Top 30 Best Traditional foods in Altrincham

“Is it the pasta or the sauce? Set aside any fears of school dinner Mac and cheese, Sugo is on a different level altogether. Having lucked out on getting a table after 2 years of living nearby, I relished the chance to review them. The space is warm but snug. Large parties will struggle especially with COVID restrictions. Not an issue in summer, but a possible one in Winter. They’re dog friendly as they have some seating outside, so please specify this when booking. Onto the primi piatti! Expect luscious pasta cooked to the correct side of al dente. It seems to inhale the sauces that make use of the starch and premium stock in lieu of cream. All making for a far more palatable meal. And the sauce. The term does not do the flavours and texture justice. The melange of spices and components be they vegetarian or not, are sublime. Just a taste of the seafood pasta alone conveyed everything in one bite. Not to be outdone, their beverage selection is nothing short of brilliant. The chinotto brought back fond memories of Kinni cola. Sadly I did not have time to partake of dolce but will endeavour to do so next time.”

“Fantastic. Not too much fish (I'm easily overfaced), well cooked chips and not at all greasy. Superb.”

“Popped in to use the bar as we were waiting for teens to finish a birthday meal across the road. There was nowhere open to grab a coffee at 6.30pm on a snowy December eve. Although we were not dining in we were welcomed as any guest and the service was excellent even if it was for only 2 coffees and a beer. We are looking forward to coming back for a meal soon. Thankyou.”

“My friend and I just had the best curry we've ever had, it was that good! From the service to the food we couldn't fault it. Amazing! I will definitely be coming here again.”

“11 icehockey players looking for somewhere good to eat entered & were greeted with open arms seating us all together & then took our drinks order. Whilst waiting for us to decide what we wanted they supplied us with several baskets of prawn crackers with dips & they were really tasty & not like a chippy. The food came out in baskets too with a choice of cutlery or chopsticks!. Overall the food was excellent the drinks flowed & the service was always there making sure we was being looked after & top marks excellent!. Definitely will be recommending this place to friends & family.”

“The uramaki rolls and crispy fried squid are fantastic! It tasted like the maki rolls were made using fresh ingredients and were very flavourful and saucy. The katsu roll was our favourite! Good value for money too, with 10 pieces in each maki roll. Would highly recommend this place.”

“Nice restaurant with delicious Chinese dishes and bubble tea and most importantly a kind chef”

“Highly commended on all fronts. A really nicely presented shop with a small seating area, really lovely and helpful staff. And the food was all excellent. We tried some goat curry, the chicken, a dumpling, rice with peas and a lovely fresh salad. All really tasty and fresh. Sorry, no pictures this time but we will definitely be back!”

“Went for lunch with my friends and our 2 dogs had a lovely welcome. Toasties where gorgeous, water bowls and treats for the dogs who could ask for more.”

“Well having seen plenty of attempts by many to pretend to be an Italian restaurant we finally have one !!!!……. Here in Hale. Delicious food home cooked and the restaurant owned by the chef, his mother in the kitchen and his wife front of house. Kid yourself no more this is the real deal and delicious- a must try !!!!”

“Great tasting Indian food 5 stars! I called in on Tuesday evening for the first time and wasn't disappointed, the service 5 stars! The staff were helpful, polite & friendly & the cleanliness of the establishment 5 stars! I had a really tasty Prawn main meal with subtle spices/coconut flavours which was delicious......5 Stars! I will definitely be eating here again & I guarantee you won't be disappointed with this new takeaway in Timperley, well worth giving it a try. 5 stars!!”

