The 30 Best Beverage options in Manchester

“Amazing home cooked food, such great balanced flavours and truly delicious, healthy menu. Tasted like real Eastern European cooked in the home, which is actually what the lovely host told us: all cooked by his wife. Unbelievable desert, nothing was too heavy, but rich and layered tastes. Wine didn't disappoint either. Looking forward to trying again!”

“Dishoom Spinningfields is one of my favourite restaurants in Manchester. When it first opened back in 2018, it was Dishoom’s first restaurant in Northern England, and since then they’ve set a remarkable standard of both food and service quality and certainly left me coming back for more. The interior is super impressive, cool and unique. Dishoom is based on the old Irani cafés in Bombay, and the interior is so large and feels like no other restaurant in the city. My go-to dishes are the Chicken Ruby with Basmati Rice and occasionally the Gunpowder Potatoes. The portion sizes are generous, and the rich spices of the curry are super good — it’s obvious they use great quality ingredients and seasonings. For drinks, again the selection is vast, with my favourites being the regular Chai and the Mango Lassi, which are both really good. There is always a staff member walking around topping up tap water, so you’ll never go thirsty. The pricing is a little high, but I feel it is worth it for the quality. Matka Holders can also roll a dice at the end of their meal to potentially earn everything for free, food and alcohol included, during certain times. This makes it all fun, being able to put the meal on the roll of a dice. Due to having an allergy, I can scan a QR code on the menu for the latest information, and all the staff members are well trained in dealing with allergies. They’re aware of coeliac disease and the danger of cross-contamination, and always keep my items separate from my friends’ when I dine in a group. Overall, this is one of the places to be in Manchester if you’re looking for good food with fantastic allergy awareness, overall ambience/vibes, food and service quality. It’s a place that you can go for a special occasion or even a quick lunch (although a lunch menu / meal-deal offer would make it even more enticing for sure!).”

“My son and my daughters birthday treat. We didn't book, thee restaurant was busy and we were asked to wait a few minutes whilst a table was being prepared. I ordered the pan fried Salmon, the better half ordered the chicken sizzler, the birthday boy ordered the bang bang and the birthday girl a Chicken burger (yes she's your typical 11 year old. The foodwas geat topped with excellent service from Asad. He treated the birthday twins to the best cheesecake I've ever tasted and a Brownie. Food 10/10 Service 10/10”

“This is the first time we have been to the cafe but it wont be the last. The food was good quality and well presented. The service was excellent and the staff were friendly and welcoming.”

“Always finding what I need. Top quality products! Friendly staff and a “home away from home” feeling!”

“Fatayar and Shawarma is a great spot for delicious shawarma and fatayar. The shawarma is packed with juicy, well-seasoned meat, and the fatayar is freshly baked with flavorful fillings. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. The takeaway service is quick, making it perfect for a fast and tasty meal. Whether you’re craving a classic wrap or a warm pastry, this place won’t disappoint. Highly recommended for a satisfying bite on the go!”

“A hidden gem. My son had his 5th birthday party there today and had a fantastic time. The staff (especially our party host and who l believe to be the manager) went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and were so accommodating- nothing was too much trouble, nothing felt rushed and all the children looked like they were having a great time. Very reasonable prices too which is a bonus! will definitely be visiting there again soon.”

“Pretty good for a small shop. They do have considerable amount of South indian, sri lankan groceries.”

“Lovely place, right next to Heaton Park metro. Only had a brew and a cake but it’s spacious, light and airy, with nice, big booths and a sunny back yard (looks like a good set up for DJ’s too) Coffee was good, sweet stuff was from Silver Apples, so pretty familiar and more than decent quality. Staff were super friendly. Will definitely head back and try some proper food and drinks soon”

“Perfect. No phones. No swearing. Great beer. Friendly locals. An exterior more in keeping with the French Riviera than Burnage.”

“Very nice place to go and buy groceries and meat here. Staff are helpful too only downside is parking not so good as can be hard to park here plus can get very crowded inside down the isle and meat area”

“Lovely setting. Great service. Their champagne never disappoints and the olives were so tasty. Great place to break up a shopping trip....have been visiting for years and always enjoy.”

“Absolutely superb. What a great start to the day, from the welcome to the service & after service. I was served by a gentleman called Dillion, he really understands his customers and was exemplary in which he held himself whilst attending to his customers, from observation he anticipated customers needs and was well presented, well spoken & polite. Food was fresh and piping hot. Served with care. He and his colleagues made our visit such a lovely experience. Thank you and see you all soon.”

“Good selection of food and drinks. Can actually get decent fresh produce and food vs the offies. Staff have been nice and the prices seem fair from what I’ve noticed. Clean and have a full stock of goods. Would recommend for grocery needs.”

“Ordered tonight and they didnt get the pizza toppings correct, a quick call to the restaurant and they had us a replacement pizza out and it was with us within 20 minutes. Great service here with no fuss or arguing. Perfect service given to fix a small problem. 10/10 would order again just for the fact they took ownership of their mistake and fixed the issue.”

“Very fast and did us a good deal. Thanks :)”

“Tina has been my dentist for a few years now and I trust her completely. I have many issues with my teeth and I'm always confident that she will always make the right decision for the treatment I need. I wouldn't hesitate on recommending Love the Dentist”

“I am of Afro Caribbean origin and I went to Frank’s Salon today at the recommendation of a friend. I had a warm welcome and an amazing experience. I had a Relaxer and a trim and some of Frank’s special treatments. I told Frank that I wanted life and a bounce to my hair as it was lost due to over processing. Frank didn’t fail I walked away feeling fantastic with my hair bouncing on my shoulders. Normally after a Relaxer my hair smells of chemicals for over a week. Not when Frank did my hair, it smells absolutely amazing. I will be returning in 3 weeks for a treatment and some highlights”

“After moving to Hale over a year ago now, I had put off trying to find a new hairdresser as finding one you can really trust is hard. So when I discovered The Knot on Instagram, I was comforted by their customer-first philosophy and the emphasis placed on an individual and tailored experience. My actual experience in the salon matched and exceeded my expectations! I was offered a drink on arrival and was given a beautifully presented mint tea with my favourite biscoff biscuits. I was lucky enough to have an appointment with salon owner David who made me feel comfortable right from the start and was so accommodating to my needs. He was so personable and kind, I really enjoyed our conversation, so much so I forgot I was having my hair done! The end result was nothing short of perfect and exactly what I had asked for. I feel so much more confident in myself and I am extremely grateful to David. He is an exceptional stylist and I will absolutely be returning and recommending the salon to others, including my mum who has just moved here and is looking for a new trusted hairdresser! Thank you to the team ❤️”

“My child loved Ferry Link from the first day! Children have great fun every day and don't want to come home! Staff are really nice and take good care of children. It has a lovely familiar atmosphere!”

“We had used three of the white taxis for the groom and groomsmen to be taken to our wedding venue in Clitheroe. Great service and swift communication if and when it was needed. The team had been very accommodating when plans had to change. We would definitely recommend their services for others couples that may require transport for their own wedding days Thank you very much!”
