British pub drink selection in Manchester

“Great local pub with friendly people and good atmosphere”

“Really good Chinese with very tasty dishes and good service. They have a separate bar and some high tables for people who want to eat small plates. Free parking behind the restaurant. Recommended.”

“The Birches is a very welcoming pub, great atmosphere with an open fireplace to warm any weary traveller. A great selection of beers and larger, I had a glass of their Australian Shiraz, which was very nice; much nicer than what is usually served in pubs. Food is served using locally sourced produce. It is traditional, very well cooked, and served on nice warm plates. Recommended to all.”

“First time here in a long time and it was really nice ..good choice of beer”

“Google did not hear my search for the Gait in correctly and directed me to this by mistake. I did not attend but Google assumed that I had and listed my review for the Gait inn at Millington I'm error. So this is to correct it. No fault of the Gate which I will attend next time I am in their location. I'm sure it's fine but I only post about my experience not Google errors.”

“Free parking, great atmosphere, dog friendly, excellent food and beer garden. The staff were polite so overall I will definitely recommend this place to everyone.”

“I luv this place respect the staff and they respect me recommend jo as the 1 nicest managers all staff a fab berry clean pub atmosphere is amazing xxx”

“I am very happy I stayed at the Waterside Hotel and had breakfast there. They take good care of the guests and accommodate funny requests when possible. My special thanks to Adele, she has a good eye for detail and contributed to starting the days on a good mood =) Also thanks to kitchen staff! Good work! Those egg Benedict... And the pancakes... Delicious! Greetings from Room 31.”

“Great homely pub, superb atmosphere, very friendly bar staff and clientele. Definitely recommended.”

“It looks really good after changing from Thornberries .more cosy and modern. Food service was so good”

“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.”

“Recently renovated and is now actually worth going inside! They were making all the new menu food photos while I was in last. That food looked really good! Beer is good and wine selection is also good. Breakfast is also good!”

“This is a lovely pub house with some outdoor tables. It’s so leisure to sit between the green building and a grassland. The fish and chip is perfect and the fried onion is crispy enough. I really enjoyed the chocolate sundae too.”

“We absolutely love it here! are regulars at Mottram wood because as a family of 6 we find that it has everything we need for all of us. Great food, friendly staff, a good play area for the kids and an outside area. And then the food is decent pub grub at a very reasonable price. We find it to be the best play area / restaurant around Manchester. We came here for Christmas dinner which was great and so reasonably priced and today my son just had his 6th birthday party at the wacky warehouse. Alex and Jess in the play area are outstanding and can’t do enough for you and the kids adore them too.”

“Scott has been walking my dog, Rupert, for nearly 1.5 years. He started doing puppy visits initially until he was vaccinated which he then joined the group walks. Throughout it all Scott has been amazing with him and Rupert gets so excited every time he gets picked up! The best touch on it is the updates via Instagram stories where I can see my little boy running around being happy. I highly recommend the value of the service for the price compared to doggy day care.”

“Everything about this place is first class! Amazing delicious food, attention to detail Presentation of food, tables, staff is all excellent. Staff are amazing all smiley, happy and talk to you, which you don’t get very often! Special thanks to the lovely, good looking Sag on the service provided, we will definitely see you again!”

“I had many of my friends recommending this place, and when we finally tried it for my birthday - it exceeded all expectations! The service was amazing, very helpful and welcoming. The food was unreal, very unique menu with lots of things to try. We tried a fair few dishes as recommended and I’m still thinking about their pastas dishes. I would like to say a huge thank you to the staff for making my birthday so special.”

“Fantastic friendly venue. Alas Ska were stupendous too! I look forward to coming here again even though I've nothing booked as yet.....”

“Popped in for food and it was AMAZING!! I think new owners have taken it over about a year ago? I'm not too sure, but the menu is fabulous and everything that got brought out of the kitchen looked amazing. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back.”

“Went for something to eat. Great service and a good menu to choose from. When the food came it was top quality and value for money. We went in the dark so found the drive a bit tricky but that would not stop me from going again.”

“Brilliant place, a restaurant where the owner and all members of staff really care about the customer. Personal touch is bring met at the door by the manager. Food is really very good. Decor is lovely. Highly recommended.”

“Honestly where do I start the food is so nice always warm and fresh and the lovely staff give you free cheesy garlic bread if you spend to much which is so kind so I highly recommend you try here because the staff are really nice as well”

“Great veggie breakfast and delicious brew. Very friendly team and lovely atmosphere.”

“Wonderful place for breakfast especially if staying at the Crown Plaza, as we have several times. Not only is the food great, the ambience and decor is charming with its plants and each table having an old fashioned glass milk bottle with cute stainless steel cups for drinking water! It’s a popular place so today we arrived as they opened in order to get a seat. It soon filled up. This place does a lot of takeaway breakfasts also. We were served by the lovely and friendly Josh and ordered the amazing French toast along with the Turkish eggs with chorizo. Coffees were great as well. Service is polite and efficient and we’ll be back tomorrow!”

“Hardly surprising this micro-bar is now a well established entry in the Good Beer Guide. A varied lineup of cask ales on offer, didn’t get round to try any of the numerous craft ales.”

“Visited for the first time Sunday evening with friends to take part in the pub quiz. Great atmosphere, great beers and the quiz was loads of fun.”

“you’ll be hard pressed to find a more accommodating pub landlord in the city. the ambience is terrific as well”

“What an absolutely brilliant traditional pub. Saturday afternoon and the place was rammed full with drinkers, diners and pre football tipplers. The country used to be full of these gems but corporate greed has trashed so many. The staff were fantastic and individual. Go and spend a few hours in this treasure.”
