot cured Scottish salmon with sour cream and pickled cucumber - and a very Instagrammable Manchester tart cocktail. As far as rooftop terraces go, it ticks all of the boxes and then some with a mixture of cosy fire pits and plenty of cover for cold snaps, as well as uncovered spots to soak up the sun."

"I’ve been to plenty of Rooftop bars in my time is this not the first in Manchester (we also have Cloud 23) just opposite at the Hilton. (Which is 3 floors higher!). However, Many of these rooftop bars lack a TRUE VIBE, & they tend to be very “Stiff” places."

"If you’re after a ‘restaurant with a view’ in Manchester, you can’t do better than 20 Stories. Found on the 19th floor of No 1. Spinningfields, the entire city …"

"With acclaim from national reviewers, Bundobust's street food and craft beer philosophy may seem simple, but it's hella tasty. The Manchester restaurant is a must for sharing vegan food; though don't end up squabbling over the bhel puri - a mix of pastry, peas and tamarind chutney."

"A vegetarian and predominantly gluten-free restaurant, Bundobust is serving some of Manchester's best cheap eats. For just £6, you can munch on a bhaji butty, vada pav veggie burger and raghda pethis mushy pea cakes, with a wide choice of cocktails to top it off."

"Gartside Street,3 Hardman Square, Spinningfields, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M3 3EB. Instagram-friendly interiors are bolstered by a delectable menu of dim sum and Asian-inspired small plates at this ever popular restaurant and cocktail bar. Don’t forget to snap a pic underneath the pink cherry blossom tree."

"Best Dish: Beef fillet and caramel soy with shitake and asparagus. Not strictly Chinese, but Tattu does have a mod-Chinese slant inspired by the strong conceptual restaurants found on America's west coast. Think sleek black lacquered furnishings and private booths around a giant cherry blossom tree."

"Luxurious, sultry and we'd go as far as calling this restaurant sexy, is Tattu one of the most unique and attractive restaurants in the city. That's not all though as it's also home to some of the best Chinese food in Manchester thanks to its roster of dim sum and succulent Pan-Asian plates."

"What: Something of an all-rounder, this glamorous Manchester outpost of The Ivy offers menus that take diners through from breakfast till dinner, with brunch and afternoon tea inbetween.

"What: Found in Manchester’s Northern Quarter, The Pen and Pencil takes its name from the notorious mid-20th-century joint on New York’s ‘Steak Row’, although there’s more than just sirloin on the menu. Head here for brunch dishes, burgers and light bites such as chicken wings or spinach and feta rolls. Sunseekers will also be glad to know that The Pen and Pencil has a large outdoor seating area for those who prefer to dine alfresco."

"Laidback Northern Quarter bar The Pen & Pencil will be screening all the England matches for the upcoming Euros, and entry is free. Walk-ins are allowed, however, booking is advised to secure a spot on the day, as the bar expects it’ll be a busy one. The Pen & Pencil, Fourways House, 57 Hilton St, M1 2EJ."

"This modern tapas bar is in neighbouring Salford, but if you find yourself on the west side of Manchester city centre (Castlefield, Spinningfields, Deansgate), it is well worth the 10-15 minute walk across the border and down Chapel Street to Porta’s, housed in a former bank. The rugged, flavour-packed Spanish dishes are underpinned by impeccable sourcing and quiet kitchen ingenuity. Picos de Europa blue cheese with caramelised walnuts and honey is revelatory, while regulars, such as seared, acorn-fed Iberico pork with mojo verde or broccoli with romesco, are reliable bangers."

"Founded by brothers Ben and Joe Wright, there are now three Porta wine and tapas bars spread across the north-west, the latest of which opened in Salford at the end of 2018. The Iberian-influenced tapas – staples of jamón, croquetas and patatas bravas but also slow-roasted ox cheek, pickled walnuts and purple sprouting broccoli with romesco sauce – is complemented by a carefully curated selection of Spanish wines, cava, beer, sherries and vermouth."

"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."

"Teppanyaki Chinatown, 58-60 George St, Manchester, M1 4HF - Visit now. The teppanyaki style of Japanese cooking has a chef using an iron griddle in front of diners, often performing theatrics to entertain the diners. This can be entertaining at times but runs the risk of detracting from the food itself."

"Set in the heart of Manchester's Chinatown, Teppanyaki is the place to go for the ultimate food-theatre experience. Authentic Japanese food is cooked right before your eyes, allowing you to learn all about the Teppanyaki cooking culture. Often restaurants of this style can appear overcrowded and somewhat gimmicky, but not Teppanyaki Chinatown."
