Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Lose Hill

"20 Stories, No. 1 Spinningfields, 1 Hardman Square, Manchester, M3 3EB - Visit now. The new kid on the terrace bar block is 20 Stories – Aiden Byrne’s restaurant and bar at No 1 Spinningfields. A large proportion of this sky-high venue is dedicated to its outdoor terrace, which offers panoramic views of the city from an enviable 19th-storey setting."

"20 Stories are the only restaurant in Manchester where you will be able to see a 360 view of the city. This beautiful restaurant gives you the opportunity to dine in a one of a kind rooftop garden, with the chance to enjoy your food while viewing the city. Along with their award-winning cocktails, 20 stories really set the bar high with their beautiful furniture and pristine restaurant."

"A new kid on the block, Aiden Byrne’s menu is a modern British affair with ingredients either locally sourced or from the restaurant’s own farm in Cheshire. And as you might expect, Manchester’s highest restaurant offers stunning views over the city to complement the food and service."

"Bundobust is another one of these underdogs which is completely turning the concept of ‘fine cuisine’ entirely on its head. No longer does good food feel the need to be served on white table clothes on fine Bone China and washed down with a 2005 Saint Emilion Grand Cru. Nowhere teaches us this lesson better than Bundobust with its 100% vegetarian Indian street food served in paper trays, paper cups and with as much craft beer as you can pour down your gullet."

"One of the most impressive puddings in Manchester, this adorable option from luxe Chinese restaurant Tattu was designed to be eyed-up as much as to be eaten. The chocolate pagoda has become a regular fixture on Instagram grids and it's not hard to see why. The dinky little structure is in the running to be the city's most delicious dessert, promising soft brownie or hazelnut sponge cake and silky sauces."

"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."

"Why: As with all of the other Ivy restaurants, this Manchester site is dripping in glitz and glamour, so breakfast here is as much about the surrounds as it is the food. Pastries and toast kick things off, while there are full English options for both vegetarians and meat eaters. If you fancy something a little more virtuous there is an extensive section dedicated to eggs and a light and healthy selection too, which features the likes of smoked salmon on rye bread and dairy free coconut yogurt with berries."

"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)"

"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."

"Formerly a bank built in 1910, featuring striking Neo-Jacobean architecture, Bank House Hathersage is now a stylish place to drink and dine in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Inspired by the Mediterranean but proudly local, here you’ll find a playful take on British cuisine, emphasising rustic, seasonal and sustainable ingredients. The dishes are designed for sampling and sharing, and are complemented by an iconic cocktail experience served in a vibrant atmosphere."

"Located in the picturesque village of Winster in the Peak District National Park is the grand country dwelling of Bank House."

"33 Oldham Street is a party palace that also happens to provide sustenance for the following morning. The Norther Quarter brunch restaurant will fill you up with English breakfasts, bacon sarnies and vegan hash. And come summer, head up to the roof terrace for cocktails and tanning."

"Which is why students need to order some pancakes from Cookies & Cream on Pancake Day!. Their famous Nutella pancake stacks are a very popular choice, featuring 5 mini pancakes, Nutella, strawberries and banana with icing sugar. They only cost £5.50, and there is a £12.50 minimum order limit, so why not treat your pal to a pancake stack, or take a gander at the other stuff on their menu!"

"Situated right on the Monsal Trail, the hot chocolates here topped with marshmallow and whipped cream are a perfect treat after a cycle. There’s also an outdoor play area, and a covered outdoor seating area. Free parking directly outside the cafe."

"The Pen and Pencil is a Northern Quarter bar and restaurant that sits on the corner of Hilton and Tariff Street in Manchester. “The bar and eatery is open seven days a week from 10am ’til late. We take our name and inspiration from the infamous mid-20th century bar on East 45th Street in New York’s ‘Steak Row’, which was popular with newspaper journalists and ad men – the original ‘Mad Men’.”  They offer a bottomless brunch that includes dishes such as Steak & Eggs (6oz marinated rump steak, hash browns, fried eggs, hollandaise), American Pancakes (Maple syrup vt / Fruit compote and mascarpone vt / Bacon, maple syrup and pecans) and Avocado & Feta (Avocado, sundried tomatoes, rocket, poached eggs, feta cheese, sriracha, toasted pistachio nuts, pumpkin seeds, almond flakes, grilled sourdough)."

"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."

"Looking for the best vegetarian and vegan brunches in Manchester?. You can count on The Pen & Pencil to come through with heaps of meat-free mouthfuls. That's not all though, as this Mad Men-inspired haunt offers a menu of American grub that's worth trying in the evening too."

"CFCCA reopens with a duo of exhibitions investigating and unpicking themes of belonging, identity and citizenship in a globalised and hyper-connected society. Housed in CFCCA’s Northern Quarter galleries, the exhibitions are just a few minutes’ walk from the Arndale Shopping Centre. Multiplicities in Flux brings together works by contemporary artists Grace Lau and Eelyn Lee in a dialogue around identity and belonging."

"Manchester's Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art will reopen both of its galleries on Wednesday May 19. Exhibitions Multiplicities in Flux and Autopsy of a Home, which originally opened in October, will be back until June 13. Booking is advised at cfcca.org.uk but walk-ups are welcome."
