Experiences in Manchester

“I recently visited Manchester Martial Arts & Gym Supply and was very impressed by the knowledgeable and friendly staff. They had a wide selection of high-quality equipment and helped me find the perfect gear. Highly recommend! I will definitely be visiting again!”

“Hey guys! I would first like to express my gratitude to this school for being so welcoming and it would be there when I needed it! The teachers are amazing and I loved the teaching method! Here we can interact with many people from many countries, in addition to very easy access to the Board of Directors and other employees of the School! I definitely recommend the school to anyone wanting to study in Manchester! See you guys and once again thank you so much for your support and experience :)”

“A relaxed yet elevated dining experience, the team here are definitely focused on delivering not only a fine dining tasting platter but also engaging the customer in the journey of the food and wine. It was such a relaxed experience even though you are literally in the kitchen and watching how they prepare and deliver your food. The food may seem small but the flavour certainly packs a punch and if you really want yo elevate your experience then get the wine pairing and enjoy the delicate and robust flavours that it brings to the dining.”

“Been to collect our baby IRN (waffles) today and she is beautiful. 2 lovely people with lots of knowledge, very friendly and helpful. We are over the moon with the bird and the experience of today. 13/7/25. Thank you both so much and keep up the good work your doing its very much appreciated.”

“I recently had my car repaired by Group 1 Accident Repair Centre and I couldn't be more satisfied with the entire experience. From start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism and care. They arranged to pick up my car for the repair, which was incredibly convenient. Throughout the process, I was kept informed with regular updates. Once the repairs were completed, they delivered the car back to my home. The whole experience was completely hassle-free. The team was friendly, professional, and clearly committed to providing top-quality service. Thank you, Group 1, for making what could have been a stressful situation so smooth and easy. Highly recommended!”

“I was unfortunate to suffer a puncture on a very busy M60 earlier today. My breakdown company subcontracted the rescue to this local company. Within 5 minutes Manchester Breakdown Services had made direct contact me and provided a timeline of what to expect. Nathan arrived exactly as promised in just 15 minutes! Nathan was reassuring, friendly and polite, but most of all had mine and his own safety at the forefront of his mind. He efficiently changed my tyre in no time at all and after some very useful advice, I was back on my way! Incredible service from this local company and a huge thanks to Nathan today!”

“A vibrant community of local artists working with pewter, clay, wood, metal, textiles, and more. Their studios are spread across two floors in a lovely bright historical building. There's a cafe on the ground floor, too! Whether you're looking for a gift, a new piece of jewellery, a plant pot, or simply a greeting card, you can find it here - and support local artists and crafts people!”

“Had a lovely meal here last weekend I'm a fussy eater usually so this place was definitely out of my normality but I was on holiday so said let's give it a go, Had the garlic bread as a starter and went for the Margherita as a main, was pleasantly surprised by how delicious both were! Would absolutely have a look if you're in the area , staff are lovely and very personable”

“The food was exceptional—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive without being overbearing, and they made us feel right at home. Prices were very reasonable considering the quality, and the whole experience felt like true value for money. This is definitely a place I’d recommend to anyone who enjoys authentic, well-prepared Italian food. I’ll absolutely be coming back!”

“It was my first teppanyaki experience and I absolutely loved it. The food and service was great. The chefs were really entertaining and it was fascinating to see the food being prepared. I will definitely go back.”

“Harrison was a lovely server, very welcoming and accommodating. We had the evening set menu and it was a great value for money! I had the empanada to start then the rump and the trés leche for dessert and it was all delicious! really recommend the dessert! will definitely be coming back! thanks team x”

“I love how quick I got seated and when I looked at the menu I was amazed by the Asian food on it. The naan is very tender and soft. The service is also great. And I love how it actually looks royal. The food and drinks are so amazing! I recommend giving them a go!”

“Loved the specials! Very friendly and perfect informal dining with a good vibe. Dalia was lovely and everyone very attentive.”

“What a place! The location, the decor, the welcome, the staff, the service and of course the food all out of this World. Warm welcome, knowledgeable sommelier who exudes positivity and tells you a fabulous story about the wine, I could listen to him all day. The food is served and explained and is of an exquisite nature. I often don’t even read the ingredients and just try it - and I’m never disappointed. You’d be surprised how small dishes can fill you so much. A fabulous place, and a credit to Simon Wood. We will be back again and again.”

