The 30 Best Day out in Manchester

“I called on the Monday Morning at 8.30 and had an appointment by 12.30 same day. I have a huge fear of the dentist, I had an infection which they prescribed Antibiotics for and an appointment for today for extraction. The service i received from Rebecca was exceptional, she was gentle knowing my fear and explained everything, she has such caring and professional manor. All the staff in the practise were fantastic. I am now booked in for a long over due check up and to have some extra work scheduled. Thank you for being so understanding and supportive of my fear.”

“Lloyd was a great host and the escape room was top notch. Went for my sons 11th birthday and we played the scare floor one (great for Monsters Inc fans). Really well set up, some tricky puzzles and Lloyd shouts up when you are going in the wrong direction.. definitely recommend.”

“Can't recommend enough this baby sensory! Becky has been amazing in every aspect. My baby started when she was three months old . This week we had her 1 year old birthday party in the sensory area and it has been so great! Thank you for all the precious memories ❤️”

“We played Space Evaders and Ellen was our host. She explained the game well and only gave clues when we really needed them which was great. The game itself was really fun, we did it as a team of 4 and there was plenty for each of us to do. We've played many escape rooms before and this room offered a loads of puzzles and with varying difficulty, so something for everyone. Would recommend!”

“Our little girl loves going to Inside Out nursery and has bonded really well with the staff. The kids get a lot of outdoor play and we get nice photo updates of what she’s been up to! I feel confident leaving her knowing she’s well looked after and I can tell Julie, Sophie and the whole team genuinely care about the kids”

“Excellent staff with knowledge,brilliant prices and tanks are always spotless,highly recommended”

“The Vault was the perfect amount of difficulty for us (a group of adults on their first time at an escape room) and we had a great time. Highly recommend. Great clues, fun premise and helpful staff. Only issue for me was the music is too loud.”

“My boyfriend took me here for my birthday dinner and we had the most wonderful evening! Upon arrival we were greeted warmly by the hostess and seated immediately. For starters we had calamari, focaccia and olives - all were delicious! Our mains, the pizza and steak were equally yummy. The highlight of the evening for me was when the waiters brought out a cake and sang happy birthday. Thank you so much to all the staff- you were so friendly and professional, and you made my birthday very special. Grazie mille!”

“Free parking (When you show your cinema ticket to the staff ask for parking validation. They will give you a card. Before you exit the building after your movie ends, go to the parking machine. Type in your car reg and the code, this will validate your parking) Great Cinema. Recliner seats, which are very comfortable. The staff are always welcoming and nice.”

“A good place to have picnic or enjoy with friends. Feels so satisfying. Planning to visit in summer as well.”

“Had a bottomless brunch with manager Cameron and it was the best brunch we've been to. Some of the best food we've had as well, absolutely mouth watering. Whether it's for brunch or a meal out I'd highly recommend coming here. The staff and service was 10/10 and lovley atmosphere, will definitely come again”

“We had a really tasty lunch. Bao buns, gyoza. ramen, and a desert of fried banana and ice cream - a coffee. Really good. The service was fantastic. I went with an older person who ate slowly. The server was really patient and supportive, not a hint of pressure for us to hurry. The woman Sol? couldn't have been more helpful. Thank you!”

“I'm a tourist from Australia we found Zizzi 3 months ago and love it. The food is great , the app and perks are fun and we get value for our money. Well done. Thanks to Tanmay for his friendliness.:)”

“I visited The Oxnoble on a Sunday with a friend who had been before for their Sunday roast. She mentioned the concept had changed a bit, but regardless, the Sunday roast was absolutely delicious! Our waiter, Sean, was super friendly and made the experience even better (he recommended the cauliflower chees and OMG soo good). I would definitely recommend The Oxnoble to anyone visiting Manchester for the weekend!”

“I wish I can give more then 5 stars to this place, And that's all only for staff , amazing manager and the host we had all staff members were brilliant. Every gaming and fun place can have ups and downs with maintenance and games but it's they way how they handles it and how quickly they act on it We celebrated our twin boys birthday had lots of fun. Unfortunately I forgot the names of staff members but we were booked today afternoon for birthday party 12:00 pm And our host Hijabi girl she was awesome top notch customer service and hospitality. Best place to have kids and adults birthday party or you can just have get together or fun day out as adults or for kids”

“I really do not know what to even say!! I paid just shy of £120 for 4 kids and 2 adults and I swear, I saw less of my partner than I did the kids! Honestly, this was the most epic chaotic day we've had in ages!!! 11/10”

“The bowling alley is well maintained. Booking is recommended if you plan to go during weekends as it could get busy.”

“Just Completed the Powerboat level two course and i can highly recommend trafford water sports centre! Chris our instructor was friendly, knowledgeable and very good at teaching and explaining the course. There was a good balance of theory and practical that it made it a really enjoyable experience! I would happily recommend this course to everyone! You won't be disappointed! A++”

“Excellent service provided by Khasif and Mohamed Fayas from Old Trafford to Premier Inn Dale Street. 10/10 for location pickup 10/10 driving 10/10 friendliness Look foward to using the company again.”

“Son lost his wallet here with all his Christmas money in. We didn’t have much hope it would be found but I reported it lost to the lovely Shanese. I left my details and within minutes she called to say she found it! She even ran outside to pass it on to my son. Shanese went above and beyond. We are so grateful for her. Happy new year!!!”

“I feel is not big enough for what you pay but is not bad I give it 5 stars for all variety of fishes and playground for kids in side some activities but you have to pay extra for them the video I took is from the main aquarium inside witch is beautiful”

“Amazing the cubs and beavers loved him 5 *”

“Outstanding Nursery!! Come and Have a look around, small homely nursery where children always come first.”

“It was a pleasure to be here to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. My daughter thoroughly enjoys being here with her friends. Nice staff, Emily - Party host was great. Do visit here, highly recommended.”

“It’s very overwhelming at meat session where everyone is very helpful because when I went to there they always gave me the meat which they don’t have for other I mean generally I prefer to take lamb ribs and special thank you to Ali bhai.”

“I've had great service in this Argos shop. It's on the ground floor with automatic doors and a clear layout making it accessible.”

“Really enjoyed my stay here, the staff were outstanding and hospitable, the bar next to the lobby had a welcoming, cozy feel, wonderful menu and lovely rooms. I'm not sure about some of the complaints on the size, it seemed average to me, but it was very clean which is high on my importance list, as was the rest of the hotel. This hotel is away from the city bustle a bit, but a lot of trees around the property make it very relaxing and a pleasure to escape the traffic. My only feedback is the vegan sausage in the morning was freezer burned and a little bland, they can be tossed in oil & seasoning to add flavor, but fresh/defrosted is best. My veg pizza was wonderful, so was the veg burger. Great buffet in morning. Outstanding staff professionalism in housekeeping and lobby.”

“This place is 5*. The attention to detail and the quality of care is incredible. We have used the Ark for 2 children, one has since left and gone onto primary school but goes to space during school holidays from time to time. We find incredible value for money and the long opening hours really suit us. Would highly recommend to anyone.”
