Farewell to the Bull and Bear, and hello to the Stock Market Grill. The Stock Exchange Hotel’s long-awaited new brasserie opens next week, and the Manchester Evening News got in for a first look.
Formerly celebrity TV chef Tom Kerridge’s domain, the restaurant is now being run by the Schofield brothers, who already run the hotel’s cocktail bar Sterling in the basement, as well as Schofield’s Bar - recently voted the fourth best bar in the UK - and Atomeca at Deansgate Square.
Though this is their first restaurant project, the pair are confident that they can pull it off, with a brand new menu, a revamped dining room (the divisive TV screens showing rolling sports that held court previously are gone), a great chef at the helm and a new partner in wine expert James Brandwood.
