Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Knowl Hill

"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."

"There's no doubt about it, walking into Bundobust is sure to bring your day an unbridled amount of joy - as well as plenty of incredible Indian dishes. Serving a creative and modern take on Indian street food, Bundobust has rapidly become a favourite in the city. And it's easy to see why."

"One of the most traditional Instagrammable places in Manchester is Albert Schloss. Albert Schloss has a fabulous storefront decorated with Wisteria and I can guarantee you, that you won’t miss the restaurant, as there is always a group of people taking photos of this incredibly beautiful Instagrammable restaurant in Manchester. Albert Schloss is a German restaurant as you might guess from the name, so expect the German menu and some really great desserts."

"A Manchester staple, Albert's Schloss known for traditional German food and pilsner beers. While many people flock to this restaurant for dinner and live music, you can't pass up the chance to try their breakfast. Their Bavarian-inspired dishes made fresh in their cook haus may be the centrepiece of the meal."

"This Bavarian bier palace offers a hearty brunch menu as well as all-day favourites such as steak, schnitzel, currywurst or bratwurst, with fresh unpasteurised Pilsner Urquell served straight from the tank. Breads, pretzels, cruffins and kronuts are baked daily in the in-house bakery."

"Housed inside the beautifully grand Principle hotel on Oxford Road, the Refuge is one of Manchester’s most stylish hangouts. The clientele ranges from touring rock stars to local fashion bloggers, all sipping on delicious cocktails and relaxing among the beautiful décor. If you want to really nail that Instagram shot, take a seat in the winter garden and ask your companion to photograph you beside one of the fairy-light lit trees."

"The stunning transformation of the former restaurant at the Palace Hotel (now the Principal) by DJ duo The Unabombers as The Refuge in 2016 is heaped with praise in the guide. It says: “The duo are experts at creating venues that are simultaneously hip, stylish and unpretentious in a generously northern way. The Refuge is as much a destination for a family Sunday roast as it is a late-night cool kids’ hang-out."

"The elegant venue's menu features a generous helping of vegan options, from breakfast and lunch to evening meals and small plates. Their unique and flavourful menu can be accompanied with a selection of vegan-friendly beers, gins, and cocktails."

"There's a slightly different theme at Plau, which is all about sharingrather than ordering food specifically for you. The menu offers vegetarian orvegan options on many of their staple dishes. Findthem along Friargate, Preston."

"Blawd bakery made a name for itself making some of the best cakes and doughnuts in Manchester. Previously working from a basement kitchen in Common, the superstar bakers have expanded with the launch of their first cafe, SiOP SHOP. Owned by Iwan Roberts and Lucy Jackson, the bakery and café on Tib Street is set to launch soon, serving a range of breakfast and lunch dishes alongside their famous bakes."

"By far one of the Northern Quarter’s most unique hangouts in all its brightly-coloured glory, you can pop by Siop Shop this weekend to get yourself that quick caffeine fix, and perhaps a sweet doughnut treat too if that takes your fancy. 53 Tib Street, Manchester M4 1LS. You can find more information via the Siop Shop website here."

"Dessert fans visiting Manchester shouldn’t have without trying the best doughnuts in town. Mine was filled with blackcurrant cheesecake (minus the base) and was probably the best £2 I’ve ever spent. Where: SiOP SHOP cafe on Tibb Street and at the Makers Market held in the Northern Quater on the second Sunday of each month."

"The Trafford Ecology Park is tucked away in the industrial Trafford Park behind an oil depot and is a registered Biological Important site and a true oasis of wildlife. The park is spread across an area of eleven acres and is a true delight for a nature enthusiast."
