Best Seasonal Restaurants in Ashton-Under-Lyne

The best Italian me and my girlfriend have ever eaten. If we lived local we would visit regularly! The staff were so friendly and helpful. Service was rapid and the food was out of this world! 10/10 from us

Lunch for 2 on the seasonal £40 sharing menu in the Saturday before Christmas. I’d heard and read so many good things about Higher Ground but not managed to get here until now, all of which were entirely justified. The interior (my bag) is cool, stylish and well laid out, tables not too close to each other. A really friendly welcome when we walked in, genuine and warm. Superlative staff, informed, enthusiastic without being over attentive, and knowledgable. Wonderful food, a smashing selection of dishes from the full menu. Pea fritters, British crab, incrediblly tasty cured meat, golden beets, warm freshly baked bread & whipped butter, succulent leeks - all excellent. Then a sharing main of Dexter beef on a delicate but hearty mushroom spelt porridge and a bowl of mash homegrown on the HG farm in Cheshire. I’ll be attempting to recreate smoked butter at home but doubtless will fail to make it this delicious. For the quality of food, attention to detail, quality of service, this was £40 per head very well spent. Wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Delicious dinner menu, plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options. Everything we tried was super yummy and all the staff were lovely. The kitchen was slightly slow, but we were in no rush so we weren't bothered about it, but maybe take it into consideration if you have somewhere to be. Lovely ambiance, food, drinks & staff. Will definitely go back.

Right in the heart of the city. Nice space, good service, good food and good lcoation.

Quick meal in city centre (after football) and on way to airport. All was very good, we both had the burger and they were very tasty. Our new Manchester office is close by so will definitely return.
