Function room in Manchester

“Have just been to purchase a sofa with my mother, what a really good experience. We assume it was Gary who served us, really friendly and helpful and not at all pressured into buying. Lovely quirky pieces, and fair prices. Thanks for looking after us so well.”

“Honest people and very friendly. I ordered a white ottoman gloss bed and a 250cm wardrobe and it was all so reasonably priced and fixed by them. Shabir and Sajid are kind humans and very honest. They rest assured me that if there are any problems they are a call away. They even helped me try to fix a dining table which I had lost the screws to through moving even thought it was not purchased in their shop. I will be buying all my furniture from here and I highly recommend them if you want good quality, great service, and above all a good price.”

“Clive provided an outstanding service from start to finish, and most importantly it was all stress free! We were given a large choice of products to choose from and we were not disappointed on fit out day - products looked amazing in the catalogues and matched in real life. Clive and his team (fitter, electrician and plasterer) all did a great job onsite, very friendly and courteous. They always listened to what we wanted and made it happen. All very trustworthy and helpful. Many thanks for all the good suggestions that were provided to us. Clive was very helpful in co-ordinating the electrician to fit a new fuse board and change a few broken sockets around the house - all at very reasonable prices. He also introduced us to a good waste disposal company and plumber too. He is clearly a professional and well connected! We really like our new kitchen and can't wait to use it. We highly recommend Clive, TKO Kitchens! Thanks again, Chi & Tom”

“We booked a table online for 10/9/25 and mentioned we would be bringing our well behaved dog.. Absolutely wonderful dining experience. The service was fantastic. The food was absolutely delicious. The owner?/chef came and checked everything was ok and had a chat. We will definitely be back. Doggo was very welcomed too... much appreciated. Thank you team Swan.”

“Great social club! Worth every penny of membership fee, 2 snooker tables, one pool table, a nice Dartboard and lovely beer garden. Immaculate all round including the toilets. Great locals, staff, location and more importantly.... great beer! Never had an off pint and changes regularly! Enjoy!”

“I took my 8-year old boy for boxing lessons. The class is amazing, great atmosphere, great training and my son absolutely loves it.”

“A lovely little place that we visit every other Wednesday (unless Man Utd or City are on TV), where a gang of local musicians gather fortnightly to rehearse. The drinks are way cheaper than the pubs, and it's welcoming, comfortable, warm and friendly. If you're into snooker, there's a table upstairs too.”

“This was our second visit to Kerridge End and we had another comfortable stay in The Hayloft. Good facilities for a wheelchair user with a lovely wetroom and shower chair provided. Very well equipped cottage having everything we needed. A lovely hamper was left for us on arrival and a delicious plate of homemade scones and jam too. Plenty of places to visit in the area.”

“Amazing! We went last week and could not fault it. My only regret is not going sooner. The prawns and Carbonara were incredible - highly highly recommend! Very reasonably priced as well :)”

“Absolute hidden gem. Found this place by accident and will most definitely be returning. I was in a rush and hungry. Service was on point and I would say, they went above and beyond to help me choose from the menu and then, prepare the food within the time I had available. I ordered a halloumi wrap, and it was delish. Highly recommend.”

“Great space to sit down and do a bit of reading/writing. Cheap as chips - hot chocolate for just £1.30!! Came with complementary chocolate (not found in the picture because I scranned it). Cream and marshmallows cost no extra - a welcome change from larger chain cafés Staff are lovely - seems to be run by Wonder Woman with a smile, and her band of merry lasses. Delightful pink and green interior (avant garde) Cleanliness without fault. Overall a surprise to find today, nestled near what could historically be considered a "rough" part of Blackley, but you wouldn't think it with the lovely hospitality. I expect this business to go far. Keep up the cracking work ladies.”

“Had such a lovely meal. We were a family of 7. The waiter explained the meal thoroughly and no question was too much! Thank you so much and we will definitely be returning. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and all of your staff!”

“Went for a birthday dinner, the staff were polite and pleasant throughout and the owner was beyond lovely, treating all his customers and staff with tremendous respect. The food quality is outstanding and the portions are generous with very fair prices for what you receive. 10/10 would eat there again.”

“This chippy has been here since I was a Kid back in the 80's, and the family who have owned the chippy since I can remember are still producing the same awesome English and Chinese food around. This is my go to chippy because it's always a trip down memory lane, the recipies have never changed and the food still tastes the same as back in the day. So you know 30 years or more running the place they have mastered their entire menu, I would recommend to all.”

