“Fantastic place if you want to spot aircrafts takeoff and land. If you want to experience the fastest passenger plane on earth, they offer many tours of concorde. I would recommend platinum tour if you have time and money”

“The home of FC United of Manchester, you feel like family from the minute you get there. Totally fan owned . Function rooms available. Great food great beer and even better fans! Making friends not millionaires.”

“A lovely park with lots of options for children to have fun. We had 6 children ranging from 9 months to 8 years and all found something to do. Parking is reasonable, as is the kiosk. They enjoyed feeding the ducks, the bike track, play ground and the sand pit. More benches on the sunshine would be useful.”

“Great place gor kids parties , not expensive and a big bouncy castle included”

“Fishing is absolutely brilliant here.”

“A lovely traditional park with lots to see and do. The park has good play areas for the little ones which includes a water fountain play area in the summer months. A lovely coffee shop in the centre of the park with an ice cream van present near the play areas for most of the warmer months. There are also bowling greens, a duck pond and aviary with various types of birds to look at. Worth a visit if you're in the area and an excellent way to kill a few hours for free.”

“This is a GEM! One of my happy places. The grounds are very well maintained and it's a delight to walk around.”

“Great size park with sheep all over it roaming free. Bonfire night is always good here and I believe fishing is good. You see plenty of rabbits and other animals. Would recommend for a short dog walk as it's laid out very well and is easy to follow. Plenty of bins aswell and benches”

“The building, i believe, is not open to the general pubic but luckily for me, i work for the company that maintains it, so I got to see inside and how grand it is pictures speak for themselves it's grade 2 listed and has links with Agatha christie and also prince albert is rumourd to have stayed the night here on a visit to Manchester to open a gallery”

“Platt Fields Park is one of my favorite spots in Manchester! It’s perfect for all ages, with a beautiful lake, open spaces for picnics, and a playground for kids. There are also sports facilities and plenty of peaceful walking paths. A great place to relax and enjoy nature without leaving the city!”

“Absolutely beautiful park. Very special place for me since the 1960s. Visited for the first time since the late 70s/early 80s since moving out of the area. Heartbreaking what's happened to the buildings and beautiful conservatory etc but so wonderful to see what the various volunteer groups are achieving there, above all giving the Park love and TLC. Thank you.”

“Went here Saturday at 12.30, it was a table for 4 and we were seen to our table by a friendly waitress, ordered our meals which took about half an hour, which I thought was good and when they arrived they were all piping hot. Couldn't find fault at all like some of the other reviews, will definitely be back. Lovely little pub. Thank you”

“Visited on Wednesday 1st October 2025, approx 7pm, not busy. This was our first time at the Cinnamon Tree, my partner and I were staying overnight nearby and flying the following morning. The food was very tasty, good and plentiful choices on the menu. Price was what you would expect to pay at a normal restaurant (not expensive). Staff were all very friendly. Tried Bangla beer for the first time and it was lovely. Thoroughly recommend.”

“First time eating a Neel Paneer and will definitely be returning. Delicious food and lovely staff. Large portion sizes meant we had some to take home to enjoy the next day!”

“Got a dryer from nw today great price and quality,they were very helpful and knowledgeable about the products and it was delivered within 20 minutes of purchase. Great lads would definitely recommend this company. Thanks lads”

“I can't comment on food as I've only ever bought drinks and ice cream tubs from here but the food does look delicious! This is the only place I think I've ever been to where the staff are young but excellent at their jobs! They're all so polite and professional. There was a young lad on the till on Sunday who was so confident at what he was doing, gave eye contact, excellent customer service and just brilliant all round to he point my own 15year old pointed out how good he was at his job. A credit to the business and his parents.”

“A quiet little place to chill and relax. Just over the canal from Canal Street. It's the home of the Tree of Life and the Beacon of Hope memorials dedicated to those who have lost to their lives to AIDS. It's also the home of the Alan Turing memorial. This is a lovely place to visit during the day but, as I've been told, it can be a little bit different at night as there is very little lighting.”

“Had a great experience at HomeSense thanks to Moiz. He was really helpful, approachable, and went the extra mile to give me a hand. Made everything much smoother and stress-free. Brilliant customer service, credit to the team!”

“This is one of the most well maintained parks I've visited in Manchester. Abundance of trees present a tranquil atmosphere. Lovely walks and views of the reservoir - beautiful”
