Shakes & Bites

Shakes & Bites is a dessert parlour and takeaway serving the southern suburbs of Manchester, sitting on the border of Fallowfield, Whalley Range and Withington. It caters to the area's large student population and local families with a counter built around indulgent ice-cream sundaes, thick hand-blended milkshakes and warm sweet snacks made fresh to order, available for collection and delivery across the surrounding neighbourhoods.

The menu leans firmly into ice cream, headlined by the Chocoholic Sundae stacked with luxury chocolate ice cream, chocolate brownie and a crispy wafer, plus Banana, Raspberry Ripple, Minted and Bubbleicious sundaes. Warm cookie dough, sharing bites and a rotating line-up of milkshakes complete the offering, all designed to travel well for a night in. This is a casual sweet-treat stop rather than a sit-down restaurant, and it has become a familiar go-to for after-dinner cravings and late-night dessert runs in south Manchester.
