LOOKING for somewhere nice for brunch?
Maybe you want to treat the women in your life to a mid-morning meal on Mother’s Day.
Or perhaps you’d like a traditional Sunday roast with all the trimmings.
If so, OpenTable has 100 of the top destinations for brunch and Sunday lunch in the UK and several restaurants are on our doorstep.
The list was based on more than 1.2 million reviews submitted this year on OpenTable, an online reservation service that allows easy booking at eateries across the country and then lets diners write reviews.
From The Hop Vine in Ormskirk and The White Horse Churton in Chester to Dukes 92, Escape to Freight Island and The Restaurant at The Refuge in Manchester there are plenty of top places to choose from.

This popular place reopened exactly one year ago following extensive refurbishments.
They serve uncomplicated, unpretentious and delicious food created by a team that loves what they do and wants to make each dining experience special.
The top-billed roast dinners use the best quality meat from UK butchers, rich and dark gravy and Yorkshire puddings that “double as a work of art”.

The Hop Vine, Ormskirk
The Hop Vine, formerly The Royal Hotel, was built in 1874 and was the main stopping point for goods being transported to and from the old Turnpike road - the A59.
The Royal as it was known has served the community and travellers alike.
To the rear of the building in the historic cobbled garden, you will find the venue’s own brewery housed in the stables.
From ales to YPAs and blonde beers, The Hop Vine is a small producer using primary English hops brewing exclusively in house for The Hop Vine and their sister pub the Legh Arms.
Customers love the “huge portions” and say the food is “always fresh and delicious”.
The Manchester venues that made the top 100 were:
Ducie Street Warehouse, Manchester
Dukes 92, Manchester
Escape To Freight Island, Manchester
Piccolino Caffe Grande, Manchester
The Blues KItchen, Manchester
The Restaurant at The Refuge, Manchester
