The 30 Best Authentic pub experience in Manchester

“Picked up a special pizza from here. MacAttack, was so good and fresh. (Halal options were also available for pretty much every pizza) Good quality ingredients and such friendly staff. Pizza made in front of you, quick and efficient. Can tell the owner takes pride in culinary craftsmanship. Definitely come here if you’re wanting some good pizza. Burys got a gold mine right here.”

“Had a really great experience, the atmosphere was nice with really friendly staff who were accommodating to my food allergies and made us feel at home. Reasonably priced for excellent food!”

“I've always had good service here and the food is ok.”

“I don't review often but this was too good to not review, Oldham's HIDDEN GEM - Went in for the first time yesterday, very friendly Chinese family run business, was met by I believe the lovely mum at first! Ordered 1. Fish 2. Salt and Pepper Chicken 3. Chips 4. Curry Sauce Very short wait time, cooked fresh with huge portions at a low cost! Was absolutely delicious especially the Salt and Pepper Chicken, I will be ordering this again and again. The family enjoyed it so much we went for a second time today, definitely the best curry sauce in Oldham!!! They threw in a free incredibly large bag of prawn crackers which paired lovely with the curry sauce!!! I went and got the Chicken chow mein and King prawn chow mein. Order taken by the lovely boy that works there, very friendly and kind explaining the different items they have! Even took the time to ensure all items were within my dietary restrictions :D Both were incredibly well cooked and flavourful, loved it!!! This is definitely going to have to be a repeated visit even though its a 10 minute drive from me!!! Everything is incredibly fresh, very fast service, lovely workers there, the Man Sun is amazing!!! Not sure why the other reviews are awful when this is one of the best if not the best chinese chippy I have ever been to.”

“Top pub great staff brilliant owners cheap beer great atmosphere and superb acts”

“Amazing experience food was gorgeous as always brilliant staff, we were served by lottie and luca they both had a great attitude and always had smiles on their faces”

“We booked for food for 10 people on a Saturday night. It was very busy, as to be expected at that time. When we ordered food we were told there could be quite a wait as it was such a big order and only 2 people in the kitchen. The starters arrived in about 15 minutes and mains very shortly that. Hats off to Keegan and Andy in the kitchen as that was a quick service and the food was great, everything exactly as we ordered. Liam who was serving us was great too, making sure we had everything, checking we were ready for mains and even helping me bring I’d ordered at the bar to the table as the food had been brought out. I don’t think he could have done more for us. I would definitely go back and wouldn’t be worried about going a such a busy time like I would with other places. Thanks to everyone, it was booked for my Dad’s 60’th and he had a great time too!!”

“Can't put my fork down long enough to not type and eat at the same time. I thought I'd tasted all there was to taste. I go out to eat a lot and this is the best food in Salford.”

“Second time I’ve tried this chippy and both times have been great! Not sure where the bad reviews come from? Salt and pepper chips were nice and spicy and the mini veg spring rolls were perfect! Tried the curry sauce and battered sausage as well and they were great also! Will definitely be ordering from here again, our new favourite chinese!”

“Please can all our customers accept our apologies for over the last few weeks for any chip issues you may have encountered, potato’s have seasons and unfortunately July / August are mixed bags which is out of our control, the mixed potatoes all fry differently. We now have the new season potatoes in stock to provide the quality of chips we are all used to from the Frydays team”

“Amazing place, the host was great, would recommend”

“Had a few drinks outside now it's finally better weather. I had Heineken and it was good. Can't fault this place. Good outside if it's sunny. I would definitely go back and recommend drinking here.”

“We had a wonderful lunch. The service was spot on. Not rushed, relaxed, but professional. The atmosphere is lovely, and we love the location, overlooking exchange square, it feels so light and bright. We mostly had pasta, and one risotto, and all the food was excellent. Overall, a really great experience, and I would recommend this restaurant to pretty much anyone.”

“This was our go to during the pandemic (when things were open, of course!). Lovely staff and great service! The decor is great, TVs everywhere which was great for the football games and even the manager is lovely! We will definitely miss it now it’s back open as a nightclub/bar again.”

“it is in a mall, but it's cool because you can people watch easily. and the music is bumpin. the food slaps. I ate my panini so fast I forgot to take a photo. the counter lady was nice and friendly. it was a yummy sandwich. edit: I ran back for a photo of the bar”

“Great place, amazing food and service! Special thanks to Carl!”

“Been to all the different peri peri places, but this one is still the best. Don’t believe the negative reviews. 99% of the time the food is top notch. We come from Batley regularly, which is 40 minutes away, like many of our other compadres. The food is spicy, so don’t complain that you can’t taste anything else but spice. Genuine review with genuine picture to offset the bad reviews left by people. Been coming here for approx 18 years, but we do love hot food.”

“Well spoken staff well manerd. Nice Freindly staff. Offer a range of hot food. Love the fish and chips”

“I've come to Manchester for work and was recommended Crown King and they delivered straight to the hotel. The food arrived piping hot and I believe it was one of the managers who delivered our food. He was very polite. The food was exceptional. The onion bhaji was so crispy and tasted of fried onions. Delicious with the mint raita. We had naan,chicken pakora, rice ( fluffy sepeate grains, perfectly cooked) chicken bhuna, chicken korma, chicken tikka starters ,poppadom, chips. The portions sizes are good. Easily feed 2, possibly even 3. Not greasy and very flavourful.”

“I ordered delivery but got thrown off when I saw all the negative reviews. I had a great experience. I got a buy 1 get 1 free pizza deal which tasted great, and it got delivered on-time and warm. I have no complaints”

“Can't fault the place, very quiet and peaceful and tidy”

“very good food, i am sure i will go there again price is very good”

“Had the movie night box and it was amazing. Loads of food, burgers were so tasty. Loved the cheese sauce. Came on time, friendly service 100% recommend. Great value for money.”

“Food was delicious. All the Caribbean flavours, without too much spice. Portions were small but sufficient. Works out approx £10 per head. Would definitely recommend.”
