The restaurants in Denton tend to offer excellent value for money as well as hearty portions. You'll find excellent pub fare in and around the town, quality Indian and Chinese restaurants, and long-standing Italian restaurants as well. If a curry is what you’re craving, then Blue Ocean in the city centre is your best bet. This Denton restaurant is something of an institution and you’ll find dishes like saag paneer with homemade paneer, spinach and coriander marinated in various spices and the special Bailey’s lamb tikka of lamb cooked in the tandoor with coconut, almonds, fresh cream and mango and topped with Bailey’s. A seriously decadent experience without breaking the bank.

Greater Manchester has a rich food heritage and a thriving foodie scene, so look out for local ingredients and speciality dishes at the restaurants across Denton. For example, try local black pudding and Manchester tarts, which are pastry shells filled with raspberry jam, custard and coconut flakes. You'll find these traditional dishes on offer at the British restaurants around Denton as well as some of the gastropubs and cafes, and they’re really well-worth a try.
