Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Marple Bridge

"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."

"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!"

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"Once we saw pictures from Tattu while researching places to eat in Manchester, we both knew we had to eat there. And boy am I glad we did. We had such an incredible dining experience at Tattu."

"Another special spot in Spinningfields suitable for both celebrations or just a boujee Tuesday – The Ivy’s roof terrace is stunningly decorated, with plus velvet furniture, fire pits for warmth and grand trees throughout setting a botanical theme for its brasserie offering. Most of the space is for diners, however, there’s a lovely bar within the terrace, too, where you can perch up for a drink or two. The Ivy, The Pavilion, Byrom St, M3 3HG."

"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)"

"Not satisfied being one of the most gorgeous restaurants in Manchester, The Ivy Spinningfields is offering up Insta-ready puds to match the surroundings. A long-standing feature on their dessert menu, the Chocolate Bombe is a thing of beauty. A hard chocolate shell is turned molten by a hot caramel sauce to reveal a delectable vanilla ice cream and honeycomb core within."

"Why not punctuate your shopping trip and enjoy a break at Massarella’sRestaurant. Start the day with a traditional English breakfast, available until 11.30am. Light bites are available throughout the day, choose from a wide range including soup of the day with rustic bread croutons, hot toasted sandwiches and Paninis or oven baked jacket potatoes with a selection of fillings."

"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."

"Offering tables of up to six inside their Castlefield bar, guests can take advantage of £10 tickets, which include a free pitcher of Heineken or Coors. All matches are being screened, and the venue also airs live football outside of the championship, too. When the match is finished, enjoy the bar’s huge outdoor space, which is packed full of tables so guests can soak up the sun with a beer."

"If you were worried about not being able to find canal-side dining in Manchester, never fear, we’ve found another!. Barca offers lovely views of the canal from Catalan Square, with a new extra-large barbecue luxury seating. In addition to the high-quality food and drink, they’ve also been known to host live music outside, so you may never leave."

Clowes Park, also known as Broughton Hall or Broughton Park, has a large maintained lake with numerous viewing points, as well as a small area of woodland.

"This 13th-century church about a mile north of Macclesfield is the fourth church on this site. But what’s unusual is that the third church is still here, out among Medieval yew trees. There’s a Norman Romanesque chapel in the churchyard, dating to the 12th century, with semi-circular door and window arches and weathered but visible tympanum relief and lozenge patterns in the archivolts."

"At the top, look inside St Michael’s Church, which commands the Market Place and can be seen across the town. Although the church was almost completely rebuilt at the start of the 20th century it is highly regarded for its two historic chapels. Here you’ll encounter what is considered to be Cheshire’s richest collection of alabaster effigies, produced in the 16th and 17th centuries for the Legh and Savage families."
