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

Really cute spot, with outdoor seating and a few seats indoors. The food was 5/5 - I would definitely recommend if you like African/Caribbean food - they have these really nice beignets that are made with plantain which are different but tasteful and to die for. I’ve not tried a lot of the food but I did love what I tried. And as a bonus it’s halal 👌🏽

Outstanding taste and quality. This place is an absolute hidden gem, highly recommended. We’ll be ordering here again. We had the jerk chicken box, veg and chips with one of best gravies I’ve ever had. We also had the Accras and Rice and peas which was also delicious.

Fantastic multi course dinner made by the students, truly remarkable cooking. Check Twitter for dates.

Just back from a lovely themed night at Aspire Restaurant at Traffordd College - fabulous value and great food. Really good prices for quality drinks too. We had a 3 course meal with additional appetisers on arrival and coffee with a sweet treat at the end and 2 alcoholic drinks each including their fabulous award winning Rhubard Gin Cocktail (delicious) All in it came to £50.20 for the 2 of us plus of course we left service on top of that. So pleased to have revisited and looking forward to more meals there going forwards. Well done Aspire!

We have been going there for at least seven years. The food and service have always been excellent. Seeing young people doing everything so well is especially impressive to me--a retired teacher. If we lived closer we would dine there more!

Exciting tasting menu. Unusual combinations. Very professional. Super presentation. Well done students, not forgetting mentor Chef! Loved it. Going again soon. Cannot wait for themed evenings in January!! 👌

Delightful little gem of a cafe with lovely, attentive and friendly staff. Had the most incredible Full English I've had in a long time which compelled me to write this review. Highly recommend.

Cheeky little win... I came here with my uncle and auntie and my 2 Year old for lunch and it covered all the bases, went in on there recommendation and was more than pleasantly surprised. We got two portions of spaghetti and meatballs, , the salmon tagliatelle and a simple pasta with butter and cheese for my daughter. Authentic, big flavour, fresh and not greasy at all, I would discribe it as simple food done well with a pleasant point, if you want to try something different that isn't just egg on toast this is your little Italy in a little village. I believe if you ask and they aren't busy they will make any core pasta dish. Staff are really nice but does get busy at lunch time so don't wait around support local and tantalise those taste buds. Coffee was also good....

Food is fantastic! Everyone is so nice and the service is impeccable. I ordered a Pasta, and it was outstanding! The workers are amazing and he is so nice! Giro, you are amazing! 11/10 for me!

Thanks to the staff of Di Martino Caffé, I had a really pleasant time while waiting for my flight back home. Perfect cappuccino followed by a little snack and a short chat with the owner...thank you!

Rigatonis is my favourite pasta restaurant by far. Fantastic small menu, intimate restaurant with a good atmosphere, knowledgeable and helpful staff, and the best pasta i’ve ever tasted! So much flavour is packed into every dish. Been multiple times, each time the same high standard is maintained!

Every now and again you go for a meal and everything is just right ….. after dropping our daughter off at Manchester airport we were heading into Altrincham for a bite to eat, we had planned on a tapas but when we saw Rigatoni’s and their delicious looking menu we knew this was the one, and we were absolutely right!!!! From the warm welcome we received from the manager, who found us a lovely table outside under the heaters, such cosy spot….the food speaks for itself, a small but perfectly formed menu which to us means fresh food, it was just so delicious, we opted for the seafood and the signature rags, both absolutely delicious, we had skipped a started and opted for dessert and we were not disappointed…the treacle and apple pie really was one of the nicest desserts we have eaten in a long time…. Not too sweet just incredibly flavoursome… we finished with a coffee and limoncello!!!! Simply divine 😋…. What adds to the great food is the fabulous service, so welcoming and you know how much it means to these guys when like us you leave feeling so happy…. Cannot wait to go back 😊

We went into Rigatoni's on impulse and, wow, we had such a special experience ☺️😋. I had the dish with gorgonzola and pickled pears (pictured) and my husband had the aubergine dish. Both were absolutely delicious with tastes and flavours we've never experienced before. I had the Passimiento wine which was extraordinarily tasty and we finished our meal off with some gorgeous ice cream! The service from Stuart, was fantastic: friendly, personal, relaxed and professional. We were celebrating our anniversary and this meal made it very special. Highly recommended!!!

