Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Woodhouses

"What: Rooftop restaurants are a rarity in Manchester and rooftop restaurants with outdoor space even more so. Praise be for 20 Stories then, which offers a sleek and expansive outdoor terrace which benefits from sweeping views of the city. Something of a sun trap on sunnier days, guests here can top up their tans while tucking into a homely terrace menu which includes the likes of a fish finger sandwich, shepherd’s pie and a bao bun stuffed with Korean fried chicken.Where: No 1 Spinningfields, 1 Hardman Square, M3 3EB"

"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."

"Available all week long, Bundobust’s pancake offering sees them put a sweet twist on the traditional dosa. These mango puree and rosewater rice pancakes are £5 and come served with shrikhand (a sweetened cardamom yoghurt), mango ras, pistachio, and pomegranate."

"Indian street-food specialists Bundobust have ventured across The Pennines to open this spacious Piccadilly branch. Inside, seating is canteen-style with the enticing menu of snacks and sharing plates being equally informal, and entirely vegetarian too."

"One of Manchester’s most beautiful spots for Japanese food, subterranean venue Australasia is much-loved for its incredible Australian dishes, infused with Japanese and Indonesian influences. Think oysters, Sashimi and Tempura dishes – with Teriyaki beef rump dishes, octopus and many more fresh fish offerings. The menu is absolutely huge, with a wide variety of Nigiri, Tempura, Sashimi and California Rolls to choose from if sushi’s what you’re after."

"Since opening in 2011, Australasia has become one of the city’s favourite restaurants - known for being the restaurant concealed down a flight of stairs. It's a place of relaxed elegance with an impressive menu offering Indonesian and Japanese influences. Statistics: @australasia_mcr - 21k followers / #australasiamanchester - 1,469 posts"

"Enter through the curious glass pyramid, down a rabbit hole into the subterranean restaurant. The décor here is like the dress code of a flash nightclub: there’s a strict ‘no colours’ policy. White, accented by more white, bare brick and a splash of cream."
