1. Thomas Mansell ★★★☆☆

   Came here when it opened and it had it all. Great service, great food and a great place to watch sports with the extra addition of playing retro games for that hit of nostalgia. The food aspect has unfortunately been completely lost. I paid £13 for a burger and chips and it was genuinely the worst food I’ve eaten in Manchester. Even worse in fact than a greasy match-day burger purchased outside the football stadium of your choice (which I do admit I have been partial to). The “beef” on the burger was rubbery and flavourless. The cheese also tasteless and cheap. The fries were fine. If you want to watch some sports and also play some old games with a couple of drinks, this is the place for you. If you wanted to do this whilst enjoying a decent meal, absolutely avoid here until they have resolved this issue. There is absolutely no reason why the food should be that bad anywhere.

   Footie, beer, retro games and a variety of great food - you can't get much better than that! I've been here a few times in the past few weeks, and it's turned into one of my favourite places to hang out in Manchester. A perfect place when the football is on (loads of screens, not too loud, reasonably priced drinks, decent service) and when it's quiet, it's got a chilled vibe with loads of board games and retro games to choose from at the tables (from Snes and Mega Drive to Xbox 360 and PS2). This is a seriously good place in the heart of Manchester (only a few mins walk from Piccadilly train station and Arndale) and well worth a visit. I will be back (repeatedly!).

   Visited this place for first time and very impressed . Great pub food , nice vibe with great music and sports on tv screens but not too intrusive. Lots of people there enjoying the great atmosphere . They also have darts and videogames which people seemed to be enjoying, but we were enjoying the board and trivia games! I will definitely visit again .

   Found Calcio by accident, but so glad we did. Staff are really friendly, the place is clean and so much fun, but on top of ask that the food is absolutely excellent. Really, really excellent. Highly recommended. Will be going back for sure.

   Had been here in its old guise but a friend suggested a visit seeing as though he knows my loves are food, beer, football and video games (not necessarily in that order) Fair to say he nailed the recommendation. Plenty of screens to watch sport or play on the retro consoles (Mario Kart anyone?) and the decor is fantastic, the old magazines in the toilet took me way back. The food was well priced and really tasty, and with Madri on draught I was also well watered. Definitely adding this place to the list of must go's when I'm in the City.

   Went on the second night they’d opened, and they had a bit of a shaky start. The bar staff accidentally put the wrong food order through, we were happy to eat what we were given, but they really pulled it out of the bag when they came over with a portion of their hoi sun duck and chips. Food was amazing, and it’s always good bashing out a couple of super Mario world levels while you wait.
