Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Preston

"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."

"Manchester’s highest – and possibly finest – restaurant, bar and grill. D&D restaurant group’s flagship Manchester restaurant, 20 Stories was the opening of 2018. Floor to ceiling windows (and a huge, outdoor terrace, the same size as the entire restaurant floor), afford breathtaking views of the city and surrounding countryside, while the menu riffs on Hawksmoor’s luxury steakhouse concept."

"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."

"The home of Indian veggie burgers, paneer tikka and egg burjhis, Bundobust is all about good food. But drinks don't go unnoticed either, with a cracking selection of craft beer for all palates. We're talking cask ales, chai cider and rotational keg lines pouring different kinds of brews."

"A vegetarian and predominantly gluten-free restaurant, Bundobust is serving some of Manchester's best cheap eats. For just £6, you can munch on a bhaji butty, vada pav veggie burger and raghda pethis mushy pea cakes, with a wide choice of cocktails to top it off."

"One of the most impressive puddings in Manchester, this adorable option from luxe Chinese restaurant Tattu was designed to be eyed-up as much as to be eaten. The chocolate pagoda has become a regular fixture on Instagram grids and it's not hard to see why. The dinky little structure is in the running to be the city's most delicious dessert, promising soft brownie or hazelnut sponge cake and silky sauces."

"We already know that Tattu is a swoon-worthy date night bar in Manchester, but did you know this place serves a quirky cocktail featuring a mini cherry blossom tree inside it?. Sip on this and plenty of other unique mixes while grazing on Pan-Asian plates for the ultimate experience."

"A garden oasis nestled in Hardman Square, book a table for up to six guests (subject to availability) for the beautiful covered and heated ground floor terrace at The Ivy Spinningfields from 12 April and watch the world go by as you savour their seasonal specials and show-stopping serves. In addition, indoor reservations for the brasserie, roof terrace and glamorous late-night restaurant and bar, Ivy Asia, will be available from 17 May."

"The Ivy Spinningfields is ago-to quirky restaurant if you're after a night of sophisticated dining in a luxurious setting. With its patterned interiors, emerald green bar and picture perfect rooftop terrace, the venue serves a brasserie-style menu with handcrafted cocktails to match."

"From the ground floor brasserie serving all kinds of classic British dishes to the swanky Asian-inspired restaurant upstairs, the Ivy is the place to be. Not only are the interiors highly Instagrammable, but the food and drink selection is just as impressive."

"Serving the most delicious and well-portioned breakfast meals, their pancakes are a real highlight for guests. Stacked high with all the toppings, menu items include berries and cream, banoffee, peanut butter and bacon with maple syrup. Each stack includes three buttermilk pancakes, and there’s even vegan options available too!"

"Large pub on the outskirts of the town centre which focuses heavily on good value meals and a large screen television for watching Premier League football and other sports events. There is also a pub quiz on a Tuesday and Sunday evening from 9pm.". Read the full entry here"

"Unusually colourful (its orange banquettes and Perspex back-bar give it a look of a 1980s Top of the Pops set), this Dale Street tap-house serves a mix of quality guest beers (Wild Beer, Mikeller, Burning Sky), and Beatnikz’ hop-forward brews, such as I Smash Citra and Generation IPA. The weekday cask ale deals are notable (recently pie ‘n’ a pint £5, Mon/Tues), as is Beatnikz’s ability to bag high-profile guests for its meet-the-brewer events. For instance Arbor Ales and US star Modern Times. Pint from £3.70, beatnikzrepublic.com"

"Beatnikz microbrewery is located in a railway arch in the Green Quarter, and their taproom used to be too. But they closed it last year and moved to a shiny new bar in the Northern Quarter where they’ve just introduced a beer slushie machine. Head in to enjoy their core range of beers."

"Super stylish and situated within the Trafford area, Boombae is a salon that packs a punch – with super cool murals dotted around the venue that can only be described as ‘Instagrammable’. The salon specialises in hair extensions, so is perfect for anyone looking for a bit of a makeover to debut after months in lockdown, with facials, make-up, teeth whitening, nails and more on the menu if you’re looking for a bit of a pamper day. Boombae, 480 Chester Rd, Old Trafford, Stretford, M16 9HE."

"The Suites Hotel & Spa is based in Knowsley, about a half an hour drive from Liverpool city centre, making it an ideal stay for those who don’t want to be amongst the action of such a busy city. The spa here is one of a kind, hence why we think it’s one of the best spa hotels in Liverpool. It’s home to seven treatment rooms including a relaxation suite, Bollinger nail suite, thermal suite, an ice room, Rasul chamber and much more."

"The award-winning The Suites Hotel and Spa was recognised by the Good Spa Guide as offering outstanding luxury. This means you can pretty much rest assured that a spa day here will be great. There are over ninety different treatment options to choose from that focus on every emotion and issue, from deep relaxation and sleep to invigoration and tension release."
