The 30 Best Expert chefs in Manchester

“I got a hazelnut latte meatball sub and a Philly cheesesteak all of them easy 10/10 I took one bite out of the Philly cheesesteak and immediately thanked my friend who told me about it Best sandwich I’ve had in Greater Manchester”

“Called in for coffee and sandwiches. Very nice and fresh. Good value. Another visit. Great food. Really friendly staff and very polite.”

“The food was gorgeous, service was great. Looking forward to trying more!”

“A perfect events room. Plenty of lovely italian food for everyone laid on at the buffet. Thank you Enzo and staff. From Ant & Sel Eric & Nancy 80th Birthday Party”

“Went there today with family and had an amazing meal. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Food was exceptional had Sunday lunch and the gravy was to die for best I’ve ever had. Although I live in the Isle of Man I would definitely return when back in Sale. Would definitely recommend.”

“We went there to celebrate our friend’s birthday - food is delicious - fish is outstanding, with the candles heating it to keep warm - grilled pork is a must try - soft shelled crabs with curry is recommended - the coconut jelly drink is exotic - staff are friendly; before she took the cake out, she had played ‘Happy birthday’ as the background music for us, which is very considerate - reservation is recommended, as it may be crowded on weekends”

“Outstanding as always! Fair prices, fantastic food and amazing friendly service. 3 of us went on Thursday evening for their special 5 course offer. Really amazing value, but more importantly we all commented on how every part of the food was spot on delicious and hot . 10/10 for this great restaurant”

“Terrific place. Would definitely go again. The food was fabulous with perhaps one of the best Sunday Roasts I have ever had. My appetiser was a bit underwhelming and I don't think it was appropriately described on the menu but the main more than made up for it. It's a bit on the pricier side vs a pub roast but the quality is there. Service was very good too. A solid 9/10 overall.”

“I had an excellent experience with this Chinese takeout restaurant. The food was freshly prepared, flavorful, and arrived hot and on time. Their menu offers a great variety of dishes, and the portions were generous. The staff was courteous and efficient, making the entire ordering process smooth and pleasant. Personally, my favorite is the young chow fried rice. For anyone that would want to check this place out I highly recommend this dish! 10/10 must try again!”

“Very friendly staff and great food . The service is good as is the atmosphere in this Bakery cum Café. I wholeheartedly recommend this place.”

“Had to try this after a recommendation and I wasn't disappointed. The lad on the front was cheerful and made me feel welcome. so I chose the mix of chicken and lamb shawarma in a fresh fluffy tasty samoon bread with salad and it was perfect. And only a fiver as well Then chose the halloumi tray with chips and salad including hummus, pickled cabbage and other healthy fresh veg tables . The halloumi is the best I have ever had no joke. Absolutely fabulous food and great value would highly recommend and will be back.”

“This is my new favourite Friday cheat day breakfast. Great service, great food, just don't check the calories”

“Great full English breakfast. Really close to stockport shopping centre so in a great location. Amazing service as well. Definitely pop by again”

“Crispy chicken breast with soup udon. Iced bubble milk tea. Help yourself with different seasoning. Salt and pepper, seaweed and cheese powder and quite a few others. Would be even better if the breadcrumbs or flour not too thick. Worth trying. Milk tea and a few other drinks come at half price with food order at lunchtime. Very close to metro station or you can park and shop at Tesco Extra with three-hour free parking. Less than five minutes walk from Tesco.”

“Visited last night. Probably one of my favourite pubs now. Lovely food, great friendly and attentive staff and very cosey atmosphere. Bit pricey though, but worth it to see all the fires lit!”

“This place is amazing, the staff are so friendly and very helpful. Got the wings which were so tasty and juicy and got the steak sizzler which wow it was so tasty, the steak pieces were soft and tender, the chips were so perfectly cooked. I honestly cannot wait to come back and try some more food on the menu.”

“Brilliant food cooked to perfection! Brilliant quick service and lovely staff- Especially Louise and Abi! Will definitely be back!”

“This is our local pub & restaurant and never disappoints. The food is always lovely and Rachel the landlady is such a great host and runs a tight ship, the young new staff are all very friendly and professional, today was no exception with a lovely young man serving us and making sure we were looked after. They are credit to Rachel's hard work. Thank you :)”

“We are regular customers with Cheers and always get home delivery, we have had one bad experience with the food. As regular customers, we know what we enjoy, and one time it just wasn’t tasteful, chips were frozen and the food standard was very poor. We considered never ordering again, but Micheal has absolutely rectified any doubts we ever had about ordering again. He personally took time to ensure if we were to order again, the food would be to high standards. I just want to say, they have absolutely smashed it out of the park this time. Everything was so perfect, the food was delivered personally, HOT and FRESH! Our usual order was even better than the usual standards, everything had a little extra and we are so so happy that the Bistro is back to the high standards we enjoy so much. We are already looking forward to next time! Thank you so much Micheal, Bistro team and the man who delivered the food (and made the chips)”

“We’ve used Xpress Pizza Sale for awhile now, and cannot fault their food. All orders are always correct and delivered within the time frame. Delivery guys are really friendly.”

“The dessert room is located on the second floor. First time trying Mango SAGO and wow what a treat. The Frozen ice was an interesting choice as well, very light and enjoyable. Would recommend this place if you in the area.”

“Without doubt one of the best chip shops around beautifully cooked chips lovely sausage and wow what a really tasty curry sauce highly recommend this one it's definitely on my map!!”

“We had a takeaway. 15 minute wait. Parking on street round corner. Cash only. Good food.”

“Taxi Drivers around Manchester have been telling me about this place for so long with rave reviews and I didn’t take their advice until this weekend and I’m on my 5th consecutive day ordering. The Kobedi’s (kebab) are absolutely unreal (Sahara Grill Rochdale restaurant level) so this is my go to order, however I’ve sampled the Chicken and Lamb kebabs too and they’re unreal. All the meat is quality and cooked to perfection in the clay ovens. When I say this is the best takeaway I’ve ever had (to the point of me deleting my JustEat and Domino’s app) you better believe it. Unreal.”

“I got a delivery so can’t rate the atmosphere but I can tell you that the food was absolutely delicious was also hot and ready to eat apart from the fried chicken but I didn’t mind. Delivery was quick but was a bit pricey as I paid £25 in total for curry mutton rice and peas and coleslaw and fried chicken but that’s uber eats I guess. But was delicious so THANK YOU”

“The most beautiful restaurant. Sat outside on a lovely sunny day. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. I very rarely change where I eat an Italian as not many places do it perfectly but piccolo was recommended by the friend I visited with and it did not disappoint. Arancini was a delicious starter and I had the carbonara which was delicious. My friend had the lasagna which was very rich in flavour and delicious. Will definitely go again”

“What is not to like! Great food, quick service, good prices...... all with a smiling Nila behind the face of the business! This is a frequent place for me and a number of my collegues to go for lunch and I cannot recommend it enough. I would suggest getting the mixed curries to take advantage of as much of the menu as possible.”

“Tried this place for the first time recently, it's difficult to find a traditional Chinese locally however this place hit the spot!”

“We moved away from Didsbury about 5 years ago, so it was so nice coming back to our favourite brunch place and finding it still as good as (if not better than) before! Vast food and drink choices, and served with a smile. Hard to beat!”

“Enjoyed an excellent Sunday feed here this afternoon and would absolutely recommend the lunch deal for a cheap but very tasty eat. Great quality food and drinks, authentic Thai, and served up quickly by lovely staff. Will be coming back here in the future!”
