Jem&I, Manchester

With an inventive menu, pleasant service, and cozy setting, Jem&I stands as one of the most popular spots for contemporary British dining in Manchester. The mix of new and old flavors give the menu an inventive twist on traditional English fare, so be sure to order a childhood favorite for a pleasant surprise. This restaurant draws a wide range of clientele, from students to old ladies out for their lunch, and the comfortable setting (including an outside patio area at the back) is often packed in the evenings and summer. Start off with the Potato Cakes and Smoked Salmon, served with spinach, a chicken liver parfait and poached egg, but be sure to leave room for the special desserts, including sticky toffee pudding. In 2006 the restaurant was awarded the Michelin Guide Star Rating of ‘Bib Gourmand', the only eatery in Manchester to have received the honor.