We have been coming here since 2015 and can honestly say it’s our favourite restaurant. The food, service, staff and atmosphere are second to none. My favourite dishes of the Bruschetta Pugliese and the Broccolini pasta main are still on the menu which fills me with joy! The service from Tony and the team is exceptional and you are made to feel part of the family. Tonight didn’t disappoint and thank you for still living up to such a high standard of exceptional Puglian inspired dishes and fantastic customer service. We look forward to coming back soon.

We had a Wonderful experience at Riva last Friday night. We enjoyed some Beautiful Wines & a fab dinner and the Team were great. We went for a selection of nibbles for our starters, Halloumi Fries with chilli jam, rustic bread with olive oil & balsamic & olives and hummus and they were all great. I chose the Pan Roast French Trim Chicken with greens, fondant potato & red wine jus. The Chicken was beautiful and moist, the fondant potato was probably the best I have had, crispy on the outer & fluffy in the middle and I could have drank the red wine jus it was that tasty! Mrs K had Roasted squash & wild mushroom strudle & thoroughly enjoyed it. Our friends had the 8oz Riva Burger and loved it although it is quite a size and the Hake which was on the specials board and again beautifully cooked by the Head Chef Daniel. The wine list is extensive but after chatting with Simon we ordered Baron de Baussac Viognier and Languedoc-Roussilon and they were divine. I know when you go to a Restaurant you expect great food which we certainly received but I have to say that the service and whole experience was fantastic. The Team were very attentive but also warm and friendly and their care factor was exemplary. It's great to support a local Business but it is made an awful lot easier when you have such an amazing experience. We will certainly be back!

I'm so glad I booked this place for me and my partner. We'll definitely be going again. We went on Saturday at 6pm and booked a dog-friendly table at the front. The decor is lovely, the place is clean and inviting and perfect temperature. I had the beef wellington and my partner had a special of ribeye and eggs with chips. The meat inside the wellington was the most beautiful soft meat I've ever had and my boyfriend said his steak was really nice, it had a smoky flavour. My starter of lamb croquettes was also really nice. Service was wonderful and attentive without being overbearing and everything came out at perfect times. I'd give it 100/10 if I could.

What a lovely local gem of a place this is. We were hosted by the charming Simon. I had the Eggs Florentine. Just gorgeous pillows with bright orange melting yolks on fluffy muffins. To top it off lush hollandaise and plenty of it.

The best roast dinner ever. Angela and Oliver were welcoming and attentive. The manager is so welcoming, snd she has such lovely staff. The food was fab. Best in Hale and we've been to all of the others. A hidden gem. If you've never been, your missing a treat. Nice things come in small boxes. Superb in every way

I have ordered some sandwiches/fruit kebab for my son's birthday. Even though the order was very short notice they accepted it and it was amazing. Everything was so fresh and delicious. Everyone loved the food. I will definitely be ordering again.

First time here but won’t be our last! Stopped in as car was in garage and now have found my go to place for lunch. Food was amazing and portions very generous given the reasonable prices.

Wow- blown away with ther service. My daughter is coeliac and they went out their way. That in itself is why i will be returning .. BUT the food was phenomenal.. absolutely delicious. We have had the chicken and rice, lamb Kabsi and falafel wraps ❤️❤️❤️. Can’t wait to order again.

We used Mama's Cuisine for a really last minute catering order for ten people. The customer service was amazing, really helpful and accomodating with less than a days notice. The food was really delicious, it tasted fresh and home made with authentic middle eastern flavours, our guests were really impressed. The portion sizes were huge so really good value for money too. Will definitely order again and I would definitely recommend to others! I didn't get any good pictures because we dug straight in, and will happily be eating the leftovers for a few days.

