The 30 Best Group dining options in Manchester

“Had a lovely family meal here, and the staff were so friendly and accomodating. Management here is clearly exceptional, as the service was very quick and everyone was very polite and helpful. A special mention to Rob who went above and beyond for my family, making sure all the food and drinks were ok (I can confirm they were delicious). Will definitely return on my next trip to Manchester!”

“Very kind staff especially Matin, who was very accommodating and welcoming. The food was amazing, so fresh and so flavourful. I have recommended to all family and friends.”

“Had a great experience at Nando’s. Ordered the half chicken, coleslaw, and halloumi, and honestly everything was banging — perfectly cooked, fresh, and full of flavour. Special shoutout to Haris, who was absolutely top-tier. Super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. You can tell he actually cares about customer service, which makes a big difference. Food was spot on, service was excellent, and the vibe was great. Will definitely be coming back.”

“Me and my partner stayed over for a night. We was really pleased with the service. Charlotte was outstanding with her service. Very very happy customers to say the least. Charlotte deserves a pay rise. Also have to say we was assisted also by lovely woman called Jo and she was also just very polite and helpful. 2 lovely people thanks for the service. We will be back again for sure. Once again food was outstanding very tasty x”

“If I were to describe Manjaros in a nutshell, I'd say it was Nandos with a twist. There are a few different options from the traditional grilled chicken which are worth trying. The prices are steep, but the portions are very large and you need to have a very large appetite to finish your plate completely! You also get enough seating for large groups as well as proper table service with waiters and everything - something which really sets the experience apart. Look out for the excellent discounts that may pop up from time to time, making this place incredibly good value. If you enjoy this sort of cuisine, I suggest you give it a shot. It's well worth it. Oh, and it can get quite busy so to avoid disappointment make sure you call up and reserve a table before visiting.”

“fantastic place for a bit of breakfast or lunch .. lovely staff and fantastic cakes and pastries … keep up the good work 10/10”

“The wait is a little long to get served the food (approx 40 minutes) however, this is worth every second. Food is very flavoursome, hearty and big portions for what you pay. Everything is well made, seasoned and fresh. The baller’s combo was £25 at the time of this review and is almost big enough for 2 people.”

“Fantastic Team and Great Service! I always have a great experience at the Didsbury Domino’s! The staff are amazing—friendly, efficient, and they have a great sense of humor. It’s refreshing to see a team that not only works well together but also knows how to have a laugh while providing top-notch service. They handle everything professionally while keeping the atmosphere fun and welcoming. Highly recommend this store for both the great pizzas and the fantastic customer service!”

“I booked a dome for afternoon tea for partners birthday. Food was delicious. I had the vegan option which was really well thought out rather than just dupes of the classic. We were served by Angel who was very polite, professional and helpful. Angel went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed and extra as its been such a hot day. Angel made sure the children were kept hydrated. Thank you Angel”

“great parking, nice staff, and most importantly, decent scran. loads of salad to choose from if that's your thing, and a really tasty doner kebab. one single point lost for playing tiktoks out loud on the tv. i felt like i was on the bus with a mindless 2020s child, but aside from that, really good, well done guys!”

“I visited this place last week for breakfast before I drop my kid for a football session. The staff was very well behaved. The food was amazingly delicious! It was served hot & nice. Ambience was quite and peaceful in the morning. Highly recommended!”

“Wow!!! 1st time we've ordered from Francos and it was gorgeous. Finally an authentic Italian pizza in Prestwich/Whitefield. Amazing ingredients and produce. Will definitely order again. Thank you”

“We have booked our last four ski holidays with Get Me To The Alps, and every experience has been outstanding from start to finish. They take all the stress out of planning by handling every detail with professionalism and care. From choosing the perfect resort to arranging accommodation, transfers, and lift passes, they make the entire process so straightforward that booking a ski holiday becomes a pleasure rather than a chore. What really sets them apart is how helpful and responsive they are at every stage. No question is too small, and they’re always quick to provide advice or updates, which gives you complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find a company that combines excellent customer service with such efficiency, but they truly deliver on both. Knowing that everything is organised by one reliable company means we can simply relax and look forward to our trip. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Get Me To The Alps to anyone planning a ski holiday – they make the whole experience seamless and enjoyable every single time.”

“Highly recommended for dog walking and pet sitting. Just moved few months ago, and we´ve been so lucky to came across with Fraser. He is taking care of our two dogs daily for a walk and home sitting them some nights every month. Both of the dogs are rescued and it is not easy to get close to them or gain their confidence and every time they see Fraser they are happy and go to kiss him. He is got a natural affinity with dogs. He is organised and friendly and keeps communication regular which made our first days leaving them easier for us. One of the times I was away and he was pet sitting them they went stomach sick and he looked after them while keeping me updated with everything. So always know they are in safe hands with Fraser. We get peace of mind leaving our dogs with him as we know that he really cares about them.”

“So lucky to have this wonderful business on the doorstep. Fantastic service, great prices and their love of dogs shines through. The ladies clearly enjoy what they do and are very professional in all aspects. Ederson was completely at ease and thoroughly enjoyed the grooming. I would have no hesitation in recommending Martha, Betty & Co. and will certainly be using them on a regular basis.”

“Absolutely gorgeous fresh steaming hot pizzas! Bang on time , Would definitely recommend this place we usually go dominos but not anymore now we have tried this place value for money and the quality is just 10/10. 2 massive pizzas just over £15”

“Never fails to disappoint. All home cooked, fresh and good portion sizes. Always a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended.”

“I absolutely love this restaurant! I can’t find this kind of flavor anywhere else. My boyfriend and I come here all the time, and it never disappoints. The food is super DELICIOUS with truly AUTHENTIC Thai flavours. Prices are really affordable, and the staff are always so friendly. Highly recommend checking out HOT THAI—you’ll love it!”

“We have had takeaway and always enjoyed the meals, and they always arrive hot. We decided to go for lunch on a Saturday, we ordered the thali and sorry the other meal I forget the name of, it was all outstanding, very tasty....the service as always, was very friendly and welcoming...”

“First time attending L’AQUILA and it was an outstanding experience! Emma made our visit truly memorable, and the food was absolutely unbelievable. I would definitely recommend it. My daughter, who is 11, said it made her day – such a family-friendly place! I Would maybe change music to fit experience other than that minor thing it honestly was remarkble x”

“Found this place using maps and it said over 4*. Should have been a 5*. The food was really good and service too. They had more delivery drivers coming in than McDonald’s. That’s how good the food was. Will definitely go back when in Manchester”

“We have ordered food from Great Indian kitchen quite a number of times and have always been a happy customer. We love their food so much that we opted for their catering service for our daughter’s baptism event. Everyone loved the food and it was a pure delight. We would highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a good Indian tea specially their chicken Hyderabadi and Samosa which are almost like Delhi style.”

“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.”

“This place is made from love, the decor and family atmosphere shines through, we were late, no problem starters looked great a nice Causal rest to mains, you can tell this small informal bistro has passion”

“The kindest chef, was open late and still prepped fresh and delicious food. The perfect spot for a Japanese craving as the menu is stacked. Can’t recommend enough.”