“This is an absolute treat! Instead of being in France due to industrial action, we sought to bring France to us and so glad we did. The food was high quality and in comfortable surroundings. Steak tartare as good as I have ever had (minus the egg yolk, because this in Britain!). A touch on the pricey side, but in this particular case, you do get what you pay for. Very good”

“Wow what an amazing find after hearing about this place for it’s amazing chicken and chicken splits , such good value for the amount of food you get , we will definitely return to try some of the other amazing food that was on display”

“It was a fantastic time we had, and the staff was ever so helpful and pleasant! Really nice atmosphere too. The meals were gorgeous, we are sure to go back soon for more!”

“Manchester Road Chippy is an absolute gem! The food is always delicious and perfectly cooked, but what really makes the experience stand out are Lydia and Phoebe. They are fantastic at their jobs—friendly, efficient, and always with a smile that brightens your visit. Their dedication and great service truly deserve recognition, and honestly, they should both get a raise for the amazing work they do. If you're in the area, this chippy is a must-visit!”

“I have been here from the start. The taste is fabulous. I can vouch for it having eaten in so many so called Kerala restaurants. The only thing missing this time is the squid Masala. I am told that it's on the menu in their Whitefield Sindhoor restaurant. Tandoori chicken was not filled with colour like elsewhere. Definitely recommended.”

“Mr. Zeeshan provided exceptional service, ensuring a positive experience. The cuisine was outstanding, offering a diverse selection of choices at reasonable price points.”

“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!”

“We visited for the first time on Saturday 8th November 2025 and we were served by Simona. She couldn’t have been more attentive. The service provided was excellent and right up there with the food. I had the arancini and the carbonara with sides of tenderstem broccoli and rocket. My partner had the scarpetta and lasagne. We both really enjoyed the food, particularly the dishes I picked. Simona kindly made me aware that the carbonara was traditional and not cooked with cream, which is what I expected but I do know people who have eaten a version of “carbonara” with cream who would definitely appreciate this information for their knowledge and to be aware of what they were ordering. Despite our table being booked for 7pm on a Saturday and the restaurant being very busy, we did not wait long to be served or for our food to come out. It was all well presented and perfectly cooked. I’ve already recommended a number of people to visit since our meal and we will definitely return next time we’re in Manchester.”

“Some of the best ramen I've ever had. Came in here for a last minuet meal before a gig, incredible service and fast food. The pork ramen was smokey and rich with an incredible pull apart pork joint on top. The chicken ramen had a lighter broth to it but full of flavour and morish. Fried chicken was tender and crisp, felt homemade and cozy. The atmosphere was cool and stylish, felt authentic for a small ramen shop, simple but effective. Would absolutely eat here again!”

“Fantastic to shop here lovely and friendly just wish they would stock all the lines”

“So welcoming and the clothes always fit me perfectly. Beautiful natural patterns and designs. Menswear is smaller but again great designs. Offers for money off most of the time if you sign up with them. Always have time to sit and have a free cup of tea and a biscuit!”

“Had a impromptu lunch date at this cafe and it was wonderful! the atmosphere was relaxing and very welcoming. The staff are warm and helpful ,we had to a make dietary request and they accommodated it and it wasn't any bother. cafe is beautifully decorated and very comfortable, they have different types of chairs which was a life saver for my back! Absolutely loved the food , a little expensive I would say but definitely worth it , best BBQ chicken cheese toastie I've had and the salad that accompanied it was gorgeous. Just what was need on a hot day. I would definitely recommend this place !”

“Had a wonderful experience this morning. Ruby welcomed me with a smile and suggested an addition to my order which was phenomenal. Carlos brought my full order to my table and made sure I had everything I needed. Catherine bused the dishes from my table when I was finished and ensured I was satisfied with everything. I had a lovely conversation with all three of them after I was finished and left feeling very thankful this was the coffee shop I chose while I was in town for a day. Very personable pleasant experience”

“First time visit. Booked on the same day. Nice welcome, friendly atmosphere and a great beard trim. I got exactly what I wanted and the hot towel was fantastic.”

“I reguarly come to this barber's to get my 3-year-old son's haircut. This barber has the option of children sitting in a toy car that doubles as a barber's chair, which my son really loves to sit in. Brother Araaz always shows a great deal of patience with him, as he is very fidgety and has taken the time to build a great relationship with him. I am always very impressed with the mid fade haircut, as is my son and wife. Recently, brother Araaz also kindly agreed to shave my newly-born daughter's head, as per our religious custom. He did an excellent job and really went the extra mile in using a variety of tools, such a shock brand new trimmer and two types of razors. He took his time, gave her plenty of breaks and was always attractive to her needs. I would highly recommend this barber. The shop is very clean and welcoming and you won't be disappointed with the service you receive.”

“We’ve just had our son’s 9th birthday party here. It really is a brilliant package. All the kids had so much fun. The staff are accommodating and the pizza is nice too”
