Local farm to table in Manchester

“Grounded in the North went down a storm at PlannerFest. There was lots of praise for the quality of the brews and cake! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.”

“Fabulous afternoon with Clare and her alpaca buddies. We all had so much fun and Clare made it a really interesting afternoon. Loved meeting her beautiful sheep too. Had a very jolly time would definitely recommend a visit”

“Lovely food at reasonable price. Quick service and comfortable.”

“I have visited the shop a few times now and absolutely love it. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. I have bought personalised gifts for a friends birthday, Mother’s Day and gifts for my children for Easter. These gifts have all been to a high standard and fantastic value for money ☺️”

“A Great farm shop, lovely quality meat, worth a visit just for the sausages.”

“Would 100% recommend. Really good value for money, premises and bedroom/bathroom/showers all spotless. Bed sheets clean and very obviously freshly dressed. Garden beautiful. Just wished our plans gave us the opportunity to enjoy the premises for longer. Would definitely recommend opting in for the breakfast, fantastic value for money and the owner was very keen to cater for personal or dietary needs. Very welcoming.”

“Amazing food, so much thought, work and care had gone into each course. The flavours were amazing and they clearly use only the best produce. Dietary requirements were catered for without any bother. One of the best meals I have ever had! Super friendly and knowledgeable staff! I honestly couldn't fault this restaurant , lovely ambience. I definitely recommend this place. Just go, you will not be disappointed! I can't wait to return!”

“Too quality meat, veg and cakes. Little black tiny lamb to pet. Goats and cows. Friendly service.”

“Come for the views, stay for the burger. We went for lunch on a nice Saturday. The views are amazing and the food was even better. We ordered the cheesy cow burger and it was outstanding. The cheese and onion fritter just oozed melted cheese. The beef is top quality. Absolutely stuffed. Had some superb ice cream after. Rum & Raisin and espresso for me, chocolate for my wife. Will definitely be back.”

“Had a very tasty lunch here with 4 friends -chicken in a creamy sauce. Can recommend. The Baileys hot chocolate was also much enjoyed”

“Stuart gives his whole life to rescuing Animals in need! At his stage in life, to still be working tirelessly, with very little help is to be admired. Please support if you can, donations are always welcomed.”

“Superb family pub, fantastic staff, great deals on drinks and great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend a visit. I will surly be back soon!”

“Great service from pleasant and helpful staff. Lots of home made pastas, pies and salad items and a great range of fruit and veg. Please support your local independent shops.”

“From booking in the staff were friendly the manager Leigh made sure we were seated and had everything we needed to start our visit. Our table server was Geoff was pleasant and great with the 5 children giving colouring sheets and crayons to do while we waited for the last guest to arrive. And our carvery chef Mike was so patient with the kids as they decided which meat they wanted . We love going to Ash Tree Farm it's always a pleasure and clean plates too.”

“Our dogs have been using this kennel for the past 3 years, always well looked after.”

“The food is wholesome, great sized portions, very tasty, staff are lovely, prices are very reasonable, going for Christmas dinner, Menu for Christmas lunch is really excellent!! Book early xx”

“Found this little gem yesterday when visiting the area and stopped for lunch. Wow, unexpected delight. The ambiance was friendly and welcoming and the server was really polite and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend.”

“This brewery outlet and restaurant has a pleasant green setting in Old Glossop with outdoor and indoor seating, helpful staff and imaginative options on the menu, including vegan and veggie ones - a lot of the options are light bites rather than full meals, and of course there are the various house beers. The pictured jerk chicken dish really was divine and as you can see also nicely presented. I liked the chef's dedication and enthusiasm. It's worth going to try some dishes that are a bit different, even if you're not big on beer. On that topic, I haven't the heart to deduct a star for it, but it is a shame that no alcohol-free beer is on offer, and secondly, I once ordered a home-brewed 'Hefeweizen' which is a German-style wheat beer cloudy with yeast in it, and it was served lukewarm. Being firstly German and secondly a refreshing summer drink this type of beer absolutely needs to be consumed properly chilled!”

“Lovely coffee and friendly staff. The cakes looked delicious so next time I am gonna try one!!”

“Beautiful new addition to the villages, we needed a coffee shop like this! Gorgeous interior, friendly staff (very accomodating of my iced coffee request on a lovely sunny day in saddleworth), delicious healthy food options that are a refreshing change from the usual village coffee shop offerings. Also I absolutely love all the diary alternatives that they offer and so nice not to be charged extra for choosing coconut milk. Will carry on recommending people to visit”

“Really good food and value for money. The protein boxes are great for people who are training or just trying to eat healthy. The Tandoori chicken in particular is spot on!!! would highly recommend this place, the staff are very friendly too!”

“A hidden gem in copson street in withington. Great middle eastern and italian food. The food is freshly prepared. The pizza is italian style with a thin base. The foul is authentic and the kibbeh home made. Even the home made gourmet burgers are individually prepared and a world apart from fast food. Friendly staff and we have always had good service. Really good value for money, especially for families.”

“Great little cafe in a nice quiet location in central Bollington. Food is superb, as is the coffee and service. Nice place to spend a lazy weekend morning.”

“Coffee is great deep and flavoursome, well made by the owner, who is very friendly, wide selection of drinks and snacks and also doggy drinks and a children's selection, well worth a visit.”

“Excellent food. Highly recommended. £150 between 7 of us”

“Fantastic, popular artisan bakery cafe, offering superb coffee & food. The home baked cheese & chilli Focaccia bread was Stunning!! Glad we waited 20 minutes to get a table. Will definitely be back, when next in the area.”

“On the small side but the food was lovely and great value for money. The staff were very attentive and gave great service.”
