Vibrant bars in Manchester

“Great service and wonderful staff. The food was amazing”

“Meticulously prepared food /knowledgeable staff and super friendly. I would recommend everything especially the festive Dhal and rice/ sprout bhajis/ Padron pakora korma/ The world famous okra fries-superb!! Also the classic Burl Puri and the mung bean chatpata/ chole saag and vada pav are all stunning genuine delights. As a regular of bundobust in Manchester I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

“I was born and bred in Thailand and this is the best Thai fusion food you’ll ever find in Manchester - It is a little pricey but it’s well worth it for a special night out. I cannot find any Thai restaurant in Manchester that offers Kao-Soi(Northern-style curry noodles) and Sai-Oua (lemongrass and herbs sausage) on the menu! I was very impressed with how they executed both. Went twice and will return. Cocktails are nice too.”

“I had an excellent experience with this Chinese takeout restaurant. The food was freshly prepared, flavorful, and arrived hot and on time. Their menu offers a great variety of dishes, and the portions were generous. The staff was courteous and efficient, making the entire ordering process smooth and pleasant. Personally, my favorite is the young chow fried rice. For anyone that would want to check this place out I highly recommend this dish! 10/10 must try again!”

“A gem, truly. Both bar and shop are tremendous, offering a range of brilliant beers and superb wines at range of prices. Well priced, interesting draft beer as well as being a pleasant place to pass time. What's not to like.”

“A great local cafe serving a variety of food by friendly welcoming owners. I would recommend the porridge, Persian or Turkish breakfast and omelette.”

“First visit Christmas Day Lunchtime, the staff were very welcoming and the place was busy, we were made to feel that we were regulars, which made this pub, one of in my opinion old school , Dartboard, plenty of conversations, a great choice of Beers at the bar, a lovely first visit to a good friendly boozer.”

“Love this place Beer is great..no food but I think it good without.. Outdoor seating Dog friendly (Even provide snacks)”

“A good place for a drink, staff were friendly and pleasant.”

“Great little pub, friendly staff and good selection of drinks”

“This pub is run by 2 honest good people , who don’t tolerate drugs on the premises , and bad behaviour , since owning the pub they have worked hard to make customers feel safe/welcome , and decent honest people all say the same”

“Truth to be told joy was an absolute 5* grade A top server! Her eyebrows on fleek, her customer care skills were by far the best I have ever seen! And the baby Guinness was to die for!”

“Love this pub inside and out. It’s got so much history and charm. The building used to be the Manchester & Salford Children’s Mission back in Victorian times, where they ran a kitchen for kids and the homeless. Now it’s this brilliant underground pub, and you can still see the old glazed brick walls when you head downstairs, which just adds to the atmosphere. I’d love to see more of that story told inside. There are a few old photos up, but no info with them... a bit of context would make it even better. Doesn’t put me off going though, it’s still one of my favourite spots in Manchester.”

“Welcoming pub, wonderful experience!”

“Visited last night. Probably one of my favourite pubs now. Lovely food, great friendly and attentive staff and very cosey atmosphere. Bit pricey though, but worth it to see all the fires lit!”

“Great crowd of people in here I travelled 8 miles from Bury to meet up with some friends here I certainly will be back, great pint of John Smiths”

“Went to see One Man 2 Governors last night. It was Fabulous, every part was superbly cast. Absolutely hilarious, literally laughed our socks off all the way through. What a great night night out. If I could change my plans this weekend I would go again. Thank you.”

“The best stay we have ever had! Amazing service, the friendliest and most personable staff, our first time in Manchester and we received so many recommendations, so many homely touches and genuinely it has been the best hotel with the best value for money we have ever stayed in”

“The most incredible place I have ever stayed. The lobby smells absolutely gorgeous, it’s so warm and friendly and the staff are so lovely. The suite was crazy. They had left a “Happy Birthday” card and neon sign above the bed as a lovely little touch. Absolutely worth every single penny. Thank you everyone! Amazing central location”

“A huge thank you to James and Jennifer who made my cousins 11th birthday extra special. From the beginning to the end staff were attentive, kind and warm. The ambiance and facilities are top notch, which is why we always come back. Best regards. Laish.”

“Great venue for stand up comedy, not so big that you lose the feeling of being part of the show. Good slope on the seating so the view from further back is still ok. Comfy seats, easy to get in and out, lots of parking nearby.”

“Visited for a birthday meal, staff were friendly, polite and attentive. Food was very tasty, well priced for manchester and a few things on the menu were different to usual so lots to explore. Overall had a great experience”

“Wonderful little club with lots going on from bingo to karaoke to artists every Sunday. Fresh beer, a warm welcome and friends to be made”

“Best place in the village hands down. Nice folk and no loons”

“This place is amazing, the staff are so friendly and very helpful. Got the wings which were so tasty and juicy and got the steak sizzler which wow it was so tasty, the steak pieces were soft and tender, the chips were so perfectly cooked. I honestly cannot wait to come back and try some more food on the menu.”

“I’m from Italy it’s was delicious food I have a have nice evening for me in uk first night frist diner to u guys thank you everyone friendly stuff I’m come back again the owner is very nice guy . Thank you situ see you again”

“Had a kids' meal, 4 oz burger and brownie with ice cream as desert, ABSOLUTELY LOVED BOTH. Size-wise was big enough even for me, so shared them with my boyfriend, who btw had fish and chips and was bananas about the sauce. Even mushy peas for the fish and chips had a nice twist to it. The meat on the burger tasted very nice, reminded of kebab, the ice cream in brownie was super tasty just on its own, and it all looked amazing. Totally worth it.”

“I've never left a review for anything before but I was so blown away by this experience, I felt I should leave one. The food was incredible, I had the king prawns, tenderstem broccoli and spinach but would recommend all dishes. The drinks were delicious and the service was flawless. Thank you to everyone at Las Ramblas for such a lovely experience. I would recommend you to anyone.”

“The Molly House in Manchester’s Gay Village is a cosy, characterful bar and eatery that blends Spanish and South American tapas with a relaxed pub atmosphere. The food is consistently praised for its flavour and presentation, with dishes like octopus and ox cheek standing out. The drinks menu is extensive, featuring a wide selection of craft beers, wines, and spirits. The interior combines rustic charm with vintage decor, creating a welcoming environment. Service is friendly and attentive, contributing to a pleasant dining experience. While the location is slightly tucked away on Richmond Street, it's well worth seeking out for quality food and a warm atmosphere.”

“Visited here for tea with my partner for his birthday, food was absolutely amazing! The restaurant had a really cosy vibe and was one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. I would definitely visit again!”