Very home feel Hong Kong style food. Reasonable price and good service. Like the most oyster omelette and beef briskets!

I had the best oyster omelette in altrincham today. The noodles are very delicious too. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Recommended!

Very authentic Hong Kong Style food at very reasonable price. Friendly staff and clean environment. We forgot to take the pictures before digging in. We'll come back for more.

Small shop that cooked with heart. The Lady chef would love to do all possible to fulfils different tastes of her customers. Some people like greens but some people don’t. I personally respect to her original thinking and taste. Occasionally, I would ask for a bit spice goes with the tasty sour spicy noodles. A small round table for 2 and 3 bar seats were provided for dine in and they are welcome for the take away.

Excellent takeaway! So impressed with the food - its safely one of the best takeaways around here. Chef Naeem offers brilliant service everytime. Its a firm family favourite - highly recommended!

Beautiful, authentic Indian food. Chef/owner was so lovely and welcoming, he couldn’t do enough to make our meal the best it could be and always smiling. It’s always a gamble on trying a new curry place because some will try and put boiled chicken in ketchup water and tell you it’s karahi chicken, this place is real authentic Indian cuisine full of flavour and spice. Will definitely be back

The food was absolutely delicious! The flavors were authentic, portions were generous, and everything was fresh and perfectly cooked. Service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend for anyone craving excellent Indian cuisine!”

The owner was head chef at a successful Indian Restaurant in Altrincham, and now has this place. Passionate about traditional flavours, and very warm and welcoming. An absolutely incredible meal. The Lamb Rogan Josh was beautifully cooked with melt in your mouth chunks of lamb. The Paneer dish was also one of the best we’ve ever had. Very clean looking kitchen, and the chef definitely takes a lot of pride in his food. Honestly one of the best Indian takeouts I’ve experienced. Restaurant quality, brilliant value, and exceptional tasting. Timperley residents are very lucky to have this level of Indian cuisine on their doorstep!

Had no idea that this micro brewery was based in Timperley. Flic arranged my visit to the brewery where a bar area is open for a few limited hours a week. They had one mild of hand pump plus a session Pale Ale. Both very good.

Beer is hit & miss, more about variety than quality - not going to win any awards but tasting flights are a good idea to check what is worthy. Nice atmosphere at the brewery at least.

I travel around the world and wherever I go, I try to find a small brewpub and see how they are doing. The Stubborn Mule Brewery is a very nice neighborhood brewpub. Reminds me of my home brewery in Washington State. Keep up the good work.

Great small taproom, only open Fri and Sat. Quiet this Sat, still good atmosphere and good food van on the day.

Lovely restaurant in Altrincham. Brazilian style buffet with a range of delicious meats. Staff were friendly and tentative. Lovely interior and enjoyed the music/atmosphere. The meats were great but the pork belly was over cooked, it was tough and dry. I think the meats could have been seasoned more too but there was salt a& pepper on the table so no biggie! Generous sizes for cocktails! We would go again!

I asked the team a favour if they can help me celebrate both my friends birthday by surprising them with a piece of cake each and a candle, the team went above and beyond by presenting a very nice chocolate cake with a fantastic sparkle candle. Thank you so much for the lovely service and food you've given us. We shall dine here again next month.

We've always opted to go to bem brazil previously for a similar kind of cuisine, having not known about Jardim until recently, but They had quickly started to really disappoint with their lack of service and value for money. We visited Jardim last night and did not leave disappointed! The staff were very welcoming, professional, polite and attentive. The salad bar was brilliant, something our previous choice of resturant had stopped doing, everything was fresh and tasty and there was lots to choose from We ordered 1 of each side and especially liked the truffle fries and the maccaroni cheese with jalapeños i could've easily ate a large bowl on its own! The servers with the meat skewers were coming round regularly and the cuts of meat were juicy and cooked perfectly, the sausages and chicken were also delicious 😋 This experience has easily put Jardim at the top spot for us ahead of bem brazil and even fazenda! We will be back very soon!
