Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Stockport

"Set in Manchester’s glam Spinningfields area with arguably the best views in the entire city, 20 Stories offers outdoor dining and drinking high up in the sky, with glass surrounding to allow for panoramic views. The rooftop terrace can be accessed all year round with a bar right outside for convenience and glorious views of the surrounding blue skies. On a grey day, enjoy the comfort of a canopy made of two-storey high trees, or gather near a fire pit on an evening for an ultra-cosy vibe."

"Manchester's highest bar and restaurant - recently named one of the best in Europe - is a must for the city's most glamorous residents. From the terrace bar at 20 Stories you can soak in views right across the city centre and all the way to the Peak District, all with a champagne cocktail in hand. Trees stand two storeys high, with al fresco fireplaces and an outdoor barbecue on site too."

"Perched on top of the shining glass beacon that is No. 1 Spinningfields, 20 Stories is a rooftop restaurant, grill, cocktail bar and rooftop terrace. And one of Manchester's true hot-spots. Equipped with real trees and comfy lounge furniture, the 20 Stories terrace comes with some amazing 360-degree views over the city skyline."

"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."

"In February 2020 BC (before Covid) we got all excited with a visit to their about-to-open second Manchester branch on Oxford Road but it remains closed as we pine for a cold beer and a hot bhaji on a long table more than ever. We’ll have to make do with Deliveroo for now. It’s all veggie, as existing fans will know, but vegans have plenty to love from the iconic vada pav to the famous broccoli, kale and onion bhajis."

"This laid-back Piccadilly street food favourite has canteen and booth-style seating, and bespoke artwork nodding to Manchester’s industrial heritage. The informal menu is entirely vegetarian: think spiced okra fries, or bundo chaat, a delightful mixture of crunchy samosa pastry, chickpeas, tamarind chutney and turmeric noodles. An excellent beer list showcases local breweries."

"What: Found in Ancoats, Elnecot is a neighbourhood bar and kitchen serving brunch, lunch and dinner which also benefits from an intimate streetside terrace that features a handful of tables. On the menu, you can expect to find a range of modern European dishes, ranging from mushrooms on toast for breakfast to baked prawns with gnocchi, hot sauce and bread at dinner. Prices are fair and staff are lovely too."

Indulgent flavours include red velvet and Nutella, white chocolate and raspberry, Oreo, fudge and honeycomb, Biscoff, and coconut chocolate."
