The 30 Best Unique culinary experiences uk in Manchester

“This family-run restaurant is excellent. The staff are especially attentive, the food is delicious and the atmosphere is great. I think it is one of my favourite Indian restaurants of all time. I enjoyed the Indian Chai tea to end. Very tasty. Loved it.”

“Cocktails were 10/10!! It’s hard to make a delicious Pornstar Martini but they so good we went back for seconds!! Lovely atmosphere and our server V was very friendly and made the best cocktails! Cant wait to go back! So good to have a local fab cocktail bar!!”

“A relaxed yet elevated dining experience, the team here are definitely focused on delivering not only a fine dining tasting platter but also engaging the customer in the journey of the food and wine. It was such a relaxed experience even though you are literally in the kitchen and watching how they prepare and deliver your food. The food may seem small but the flavour certainly packs a punch and if you really want yo elevate your experience then get the wine pairing and enjoy the delicate and robust flavours that it brings to the dining.”

“Harrison was a lovely server, very welcoming and accommodating. We had the evening set menu and it was a great value for money! I had the empanada to start then the rump and the trés leche for dessert and it was all delicious! really recommend the dessert! will definitely be coming back! thanks team x”

“Must see experience for mixologists. A fun and fascinating presentation of complex cocktails using dry ice, Bunsen burners, beakers, and various other mechanisms. Make sure you have your camera ready when they prepare your fancy cocktail. Order one with a beaker icon. Beware: I suspect the alcohol content may suffer for the theatrics, but the results are still tasty. Priced very high for entertainment value.”

“Very highly recommended. This has to be the nicest Indian meal I’ve had in a very long time. Brilliant service from very helpful, friendly staff, it’s also reasonably priced. Piping hot food that is of a high standard. The portions aren’t too big, but enough to be able to enjoy everything we ordered. The garlic naan is so good, as are the curries. Very clean throughout, including the toilets, which I find incredibly important.”

“Pretty good for a small shop. They do have considerable amount of South indian, sri lankan groceries.”

“You simply HAVE to visit this Establishment. The atmosphere is excellent and when you arrive and enter the premises, you are quickly (and warmly) greeted with a friendly smile and a helpful Employee. As a Disabled Person, I found the layout, set-up and arrangement of the furniture easily navigable with ample room to move around. I have not encountered a more helpful Staff when visiting a Restaurant and my opinion of them is that they are of the highest calibre and quality. I wish to express my personal, sincere and heartfelt thanks to Waiter 'V' and the Manager. They (both) are extremely personable, professional, friendly, enthusiastic and welcoming. They gave me their time and were genuinely interested and could not have done more to help me. I cannot praise them enough. Their conduct, behaviour, attitude and persona(s) shall keep me coming back to [and frequenting] this Establishment often. The food is of the highest quality, but you'll just have to take my word on that and go and sample [it] for yourself! You won't regret it... I don't want to spoil the surprise! The table(s) are far enough apart so as to maintain a conversation without feeling overlooked or eavesdropped on. The Establishment is clean and the decor is tasteful. I enjoy visiting this Establishment and would rate it: exceptional. What makes this place stand out from the rest / it's competition is the: service. The superb Staff make this a super Establishment. Look no further if you are looking for a new 'local'. In this writer's humble view, you won't find one better!”

“Great food! Vegan chicken and donner are the best I've had. Kind staff and good pints too!”

“Clean, comfortable, and easily walkable to/from just about anything you would want to do in the city centre. Restaurant made my life easier due to the convenience. Decently priced, considering all this! I would especially like to recognize manager Sandra for being so warm and accommodating! This really makes someone feel welcome when they are far from home. :)”

“Food was amazing, Our server Keesha was very fast and polite. 5 stars from me, definitely coming back again.”

“Great service, very friendly. Lovely range of food for all dietary requirements, plus some really healthy options. I had the Shitake Mushroom Ramen which Mohammed made and it was DELICIOUS! Also had the Kombucha to drink which was really nice. I will go again next time I'm in the area.”

