Solomon Grundy, Manchester

This is Withington's first and most famous café-bar. During the day, it's an expensive coffee shop, turning into a bistro at midday. In the evening, it's a bar and restaurant, with live jazz on Fridays. Breakfast, pastries and sandwiches are available from open until 6p. Traditional breakfasts and a range of delicious sandwiches including smoked salmon and mascarpone with a honey and mustard dressing are available in the morning. Main courses include salmon en croute with desserts such as Jamaican rum fudge melt. There is a limited choice of draft beers and a larger range of continental bottled lagers and spirits for the same price.
