Dining options in Manchester

“Great bar in the heart of the city. Food chooses really great, had the grill of the day - creamy chickpeas with chicken. Mushroom filled scotch egg also great. Espresso martini good. Service great and prices fair. Would visit again.”

“Great service with a smile. Super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Delicious food and happy to come back again.”

“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 had an excellent experience at Vapiano’s thanks to the outstanding service from a gentleman named Michael. He was friendly, attentive, and went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. His warm attitude and professionalism made the visit truly enjoyable. Michael is a great example of exceptional customer service — he made my dining experience memorable.”

“Amazing food, service was great. Very nice relaxing vibes.”

“Good, honest Thai food. We've lived in the area for about five years and this is the best take away by far. I normally order the Tamarind Duck which is always great but I fancied a change. I tried the Larb Moo (minced pork salad) instead and it was exceptional. I always order the honey spare ribs and Thai fish cakes as sides/starters and they never disappoint. Tom Kha Gai is also great.”

“Very good service from the waiters. The food is pretty good. The fried chicken has a lovely coating and is very crispy with very juicy meat underneath. The coconut rice is fragrant with coconut but also it is not sticky. A very interesting texture I don't usually have. The sambal taste amazing. Lovely flavours of the anchovies. The chicken satay was the best I had so far compared to the supermarket stuff. Proper char and the peanut sauce taste great. I'm really happy that the sambal was not spicy not because I can't tolerate spice but it's because I can taste the flavours. Not a criticism but the price is very high. So if you got the money, go for it.”

“Have been eating here and getting takeaways for about 5 years. Always quick, always friendly helpful staff. Cooked freshly and some of the most delicious curries in Manchester or anywhere else. Consistently great. 5-Stars! *****”

“I recently visited Five Guys and had a great experience! The staff was friendly, and the service was quick and efficient. One employee in particular stood out — Mubaik, who works there. I have to say he was polite, hardworking, and clearly focused on doing his job well. It’s always nice to see members of staff being professional. Great store and keep up the great work!”

“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”

“What a fabulous place, especially if you're a "plane spotter"! Great food, super friendly staff. Highly recommended.”

“I had such an outstanding experience at Nando’s from the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, but what truly made it unforgettable was the exceptional service — especially from Cayo. Cayo was absolutely lovely from start to finish. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. It’s rare to come across someone who makes you feel so looked after and valued as a customer. Cayo’s positive energy and professionalism really stood out and made the visit so special. The food, as always, was amazing — perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and served piping hot. But it was the outstanding service that made this visit the best Nando’s experience I’ve ever had. You can tell when someone loves what they do, and Cayo brought that extra touch of care and joy that made all the difference. Huge thanks to the whole team, and especially to Cayo — you’re a star! I’ll definitely be back soon.”

“What can I say, this was my first time visiting Asha's and it definitely won't be my last! I booked for a group of six and we were treated exceptionally well by Ryan and his wonderful team. The food is out of this world, the drinks menu is perfectly paired and the staff were attentive, friendly and just knew our next move. Thank you for a wonderful evening, we'll definitely be back and recommending you to our friends. X”

“First time today, the food was amazing!!! Loved the option for a two/three course meal at around £23. The Sunday roast was one of the best I’ve ever had. Everything was seasoned!! And tasted so good and the portion size was perfect. The cookie desert was so tasty! Again the flavours were amazing. Defo coming back again.”

“Nice food but order by Chinese app”

“Love this place. Fresh tasty and great prices. Lovely lady who serves. Cash only though. Xx”

“What a fantastic venue with welcoming and friendly staff. As soon as you walk in it feels like your own local as it’s so welcoming which is rare in a city. Music on Saturday afternoon was really fantastic - I'll defo be back here next time I’m in Manchester”

“Overall experience was pleasant. Small issue with our room which was quickly resolved by staff. Ben on reception the night manager is brilliant really goes above and beyond! Also when checking in Mia was so busy and remained so calm, courteous & professional. Would highly recommend Will stay here again”

“Wonderful soundproofing for a city location. Didn't hear traffic, banging doors or anything during the night. Very comfy bed, powerful shower, clean and useful facilities. Also lovely friendly lady on reception. Late checkout brilliant too. The beefeater attached to it is great as well. We arrived very tired from long journey and took advantage of the special offer for dinner and breakfast. Food was delicious, portions good and Holly our waitress was brilliant.”

“It was lovely and for tourists interested in visiting Old Trafford, this is super close. The bus system is great so we could stay here even though our event was at the University of Manchester. The breakfast was beautiful and fun, and we didn't have to break our banks.”

“Stayed here when I went to a concert in Manchester. From the moment I arrived at the hotel, Levon made me feel welcome. He greeted me with a genuine smile and handled the check-in process quickly and professionally. Even though I had a few special requests, he was patient, attentive, and made sure everything was taken care of without any hassle. What really stood out to me was how friendly and approachable he was throughout my stay. Whether I needed directions, restaurant suggestions, or help with a small issue in my room, Levon was always available and eager to help. He has a calm, polite manner that instantly puts you at ease. It's clear that he takes pride in his work and cares about the guest experience. My stay felt smooth and stress-free. He’s a real asset to the hotel, and I’ll definitely return — partly because of the great service I received at the front desk.”

“Wow, wow, wow... What an amazing Gay Bar on Canal Street, Manchester. We all attended this bar for afternoon drinks. The weather was good enough to sit outside, the Halloween decorations were totally amazing. We shall always visit this place when in Manchester and we were lucky enough to meet the guy that did the Halloween decorations, he also does the Christmas ones too.”

“Lucy is a ray of sunshine. I came in wanting a simple exchange and left with the exchange and some lovely new pieces. No no pressure so spend a certain amount or make a purchase there and then. Just genuine. Love Lucy xxx”

“I was served by martina and she was extremely helpful and fixed my watch in no time”

“I eat here regularly, the kebabs are the best I’ve tased, chicken very fresh, 10/10 every time , staff are also so friendly. Thanks guys”

“Ordered Family table requested to be served once arrived to save time. Brother Ali provided exceptional service and looked after my family. Enjoyed the starters and main course. Highly recommended and yes pre-order and reserve table to avoid delays or waiting. Great people great service.”

“Had a lovely family meal here, and the staff were so friendly and accomodating. Management here is clearly exceptional, as the service was very quick and everyone was very polite and helpful. A special mention to Rob who went above and beyond for my family, making sure all the food and drinks were ok (I can confirm they were delicious). Will definitely return on my next trip to Manchester!”

“The burgers are on point, 7 of us got burger meal, wings and a wrap meal. We spent around £45. Everything was on point, the burger was succulent and the flavour was just perfect, the fries were perfectly seasoned and they just hit the spot. We drove 3 hours just to have these burgers. Definitely worth a try.”

“Had a great stay recently! Special mention to Charlie who particularly stood out for being very welcoming, approachable and helpful with any questions and requests I had. Would recommend”

“Just excellent. I stayed one night to work locally. My bag was lost on the flight up, the hotel staff were super friendly and helped me with a few bits. Great breakfast also. When things go wrong it comes down to how people help and assist you. I would definately stay again. Many Thanks”
