Trendy dining in Manchester

“From Terry's design, which made full and imaginative use of the space in our small kitchen, to the installation by Paul on the agreed date in spite of freezing treacherous conditions, to the finishing touch by Wayne when I made a last minute addition to what I wanted, this was all a very positive experience. We are on the second floor with no lift, but none of that deterred this team from doing a fantastic job. I can't recommend them too much. There might be slightly cheaper kitchens out there, but these are excellent value and look great.”

“Really good beer here and a great venue. I recommend it if you are in the area. The drinks aren't cheap but I've never thought they were over priced.”

“Always enjoyed going in here. A brilliant collection of furniture. Donna who runs it has the magic touch for buying the spot on stock. But closes this week and she will be running Alexander Ellis in Beverly Noth Yorks. Where she will apply her magic touch again.”

“First visit and not the last ! Food was excellent Teriyaki Salmon for me with Yakisoba Noodles for a main course accompanied with a bento box with miso soup. "Father's day" treat. My daughter had Teriyaki beef with a bento box. I sampled the beef and it was amazingly tender. We started with a crispy platter to share & a couple of ichiban beers....no room for desserts ! Value for money £47. Clean and nice atmosphere, friendly staff.”

“A trip down memory lane to a beautiful spring day following a beautiful Bachata workshop hosted by factory international based in Manchester; led to an impromptu dinner at Suki Suki- famously known for their ramen! Lucky to be sat upstairs without a reservation, the interior of the restaurant carries a beautiful intimacy perfect for an escape from the bustle and hustle of the streets of deansgate. Opting to try other menu options, our table order included(from left to right): Yaki Udon with pork as the protein of choice 10/10- perfectly cooked with the right amount of spice and the pork was just perfect. Bang bang chicken served with the egg noodle was delightful, with the sweet and spicy blended and perfectly balanced. 10/10 Served with salt and pepper chips which you cannot go wrong with!also 10/10 The food was delicious, definitely a welcomed surprise as my sister and I were absolutely famished. The portions were large and perfect for sharing. Whether you are a solo diner, table for 2/4/6, it is modelled to accommodate any group size. Now, I would advise to book in advance if you want to be seated upstairs, the intimacy it offers is worth it. Will I be coming back to try more on the menu? Yes yes and yes! I appreciated how fast the service was considering it was a full room, the staff were very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed! I haven’t got the receipt this time, but the prices for the quality served 100% worth it and cost about £37.29- this includes a glass of white wine. Also if you are like us and end up being full with some food left on your plate, don’t be shy to ask the staff for takeout! Enjoy.”

“Our ”Tuesday club” went to birdandbeemcr today for the first time. They were 5 of us (usually 7) and we all opted for the bacon bun. Now this was not just any bacon bun - it was filled with crispy streaky bacon, with a cheesy, sumptuous little omelette on top - some of us had it on brioche & some on local sourdough. With pot of freshly brewed tea to go with it, it was delicious. One of us had a latte which was very professionally done too. They’ve only been open for a week but we’ll definitely to back to sample more great food. Sorry I didn’t take a pic but I’d finished it before I remembered!”

“I had such a lovely experience at Brezo Lounge! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, full of flavour, and with plenty of choice for everyone. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent throughout. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt well looked after without ever being intrusive. It’s the kind of place where you can relax and really enjoy your meal. I’ll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend Brezo Lounge to anyone looking for great food and great service in a relaxed setting!”

“A five star experience! I can not recommend this place highly enough. Perfectly cooked sea bream and mussels, followed by a white chocolate bread and butter pudding! Divine!”

“Arrived around 5:50 pm on a Saturday evening — busy enough with most tables filled, but still comfortable. We sat down and ordered a Pho and Summer Rolls. Barely five minutes later, our food was on the table. Having tried a lot of decent Vietnamese spots around Manchester since Viet Shack moved from the Arndale, I hadn’t visited this location until now. I have to say, it’s very impressive — the Pho was full of rich, aromatic flavours, and the Summer Rolls were fresh and beautifully presented. Service was friendly and efficient despite the busy atmosphere, making the whole experience even better. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Ancoats and craving authentic Vietnamese food.”

“Came here with my friends and had an amazing time! The food was absolutely incredible. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. Our server Rubel was awesome and gave us great recommendations that we all loved. The music was lit and really added to the fun, energetic vibe. From start to finish, the experience was enjoyable and delicious. Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to”

“Fuel never disappoints me in the 5 years I've been in and out, every time I'm back in Manchester I absolutely have to visit. some food items are absolutely delicious and other merely very good (the pakoras and chips are delightful) haha the staff is always lovely and the atmosphere never fails to feel inclusive and homey. great gigs too!!”

