Michelin-star restaurants in Manchester

Manchester might not be globally renowned for its Michelin-starred cuisine, as there's only a single star to be found in the entire city. However, regardless of how many restaurants with a Michelin star there are in a city in total, the fact remains that every Michelin-starred restaurant exemplifies the best of fine dining and is well worth a visit on its own merits. Find out more about Michelin-star restaurants in Manchester with the help of our guide.

Manchester's Michelin-starred restaurants

Mana

One Michelin star

Under the guidance of chef-owner Simon Martin, Mana in Ancoats employs methods like fermentation and live-fire cooking to craft a modern British menu. Skilfully blending intense flavours and fine textures into an array of distinct, artfully arranged courses, the menus are complemented by a meticulously curated selection of new and old-world wines, as well as ingeniously crafted cocktails that draw inspiration from the kitchen. Mana's vast dining area, reminiscent of a contemporary cathedral, provides a different setting according to the time of day, as well as views of the kitchen from every table.

Michelin-star restaurants – About the guide

About the Michelin Guide
The first guide was published in 1900 by the car tyre manufacturer Michelin. It was handed out free to anyone who bought a car.

In the Michelin Guide, food (and only food) is categorised by stars. Points for service, atmosphere and other elements are rewarded by 'Couvert symbols', crossed forks and spoons (1-5).

- Three stars in the Michelin Guide means a restaurant is worth a “special journey”
- two stars means that the restaurant is “worth a detour”
- while one star means that it is an “exceptionally good restaurant in its category”
