The Ivy Spinningfields Brasserie – Manchester

The Ivy Spinningfields Brasserie sits in the heart of Manchester’s business district, an assured three-storey presence where polished brasserie classics share a home with the theatrical Ivy Asia and a leafy rooftop garden.

It’s the sort of place that works as well for a smart client lunch as it does for a languid Sunday in the city.

Private dining at The Ivy Spinningfields Brasserie

For group dining and private events in Manchester, the main brasserie offers a dedicated private dining space that feels in step with its surroundings: stylish, confident and designed to make hosting straightforward rather than stressful.

While Ivy Asia Spinningfields and the rooftop terrace often steal the headlines, it is in the private rooms of the brasserie that more focused occasions quietly come into their own.

The Dalton Room

The Dalton Room, on the ground floor, provides a bright, contemporary setting for seated dining and drinks receptions, with capacity for up to 35 guests.

Floor-to-ceiling windows allow natural light to pour in, giving the room an open, welcoming feel even on the greyest Manchester afternoon.

Marble flooring and striking artwork add a touch of theatre without tipping into formality, making it equally comfortable for corporate meetings, private parties or intimate city weddings.

Menus follow The Ivy’s familiar, crowd-pleasing formula: modern brasserie dishes with broad appeal, thoughtfully arranged into set menus for groups to keep planning simple.

There is enough choice to accommodate different tastes and dietary requirements, but not so much that ordering becomes a chore. Paired with well-paced, unobtrusive service, it makes The Dalton Room a reassuring option for hosts who want their event to feel polished yet relaxed – a space that quietly supports the occasion rather than competing with it.
