It’s fair to say that Manchester likes a rooftop. Whether it’s a trip to Terrace’s beer garden in the Northern Quarter or 20 Stories wrap-around terrace on Spinningfields, rooftop bars and restaurants are one of the first places we think to head to when the sun comes out to play and a post-work drink is in order.
And next the next couple of years will see the arrival of a few more. The Treehouse Hotel will land on Deansgate, Soho House and its rooftop pool will open at Old Granada Studios and Chotto Matte - a Japanese Peruvian restaurant concept - will take up residence atop Gary Neville’s St Michael’s development.
But you don’t need to wait for those to open to get your panoramic views of the Manchester skyline because Climat, a new wine-led restaurant, will be opening its doors this Friday (December 2) at Blackfriars House in the city centre. Filling the role of sister restaurant to Chester’s Michelin-Guide recommended Covino, the new spot will combine Parisian-style interiors with casual, yet elevated dining.
