About this restaurant

Outstanding value
Great for brunch
Innovative

A short walk from the hustle and bustle of Castlefield, you'll find one of Manchester's best kept secrets, The Banyan Tree. With its understated, elegant decor and laid-back ambience, anyone who enjoys the Northern Quarter's chilled, contemporary vibe will feel at home. Is it a cafe? Is it a bar? Is it a restaurant? Well, it's really all of these. It's whatever you need it to be.
Typically, you'll find business meetings, social drinking and evening dining happening at the Banyan on any given day of the week; one often blending seamlessly into the other. Its appeal is built on two main factors: serene surroundings and high quality food. Not overblown, fine dining; English classics with an Asian twist - and a long, long way from 'pinged' pub food. This is the Banyan's ace in the hole. The Banyan's creative kitchen team provide an ever-changing selection of 'specials' to compliment their standard menu of simple dishes made interesting.

This is a great restaurant/bar with an authentic local feel to it. Food is excellent, service friendly and helpful and very laid back relaxed feel. Recommended as a place to pop in for a drink, breakfast, brunch or dinner.

Fantastic! Great chilled atmosphere with friendly service and great food. The highlight was the acoustic night with young original artists from around Manchester.

I've been numerous times now. Never disappoints. Always tasty food. It's a shame it doesn't get the recognition it deserves.

We booked this restaurant through open table and was disappointed overall. The menu was not the same menu as shown through open table, it was extremely limited. However our party settled on the panko coated aubergine salad, the Cajun burger and the banyan currizza. The salad was enjoyable, the burgers Cajun coating was soggy and the currizza, which came with one of the curries of the day on top of a naan bread and melted mozzarella was cold. We notified one of two members of staff at front of house and this was dealt with straight away and very professionally. The rest of the party had finished eating by the time my dish was returned but it was kindly removed from the bill at the end. For this I would probably return, although it's more of a brunch time place, don't be swayed by the online menu.

Had two fantastical meals at this restaurant, both have been excellent. Menu has good choice, service was friendly and attentive, but most importantly food was tasty.
