Summat to Ate is situated at 48-50 Market Street, in the heart of Hindley town centre near Wigan. The restaurant premises have a fantastic history dating back to 1856. The premises which where the former Co-op have in more recent years been occupied by the Top Spot nightclub and snooker hall, but the building lay vacant for several years and the building was in a very poor state of repair when the premises were purchased in May 2009.

Father and son team, Dieter Binder & Kai Binder combined experience and ambition to convert the former Top Spot into a state of the art, fine dining restaurant establishment. Due to the state of the building, a full renovation was required to all three floors of the premises including the roof itself, which was in a dangerous state of disrepair. Using the best, most reputable builders and trades personnel in the local area, the dream of a restaurant was achievable.
