20 Stories

Manchester’s highest – and possibly finest – restaurant, bar and terrace. D&D London’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 offers modern British, seasonal dishes.

Start with dishes such as pan-fried scallops with Jerusalem artichoke purée and Alsace bacon crisps. Steak or giant sharing cuts such as the 35oz Tomahawk are a thrill. They do great desserts (this is a people-pleasing kind of place after all) including imaginative sweet treats, many starring seasonal ingredients.
