Winsome: Setting the Standard for Sustainable Dining in Manchester
- Posted By The Growth Company
Located on Princess Street, Winsome is redefining modern dining with sustainability at its core. Known for its innovative approach to food and deep commitment to ethical sourcing, Winsome offers a dining experience built around reducing waste, supporting local producers and delivering high-quality, environmentally conscious meals.
Winsome has adopted a whole animal butchery model, purchasing entire animals and designing menus that make use of every part. A single pig might appear across multiple dishes ranging from cold cuts and confit mussels with trotter, to pork chops, bacon, a weekly pie and more. This method significantly reduces waste and ensures all parts of the animal are valued, aligning sustainability with culinary creativity.
Produce is sourced weekly, based entirely on what is seasonally available from local growers. This not only supports Manchester’s agricultural community but also minimises emissions from long-distance transportation. The menu changes frequently, shaped by what is fresh and regionally harvested, reinforcing Winsome’s commitment to low-impact, high-integrity dining.
Wherever possible, Winsome partners with sustainable suppliers such as Wildfarmed and Swaledale. These relationships strengthen the restaurant’s sourcing strategy and ensure the supply chain is aligned with the restaurant’s environmental values.
For those seeking an intentional, environmentally responsible food experience, Winsome offers a compelling choice. With its focus on full utilisation of ingredients, support for local supply chains and bold seasonal menus, Winsome proves that modern dining can be both sustainable and exceptional.
