I had the best Sunday Roast Dinner in Greater Manchester - it was huge and delicious!

The beautiful pub is just a short walk from the Didsbury Village tram stop making it extremely accessible and the perfect distance to help all that lovely food go down afterwards.

The Wild Alderman is dog-friendly and serves three delicious Great British Roast Dinners packed with rich flavours, roasted and glazed vegetables and plenty of gravy. It is the perfect spot to relax with friends, family and our four-legged friends after a long autumn walk.

As a vegetarian I had the Roast Stuffed Baby Squash which included crisp roast potatoes, glazed carrots and parsnips, seasonal greens and veggie gravy. A roast for a veggie really doesn’t get much better than this! the roast potatoes were seasoned beautifully and the Yorkshire pudding was perfectly cooked.

However, if you fancy a Roast with meat you can select from:

• Half Roast Chicken and Homemade Sausage Stuffing – Yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes, honey glazed carrots and parsnips, buttered green and gravy.

• 28 Day Aged Rump of Beef and Homemade Horseradish Sauce –Yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes, honey glazed carrots and parsnips, buttered greens and gravy.
• There is also the option of a Pork Special if the pub are choosing to offer it that day.

You can get one of these huge and delicious roasts for less than £20 which is an absolute steal!

Additionally we also had sharing plates which included stuffed shallots and cheesy cauliflower. The cauliflower is an absolute must and adds a lovely creaminess to the meal.

If you’re still not full after that then you can choose from a range of their delicious desserts such as their Sticky Toffee Pudding , Chocolate Brownie or Basque Cheesecake (to name a few options.)

We had the Sticky Toffee Sundae and the Chocolate Brownie with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. I’m so glad that I saved room for dessert because this is one that truly cannot be missed!

If you aren’t in the mood for a roast, there are also delicious mains from the grill, including chargrilled burgers, which are on an exclusive Wednesday grub offer for £12 burger and pint deal. The Wild Alderman serves 14 hand picked independent beers on tap and has a proud connection to its Beartown Brewing heritage.

The Wild Alderman also runs a weekly digital pub quiz every Thursday evening, with a £50 bar tab up for grabs, and live music every Friday night showcasing local talent. From acoustic sets to jazz, arts and craft events, there is something for everyone to enjoy this autumn.

The Wild Alderman’s Manager, Adam Wilde, said: “At The Wild Alderman, we’re creating a cosy pub environment where people can drop in straight after work for a catch-up, or head out from home to enjoy a pint, a glass of wine, or alcohol free beverage with friends. We want it to be that ‘third space’, not home, not work, but somewhere where people can feel comfortable, relaxed, and part of the community.

We’ve built a warm and welcoming atmosphere with a great selection of drinks and food. Our Sunday roast has really taken off as we’re now almost fully booked every week, which is a brilliant position to be in. We’re thankful for the feedback we’ve received, and it’s great to see that our customers have enjoyed our Great British Roast Dinner.

We’re also keeping all the great pub traditions alive by providing a special burger deal and pint on Wednesdays, a digital quiz on Thursdays, and live acoustic music every Friday. We’ve done this as we want locals to be able to find somewhere close by where they can have fun and enjoy listening to local talent right at their doorstep. We’re also a dog-friendly neighbourhood pub and welcome visitors and their furry friends and children to pop by and be able to use The Wild Alderman as a place to relax, unwind, and make new memories with friends and family over a drink and meal.”
