Refreshing drinks menu in Manchester

“Wonderful place for breakfast especially if staying at the Crown Plaza, as we have several times. Not only is the food great, the ambience and decor is charming with its plants and each table having an old fashioned glass milk bottle with cute stainless steel cups for drinking water! It’s a popular place so today we arrived as they opened in order to get a seat. It soon filled up. This place does a lot of takeaway breakfasts also. We were served by the lovely and friendly Josh and ordered the amazing French toast along with the Turkish eggs with chorizo. Coffees were great as well. Service is polite and efficient and we’ll be back tomorrow!”

“Lovely community pub night - what lovely vibes. Would highly recommend!”

“you’ll be hard pressed to find a more accommodating pub landlord in the city. the ambience is terrific as well”

“Decent beer. Cracking 3Swords despite being the first one off. The staff and customers are cool. Friendly environment.”

“Although I live some three miles away, and have my own local, I always enjoy coming in here for a change! Usually early doors on Mondays. Love it. Thanks all!”

“We asked Emma at the Builders if we could organise a small party in the Pub for friends. She was very accommodating and organised sandwich platters for the guests. Its a great location for meeting with friends. The quality of the sandwiches was excellent with many comments for others on these. The drink range is really good and very affordable compared to other places in Knutsford. As the weather was nice we also got to enjoy the outside garden and heated terrace area. Overall a great experience. Thanks to Emma and the staff.”

“This place is five ⭐ stars!! Afternoon event for a Holy Communion! Food, atmosphere and staff all amazing. A sense that they all enjoy their work!! Very clean and probably the best breakfast food I’ve had in years! Perfection!! Value for money also was a 5/5!!!! My son who has autism enjoyed his food and ate it so that’s a big compliment!!! We will be back!!!”

“Been to a few gatherings there such as a christening,wedding reception and a funeral. Brilliant place and all the staff are very friendly. Fully recommend this place for either a family gathering or if you’re out around tyldesley then nip in for a drink.”

“Wonderful coffee, comfortable and inviting surroundings and friendly staff. I could tell that many customers were regulars even though it was my first visit. Lots of board games, which I see from other reviews is a Thing here. I'll definitely be coming back.”

“Fantastic food and menu and a really lovely atmosphere, it’s always so welcoming and there is a real sense of community that Jonathan, Diane and the whole team foster. The service is brilliant, but beyond service there is a real effort to make it personal, with genuine warmth. Had an open flatbread today which was delicious, as is the specialty coffee.”

“What can i say. My new go to Italian restaurant. This place is fantastic. Excellent vaule food absolutely spot on and very nice. The place was packed and I mean packed yet service was fast friendly and spot on. The place has a very relaxed and warming vibe and will be heading back time after time.”

“I’ve been coming to The Hare and Hounds in Middleton week after week, and I can honestly say I’ve never had a bad experience here. From the classic Sunday roast to the rotating chef’s specials, the food is consistently 10/10 — it’s far beyond what you’d expect from pub food and easily rivals high-end restaurants. Every dish is beautifully presented, full of flavour, and perfectly cooked. Portion sizes are generous, and the prices are almost unbelievable given the quality you get. Drinks are also great value, with top brands served at very reasonable prices. The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and genuinely happy to help, no matter how busy it gets. They always do their best to accommodate everyone including dietary needs, and make you feel right at home. Whether you’re after a comforting roast, a special night out, or just a few drinks in a warm atmosphere, this place delivers every time. Highly recommended — easily one of the best pubs in the area!”

“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”

“I popped into Sykes for the first time today and had a lovely breakfast with butchers sausages and bacon, perfectly cooked eggs and all the trimmings. The coffee was delish! The welcome was genuine and service friendly, as always from Mancunians. A great place to grab a quality bite to eat, recommended.”

“Amazing food and an excellent ambiance! The customer service was outstanding — special thanks to Nikki, who perfectly understood my taste and recommended dishes that turned out to be spot on. The bartender was also at the top of his game. This place is an absolute must-visit!”

“Great quality food for a more upscale version of a British lunch. The scallops were outstanding so was the T bone steak in particular as cooked to perfection, but was all great. Lovely restaurant in Hale village and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.”

“Came in after being really let down by the market food hall across the road (I’m far too Northern to pay £16 for a pie.) As a lunch, from start to finish the most perfect lunch I’ve ever had. Seriously. I would travel out Of my way to come here again”

“I visited on Saturday evening as I was very hungry- the atmosphere was welcoming. The menu has variety of options and the girl who helped me to choose the menu recommended Keema Pav and I was also looking for fish she suggested Tava fish with garlic naan - awesome choice of her's which I liked. Staff was even checking to see if everything was good and the food is top-notch quality. Highly recommended place!”

“Called today, 11/6/14 on a whim, had time for a sit down lunch and thought "why not?" The welcome was superb, the service excellent and the food....... AMAZING, definitely a place to go back to, we had the buffet at £6.99 per person, complemaentary prawn crackers, fab choice of starters and main courses, was told the buffet menu changes after 2 days to keep customers coming back, definitely worth a visit if you`re in town, A takeaway box is £3 and there were plenty of people choosing this option too. Highly recommended, will see you soon”

“Don’t listen to the bad reviews! Really lovely food, been here so many times and it is always 10/10. Would recommend the pad Thai, Thai curry or the pad kra pao.”

“Perfect cafe and open on a Sunday morning. Winner all round”

They had a great rule of no phones or laptops which encourages real interactions. Definitely recommended :)”
