Am trying to sort out what we're doing the day before we travel - we're intending staying overnight the night before we travel at Manchester Airport, either at Bewleys or the Travel lodge. I would like to eat out somewhere away from the hotel, are there any restaurants along the lines of TGI or Frankie and Bennys where we could get a taste of the States before we get there?

Have tried looking on Google maps but I don't have the relevent qualifications to use that particular site, it keeps recommending places in Switzerland to me!!! :badpc:
 
Will you have a car?

If so, why not try the Trafford Centre. It is not too far and they have a great selection of restaurants - check out the website. It is also great for any last minute bits and bobs.

Looks like we are neighbours - we are in Hemsworth, nr Pontefract.

:wave2: Yeah not too far from you, though I used to live even closer, South Elmsall!

We're leaving the car at home this time and ideally wanted to stay around the airport, I thought there would be a few choices around the airport but it appears not, bit disappointed to be honest! :worried:
 
I agree, the food selection at Manchester is pretty rubbish. In the past we have usually stayed at the Crowne Plaza so have tended to eat there - they have a nice restaurant called Sampans that does oriental food - nice but a bit pricey. We will be staying at Bewleys I think in September so will probably go to the Trafford Centre.

Other than the hotels there isn't really much - although I think there is some sort of Brewsters type place nearby but again I think that involves a drive. Not sure if you can get a train from the airport to the Trafford Centre.
 

You can get a train into the city centre and there are loads of eating options there - including Selfridges Food Hall and many choices in Printworks (where they have a TGI Fridays, I think). There's also a cinema in Printworks in case you fancy a film as well.
