The Best Restaurants in Stalybridge, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

The assistance was fast very nice and cozy! I loved how the waiter let me mix around their menu and made something very well! The meals were perfect and delicious and I loved the portion size and it was very hygienic!

Tonight was our first visit to this restaurant, the service, the food, the atmosphere was fantastic. By the far the best food we have eaten in a restaurant in a long time. We could not believe how busy it was only just got a table at 5.00pm on a friday as we were leaving it was packed. A little gem and will be back for certain. Not the cheapest but the food was amazing 🤩

This was the first time my husband and I had gone to Abbraccio. It was a Friday lunch time. Soon as we walked in we were greeted in a very polite manner. The restaurant looked very nice. There was a very chilled atmosphere. All the staff were ever so lovely and very very helpful. As I have ceoliac disease I don't really eat out much. I was so impressed with the gluten free options. There was so much to choose from and the staff were on hand to help too. we had an amazing meat platter for starters and we both went for pizza for our main, mine being gluten free of course. The food is amazing. To finish with we both had a dessert which again was lovely. I cant recommend this place enough. You have to go and try it. It's worth every penny. We will definately be going again.

A vibrant, bright, clean and friendly atmosphere awaits. The service was brilliant and the food exceptional. Would highly recommend abbraccio to anyone looking for a fantastic Italian at a reasonable price. Everything was fresh and tasty and we had a brilliant time

Hamza was our server tonight. Whilst serving a table of 30!., he managed to be attentive and you could tell he really cared about his job. Atmosphere and setting was amazing, would highly recommend to any curry novice or veteran. Pure class 👌

Struggling to find a curry in Greater Manchester? Well, in my opinion, Mahal is one of the best curry houses in all of Manchester (maybe the UK) and let me tell you why… First off, let’s start with the interior. The design is so cool and there even is a water feature at one of the tables (in pictures). Furthermore, the atmosphere is really relaxed - the perfect atmosphere for a curry house! Most importantly though, the staff weren’t good. They were great. In fact, they were some of the best staff I have ever seen. They are so kind and they treat you like royalty, and they will do their very best to take care of you, something I think every other restaurant needs. Now let’s start with the food. I ordered a Mango Lassi and let me tell you, it is the best Mango Lassi you will find in Greater Manchester. It is so sweet, thick and creamy that it becomes borderline delicious and addictive. It pairs well with spicy dishes as well. As appetisers, I had roasted poppadoms. They were so crispy and had a smoky flavour, while the tray of chutneys was delicious. As starters, I had an onion bhaji. It was nice and crispy. Also, an honourable mention for the lamb chops. They were so succulent, flavourful, and tender that they were the perfect starter. For mains, I had the Ceylon curry. The Ceylon is a blend of delicious Sri Lankan spices - a must-try from me! The chicken was so tender as well! But the main event for me was the Peshwari Naan. This is a naan but it comes with a twist - crushed, sweet almonds are inside the naan. The almonds give the naan depth, making the naan even better! Also, the naan was perfect for soaking up curries - which is a great thing! The Pilau rice was also nice. Overall, this place is amazing. You need to try this place - it is essential to try!

Excellent service and the food was delicious. Hamza was an excellent host and very polite and friendly. He checked in with us and made sure everything was alright with our food. We’ll definitely come again

I think between myself and my partner we have tried all of the menu at Mr Beards, and can say without fear of contradiction that it is the best takeaway in the area. The food is always amazing, delicious, packaged well and piping hot on delivery. The customer service is second to none with great communication and flexibility. Mr Beard delivers the food himself and you can tell that he cares about the customer and their experience when dealing with them. Highly, highly recommended! Thank you.

Absolutely stunning food. We had the BBQ sharing platter. The meat was delicious! beautifully seasoned and great portions. All the sides were delicious. Dipping a pulled pork brioche bun in the pit beans was just divine 🤤 We will definitely be ordering again and highly recommend. Get your order booked in and enjoy 👍

Mr Beard's BBQ what can I say?? The food from here is amazing!! Straight up 10/10. Every single bite was a mouth full of flavours, from the sweet smokiness of the brisket to the spicy cheesy Jalapeño sausage, absolutely can not fault it at all. I’ve never been a massive fan of ribs but the meat just fell of these and were perfectly cooked. Everything was piping hot and tasted like it had just come straight out of the smoker. Liam Marley Eats those beans mate 🤪🤪🤪 Wow!! They were even good enough to make the Chicken Goujons from scratch without pepper for my daughter. £40 in total for all that food, worth every penny. The day they open a restaurant I’ll be at the front of the queue on opening night.

Well this was an absolute tast sensation!!! We had been meaning to try Mrs Beards BBQ for a while! I only wished we had done so sooner! We got a full rack of ribs and fries. Absolute delicious 😋 The Ribs fell off the bone and melted in the mouth, the fries where really tasty. We had it deliverd and it was pipping hot when it arrived! Very reasonablely priced for the amount of food you get and you can most certainly taste the quality Think we have found our new favourite takeaway! Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu! 5 star! 10 out of 10!!

