The potato itself was nice however the topping was bland and insufficient in quantity- I would not not go again I got Prawn with salad and it was £7.50
One word to describe SpudULike and that's simply unique, the jacket itself was fluffy and flavourful and the toppings could not be faulted (coleslaw, beans and cheese), although everything was of a high standard the selection felt very limited when I questioned staff about this they stated this is the selection they get provided and do not have any answers to why it is not more diverse, £8 - 9 for a meal deal I find to be exceptional with it being in Trafford Centre where food can be overall priced. Please diversy options can't have a Spud without Tuna, I understand some individuals can not have this but it's nice to have it as an option. 4/5 for SpudULike! And I definitely did like.
Very poor experience. Went there given the James Martin Brand and I am a big fan. However the portion sizes were abysmal. Ordered the chickpea spud and the quantity of chikpeas was very small. Went back and spoke to the person serving (named M...h) however she was so rude and said that that is all you get. I told her I would complain to James Martin and she said 'be my guest'. Would love a contact email of James Martin to write to him directly.
Nothing good I can say about it, extremely overpriced. Almost £20 for 2 potatoes and 2 Coke Zero, I Atleast expected a decent portion size, how wrong was I, unfortunately I can’t upload pictures of what was served but it wouldn’t of looked out of place in a prison canteen, no side salad or anything, potato was a little lumpy with hard pieces in it, skin was dry and over cooked. Never again.
As anyone who knows me knows I am very partial to a jacket potato. Being a personal trainer I think that a jacket potato is the best meal you can have. Anyone who has attended one of my fitness classes will tell you that my ideal post workout meal is a jacket potato with baked beans. My clients also know that I recommend a jacket spud 3 hours before a workout and it’s something I advise professional footballers. Now I am a firm advocate of fresh food and not fast food junk. Today I went to Spud U Like in the Manchester Trafford centre. I was served by a very pleasant lady called Claire Appleton. She couldn’t have been more pleasant and helpful. I asked for a jacket spud with beans and cheese. Now this was not fast food junk. This was fresh food straight out of the oven. The potato was crisp and fresh, the beans and cheese were fantastic and it was just like my Mum’s home cooking. Now that is the highest compliment I can give. My only regret is that there aren’t more Spud U Likes up and down the UK but I am going to make a point of getting a jacket spud from any branch any time I see one. Trust me it’s well worth the money- a first class meal fit for a member of the royal family for a very reasonable price. I was truly shaken but not stirred.
When an Ulster man is in Manchester he just wants a backed bean spud, and SpudUlike didn't disappoint the food was well presented and the area to sit in was clean and well presented was glad went here. Thanks for the lovely spud
Nice selection of the traditional jacket potato with various fillings you can choose from. Decent prices. Only 4 stars because there should have been some butter on the potato before the filling was added, it missed that butter flavour. And the potato skin was very dry if I didn’t coat it with the filling first. The plastic knife and fork and polystyrene carton were expected for a fast food outlet.
Utter waste of time. Before the busiest tea time on a Monday evening I was told no potatoes. Try back in 20 mins. Returned 30 mins later to be told No potatoes try again in 20 mins.. This was after I tried to finder a member of staff. (See photo) I then email them the following day to be told it was teething problems and they would send some vouchers to compensate. Still waiting!! James Martin you need to look into this as it is not good for your reputation. If your going good look.
Well I Had to Think Before I Went Since It Seemed Very Quiet. The Reason I Had to Think was Because The One In White Rose had Very Bad Service. I had the Chickpeas One, it definitely had the flavour to it but only thing which puts about this place is the price. It's not cheap. Like for a jacket potato you'll end up spending some serious money. They probably need to review their prices.
