Manchester restaurant ranked in top 10 for best Sunday roasts in the UK

A Manchester restaurant has ranked among the top ten in the country for roast dinners.

Elnecot in Ancoats is the number 10 best reviewed restaurant for Sunday roasts in the UK on Tripadvisor, according to a survey by Tombola.

Opening in 2017, Elnecot was among the first restaurants to appear on Cutting Room Square, which is now famous for its eateries and bars.

Elnecot’s roast menu is only available on Sundays from 1.30pm until they run out and caters for all roast dinner preferences.

There are four meat options – Welsh Wagyu beef, lemon, thyme and butter roasted Goosnargh chicken, slow-roasted Yorkshire pork belly and slow-cooked shoulder of Yorkshire lamb – as well as vegetarian and vegan nut roasts. Each option also has a recommended wine pairing.

Prices range between £14.50 for the nut roast and £18 for the beef. Kids are welcome at Elnecot and their roast dinners are half the price of the full menu.

Each meal comes with all the favourite trimmings like Yorkshire puddings, cauliflower cheese and roast veg. And if that does not satisfy your appetite, you can order extra portions of everything, including meat.

On every other day of the week, the restaurant’s menu includes brunches, lunches, small plates, evening meals and cocktails.