Another lovely addition to our town centre. I had a coffee in here this afternoon after the owner had kindly let me sit outside to eat my fish and chips from the chippy next door. Really lovely, friendly service and very affordable prices. I will definitely going back again soon.

Came in and enjoyed a great cup of coffee, lovely little place and everyone is very welcoming and friendly. Will visit again.

Myself and my partner visited today for the first time with our twins. The owner went out of his way to help us. Moving tables out of the way to accommodate our large double pram and serving our food separately to allow us to entertain the kids whilst each of us ate. The decor is lovely and place was spotless. The food and coffee were delicious! Such wonderful attentive staff and great service. A special shoutout to the owners daughter who is just adorable and kept us entertained whilst we were there. A credit to you! Will definitely be back!

Amazing Food and excellent customer service

Wanted to try Sorriso for ages, we finally went for our wedding anniversary a few weeks ago. A great menu, plenty to choose from and very reasonably priced. A lovely open restaurant and good service. The food is nothing shy of stunning, would definitely recommend to give it a go.

Lovely food, there was a wait in-between starters and mains but it was packed so understandable. The food portions where huge and very tasty.

Food and service is amazing! We have been 3 times and have loved every visit. The fillet steak is huge and includes the fries and sauce which is so good value for the money and the cheesecake was delicious. Has been really busy every time we’ve come and I can understand why. We love it here!

Building is amazing first time here ! Staff 10/10 amazing customer service family oriented! Seating areas are amazing! Shown to our table given menu and our drinks came fast ! The food came meat cooked to perfection well presented my pictures show it . Sauces were amazing not to oily , great amount of food love their rice as well . Great location in Stalybridge parking at the back ! Enjoy the food !

To start with the restaurant itself is a warm welcoming environment that gives private dining vibes. The food itself is some of the best I've had in the last 10 years. The peshwari naan is done how it should be your able to taste the coconut. Honestly really impressed and will be returning.

Wow what a lovely place! We came here as a group of 18, the staff were very friendly and very accommodating. They gave us the choice of ordering from the a-la-carte menu or using the party menu - we decided to use the party menu as you got poppadoms, starter, main and side for £16 per person, which made things so much easier when it came to the bill. Everyone in our party commented and how good the food was. Excellent quality and very nice flavours. We liked the fact that the kitchen is on show and you can see the chefs preparing your meal. A great evening had by all, we will definitely be back!

An amazing place set in the heart of Stalybridge Tameside! Just winning an award for best currie house in the north west ! The venue is truly beautiful attention to detail , seating fantastic & very cozy & relaxing! Service is cool 10/10 ! The food is amazing and the menu is easy to follow full of choice enjoy the pictures and go there your self !

Been wanting to try this place for some time now so decided to give it ago. Overall the place is fine. We was only 1 of 2 tables in on Thursday evening. Over all place is decorated really really good. Modern chic feel but with a rustic setting. Went with 3 other ppl all had starts and a totally different main so varied food order. Feedback was all the same food OK little bland but OK. (Expected little better as venue is good.) Starts where good however mains lacked in taste and flavour. Pricing was fair and reasonable service was good but considering only 1 other table on a Thursday night I'd expect nothing less. Would return on a different night possibly weekend to see if was improved or different however I'd say better places in the area before going back.

Honestly can't rate this place enough. We drive 30 minutes for it and it's been worth it every time! Just been in again tonight with family to celebrate 2 birthdays. Table of 10 and everything was spot on. Every one of us had something amazing to say. Food is gorgeous, atmosphere and decor are stunning, prices are good. Have to make a special point about the staff though, can not fault a single one of them. They are friendly, helpful and all round brilliant. So refreshing when everyone is really nice, it makes visiting here an absolute pleasure. A big thank you to the team! Xx Google won't let me select 5 stars for food, service and atmosphere but it's 5 for all!

Went for brunch today. Excellent service the staff were lovely. Fantastic food and great presentation. Thank you

Absolutely beautiful establishment, the food was absolutely beautiful it was like taking a step back into antalya all over again 😍 nothing better than in ice cold efes, plus a beautiful array of cocktails will definitely be recommending and will definitely be back again ❤️

The food was absolutely delicious and good size portions. Staff were very attentive. My only negative was it was a bit chilly in the restaurant but the staff turned the heater on when we mentioned it. Will definately be going again.

Dropped in for a quick bite with my wife and what a find. Beautiful restaurant, fantastic food and lovely service. Will definitely come again!

No food, but good drinks and the best urinals ever.

Always warmly welcomed when we come to watch the football here! The staff are very friendly, and it's always clean too. Looking forward to coming back.

A Robinson's drinkers delight. Well run pub. Very appreciative and professional staff. Even during the lockdown rules the beer was excellent as well as the service. Nice to see it back to normal again.

A really well run pub that serves great ales, ciders etc. They have Sky Sports for the big matches but you never feel intimidated or that there's a negatively charged atmosphere like in some bars during the sports as they have an admissions policy of no baseball caps, no man bags or under 25's.
