Gino D'Acampo Manchester

On the ground floor of INNSiDE by Meliá, Gino D’Acampo brings a sleek Italian sensibility to Manchester.

Part of the celebrity chef’s growing collection, it pairs a warm welcome with a contemporary edge, channelling authentic recipes refined with a modern touch. A chic, light-filled dining room suits everything from family lunches to pre-show suppers and relaxed nights among friends.

The kitchen keeps its compass set firmly on Italy’s regions, favouring high-quality produce and seasonality. Expect the simple done beautifully: bruschetta al pomodoro piled with heritage tomatoes and extra virgin olive oil on ciabatta, or arancine stuffed with beef ragu, mozzarella and basil.

Then come the comforts like risotto al funghi with wild mushrooms, caramelised garlic and extra virgin olive oil, and spaghetti all'aragosta with half lobster, baby plum tomatoes and Calabrian chilli flakes.

Whether gathering in the lounge, dining in the light-filled room or lingering on the terrace, this is a versatile spot with Italian spirit at its core. Book a table, raise a glass, and let Manchester meet la dolce vita.
