No.4 serves modern English food. Tucked away down Warburton street in Didsbury village, which is the last of the original cobbled streets. Small, intimate and inviting, housed in a building of nearly 200 years old, it’s split over two storeys with slightly wonky walls and floors and is nestled amongst an array of privately run businesses from bookshop to gift shop.