“I had a very last minute event that I desperately needed a cake for. I contacted Mama’s cuisine and they graciously agreed to sort me out with a 12 inch cake. The owner only had a days notice and had other orders, but still managed to make mine, and had it ready earlier than agreed which was so great. Not only did the cake look DIVINE (and better than I could even imagine), but it tasted AMAZING! Everyone was so impressed with the cake, it actually became the centre piece of the party. I am forever grateful for Mamas Cuisine, and will most definitely be coming back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“We brought our friends here who were visiting from Birmingham and everyone was swept away with the quality and authenticity of the food. The service staff were super friendly and the food was delicious. This was our second visit here in the last month and the food is always amazing, top quality and makes you feel like your visiting India. Great for any occasion and always really good value for money. We won't be going anywhere else for Indian food in Trafford!”

“We had take away for 4 people. food cooked to perfection, plenty of it and ample side dishes for everyone. Order was ready for collection at the time requested. Well done and thanks!!”

“Chicken Tikka Masala is that sweet creamy orange you always look out for. Couldn’t recommend these guys enough - curry, naan and poppadoms always on point. Thanks guys”

“Very nice food, especially the salt and pepper ribs.”

“Fabulous, fabulous food, nice staff, WAY better than the ridiculous dire Altrincham Market. I left the Tender Cow (TC) in the Market after a disgusting meal and found this brilliant cafe. Tender Cow has No customer care, just a very bad attitude, my steak was swimming in sauce. Other restaurants would and do welcome feedback. It's how they stay open. No one wants 27 tonnes of sauce, you had to find the steak. Way too much sauce, no standards before food sent out. It could have been cardboard, you couldn't taste the meat, which made it pointless. At Altrincham Market silly prices you hope they had some skills? I took back the food to Tender Cow to offer feedback, and they couldn't care. Zero care. They just said ok. And ignored us....No refund, no replacement. In Lisbon we sent back a steak for a similar issue and the owner's came out to thank us, to adapt, to keep customers. A free replacement, and we return lots to that restaurant.”

“Our very favourite curry takeaway kitchen, and we've tried many. They are takeaway only - not torn between serving in-house and takeaway customers, and it shows in the quality of the food and speed of service.”

“Lovely tapas, reasonable prices, nice selection with some different dishes, only downside is the place is small and a little cramped and little room on small tables for a good selection of dishes”

“We enjoyed our meal especially as the cost was much reduced with 10 loyalty coupons”

“Nice place, good views upstairs and really friendly staff. Good selection of craft beers and taste pies, not cheap for what you get but reasonable.”

“Fantastic authentically Italian pizza, and lovely staff. If I lived in Altrincham this would definitely become a regular haunt!”

“First time in Little Italy for myself and my partner and what a little jewel it is. Cozy and personal with wonderful food and great wine. Sam the owner takes the time to come out of the kitchen and make sure everything is fine personally, and our server Brooke was super attentive and helpful the whole night. We'll definitely be returning to this delightful eatery in the future.”

“GupShup is a rather special restaurant,the dishes are spiced so cleverly,full of flavours that excite your taste buds, you may not see your favourite curry on the menu here but don't worry the wonderful staff will guide you to a dish that delights !.”

“What a lovely restaurant. I went with the In Laws so we had a table of 4. Service was exceptional and they couldn’t do enough for you. Drinks came quick and they were always asking if we are ok. The interior was lovely and a chilled vibe to the place. Having never had Sri Lankan food I didn’t know what to expect. It’s kinda like Indian but more spicier so be prepared. We really enjoyed it. Will go again very soon and will look to see if they do take out because I would prefer it to an Indian on a Saturday night at home. This restaurant was a very welcome surprise you won’t be disappointed.”

“We went to Phanthong for lunch on Saturday and ordered from the A La Carte menu. The decor is lovely. The food was presented beautifully and absolutely delicious. We had young kids with us and they loved the food too, especially the pad Thai noodles. The service was excellent. Would definitely recommend this place and will be back again.”

“The best fish and chips in the Altrincham area. The staff are always very friendly / courteous nothing is too much trouble for them! My family and I use them regularly. I hope they are around for a long time to come.”

“Been going here for several years, food and service is always excellent, fast and efficient, extensive menu, highly recommend”
