Harden's says

Opening in March 2024 in a renovated historic warehouse which it shares with Leven lifestyle hotel on the corner of Canal and Chorlton Streets, this 3-storey venture offers a glossy ‘dinner plus’ experience, with late-night entertainment and DJs. Chef Gabe Lea has worked at Raymond Blanc’s Le Manoir and The French at the Midland Hotel.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

Old-time foodies may remember this converted warehouse from its days spearheading Manchester’s foodie makeover as ‘Mash & Air’ in the late 1990. This March 2024 newcomer is in the basement of the building – a dim-lit, glossy night-clubby space with surprisingly grown-up cuisine from chef Gabe Lea, who has worked at Raymond Blanc’s Le Manoir and The French at the Midland Hotel.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
