A new Mediterranean-inspired restaurant has opened its doors at Greater Manchester’s Red Hall Hotel.

Mélange offers up a curated menu that blends Mediterranean inspiration with subtle British influences.

Inspired by the French word for ‘a varied mixture’, the new restaurant captures the essence of the Med’s vibrant cuisine while honouring the comforting traditions of British dining. Dishes on offer include lamb infused with spices, warm goat’s cheese salad with red wine-poached pear, and Mediterranean-style seafood risotto. British favourites are given a unique twist, like buttermilk-soaked fried chicken and Beef Wellington wrapped in Chef’s special pastry.

The restaurant brings an element of interaction to the table, with dishes that encourage diners to engage with their food, including a signature tapenade served in a rustic mortar and pestle, with freshly baked bread.

Interiors meanwhile are designed to evoke the relaxed sophistication of the Mediterranean coast. Lush greenery, natural textures and a palette of soft blues and sandy beiges create a welcoming yet elegant atmosphere. The space, which seats up to 80 guests, is completed by views of the surrounding Lancashire countryside.

“Mélange is about celebrating the warmth of family and friends, the joy of sharing good times, and creating lasting memories,” say owners Priyanka and Gourav Batra. “It’s where British tradition meets Mediterranean flair, bringing love, life and laughter to the table. We’ve created a space where every meal feels like a celebration, and we can’t wait to share it with you.”
