Tattu Manchester takes group dinners from about ten guests, private dinners for up to 45 in The Parlour, receptions for 100 in the Rose Garden, and full hire for up to 190 seated or 200 standing. The restaurant serves modern Chinese cooking at 3 Hardman Square, off Gartside Street, in the Spinningfields business district of central Manchester. The brand was founded in 2015 by two brothers and calls Manchester its home city; anchor and rope details in the design refer to it.
Seminars and company events
The venue does not sell meeting rooms or day packages. Its business use is the evening: a client dinner in The Parlour, a team party in the Rose Garden, or full hire of every area for a company celebration or a product launch. A Christmas offer for groups runs each winter. Groups of 10 to 50 can also be seated in the restaurant without privatizing a room. The events team adapts the floor plan to the occasion and works from set sharing menus or a canapé list, with drinks packages fixed in advance, which keeps the bill predictable for a company host.
Rooms and capacities
The Parlour, on the lower level, is the private dining room. It has its own entrance, bar and restrooms, and one-way glass gives a view into the Rose Garden and the restaurant above while keeping the table out of sight. It seats 45 at one long table or takes 60 for a canapé event.
The Rose Garden, on the ground floor, is an indoor space dressed with red flowers and anchor pendants. Its booths seat six to eight guests each, which suits a group that wants the energy of the room rather than a closed door. Hired exclusively, it holds 100 for a canapé and drinks reception.
The Main Restaurant, on the first floor, sits under a rope-woven ceiling with a large cherry blossom tree at its center. It can be hired exclusively for a seated dinner of up to 100, across booths and tables.
Full venue hire combines all areas, for 190 seated or 200 at a standing reception.
Catering
The kitchen cooks modern Chinese food on seasonal menus built for sharing. Groups choose a set menu served in waves, for example dumplings and prawn toast, then beef, black cod and rice, then dessert. For standing events, the canapé list covers dim sum, skewers, spring rolls and small plates, with vegetarian options; canapés are offered to groups of 16 or more. Drinks packages pair Prosecco or Champagne with wine and a signature cocktail, and the bar also lists sake and spirits.
History and setting
The interior relies on low light, dark wood, rope and the blossom tree, so the rooms read as evening spaces. The restaurant is a business affiliate of Les Clefs d'Or, the hotel concierge association, which helps when booking a table for visiting clients through a hotel. It opens every day from noon until late.
Getting there
Spinningfields sits between Deansgate and the River Irwell, within walking distance of the main shopping streets and of several hotels. Salford Central is the closest rail station, and Manchester Airport is linked to the city center by train.
