Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Knowl Hill

"Manchester’s highest – and possibly finest – restaurant, bar and grill. D&D restaurant group’s flagship Manchester restaurant, 20 Stories was the opening of 2018. Floor to ceiling windows (and a huge, outdoor terrace, the same size as the entire restaurant floor), afford breathtaking views of the city and surrounding countryside, while the menu riffs on Hawksmoor’s luxury steakhouse concept."

"When we wanted to enjoy some cocktails at a rooftop bar one night, some quick research had us landing on 20 Stories. It turned out to be a great decision – 20 Stories was a beautiful oasis of a restaurant, and its rooftop terrace had the greatestview of Manchester. The terrace was like lounge with heating lamps, a few bungalows and we had such a fun time sitting out there in the skies."

"Just in time for the festive season, 20 Stories is reimagining Christmas dinner with a 5-course set menu which is 100% vegan. Following cocktails and canapés, there’s spicy butternut squash soup, balsamic beetroot wellington, and a tart lemon sorbet, finished off with vegan macarons. Branch out and spoil yourself this Christmas, you’ve earned it!"

"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."

"There's no doubt about it, walking into Bundobust is sure to bring your day an unbridled amount of joy - as well as plenty of incredible Indian dishes. Serving a creative and modern take on Indian street food, Bundobust has rapidly become a favourite in the city. And it's easy to see why."

"Tattu is a family run business that offers contemporary Chinese cuisine in remarkable surroundings. The goal was to build a customer experience that stimulates all senses, fusing beautiful and meaningful design with quality and innovative Chinese cooking - and they’ve certainly achieved it. The food is as ‘grammable as the venue itself."

"Tattu is a strikingly beautiful restaurant that takes you on a journey of Asian-inspired libations paired with daring dishes, perfect for those above-table food shots. Expect elegant food offerings of fresh seafood, dumplings and wagyu alongside colourful cocktails to wash it down."

"The Brasserie at The Ivy in Manchester do a Saturday and Sunday Brunch (and bank holidays). The restaurant itself is a beautiful art deco inspired space. With options like Truffle Arancini, Zucchini fritti, Eggs Benedict and Avocado Benedict, as well as Hot Buttermilk Pancakes for those (like me) with a sweet tooth!"

"For those who like their brunches with a touch of glamour and a sprinkle of special, Ivy in Spinngingfields should be top of your list. Head to the first floor brasserie which serves British dishes from 11am every weekend, encompassing all the classics, from smoked salmon through to asparagus and hollondaise."

"From the decadent jade floor to the mouthwatering menu, The Ivy's Asian restaurant is bringing you a real taste from the East. Expect dishes from 'raw & cured' to 'dumplings & bao' paired with a huge selection of wines and a carefully curated cocktail menu."

"The Lemon Tree is a family-run continental style cafe and bistro that hosts regular wine tasting evenings and live music events. Friendly and relaxed with a wonderfully quirky interior, The Lemon Tree is perfect for an informal meal with friends. By combining favourite dishes from different cuisines, they have created quite an eclectic menu."

"Brunch at Mary & Archie is available from Monday to Sunday until 4pm. You will find all the best classics in this homely, independent establishment. We recommend The Veggie Breakfast."

"Footage think that brunch is the most important meal of the day, and based on that logic, they’ve made their bottomless brunch available every single day of the week!. That’s ninety minutes of bottomless prosecco, beer and G&Ts, coupled with one of their yummy brunch dishes, for a mere £20pp. Wallet-friendly as well as fun, that’s what we like to see!"

"The Beach Hut – Vegan Caribbean cuisine. They specialize in Jerk Jack fruit and ital curries and also offer patties, fresh smoothies, vegan cakes and brownies."

"Don Marco is an Italian-themed brasserie that’s ideal for couples in the mood for a romantic dining experience. Many of the dishes on Don Marco’s menu are especially colourful thanks to the heavy use of fresh vegetables in most dishes. Pasta fans will find dozens of dishes at Don Marco to choose from ranging from standard spaghetti alla carbonara to tagliatelle with salmon, spinach, peas, and asparagus."
