Manchester restaurant named best in UK for a roast dinner
Roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy are essential!
A restaurant in Manchester has been named as the best in the UK for a Sunday roast, with another Manchester eatery also ranking among the top five.
Both Manchester restaurants were the only two entries from our city but prove you can certainly get a decent roast here.
The study was conducted by bookmaker Betway and saw Hawksmoor win top place and Elnecot in Ancoats take fifth.
The research used in its index score was generated from the number of hashtags each location had racked up on Instagram as well as reviews given on Google and Trip Advisor.
Eateries from Manchester, London, Liverpool and Belfast came out on top and were among the top twelve across the UK.
The two Manchester restaurants were two of three from the North of England to make it onto the list. Hanover Street Social, in Liverpool, also came in as a strong contender in third place.
The 12 best restaurants to get a roast dinner in the UK, according to Betway, are:
- Hawksmoor Manchester
- Hawksmoor Seven Dials, London
- Hanover Street Social, Liverpool
- OX Belfast, Belfast
- Elnecot, Manchester
- Kyloe and The Scran and Scallie, both Edinburgh
