What a fantastic place

Fully vegan. A great choice of food and alcohol free so keeps you off the booze for a bit. The staff are lovely and the place is totally chilled. Takes a wee bit for food to appear so I take that that its made fresh so brilliant. Im trying to find what not to like. Even had a great selection of cakes and a choice of hot chocolate!

Pros: Just all round great choice of food, Staff lovely, Nice chilled atmosphere

Cons: Can't think of one. Maybe a wee bit parky at back

Lush little place

I finally got around to visiting and was not disappointed. Firstly, what a charming venue. Yes, it's tucked away and underground, but it's cosy, decked out beautifully, and the staff are super friendly. Unfortunately they were sold out of quite a few things off the menu but what I did have (truffle burger and fries and masala chai latte) were insanely delicious - Wholesome Junkies food, so it was always going to be super tasty!

Good food, friendly staff :)

All vegan place with many burger options. Music was a bit loud but overall a comfy and nicely decorated environment. Also some of the best fries I’ve had in a while 👀

Really cute spot with a lot to look at!

Really friendly staff, with nice vibes and loads of local / vegan products and art to buy.
Food was delicious too!! Tried several small plates and were really happy with each of them!

Top Manchester Brunch

Immediate impression was a little strange because it's in the basement, but inside it's really nice and friendly, so don't be discouraged!
We popped in for brunch and the options were great. I went for the Biscoff French Toast, which was incredibly moreish. The layers of toast were glued together with Biscoff, topped with a fruit compote, and cooked to perfection. I am not exaggerating when I say it was like eating a doughnut. I have quite the sweet tough so this was right up my street. My sister went for the Full English which was just good all-round.
We also tried their hot chocolates which were super silky and smooth (all you could want in the hot chocolate), the salted one was particularly special.
Unfortunately we didn't make it for lunch/dinner, but their burger options were very tempting indeed. Definitely recommend a visit!

Pros: Really Friendly Staff, Good brunch and dinner options, Amazing flavours

Great little place

Arrived for our booking 15 mins before closing and chose two burgers and sides which came quickly. I had the OG burger and my better half had the classic double burger, both with fries. Everything was really tasty and we also enjoyed the ketchup and vegan mayo too. Tried the on tap IPA which was also great.

Pros: All vegan, Tasty food, Friendly service

Awesome Fast Food und Alcohol-Free Beers

I went to Manchster for the Outbreakfest, we have eaten here great burgers and drank the best beers i had in a while.

Also went to the comedy show afterwards, it was all in all awesome.

Cant wait to be here again.

Lovely cafe, great food!!

Great food, drinks and desserts. Stopped here on our way to a gig. The staff were really friendly and despite it being busy and us not having a booking, they made time to fit us in.

Food was great! Such a great variety of options. Ordering a lot of small plates to share with the table worked best. Will definitely be back.

I would live inside Hinterland

I visited Hinterland twice in 12 hours.
I tried the Tots, the Kimchi Burger with bacon, the Truffle Burger with onion rings on the side and Korean Poppers.

I really cannot choose my favourite.

Best place in Manchester!

Alcohol free drinks and vegan food!

As a vegan who doesn't drink, coming across this place while we were in Manchester was perfect and I knew we had to go. I got a loaded mac and cheese and a cider and my partner got a burger and a beer. The food was so good, very saucy. The drinks were refreshing and everything came to a pretty good price. The vibes inside were so nice - lots of coffee and fun snacks to buy. They have lots of events on too if you're in the area - comedy nights, poetry readings. The staff were all friendly too, and I had a little look of their Instagram after our food and they're always posting about what they're up to at the restaurant.
Such a cool concept for a restaurant especially as someone who is vegan and no longer drinks, it's amazing to be able to look at the menu and order absolutely anything and know it'll be suitable for me - and delicious!

Pros: Fully vegan, No alcohol served - perfect for sober vegans, Fun events on

Food is Amazing

Cosy basement level spot tucked away in the Northern Quarter.

Order at the bar for food and drinks, but might take a while to decide what to eat as everything we saw looked delicious.

Highly recommend this spot.

Korean Burger 🍔 was delicious, and we had fries, Korean bites, lemon pesto tater tots, and a lemon whipped tofu with brocolini as side dishes between the five of us.

Great selection of zero alcoholic drinks from beer to cocktails too.

Pros: Delicious Food, Great Zero Alcoholic Options

Delicious mocktails, junk foods

I had two mocktails and they were both delicious, although the portions were tiny. I liked the vibe of the place, including the costumers- unassuming, all ages, all sizes, all walks of life. I just wish that the cocktails were larger and that at least one option was not fried or oily. Don’t get me wrong, those are great too, but my body wasn’t in the mood for burgers. There was one dish with charred vegetables, but it was unfortunately covered in chili oil.

I would definitely go back for cocktails.

Cozy place, but too overpriced

I rarely give 4 stars to vegan restaurants. The place is cozy and has a nice atmosphere, but unfortunately it’s also very loud because the staff talk quite loudly with guests and among themselves. The burgers taste great, but they are very expensive, especially considering they don’t come with fries. The plates are also very small, which makes it difficult to eat the burgers comfortably. Providing only one very thin napkin per guest doesn’t feel enough.
The restroom is extremely narrow and hard to access. Overall, the food is tasty, but the overall experience could be improved.

A great place to eat or just hang out

Lovely atmosphere for socialising without alcohol, pleasant staff, great food if the kitchen is open (all vegan). One of my favourite spots in Manchester.

Amazing

The food was so good and prepared very quickly. The aesthetic of the place was also spot on. The food itself was priced well and you get good portions for what you pay.

Bonus is everything is 1000% vegan

A Sobering Experience!

Great place with a cosy, relaxing atmosphere and wide variety of food and drinks.

We tried a few of their alcohol free drinks with our wholesome junkies food (see my review) and thoroughly enjoyed the craft beers, but not the red wine, which was vinegary.

We also had a sticky toffee biscoff and pecan slice, which were excellent. Staff were really friendly and we would definitely return.

Really enjoyed Hinterland and would definitely go again. The crispy chilli brocolli was by far my favourite dish

Underwhelming

We got the breakfast buns which were very small and came to £25 for two , we were disappointed in how small they were and it said it was a ‘sausage patty’ but we got standard sausages inside of it. Won’t be back again for the price and portion size. Aladdin’s on the corner had more value for money we wish we seen it on the way here.

Brunch menu 🥹❤️☕

My partner said the breakfast burger was the most incredible fulfilling experience of her life 🤣🥲 and she usually skips breakfast food. It really was amazing, so tasty and the drinks were really good too (dark hot choc and black coffee) lovely atmosphere and staff!

Pros: 100% vegan, Quiet and welcoming atmosphere, Lots of events on offer/sober bar
