Brunch in Didsbury?

South Manchester people – having drawn a blank when I was down that side of the city this morning, where’s good for a brunchy lunch in Didsbury? Was a bit surprised that Turkish eggs on sourdough can be had in the metropolitan environs of Bury but couldn’t find anywhere down there…

East or West?

Village/East?

Bump for the dayshift

Personally I’d head up Barlow Moor Road to Chorlton for a far better selection of eateries

What kind of thing are you after?

As above, the stereotypical Turkish eggs/avo/sourdough/Flat white combo – assumed it would be wall to wall down there.

There are Reasons why Chorlton isn’t a goer. Don’t know if there’s anything further into W Didsbury e.g. along Lapwing Lane?

Thyme Out West Didsbury is veeeeery good, Nell Lane

Expo Lounge in Didsbury Village do a decent brunch

If you want Turkish food there’s literally a Turkish breakfast/brunch place in Didsbury Village also, called Turkish Sweet Centre- it looks like a sweet shop but there’s a restaurant at the back. I’ve never been but heard its quite good.

Chorlton has some nice places but is hardly worth a 20min Metrolink journey when you’ve got either Didsbury Village or Burton Road in West Didsbury on your doorstep.

(I live in Didsbury Village but as a general rule West Didsbury and Burton Road are much nicer for eating and drinking).

Edit to say I second whoever said Thyme Out- very nice breakfasts there.

Daughter has recently moved to Didsbury – we had a very pleasant meal in Gusto a few weeks ago if you fancy Italian
