October 6, 20178 yr I'm out of the know Where best for a long lazy posh, boozy, lunch in Manchester? Jules is your man. Has at 3 hour luncheons most days (apart from Friday's, when he has 4hrs and then knocks off early)
October 6, 20178 yr Paedo Greggs* and a bench in Piccadilly Gardens... As a choice of 'wine' may I suggest a can of Spar's White Ace drank concealed in a discarded McDonalds paper bag? *As in one of the heirs to the Greggs fortune is a convicted paedophile, and in no way to suggest any other noncey involvements by others involved in Greggs.

October 6, 20178 yr Done a few afternoons in Hawksmoor - good food but not amazing atmosphere. If not arsed about that get the private room for maybe 6-8 people? Schloss is a half decent bar but nowhere near "Posh" and the food is very average. San Carlo still one of the best afternoon atmospheres, Picolino's Grand Cafe a good afto vibe too. It's not in the posh category but only just under it. New Grand Pacific is ok but limited menu, Australasia is a set menu for fair size parties as is Tattu but both upper end. El gato Negro is a good afternoon shout actually Shame Manc House, The French and Coopers shut post lunch about 2pm and Rabbit in the Moon is evening only

October 6, 20178 yr I do enjoy San Carlo Feels a bit degenerate Can't go wrong for me but I know folk that hate it Rosso's been done up but I'm not a fan Iberica is alright but not as good as El Gato Negro Different theme but new sportsbar called Brotherhood is quality for American type grub, sports and loads of ales Top of Central St The boar ragu in Don Marco is amazing but again it's not "posh", if you're out to impress a client or summat
October 6, 20178 yr The boar ragu in Don Marco is amazing but again it's not "posh"It's posher than it was when it was over the road!

Doesn't that knob head own that? You've been ? ????
October 6, 20178 yr If you want posh, look no further than Gaucho. It'll test your budget. Dead of an afternoon usually though No natural light makes it more of an evening place in my experience
October 6, 20178 yr If you want posh, look no further than Gaucho. It'll test your budget. We went there the other week. Food was absolutely stunning. But like jules says I can see it being quiet in the day, we caught it just right, pretty quiet when we got in there but got busier. Like spider says it will test your budget alright ....jules where was that tapas place you sent me down a side street off deansgate? That was ace that place
October 6, 20178 yr Wonderful place Bad hygiene report recently? They had some bother with rats getting in a couple of years ago but apparently sorted it pretty quickly. They're reet again now. Great place for sitting at the bar with a bottle of wine.
October 6, 20178 yr oldham st has some of the finest establishments in manchester , if you want the genuine experience
