Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Heaton Norris

"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."

"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."

"With acclaim from national reviewers, Bundobust's street food and craft beer philosophy may seem simple, but it's hella tasty. The Manchester restaurant is a must for sharing vegan food; though don't end up squabbling over the bhel puri - a mix of pastry, peas and tamarind chutney."

"Albert’s Schloss, 27 Peter Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M2 5QR - Visit now. A self-confessed ‘bohemian pleasure palace’ taking over the ground floor of established music venue the Albert Hall. The ornate building is a former Wesleyan Chapel built over a century ago."

"A post shared by Albert’s Schloss (@albertsschloss) on Feb 22, 2020 at 12:00am PST. For crêpe lovers, Albert’s Schloss has you sorted this Tuesday. Available for one day only, tuck into their crêpes filled with house-made chocolate praline sauce and preserved blood orange slices, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream."

"Manchester's first Bavarian bier palace, cook haus and bakery is a cavernous space which sees Pilsner Urquell served straight from huge shiny tanks, while meat comes in the form of steak, schnitzel, curry or bratwurst."

"Oxford Road’s hotel-turned-bar and restaurant The Refuge might not be top of your list when looking for no-money fun in Manchester, but head to its secluded and spacious back room and you’ll find pool tables and table football – both of which can be enjoyed for free. All you need to provide is a contender and a will to win."

"The Refuge is one of the most beautiful restaurants in the entire Manchester. The entrance is stunning and the overall environment is great. I also liked the menu – it seemed pretty unique with a lot of small plates from all around the world."

"Winning small plate fusion in an iconic and glamorous setting. Housed in Manchester’s iconic The Refuge Assurance Company dating back to 1858, this DJ-run restaurant and bar is large and sassy."

Whether you want to get glammed up and gorgeous for your big night out or melt away that tension after a hard week at work, this place is your perfect spa escape."

" Set in the lush Malmaison Hotel in the very heart of Manchester, near Piccadilly Station and Gardens, Smoak Bar & Grill is a feast for the senses ..." Read our full review"

"Although Northern Quarter regulars may have already sampled the delights of Smithfield Social with its roadside terrace, not many have seen the interior yet. Smithfield Social, a joint venture from Jobe Ferguson and Anthony Fielden of TNQ, and Liam Fray of The Courteeners, has taken over the old Teacup Kitchen site on Thomas Street. It's been transformed into a smart all-day dining destination, inspired by Liam's favourite hangouts in the Lower East Side of Manhattan."

"Quite possibly Manchester's most magnificent dining room, Grand Pacific is based in the historic, grade II* listed Reform Club at the top of King Street. Once you make your way up the oak staircase, you'll find an Asian-influenced menu of seafood, salads and steaks and a signature cocktail served inside a golden pineapple. For those celebrating during daylight hours, there's a range of high teas to choose from, with the option to upgrade them to include champagne, sparkling wine, Chandon rosé or prosecco infused with tea."

"You would be forgiven for forgetting you were in Central Manchester at all with this beautiful building. Grand Pacific is set in a historic space, and is themed around the tropics with high vaulted ceilings contrasted against golden, leaf chandeliers. Food is equally as unique, with everything from a Korean hot plate through to an Asian-inspired high tea."

"Enjoy the tinkling sounds of a baby grand piano as you wine and dine in the breathtaking settings of what once was Manchester’s Old Reform club. Dishes blend flavours from exotic places with English classics as well as elegant 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."

"Located on John Dalton Street, The Restaurant Bar and Grill is known for its mouthwatering menu of steaks that come sourced from Aberdeen, Argentina and Canada. With a swanky roof terrace, this place is perfect for a romantic alfresco date night."

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

"Inspired by Asian street food classics, the casual dining style of Tampopo makes for a more than humble meal in the city. Serving a mixture of Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese, Malaysian and Japanese-inspired dishes, this place will take you on a cross-country trip without the air fare."

"This small shop on buzzy Tib Street is jam-packed with bottles, cans and kegs of beers from Manchester, as well as from the UK and across the globe. Brews from the inner city include neon-packaged Runaway Brewery (smoked porter, summer saison, American brown ale), Track Brewing Co. (visit its weekly brew tap events under the arches of Picadilly), and Cloudwater, which has gained a global reputation for itself over the past few of years. The friendly staff sure know their porters from their DIPAs, so make sure you pick their brains."

"Based in the heart of the Northern Quarter, Beermoth is a unique brewery compared to the others on this list as this one has two shops. One in the Northern Quarter and the other in Manchester city centre. The shop in the city centre is a belgian-style beer cafe which offers beer, food, coffee in a relaxing environment."

"There’s a lot to explore in the 109 acres that make up this South Manchester park. Utterly steeped in history, the park has not one, not two, but three listed buildings on its grounds, including the spectacular Wythenshawe Hall. This timber-framed Tudor structure was the home of the Tatton family for many centuries."

"Prestwich Forest Park consists of four smaller parks which make up 200 acres of woodlands: Philips Park, Drinkwater Park, Waterdale, and Prestwich. These parks can be heavily wooded (particularly Drinkwater), so it’s a beautiful place to spend a day away from the noise of town. Exploring the woods can be an enlightening experience, so long as you take care while wandering amongst the broad-leaved trees."
