"An intimate bar, a handsome dining room, impeccable service and knockout steaks and seafood - Hawksmoor offers a consistently excellent dining experience, so it's a failsafe for Valentine's Day. Based inside an old Victorian courthouse, the Deansgate restaurant is an impressive but understated setting for a date with its tiled walls, parquet floors and comfy leather chairs. The larger cuts of steak like chateaubriand, porterhouse, T-bone or bone-in prime rib are made for sharing with your Valentine."
"If you like a good steak, immediately book a table at Hawksmoor, a beloved British steakhouse with a few outposts throughout the country. The menu has many options, including for vegetarians, but the rib-eye is the way to go (especially if you add the bone marrow gravy). Hawksmoor is also known for its massive Sunday roast, available from lunchtime on Sundays, and it's the sort of spot where you can pop in for a burger at the bar or go all out for a special occasion."
"Opening on Deansgate in 2015, the first Hawksmoor steakhouse outside of London is a confident affair. Well sourced steak and attention to detail have created a place like no other."
"Cicchetti, Fumo and San Carlo itself are all wonderful choices for a special romantic evening. Cicchetti has a lovely marble bar that you can sit at whilst you nibble on small plates, whilst Fumo’s beautiful art deco interior is the perfect setting for a special date. And for lovers of traditional Italian food, you can’t go wrong at San Carlo."
"San Carlo is Manchester’s most famous and, some say, best Italian restaurant. Run by the Distefano family, it’s said to have one of the largest turnovers in the UK. It’s also the place to be papped and there’s usually a bank of photographers outside to prove the point."
"There are now more than 40 Jamie’s Italian restaurants, but the one closest to home is on King Street.in the city centre."
"A brand new “all day dining and drinking” outdoor terrace is opening up at Ducie Street Warehouse this week, and while bookings are being taken, walk-in service is also expected, so you can find menus, opening times and more information via the website here. You can also find more information about some of the events happening here."
"Ice Shack is an all-vegan dessert parlour that offers a nice treat for all people that have sweet tooth but are also on a special diet. Established in 2016 and rooted for a family’s love of desserts, they make way to share their enthusiasm and love with other people particular those under a vegan diet. Offering 0% dairy, they use a range of alternatives including truffles to offer a sweet and nice treat."
"New in town and bringing the flavours of the tropics to Manchester, Lazy Sundae wanted to introduce the city to some of the flavours of the Far East, shedding the typical mainstream ice cream flavours for the likes of Milo, Taro and Vietnamese coffee. The idea was to bridge the gap between the owner’s heritage and the mainstream market here in the UK, bringing a more accessible approach to popular Asian desserts such as Vietnamese ice cream floats, pineapple bao ice cream sandwiches and more.
