Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Whitefield

"D&D London group’s all-day restaurant, bar and grill, 20 Stories, on the 19th floor of the No1 Spinningfields building in central Manchester. The modern British menu in the main restaurant showcases local produce, with the majority sourced within a 50-mile radius of the city. Herdwick lamb sits on potato gnocchi and chanterelle mushrooms, poached John Dory is served with a smart langoustine velouté and white asparagus, and butter-poached salsify is topped with burnt leeks and parsnip purée."

"Manchester’s highest – and possibly finest – restaurant, bar and grill. D&D restaurant group’s flagship Manchester restaurant, 20 Stories was the opening of 2018. Floor to ceiling windows (and a huge, outdoor terrace, the same size as the entire restaurant floor), afford breathtaking views of the city and surrounding countryside, while the menu riffs on Hawksmoor’s luxury steakhouse concept."

"This sky-high bistro takes fine dining to new heights, literally. 20 Stories is a modern British restaurant specialising in refined dishes, comfort food classics and elegant cocktails to wash everything down, plus the impressive views of the city below really round off the experience."

"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."

"This vegetarian Indian street food restaurant has plenty of options for vegans, such as onion and kale bhajis, vegan Vada Pav and Tarka Dhal. Available to order on Deliveroo from the Northern Quarter restaurant."

"Best Dish: Beef fillet and caramel soy with shitake and asparagus. Not strictly Chinese, but Tattu does have a mod-Chinese slant inspired by the strong conceptual restaurants found on America's west coast. Think sleek black lacquered furnishings and private booths around a giant cherry blossom tree."

"A very special spot standing proud in the centre of Spinningfields, The Ivy consists of three charming floors – one of which is completely decked out in the most spectacular, Far Eastern-inspired decor. And the nods don’t end there. The menu is completely inspired by Asia, too, taking inspiration from all corners of the continent when curating their menu."

"The Ivy Spinningfields in Manchester is a multi-faceted venue, offering several floors of beautiful settings and tasty food and drinks. Apart from ground floor Ivy Brasserie and second floor Ivy Asia, the true gem is found at the very top, with the Ivy Roof Garden. Very colorful and very lush, the spacious rooftop really deserves its 'garden' epithet."

"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."

"This modern tapas bar is in neighbouring Salford, but if you find yourself on the west side of Manchester city centre (Castlefield, Spinningfields, Deansgate), it is well worth the 10-15 minute walk across the border and down Chapel Street to Porta’s, housed in a former bank. The rugged, flavour-packed Spanish dishes are underpinned by impeccable sourcing and quiet kitchen ingenuity. Picos de Europa blue cheese with caramelised walnuts and honey is revelatory, while regulars, such as seared, acorn-fed Iberico pork with mojo verde or broccoli with romesco, are reliable bangers."

"Tapas bar Porta started life in Altrincham, before setting up in Salford too and has been winning rave reviews in both locations. BBC Good Food praises Porta favourites that “conjure lingering flavours from apparently simple ingredients."

"This independent tapas bar began its journey in Altrincham but now also boasts a second site here in Salford, pictured above. Focusing on homemade food and great ingredients, go for the relaxed atmosphere and stay for the food."

"30 - 31ST JULY: STREET FOOD TAKEOVER - OSAKA LOCALReiko will be taking over our kitchen from 4pm and serving her award winning Japanese food. Keep an eye on our socials for menu details.Wholesome food."

"Historic kitchen & pleasure gardens with ponds, paved pathways & a Victorian greenhouse. Address : Witherwin Avenue Grappenhall, South Warrington WA4 3DS, United Kingdom"

"Treat the family to a day out at Brockholes, boasting the UK’s first floating visitor village and the 250-acre Lancashire Wildlife Trust nature reserve. Whilst you’re ambling along the River Ribble and the nearby lakes, keep your eyes peeled for wildlife. What’s more, you’ll be able to visit year-round with free admission!"

"Behind the Arts Centre in Salford Quays is an outlet mall with savings of up to 70% at 90+ stores on two floors. This is the only factory outlet mall in Greater Manchester, offering discounts in fashion, interior design, home appliances, sportswear, cosmetics and much more.
