“If you're looking for some delicious and authentic Italian street food in Manchester Arndale, then Wolf is the place to be. They offer a variety of options including wraps, salads, and pizzas. I've tried their pizza and it was excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful too. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!”

“Absolutely loved this hotel. It is a short walking distance from the train station, easy to access. The building looks amazing and the rooms are just fab! It is a proper hotel room but very well equipped even had a small kitchen installed giving a feeling of an RBnb so you can cook your own meals if you want. Nice and clean bathroom with some nice brands of shampoo and body wash. Also had iron and hair dryer. Oh, and the view was stunning, staff was superfriendly. Wifi was quick, easy to connect and even the staircase looks beautiful. Highly recommended accomodation if you visit Manchester.”

“Great experience overall! Very friendly service and great ambience. The food is also good. I'm not a huge fan of chain restaurants, but I have to admit that Gusto exceeded my expectations; food was actually quite decent. We went for lunch on a Saturday, 3 people. We sat on the outdoor area, which is very cute and spacious - ideal for those with baby prams like us!. We tried pasta carbonara, roasted vegetables salad, and the burger. We also had some starters. Everything was tasty and very well presented.”

“Came for a meal with family and had such a lovely time! Food was amazing and service was even better! Jordan was our server and she made us all feel so welcomed and made sure we had everything we needed! 10/10 recommend, we will be returning!”

“Live around the corner from this pizza takeaway. It's not been open long so tonight we had the pizza takeaway and a garlic bread. First off ,real home baked pizza dough, second was the box was bone dry,no dripping grease under the pizza which was absolutely beut. The choice of garlic bread and pizza toppings are amazing. All in all.10/10 from me. New owners should be proud.”

“For anyone looking for somewhere to eat that's a bit quieter than The Dockyard you'll like this and be pleasantly surprised at how it's not much more expensive. Every time I'm here the food looks and tastes great, the staff are friendly and I always feel welcome as its relaxed atmosphere is streets away from the boistrousness of nearby venues. Watch out for match day offers, happy hour and other decent offers.”

“Decided to try this place tonight. Totally un planned. The pizzas are amazing!! Highly recommend!!”

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

“I asked Ali if he could cater for a family gathering I was having at home. I could not have been happier with the wonderful food that was made for us. Every single item was delicious. The lamb shoulder was super tender, the chicken was delicious as was the gravy made from scratch! Loved the sides. Tiramisu and rice pudding were the perfect two desserts to keep everyone happy! Thank you Ali and the team - I wouldn’t think twice about going for this again.”

“What a nice discovery! We had a lovely day walking at worsley woods that finished in the best way eating an unexpected good pizza, so tasty vey good quality, highly recommend this place, Maya our waitress was very kind and helpful. We will definitely come back!”

Everything was perfectly cooked. Definitely will be visiting again! Restaurant was clean, bathroom was clean, cutlery was clean! Wheelchair friendly. The owner of the restaurant Giovanni was absolutely wonderful! Lovely host! Very welcoming! Ciao”

“We eat here regularly and there's a reason why. The food and service is fantastic. Proper Italian food, prepared by an experienced Chef. Little Gem of a place.”

“WOW! What a nice place with exquisite cuisine! First of all, the staff are so friendly and always accommodate my children by letting them make their own pizzas which is beyond lovely! And the pizza? Delicious EVERY time! Try the 4 salami - it is top notch. Meatballs are lush. Pasta also. Simply FAB.”

“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!”

“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 !”

“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!”

“This place is a hidden gem! I ordered starter and main from the specials board. Both were delicious, freshly cooked and generous portion sizes. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the prices very reasonable. Bring your own booze was a bonus! Will definitely go back.”

“We enjoyed another great meal at La Lupa on 9th Feb. I was a little concerned from the recent poor reviews, and while the service is slow the food was as good as ever. The bruschetta, pizzas and meatball spaghetti were amazing! Oh and the tiramisu was great! Although the service is slow I actually quite enjoyed not being rushed to order and so it made for a very relaxed evening.”

“I had to post as we had an amazing meal at Porada tonight. We had a party of 5 with one coeliac. Lots of choice on the menu and there was a variety of dishes ordered, everything was amazing especially the Gamberoni Taormina main.”

“The pesto was absolutely incredible!! fresh, flavourful, and perfectly balanced with an amazing atmosphere. What made the experience even better was the outstanding service from our waiter, Everton. He was friendly, welcoming and made our time here enjoyable. Amazing food and amazing service. Highly recommend!”

“We used their catering service for our wedding, it was very easy to organize, they accommodated to all of our requests, including our request for vegan and non vegan options, and, on the day, the delivery was right on time and effortless. All of our guests really enjoyed the food. Thank you very much for your service!”

“Great food. Owner is also a good guy.”

“We ordered a variety of different dishes, such as pizza fries and lasagne fries, and loved them all. The atmosphere in here is also great, with board games on the bar that we used whilst waiting for our food.”
