The 30 Best Good restaurant in Manchester

“Lovely food and staff really enjoyed my full English veggie breakfast ..super impressed definitely visiting again..and the had my favourite brown sauce a must for me”

“Been wanting to go here since they opened, finally got a table. Heard and read great things about this place. I can see now why it's got such high praise and why it's worth waiting to get a booking. From the moment we entered the place was so inviting, the service was excellent. As for the food it was incredible, not one bad course, I opted for the extra course of pheasant, which I'm so glad I did it was one of my favourites. I've been to quite a few tasting menus and this was up there as one of my favourites. The place has a lovely homely family vibe, the chef/owner came out and chatted to us about one of the courses and we ended up chatting for a little, really nice guy. This is such an amazing addition to Urmston and deserves all the success. Get booked in and you won't be disappointed. We will be returning for the next convenient available slot. Been here a few times now and it never disappoints. The food is incredible we went on Sunday for there Sunday roast and it was amazing, every element was off the scale. I'd go for the three courses as the portions aren't huge but well balanced.”

“Amazing, helpful and lovely staff. Quick service, fresh food. Great and tasty vegan options. Can’t recommend enough. Definitely would go back again and again.”

“Went for the first time last night to celebrate our friend's golden wedding anniversary. The quality of food and the service were second to none. A great all-round experience, many thanks to the staff for making our night special. Definitely one of the best Italian restaurants in the area..”

“Thank you, Renata, for inviting us to this Christmas princess party to sing and play with all the kids. Thank you for trusting us and supporting our team in developing a playgroup. It was a really good experience. The place is like a dream come true. When you enter, you will think you have entered a castle. We never thought we would have this opportunity to work with such a wonderful playroom. Their food is amazing, and they put in full effort to make all the guests feel welcome and comfortable. We highly recommend working with them and visiting this lovely place.”

“My first time at Everyman and I was blown away by the fantastic customer service. As soon as we arrived we were wonderful greeted and shown a table before we waited for the screen to be open. A lovely guy with a beard and glasses came and sat to take our order - I couldn’t get over how incredibly friendly and polite he was. The service was worth every penny and the food was delicious.”

“I ate here last night with my two children and it was amazing. The food was delicious, fresh, came out quickly, and looked fantastic. The service was excellent, the staff were friendly and helpful, and it was lovely and clean. It was my 8-year-old's birthday and the staff made him feel so special. They brought out his cake with a sparkling candle and happy birthday music playing. He loved it!”

“Our wedding at the Bellavista was perfect!! I would personally like to thank Gemma the wedding planner who from the initial meet to final moments on the day has been brilliant. She was always there to answer any questions and always replied promptly. Gemma recommended the best suppliers to work with and organised everything perfectly. The wedding was 2 days ago and people are still talking about how good the food was, the canapés were a great hit and the Italian buffet was gorgeous. Everything ran smoothly throughout the day and we couldn’t have asked for more.”

“A lively rock bar selling great food and drinks. Great decor, neon signs and some good rock tunes playin too. We went for a rock n roll bingo night, you get tickets online ours were £12 each. Its unreserved seating so if your in a group get there early. Its a really great night, winning free shots and dancing yo the tunes.”

“Gorgeous and delicious food!! Friendly staff ,nice atmosphere!”

“Nice food, good portions and good price, but what is more special about this place is the staff. They were super friendly and helpful, always with a great attitude but letting you feel relaxed (I hope you guys feel genuinely happy to work there and your employer recognizes your effort!). Certainly I’ll pick this place for a next meal for the whole experience.”

“This place is too cute and I love the vibe. Also perfect for remote work. Wifi is very fast too. Food have a vegan and vege option”

“I was delightfully surprised with this stay. The building looks a little drab outside but inside it was a delight. From the warm and friendly staff, to the welcoming lobby, our room was clean and comfortable. Our bed was big and comfortable, the shower provided good hot water and we loved the twirling water shower head. It couldn't be positioned better, in good reach of restaurants, theatre, shopping and Manchester Arena. Excellent breakfast (just not a fan of the powdery scrambled egg!) All in all, enjoyable stay and we will be back.”

“I had a great stay at the Crowne Plaza Manchester. The rooms were modern, clean, and really comfortable — exactly what you want after a long day. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout, which made the whole experience even better. Breakfast was absolutely spot on with plenty of choice and everything cooked perfectly. A special mention goes to the reception team, who were extremely helpful and informative. Nothing was too much trouble, and they made check-in and check-out smooth and stress-free. Overall, a fantastic stay. I’d definitely return and highly recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Manchester.”