“My friend and I took our 6 year old daughters to the Funky Monkey Christmas party yesterday and what an absolute blast we had! There were fun games and prizes for the kids, plenty of choice from the menu for the kids to choose from and they even got to meet Santa and get a special gift! Our girls absolutely loved their time, and us mums and dads had so much fun too. We even won a prize as adults and can’t wait to have our beautiful Christmas cupcakes!! The staff are wonderful here, and you’re literally made to feel part of the Funky Monkey family from the moment you step in the door! Our food was delicious - we would particularly rate the latte and the banana and toffee muffin and I am looking forward to coming back to try even more from the menu. Thank you so so much to the team for hosting such a fun event last night, you could tell a lot of heart and hard work went into this and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. We really hope you’ll host this again next year and in the meantime we will definitely be back for more tea, coffee and treats! Merry Christmas to you all!”

“Very cool bar with awesome music. Sometimes allows dancing on the weekend, if the crowd is right. Pool table too but often in use by locals. Friendly crowd, nice staff, great DJs. Toilets upstairs.”

“The Royal is an hidden gem the food is outstanding all home cooked, and excellent value for money. The menu caters for all, the Sunday lunches are amazing all freshly prepared and if you don’t have room for your dessert you can take it home. The homemade pies a choice of Cheese or Meat are freshly made by Alison are a worth a try they are delicious. It is well worth a visit and the prices are extremely reasonable. The staff go above and beyond they are so friendly especially Alison & Nicola.”

“Fantastic pub,superb atmosphere and excellent bar staff...don't serve food..”

“If you can't find it here it's probably not made. Great knowledgeable staff with a great vibe as they are so damn funny. Heck of a lot crammed into a small space so be prepared to search for stuff. I forget it's there sometimes and go to the big chains but these local people will have the same type of stuff but likely better quality and cheaper.”

“We were served and looked after by Mahmud today who was also friendly & not pushy as a sales rep. We bought a beautiful kitchen side table and chairs. Really pleased. Keep up the great service. Thank you.”

“I’m really happy with my new sofa! The quality is excellent, very comfortable, and the design looks beautiful in my living room. The materials feel durable, and the stitching is perfect. Delivery was fast, and the customer service was very friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend this company if you’re looking for stylish and well-made furniture!”

“A beautiful showroom, bright, inviting, and full of inspiration. Chloe and Carole were absolutely lovely and so helpful. Brilliant options to choose from, and I especially love the colours!”

“Fully fitted bedroom which is amazing. Absolutely delighted with quality, the fitter and especially the customer service. Will is a credit to the company and Martin is exceptional from start to end. Highly recommend as I’ve had several companies telling me I can’t have what I want in the size/colour I want. If you’re looking for quality Mayfield Interiors is the company to go to. Thank you all very much.”

“We had a wonderful stay at Dakota Hotel Manchester and it truly felt like a pure luxury experience from start to finish. The decor throughout the hotel is absolutely stunning, elegant, modern, and beautifully finished, giving the whole place a calm and sophisticated atmosphere. The staff were exceptional, warm, welcoming, and genuinely pleasant, always happy to help and making us feel valued as guests. Our room was amazing, spacious, spotless, and tastefully decorated with high quality finishes that made it feel both stylish and incredibly comfortable. The food and drinks were outstanding. Everything we tried was full of flavour, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care and attention to detail. The bar area in particular was a lovely place to relax, with an impressive selection of cocktails and a refined ambience. The hotel’s location is another huge plus. It is only about a six minute walk from Manchester Piccadilly Station, which made getting in and out of the city completely effortless. Overall, Dakota Hotel Manchester delivers a true five star experience. Luxurious surroundings, exceptional service, fantastic food, and a perfect central location, we could not have asked for a better stay and would absolutely return.”

“I attended a 50th birthday in the Cuckoo space. Very intimate and well presented space. We caught the tram to Prestwich and it was only a five minute walk away. Recommended for low key parties”

“Great Italian in Urmston. We had the lunch special which was great value. We didnt have pasta but I noticed others who did, and had generous portions. Staff were lovely. Restaurant laid out really well. Will definitely return.”

“Very pleased with the sofa and the service we received from Tom at Pricesavers and the delivery company. Our sofa was transported to the Isle of Lewis and arrived well packaged and in good time. Everyone very helpful, conscientious and kept me in the loop”

“Been meaning to give this place a try. Went the other week with the family. Food was excellent. Service was amazing.”

“I enjoyed my breakfast here! We were served quickly, food was yummy, staff were friendly and efficient. Price was good too! Great little cafe / greasy spoon type place:)”

“Reopened with new landlord and landlady. Very good pub, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Will definitely be calling in on a regular basis. Updated review.... This pub has gone from strength to strength... Great beer, great prices... Regulate entertainment and food too....”
