Best Dinner Places to Eat in Holcombe

"20 Stories is one of Manchester's most romantic rooftop restaurants, with stunning views and equally impressive interiors filled with botanical touches. As for the menu, expect brassiere-style British classics with a focus on fresh and seasonal ingredients."

"Indian street food joint Bundobust will be serving special dosas all week, including its year-round classic masala dosa (rice pancakes filled with cauliflower and potato). There's a sweet special of a mango and rose dosa that's served with a sweet cardamom yoghurt, salted mango and pomegranate seeds. The sweet dosa is available until March 1 for £5, or today you can get the savoury and sweet dosa in a combo deal for £10."

"Decked out with kitsch Bollywood paraphernalia, join one of the long, shared dining tables in Bundobust’s basement dining room and prepare for an Indian street food feast. It’s hard to go wrong with the menu - but the Vada Pav burger was recently listed among the best in the world, and it's on the menu for just £5. 61 Piccadilly, Manchester M1 2AG / bundobust.com"

"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."

"Located in the heart of the Spinningfields business district, Tattu Manchester is an Instagrammer’s dream. Think penumbral lighting, body art-inspired cocktails and a full-size cherry blossom tree with hand-sewn silk petals. You’d be forgiven for expecting such opulent surroundings to outshine the food."

"Once we saw pictures from Tattu while researching places to eat in Manchester, we both knew we had to eat there. And boy am I glad we did. We had such an incredible dining experience at Tattu."

"The Ivy has long-reigned as one of the most beautiful restaurants not only in Manchester but across the UK. Offering up three floors in the Manchester venue – each with a completely different experience – the restaurant is unbeatable if you’re after a lively date night, with a fantastic atmosphere flowing from floor to floor. On the ground floor, you’ll find a stunning, floral brasserie, the second – a decadent, oriental-inspired Asian restaurant, and on the rooftop – a bright, summery floral terrace also serving the varied brasserie menu."

"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's roof garden is one of the most glamorous places in the city, perfect for celeb-watching. Opulent fabrics, masses of plants and a retractable roof (plus essential heaters) make it an luxurious hangout in all weathers. You can order from a huge menu of food, including afternoon teas and brunches."

"The much-loved Wheatley Arms (which was saved from demolition by local residents) is a dog-friendly pub with rooms near the pretty Yorkshire spa town of Ilkley. The hotel opened in the mid-19th century as a coach house to serve the new Ben Rhydding Hydropathic Centre (since demolished), and the gabled, stone-built hotel has a homely, lived-in feel with big bay windows, Inglenook fireplaces and reupholstered furniture picked up at auctions. The hotel’s 12 individually designed rooms (a mix of traditional and more modern décor) are arranged over three floors and feature bold patterned wallpaper, sleigh beds and glass chandeliers."

"The Ale Inventory at The Botanist MediaCityUK features Munich Gold, Daura Damm, Asahi Super Dry, Hells Lager and Alhambra Reserva 1925. And on the cocktail menu, you'll find a range of inventive cocktails inspired by British flavours. Drinks include English Mojito made from Bombay Dry Gin, apple liqueur, vanilla syrup, cucumber and fresh mint with apple and lime juices; Smoked Birch Old Fashioned made from Money shoulder whisky, Freya Birch spirit, fir tree liqueur, orange bitters and demerara sugar; and Poppy and Pomegranate Martini consisting of Ciroc red berry vodka, poppy and raspberry liqueur, basil syrup, pomegranata and lemon juice."

"A ‘secret garden of food and drink’ set in the centre of MediaCityUK, The Botanist is opening its terrace for bookings and walk-ins from 15th April. From kebabs to bottomless brunches, along with gorgeous views of the Salford Quays, The Botanist has it all."

"The Botanist have a fresh new offering for brunch that you can upgrade to bottomless brunch if you would like (and what’s not to like?). You choose a dish from six different sections of the menu – each section has three options."

