Two Mancunian restaurants have been named in the top five spots to get a Sunday Roast in the UK.
Hawksmoor won out in the study from bookmaker Betway, with Elnecot in Ancoats fifth. The research used its own index score — generated by the number of hashtags each location has racked up on Instagram, as well Google and Tripadvisor reviews, with the lower the overall index score the higher the ranking.
And top of the tree was the Deansgate eatery, which offers succulent slow-roasted meat served with beef dripping potatoes and vegetables, with an overall index score of five. It beat out its sister restaurant in London.
