The Knowhere Guide

Eating and Drinking in Handforth, Greater Manchester*

Handforth, Greater Manchester Pubs, Cafes, Coffee Shops and Restaurants

Food

• I honestly, genuinly recommend Pearl City. However, if a meteor has struck the earth and it is closed, try Lees.
• the new grove for chips and the hanforth takeaway for kebabs
• The Village Take Away, The New Grove, Lee's Chinese.
• Loads in Wilmslow - bring a Mortgage ! Tons of Kebab places etc. in Handforth

Pubs

• bulls head waggon n horses freemassons and the mermaid recently reopened as youth club
• Well how common are you on a scale of 1 - 10?? 1-3 should try the Mermaid, 3-8 the Freemasons, and the posher crowd the Bulls Head. The more nostalgic of you could sit and weep outside the flats which replaced the legendary Greyhound.
• wagon and horses 'freshfaced'
• The Bullshead Millers
• The Bulls Head - A great place to go for drinks and humour as I, Patrick Du Foster will be working there to ask questions such as "Jay Dee Und Lemonade"?? In my noticeable Soooth Afreeekan accent.
• Loads, again, bring a Mortgage

Cafes and Coffee Shops

• the a few the one next to mick n maggies is the nicest mmmmm bacon sausage n egg pilot
• Faultys apparently has ok food and boasts a phschotic manageress... but this may be mere speculation. I recommend you just go to Marks and Sparks. Or Wilmslow if you happen to be rich enough to own your own island.
• Fawltys where the dude gives us free stuff (the belfry bar staff)
• A good place to get a drink or soe lunch, or just sit and have a chat with friend is the cafe on the same side of the road as Spar, but opposite Kwik Save. It's got some Faulty Towers memoribilia piuctures on the walls. You can get a breakfast nice and cheap and they make a good cuppa.

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