“The best Detroit style pizza I’ve had! Lots of halal options too!”

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

“What a fantastic experience. Dan the chef and the brilliant support team made for an enjoyable and educational few hours. Every dish was stunning and Dan taught us through every step, to help create beautiful, high end dishes. I’ll be taking all his top tips into my own cooking at home.”

“Really nice vegan restaurant. Service was good. Had to flag down waiter to get more drinks and food was a little slow in coming out but possibly that is because we were a larger party (8). The food did come out all tigether so happy with it. Portion sizes were decent for the price. They look small but are incredibly filling. I had the Mezze and Qurma (you do need to order rice as a side). It was very filling. The place is small but I think makes for an excellent atmosphere.”

“Tried a jerk chicken wrap here for the first time today and it was superb! So flavourful and decent quantity. Really lovely staff.”

“Had lovely meal this afternoon with my husband and daughter. The food was delicious and excellent service. Would recommend to friends and family.”

“What a fantastic little roastery. I picked up a flat white and a bag of beans from them at Bolton food festival and I honestly can't stop ordering their coffee since. They've got a great range of coffee in their online shop that have become a staple at home, and are great for a wide range of brewing methods. I can't wait to try their cafe next! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a local roastery in Manchester, especially love their atomic fable.”

“I buy my cigars from Hadfields. It's a fantastic place with a really traditional feel, just like stepping back in time to a golden age. It's one of a kind, and I always look forward to visiting!”

“Excellent service was in a trickery situations and Imran brother helped me a lot and made my umrah smooth may Allah reward him and his business for making my umrah easy defo recommend will go out they way to help you and make this easy for you”

“Amazing food. Came for the first time last night ordered the King Prawns (biggest and best I’ve had) and a mixed grill and wow the meat was cooked beautiful so soft and flavourful. I’m already thinking of when I can come back.”

“I bought chicken wings and chicken pad thai. It’s made fresh whilst you can watch. So make sure you are ready for the smell to go all over you. Lol. The portions are HUGE. Price is so unbelievably reasonable. Food is yummy! It’s Halal.”

“We love Pho-Thong! Delicious, authentic food, great service, and fantastic value for money. Good options for vegetarians and vegans, too. Great little neighbourhood restaurant”

“Lovely food, great atmosphere and it's doggy friendly which is perfect, the only thing we dint see was a car park, but we just parked up at Tesco and walked up like not even 5 minutes, so wasn't a big issue, definitely going their again when we come back to visit :)”

“Went here for my sister’s 30th for Sunday lunch with my family. The food was incredible and the gravy was so shiny and delicious and there was loads of it! A true northern restaurant. My grandpa also has dementia and we requested that the food was served quickly. They were very accommodating. Can’t wait to come back and try the small plates.”

“Beautiful food, really tasty and you can tell very fresh. Will definitely book again”

“Been here a few times ,absolutely love the food and staff are amazing , friendly and service quick . The cooked breakfast is lovely and filling . I recommend eating here without a doubt . TJ.”

“Highly recommend!! Food, service and atmosphere excellent!!! I called up before to see if we could book and lucky they had an hour free to offer us a table for 2, I also mentioned I am celiac and it was no issue at all. When we arrived it was fairly busy but that didn’t affect the service or friendly atmosphere. The waiter remembered I mentioned celiac/gf. We ordered the summer rolls and chicken wings (none gluten free) and they offered to make the chicken wings gluten free which meant I could try them too! I could have eaten 10! They were so tasty!! I had the traditional pho for my main, the broth was full of flavour and lots of coriander which I love!! My partner ordered drunken chicken noodles which I wanted to try but it wasn’t GF, they said they could make it GF next time, which is great news! It’s more often places offer to make food gluten free so this was a pleasant surprise. They definitely accommodate GF needs. Everything tasted so good!! You wouldn’t think it was gluten free, I would definitely recommend to anyone, celiac or not! I’ll definitely be going back again.”