“One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. The restaurant is quirky and modern with great ambiance. Our 2 waitresses were fantastic; friendly, efficient and very knowledgeable. Then there was the food.... hard to put into words how good it was. Every course was a piece of art and the tastes blew me away. I really can't say enough about this place and look forward to returning”

“What a beautiful experience today Service omg was so so good , staff needs a raise because she was so so good. Drinks and food was beautiful. I loved it at canto tonite. Perfect date night with my bf.”

“Amazing tea and donuts, best tea place in Oldham. Wish there was a sitting place.”

“This place is my go to for an amazing breakfast! The food is incredible and the staff are so lovely! Highly recommend trying one of their Breakfast Big Eats! 10/10”

“Perfect little traditional greasy spoon! Reasonably priced, generous but not too big portions, staff very friendly and attentive, perfectly cooked eggs on the breakfast and one of the best hashbrowns I've had in a while! Definitely recommend for a quiet little breakfast and a cuppa!”

“The service was perfect from Jon, my lychee lemonade came really quickly and my friend’s smoothie too. Very polite and speedy service from Jon! And minimal interruption from our work (great place to study) Thank you Jon!”

“Well what can I say Amazing coffee loving staff right next to Oxford rd train station pop out have coffee would call back here again go head try it and let us know”

“I popped in the other day on my work break and had the loveliest service from two members of staff. I believe he was called Kieran and a girl with really long red hair (sorry I've forgotten her name!) I'm vegan and the girl was really patient at explaining the milk alternatives, as well as recommending me a low caffeine blend. The coffee was delicious and the service brightened my day. I've often avoided chain cafes because they often lack a bit of soul/character, but this was definitely an exception - I'm looking forward to visiting again.”

“They’ve started doing burger deliveries and the burgers are fantastic! Think 5 guys meets GBK. I got a double Eminem burger, it came slightly pink in the middle...just how I like it. I’ll be satisfying all my burger cravings from here for now on! Chips were also nice, draught beer vacation was lovely. I’ll give the halloumi fries a miss next time they weren’t great - my only complaint”

“Absolutely amazing! So close to the train station which obviously is so nice We stayed in room 6. The room was lovely and clean, excellent variety in tea tray (oat milk option as well!) and still very spacious, especially for a budget option! Couldn’t have been more happy! Manager who gave us the keys was so friendly and nice. All in all amazing stay! Lovely to have the shower in the room as well (came with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash which was all very good quality and smelt vvv nice) Couldn’t have asked for better! Even came with ear plugs but we had no issues with any noise :) thank you so much!”

“Stunning listed building, original plaster ceiling. Good selection of drinks, plenty of seating. Will definitely be returning.”

“The staff are all really friendly, helpful and will do anything to make sure that the visitors have the best time. Special thanks to Sharon,Mike, Jack, Cat and Elliot. We all love visiting Escape. Keep up the good work. Xxx”

“What an absolute gem of a place, huge place filled with all sorts of wonderful bits and pieces. Two floors of excellent quality good sturdy furniture. If you find a piece but its not quite the right colour have a chat with them and they see what they can do to lighten/darken it to suit you. Excellent find lovely place. even lovelier people that run the place (so sorry My memory is shocking when it comes to names) nothing it to much for them. Will be back when me and the other half get our house”

“I’ve been a customer for over 30 years, and throughout that time this company has always treated me with fairness, honesty, and genuine care. If anything is ever not quite right, they never avoid responsibility and always resolve it in the most fair and honest way. Truly exceptional service”

“I ordered a wall clock airplane Clock for my wife. It was on offer and we had seen similar at other vendors for quite a lot more so we were pleased with the price but worried about buying online. We needn't have worried olive and Sage communicated very well their intentions to deliver and delivered before I expected, communicating all the time. Great product, great service, and very happy.”

“What a great service from the team at Uber Interiors, from the picking up the initial phone call, calling to follow up as promised, to the execution and delivery of the order. The perfect experience and expertise. Highly recommend! Thanks Kate”

“Been to lots of gigs here. Great venue, good good, good beer. Love it!!”

“First time here.After hearing all the hype we decided to go for my birthday. Sunday lunch was amazing. Big plate full and extremely tasty”

“This is such a great spot for brunch or a drink, relaxed atmosphere downstairs and there's an upstairs and outside seating available. I have the veggie breakfast and I was skeptical at how good broccoli would be on an 11am meal but I didn't need to be! This breakfast delivered. The broccoli, the hummus the Potatoes each bit was tastier then the last!”
