Restaurants in Macclesfield

The town centre is very attractive, with plenty of great shops, busy little cafes, converted warehouses and cobbled streets to wander along. There are great restaurants in Macclesfield's centre to explore, too. Diners have rated Shalimar very highly for its mix of traditional and new fusion Indian and Bangladeshi dishes. Try the hash bhuna, which combines diced duck with spices, tomato, onion and ginger, grilled in the tandoor oven. Aristo is another hot favourite with diners and a lively Greek restaurant with superb service. Make sure you try some of the delectable homemade baklava with a scoop of vanilla or honey ice cream.

The suburbs of town are also great places to look for quality restaurants. The Viceroy Indian in Bollington, for example, has been delighting the locals for over 15 years. It serves a mouthwatering range of sumptuous curries and spicy Bangladeshi specialities, with plenty of changing house specials. For traditional British food, head to The Legh Arms in Prestbury, which is one of the oldest pubs in the area and packed with charm and original features. Enjoy hearty portions of traditional dishes such as gammon and chips or steak and kidney pudding with a pint of local ale.
