On June 3, Rendition, a new premium restaurant and bar offering set to revolutionise the Manchester food and drink scene, opens its doors.

As a seasonally inspired restaurant, Rendition’s menu will shift according to what local produce is available therefore meaning that all features of the menu, besides the Rendition Classics, will change routinely.

Rendition’s beverage offerings, in alignment with the excellent food menu, will provide customers with a plethora of unique, exciting, and sophisticated drink options to enjoy in the bar.

The cocktail list includes; the Tea Party, four white spirits, lychee, apple, coconut, lemon, “boiled” with CO2 and served in a teacup; the Illegal Margarita, a smoky take on the classic with illegal Joven Mezcal, Mandarine Napoleon, lemon & agave; and the Late Breakfast, Tanqueray Gin, Campari, Cocchi Vermouth di Torino, coffee & elderflower topped with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic Water.
