If you’ve driven through the centre of Cheadle Hulme this past week, you’ve probably noticed something is a little different. Shining like a beacon, a bright yellow neon sign confirms a new restaurant has landed in the suburb.
The area isn’t short of places to eat and drink - just across the road there’s Gusto Italian, Zumuku Sushi and Inventory. However, it has lacked a dedicated space for waffles, burgers and shakes.
Cue Shakedown, the new waffle and shake bar on Station Road, serving up signature burgers, milkshakes, sides and sweet treats. Already well-established in Withington and Wythenshawe, Shakedown owners wanted to move into Cheadle Hulme to become part of its vibrant hospitality community, a place where “locals know good food when they taste it”.
