Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Springhead

"Not only does it hold the title as Manchester's highest restaurant, but 20 Stories has also garnered acclaim for its locally-sourced eats. Dishes such as truffle risotto and grilled halibut with a pistachio crust are paired with an impressive wine list to make for a memorable evening."

"It's billed as Manchester's highest restaurant, boasting gorgeous views of the city below and matched with equally impressive interiors. 20 Stories is an excellent choice for dinner, and a small photoshoot in the botanical decor or among the outdoor foliage on the roof terrace."

"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."

"Decked out with kitsch Bollywood paraphernalia, join one of the long, shared dining tables in Bundobust’s basement dining room and prepare for an Indian street food feast. It’s hard to go wrong with the menu - but the Vada Pav burger was recently listed among the best in the world, and it's on the menu for just £5. 61 Piccadilly, Manchester M1 2AG / bundobust.com"

"The home of Indian veggie burgers, paneer tikka and egg burjhis, Bundobust is all about good food. But drinks don't go unnoticed either, with a cracking selection of craft beer for all palates. We're talking cask ales, chai cider and rotational keg lines pouring different kinds of brews."

"Bundobust is a huge beer hall serving craft ales in the heart of Manchester’s Piccadilly Gardens. It also happened to win Restaurant of the Year at the 2017 Manchester Food and Drink Festival awards, thanks to its stellar menu of Indian small plates."

"If you have never been to Tattu you will be getting Chinese food, but do not let visions of late night sweet and sour pork and MSG ridden spring rolls put you off- this is Chinese food like you have never had it before. Tattu delivers a contemporary approach to Chinese cuisine which is married with western flavours and techniques. Tattu wants to take you on a journey from East to West when you dine with them by showcasing a range of excellent dishes which are stylish, delicious and beautifully presented."

"With its famous cherry tree in permanent, soft pink bloom in the main dining room, Tattu makes a picture-perfect backdrop for a romantic meal for two. Its menu is also perfect for sharing, with a selection of dim sum and small plates including waygu dumplings with kimchi and spring onion, chicken truffle shumai, and chilli and sesame roasted scallops. Its cocktails are spectacular too - try the Samurai's Garden, a smoking carafe of gin, rose and tonic for two to share (£40)."

"Tattu delivers modern Chinese cuisine in a fabulously decorated venue. Cherry blossom trees fill the restaurant whilst traditional Chinese decor accentuate the walls. Small sharing plates as well as banquet-style set menus are available celebrating contemporary Chinese flavours."

"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)"

"One of Manchester's most glamorous destinations ever since it opened in 2018 has been The Ivy in Spinningfields. The swish restaurant and bar will be reopening its ground floor outdoor terrace from April 12. The space is both covered and heated, so it's perfect for Manchester's less-than-favourable weather."

"Magical rooftop bar and restaurant in central Manchester with the motto 'Drink and dine, rain or shine'. Set over three floors, the motto is extra true for the second floor large and more formal restaurant, that comes with an all year alfresco terrace and bar. Open from lunch through dinner, the restaurant and bar serves internationally inspired classics, where the charcoal grill is the main feature, along with a full page of different G&T's and well-crafted signature cocktails."

"Despite having the most unimaginative name in the city, The Restaurant Bar and Grill has held its own over the years as the city has changed unrecognisably around it. With a crowd-pleasing but creative menu featuring all the steak and seafood you'd expect, the "sky garden" was given a massive cash injection in 2012 and is always packed. It might well have the comfiest seats of all roof gardens in Manchester too."

"Address: Ridgefield House, 14 John Dalton St, Manchester M2 6JR. Phone number: 0161 839 1999. Price: £25 per person + price of brunch dish"

The indulgent sweet treats includes ice-cream shakes, milkshake, deep dish cookie pie and not forgetting the arrays of colourful cakes to satisfy all your heart’s cravings."

"The Great Northern branch of Home Sweet Home offers an afternoon tea with a difference. As well as a selection of loose leaf teas or coffees and a tier of mini open bagels with maple cured BLT and smoked salmon, there is also a tier of fresh churros. The warm Spanish style doughnuts are dusted with cinnamon sugar and Dreamcheese frosting and served with warm Nutella dip and fresh strawberries."

"A venue that’s been so successful it was recently extended to the premises above, Forge Bakehouse is legendary around the Abbeydale Road area. That’s in no small part thanks to its excellent baking standards. If you’re prepared to head a little outside the city centre, you won’t be disappointed for making the trip."

"A real local gem, the Forge Bakehouse sources its ingredients locally, with northern roasted coffee by the North Star Coffee Roasters, so you’ll be sure to get a taste of Yorkshire here. Coffee isn’t the only highlight either, they also serve a wide variety of food – including their signature granola; yum!"

I Opening Times: Public open days run on Sundays and Bank Holidays during April and September."

"A tremendous mixture of styles, Adlington Hall was founded at the end of the 15th century and then reworked in the 18th century. So while the north and east facades have romantic black and white timber framing the south and west wings are brick built, with a solemn Palladian portico. Adlington is hired out for weddings, but on Sundays between April and October the house and gardens are open to visitors."
