Patrick Hannity's decade-old spin-off from his Manchester original is less well known than its progenitor but is “usually excellent”, too; the food is “light, balanced and filled with flavour”, incorporating produce from his Peak District farm.

It’s not as well-known as its famous Didsbury sibling, but Patrick Hannity’s “excellent” brasserie is “just as good” according to its local fans, with “fantastic” and “consistent” cooking.

Reviewed 6 months, 30 days ago

"food is on edge of very good and good. some aspects excellent. some good... the lime tree based on years of experience, varies. sometimes excellent - with beautiful balance and subtlety. today in the main the flourishes were missing... salad was a bit clumsy in dressing, wasn't as varied in leaves.. chutney overly sweet. chicken, lovely jus, but lacking something. possibly overly salty as well. deserts great, but needing less sweetness and more balance. very generous. ambiance is good - but maybe they need to add a little polish back in? it was busy, with a mix of dinners, brunch and coffees. families, friends. a proper neighbourhood brasserie. service was friendly - as ever. it is very tough economically. and they are holding prices to a very reasonable level, given what they do - which may explain small changes? maybe the prices are too reasonable? and a little inflation would help - places like this deserve to keep going.
