About Hatters
An afternoon at Hatters can mean scones and a carefully chosen tea; a Friday night means cocktails that people consistently describe as the best they've had. That range, rare for a neighbourhood bar in Heaton Moor, is what keeps both regulars and first-timers coming back. The cocktails lead the menu in mentions by a distance, but the cakes — carrot cake especially — and the cheeseboard draw their own following, and the afternoon tea draws a crowd well beyond the usual occasion crowd. The food matches the drinks for generosity, and the prices surprise people in the right direction.