"This nightlife favourite has undergone an extensive £200k refurbishment while we've all been stuck in multiple lockdowns, and will reopen with new owners. Throwing open the doors to drinkers, diners and ravers on Friday July 23, Joshua Brookes will welcome Darius Syrossian on its big reopening night. The refurb includes the addition of a permanent site for Cubanitos, a street food business that's travelled to festivals across the country."

"Joshua Brookes is an iconic Manchester venue that plays host to all kinds of nights and has always championed the local underground scene. The venue has just undergone a massive refurbishment with a hefty price tag so that its face can match its legendary reputation. Tickets are always fairly priced and artists are regularly heavy hitters."

"Joshua Brooks, 106 Princess Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 6NG. Long-established Manchester bar and nightclub, Joshua Brooks is just off student hotspot Oxford Road. Open until 4am on the weekends with regular DJ-led club nights."

"You may recognise The Salford Lads’ Club from the famous cover of The Smiths’ hugely popular 1986 album The Queen is Dead, with a bouffant-haired Morrissey and co stood outside its doors. Now you’re in Manchester, you’d be silly not to venture out to this same spot for a Smiths selfie with your fellow travellers. A popular venue for Manc-music fans; head inside to learn more about the band and to buy exclusive merchandise."

"This one is a bit of a trek from the Manchester city center (we went here as part of a private black cab taxi tour of the city), but it is a must-visit spot for music fans. Devotees of The Smiths come from all over the world to recreate their famous photo take in front of the Salford Lads Club for the inside sleeve of their 1986 album, The Queen is Dead. Go have your own Morrissey moment!"

"Located a 20 minute walk away from the Peel Park campus, Salford Lads' Club was established in 1903 as a purpose built club for boys. The club was famously featured on the cover for the The Smiths album 'The Queen is Dead'."

"There’s an incredible history behind Pendle Hill, a Bronze Age burial site. This breathtaking landmark maintains a strong association with witchcraft thanks to the witch trials of 1612. For walkers, access to the hill is most commonly from nearby village of Barley."

"What: Family favourite Hard Rock Cafe may be best known for the rock ‘n’ roll paraphernalia that lines its walls, but we’re more interested in the buzzy streetside terrace at this Manchester outpost. A place for calorie conscious dining this is not, so throw caution to the wind and order the likes of a stacked barbecue bacon cheeseburger and a hot fudge brownie topped with a mound of whipped cream and a glace cherry. Where: Exchange Square Manchester, M4 2BS"

"About: What could be more fun than rocking out with the kids?. For families who love great music, delicious food and good times the Hard Rock is the go-to restaurant!. This rock'n'roll inspired venue serves up ample portions of authentic American Diner cuisine, with a hearty helping of rock memorabilia and juke box tunes on the side."

"20/07/2021: Been going to this place for many years as food is good but service is going down massively. Waited for 15 minutes for somebody to take order as people at front were just chatting with their friends. Finally gave up and went to Nusret Shawarma."

"19/04/2021: nowNEWSaw this restaurant on BBC 1 where Ainsley Harriot & Len Goodman visited. I was not disappointed. Tried the Lamb on the Bone, by far the best in the UK."

"Alongside their Beyond Meat burger, an aromatic Thai green curry and a 100% plant-based BLT, The Cosy Club have an extra-special vegan fish and chips option. Made from a battered fillet of seaweed-wrapped tofu, the dish was awarded with ‘best vegan fish’ at the 2019 PETA awards."

"Cosy Clubs serve up relaxed dining, drinking and lounging in a really special setting with a dash of nostalgia. We love the big squishy leather sofas!. Cosy Club has an extensive Brunch menu that’s served until 5pm (so you won’t be too late!)."

"For the highest stacks you can manage, head to the Cosy Club in the Corn Exchange where they’ll be dishing up piles of buttermilk pancakes at £1.25 each. Toppings range from wholesome banana and fruit compote to cream and chocolate."
