New on Guides: Manchester’s best-known restaurant group

1 year ago

We’ve just added one of Manchester’s best-known, and best-loved, restaurant groups to Confidential Guides – and we couldn’t be happier to spotlight it to our readers.

Individual Restaurants, the group behind Piccolino, Riva Blu, Restaurant Bar & Grill, Opera Grill and Piccolo By Piccolino is a Manchester-born business with well-regarded restaurants all over England.

Most people know its flagship location Piccolino Caffe Grande with its oyster bar, stunning interior, and sunspot terrace overlooking Albert Square.

But have you explored the full range of restaurants in their family? If you like stylish food, beautiful cocktails, and (weather-proof) alfresco dining, you probably should.
