Why we love Altrincham
Home to our head office, we think Altrincham is one of the best places in the UK and The Times backs us up, naming Altrincham as one of the best places to live in the country in 2022 - but we think Altrincham is a great place to work too.
Altrincham (or Alty as locals call it) is home to a thriving independent business scene meaning there is always something new and interesting to sample - from food and drink through to shopping and entertainment.
You will also find a vast range of your favourite national chains from the Great British High Street.
Why Altrincham is
a great place to work
We asked #TeamD2R what they think of Altrincham - they had lots to say and even shared some useful recommendations

Best place to grab lunch in Altrincham
“Loads of contenders but my go to is Oxford Road Café!”
"Pita Box is great! It is a healthy-ish takeaway place where you can get delicious boxes of salad or pita wraps. I love a lentil salad box or a lamb wrap with kale and carrots. The people who work in there are really lovely and it's about a 5 minute stroll from the office, right in the middle of Altrincham."
"I usually pop to M&S or Boots for an easy sandwich or wrap but I love the pizza place in the market."
