The best Polish restaurants in Manchester

Enjoy modern Polish cooking in the heart of the city at Platzki. Based in the Great Northern Warehouse, this spot serves a seasonal menu that's always evolving, with dishes made with local and ethical produce. It's a spacious and homey venue with a busy atmosphere. There are cocktails with Polish flavours plus traditional dishes including daily-changing pierogi flavours.

Denton venue BeeRogi is an unassuming spot that serves some of the tastiest Polish food in Manchester. Pierogi dumplings with a choice of fillings are the big draw here, but other traditional favourites include schnitzel, potato pancakes, and fried Polish sausage. The venue is cute and cosy with Polish posters and decor on the walls.

Diners in Stockport get Polish cuisine at The Honeypot. This local family-run venue is cosy and homey, decorated with candles and lanterns, and aims to showcase traditional dishes from Poland. Breakfast is served but later in the day you can try hot baguettes, classic soups like borscht, or other favourites like pierogi, pork schnitzel, or cabbage parcels.

It's not strictly a Polish restaurant, but The Spärrows serves central European cuisine and has pierogis on the menu. It's gained a reputation as one of Manchester's top restaurants, set into a railway arch and with a friendly atmosphere. Spätzle are the speciality but gnocchi, other types of dumplings, and fresh pasta dishes are served too, alongside a broad choice of beverages.
