Rustic decor dining in Manchester

“New Manager Salvatoire was very welcoming. Great business lunch, steaks cooked to perfection. Service - genuine, attentive but not intrusive. Nice atmosphere with fires burning. Well done guys, we will be back.”

“Lorraine and the girls behind the bar are fab. Been drinking here for years, always worth the money. Great place to go as a couple too, never any trouble and great to see the bags of pork scratchings are back!!”

“Just back from an enjoyable lunch at the Andrew Arms.The steak and ale pie was delicious and the vegetables were cooked to perfection. Sticky toffee pudding with real custard, what a treat. Will be back soon.”

“Came here after a dog walk at teatime for some food with the dog. Had Thai food and it was absolutely lovely. Sat by the bar with the food as we had the dog and absolutely loved it. Good music in the background lovely atmosphere & Quality Thai authentic food and really nice friendly pub. Would 100% come back”

“Just visited for the second time today after a brilliant experience and food the first time. We walked in as advised as they were fully booked and managed to get a table. The food was delicious and they were great dealing with our fussy 4 year olds requests. We had the carbonara and a pizza and thoroughly enjoyed both. The decor is fab too and all the staff were fun and welcoming. We'll be back again!”

“The food is absolutely amazing, we will definitely be back!”

“Now the poutine here is amazing, I don’t usual go back to same place often but this place is an exception. The Keanu reeves poutine is very well balanced with a layer of chips in gravy with cheese curds followed by a bed of (Halal) BBQ USA beef brisket and long strands of crispy fried onions. Reasonably priced and a very warm welcome from the host. Everything a family run business should be.”

“Our waitress was superb, fun, friendly and helpful. It is good staff that help make for an enjoyable meal. The food was fine too!”

“Very helpful great choice of kitchens and doors.”

“I came across this coffee and was very surprised by the quality and the taste of the food. The owners are very nice and very welcoming, she made me the best cappuccino ever. They do a mix between Albanian and English food which was delicious. Very clean place, I recommend !”

“Fantastic food and service, very accommodating to my autistic daughter’s needs, and really made her feel like nothing was an issue when she had some difficulties with her menu choices. It’s all in how things are handled and the kind and friendly approach made all the difference. Lovely atmosphere and surroundings, tasty food, would definitely recommend.”

“The tolly is a great traditional pub, large selection of drinks. Lovely setting on the canal, option to sit outside in pub garden, dog friendly and all round great pub”

“Excellent pub, by chance we find it! Fantastic chief and staff we'll be returning”

“Great locals bar that is justly proud of its real ale championed by the manager. Well worth a visit. Full range of Hydes beers. Paulicarus on his first visit. A few too many TV's for me.”

“Lovely pub that has welcoming staff and great atmosphere! Cosy in the cold weather with a nice fire and a good selection of cask ales.”

“Excellent always get a qarm welcome. The staff are lovely, music fab and drinks cheap. What more do you want?”

“Me and my daughter called in for some lunch yesterday Fri 25th April. What can I say. Fabulous service and food was delicious and generous portions. I had black pudding bon bons to start and cheese and onion pie which came with chunky chips and a side pot of beans. My daughter had halloumi fries to start and a burger as her main. We were both very full after this . So didnt get chance to try the desserts . Food was hot and freshly made. Service was brilliant excellent staff . Will definitely be calling in again and would highly recommend.”

“First time visit at 1730 on a December weekday. Fairly quiet on arrival but warmly welcomed and sat down at a table. The restaurant is very modern and nicely decorated for Christmas. Menu is extensive and has a good selection for both meat and vegetarian options. All drinks are non-alcoholic which wasn't a problem though the content of the Sangria cocktail did use a soft drink with a sweetener. They serve normal Coke but am unsure of other non-sweetner drinks. The food was excellent, all freshly prepared. Some additional table presentation for the giant meatball was a nice touch. Good sized portions for all courses. Taste was excellent and the Turkish baklava with the extra table presentation was divine. Service was added to the bill and well deserved. All the staff were attentive and did their jobs well. The restaurant was busier as we left with families arriving. Overall a 5* and would definitely return.”

“Neat little pub with a great homely feel to it, staff were accommodating, the female manager was truely above and beyond, Connor was also pours a great pint! 10/10 would recommend”

“The food was absolutely incredible, definitely the best Tapas I've eaten outside of Spain! The service was on point, Jose made us feel welcome immediately and was very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be going back for more, I loved it!!”

“Great service and excellent food. It was our first time here and was really enjoyable. The meals were large and very tasty. Excellent value for money .”

“Absolutely amazing with authentic and imaginative recipes. You can also choose from the many different authentic sauces they have, each with a different spice level if your sensitive/don't enjoy spice you can choose to have no sauce or choose from the less spicy ones!”

“Decided to have a quiet midweek meal top celebrate my birthday and my daughter passing her driving test. Paul couldn't have delivered better service. he greeted us warmly on arrival and congratulated us both, which took me by surprise. He even had a birthday card and a congratulations card ready on our table. the service from Paul was attentive and friendly whilst the food was great too. we also took advantage of the tesco vouchers offer for a total bargain. thank you!”

“The Birches is a very welcoming pub, great atmosphere with an open fireplace to warm any weary traveller. A great selection of beers and larger, I had a glass of their Australian Shiraz, which was very nice; much nicer than what is usually served in pubs. Food is served using locally sourced produce. It is traditional, very well cooked, and served on nice warm plates. Recommended to all.”

“First class! I booked here for my 50th birthday and had a great time. The manager had kindly decorated the tables so that it felt like a party. Even though our tables had to be socially distant they still made or feel special. The food was good excellent. They had made platters of mixed starters for each table that were huge portions and delicious. Everyone was really happy with their main courses. The calzone is enormous! The octopus pasta superb! I can’t thank them enough for the service, welcome and food. I think I’ll be a regular in future!”

“Tasty breakfast and great coffee! Fresh, quick, perfect for a morning boost. Friendly service too .”

“Came today with my partner and 2 children amazing food and even did something they don’t have on the menu. Very friendly service highly recommend.”

“Had not intended to go out on the night of the NW200 racing but we ended up in the Bush Inn. One of if not 'then best nights ever. Great craic with some of the bikers and best Guiness too. Staff working like Trojans but still smiling. Can't recommend it enough”

“We booked the Daisyfield for a Confirmation party. They offered a cold buffet and a choice of hot pies. We choose a mixture of both and were very impressed with the high quality, portion sizes and value for money. The children had an absolute ball playing in garden to the rear. There were chickens and rabbits for them to see plus some play equipment. As it was Easter Sunday there was also a DJ and Easter egg hunt. All in all we were made to feel very welcome and great atmosphere. Good time was had by all. Thank you.”
