Best Dinner Places to Eat in Wainstalls

"Set in Manchester’s glam Spinningfields area with arguably the best views in the entire city, 20 Stories offers outdoor dining and drinking high up in the sky, with glass surrounding to allow for panoramic views. The rooftop terrace can be accessed all year round with a bar right outside for convenience and glorious views of the surrounding blue skies. On a grey day, enjoy the comfort of a canopy made of two-storey high trees, or gather near a fire pit on an evening for an ultra-cosy vibe."

"When we wanted to enjoy some cocktails at a rooftop bar one night, some quick research had us landing on 20 Stories. It turned out to be a great decision – 20 Stories was a beautiful oasis of a restaurant, and its rooftop terrace had the greatestview of Manchester. The terrace was like lounge with heating lamps, a few bungalows and we had such a fun time sitting out there in the skies."

"This Indian eatery first opened in Leeds but has now expanded to become a chain of three, including one branch located in Manchester’s Piccadilly. Hidden down a set of stairs in a basement off an unassuming city centre street, this place might be hard to find, but it’s worth searching for. Most dishes are vegan, including the newly launched for 2020 vada pav burger, which consists of a deep-fried mashed potato ball, red and green chutneys and deep-fried (spicy) green chilli, all in a vegan-friendly bun."

"Bundobust is another one of these underdogs which is completely turning the concept of ‘fine cuisine’ entirely on its head. No longer does good food feel the need to be served on white table clothes on fine Bone China and washed down with a 2005 Saint Emilion Grand Cru. Nowhere teaches us this lesson better than Bundobust with its 100% vegetarian Indian street food served in paper trays, paper cups and with as much craft beer as you can pour down your gullet."

"In February 2020 BC (before Covid) we got all excited with a visit to their about-to-open second Manchester branch on Oxford Road but it remains closed as we pine for a cold beer and a hot bhaji on a long table more than ever. We’ll have to make do with Deliveroo for now. It’s all veggie, as existing fans will know, but vegans have plenty to love from the iconic vada pav to the famous broccoli, kale and onion bhajis."

"What: The sixth floor of Leeds' Trinity Centre might not be where you would expect to find a brilliant brunch, but D&D's Angelica serves exactly that. This isn't the place to go if you're looking for a slap-up brunch as this is very much a stylish restaurant rather than a casual café. However, if you are in the market for something a little bit classy, Angelica's menu features everything from a crayfish and brown butter crumpet to buttermilk banoffee pancakes.Where: Level 6, Trinity Centre, 70 Boar Lane, LS1 6HW"

You can get popular classics like Chicken Pad Kee Mow and Beef Panang Curry, but they also have a wide and varied meat-free menu which includes Tofu Thai Red Curry, Sum Tam Thai Salad and Mixed Veg Pad Thai."

"This local favourite is out in the Headingley ’burbs, but it’s worth the trek. From the outside it looks like a takeaway, but don’t be fooled. Inside you’ll find a few rows of tables, Thai wood carvings and low lighting – a fuss-free environment that allows the food to shine."
