Macclesfield's newest bar wants to bring more people to their part of town.

Suburban Green, which is located next to new boutique hotel BOHOTEL on 88-90 Chestergate, offers long opening hours plus a luxury food and drink menu.

Macclesfield resident Cal Gregg-Williams told Macclesfield Nub News what Suburban Green is all about.

"We're a primarily a bar with great cocktails, lovely wine list, and local people", said Cal.

"We're a nice place for people to come and enjoy a few drinks with friends or family.

"On top of that we serve a delicious small plates menu as well.

"They are all starter-sized dishes, no particular cuisine really, but our chef Jose is Portuguese so there is a slight Iberian influence. We use what is in season too."

The Macclesfield menu is a little smaller, just by virtue of being a smaller venue, but features local products such as Flour Water Salt, Forest Gin, and their own-branded draught beer called Chestergate Pilsner.

Expect to see people from all over at Suburban Green, as hotel guests will come here for breakfast or a late night tipple.

Alongside the intimate seating indoors, they have a courtyard outside which adds to the vibe, however, no alcohol can be consumed there.

Cal co-owns the Suburban Green brand with business partner Martin Lowe. They already have a Suburban Green just nine miles from Macclesfield, with one being a fixture of Hawthorne Lane in Wilmslow for over five years.

"Living here myself I had been saying for a while now that we should open up in Macclesfield", added Cal.

"There is a lot of investment going on and some really cool places opening here. A lot of people are having more nights out here than they wouldn't have normally a few years ago.

"But when I've been trying to get an early morning breakfast in town, particularly on Sunday or Monday, nowhere seems to be open before 10am.

"So we're open from 8am, have a lovely selection of coffees and things to eat."

Breakfast items include pancakes with toppings such as bacon and maple syrup or banana and Nutella. 

There is also granola, spinach muffins, and bacon sandwiches. 

Veggie options to start the day with include Avocado, feta and poached eggs on sourdough, along with nectarine with honey and goats cheese on sour dough.

Breakfast is served until 2pm, and brunch and small plates can be ordered from 12pm.

The best-selling post-morning meals are the chicken thighs, flat iron steak, and a Portuguese stew.

Other unique dishes include a saganaki, which is a fried Greek cheese, and shakshouka which is a Middle Eastern breakfast dish with eggs and tomatoes.

In regards to specific dietary requirements, gluten free bread is available, and they will happily cater for vegans if asked.

While the high street directly opposite the town centre is the busier part of Chestergate, Suburban Green wants to stage a claim for Chestergate's west side as an up-and-coming part of town.

"We're hoping to get a bit more activity around this side of town in the days and the evening," explained Cal.

"We love The Picturedrome, but it closes at 10pm every day, and if you want another drink you have to walk to the other side of town.

"Round this end, there's a real lack of bars. So at the weekends we're open a little bit longer.

"Elsewhere in town there's loads of people, but we would like to keep people around this area a little bit more.

"One of our mates in Wilmslow has just bought a plot across the road from us as well.

"Macclesfield is getting better and better. The train lines are a big draw and the houses are still reasonably priced.

"People wouldn't be investing big if there wasn't something behind it.

"It is really surprising me the variety of people who are staying in the hotel, and we're delighted to serve them and the people of Macclesfield.

"We've had people here staying on holiday, we've had businessmen who would then go into Manchester.

"There's nearly 60,000 people in Macclesfield so it is definitely a big enough town to support something like this and all the small independents all over the place."

Open seven days a week, you can head into Suburban Green during weekdays from 8am to 10pm.

They are open until 11pm on Saturdays and 6pm on a Sunday.
