British gastropub in Manchester

“We really love this pub and pizza place. The beers are expertly kept and the staff are very friendly. We had a couple of pizzas when we were there last and they were exactly what we wanted and needed. Good atmosphere, great bee, tasty food. What more do you need?”

“I luv this place respect the staff and they respect me recommend jo as the 1 nicest managers all staff a fab berry clean pub atmosphere is amazing xxx”

“Scott has been walking my dog, Rupert, for nearly 1.5 years. He started doing puppy visits initially until he was vaccinated which he then joined the group walks. Throughout it all Scott has been amazing with him and Rupert gets so excited every time he gets picked up! The best touch on it is the updates via Instagram stories where I can see my little boy running around being happy. I highly recommend the value of the service for the price compared to doggy day care.”

“What a great place. One of my favourite pubs. Huge selection of ales, really well priced, brilliant atmosphere and hand made pizzas on a weekend. Can't beat it if you like beer.”

“Marble Brewery are one of the best brewers around in my view. Their new tap has hit the ground running. On my visit, there was Pint on cask, in addition to 9 varied keg offerings and a full fridge. Great use of the space given its purpose and a place I'll return to.”

“Went there with my 14-year-old son on the way to a football game as I’ve heard good things. The food was absolutely unbelievable and the service was amazing as well. Also I thought the cost was pretty good less than £30 for a three course meal in the portions were big as well. What more could you ask for? Regards Lee Gueller”

“I don't know why I travel all the way into Manchester City Centre when there are local places like this!! This place is a hidden gem! My friend ordered the potato kibbeh - these were small and delightful with a thin crusty texture on the outside and the mashed potato and lamb mince on the inside. I ordered the sucuk, thin slices of a spicy beef sausage - the flavours were strong and moreish. These were served with a basket of homemade white flatbread which were incredibly fresh and soft - they were pitta shaped but were fluffy and pillowy, not the hard dry white stuff you get in supermarkets! The waiter assured us that there was always plenty of bread available and sure enough we had another basket of lovely bread with our main courses. We both ordered the Chef's Mix which were skewers of charcoal grilled marinated meats - chicken, minced lamb and lamb shish pieces, served on a bed of onions and parsley and a chilli sauce.We also ordered a mudjadara rice between us as a side dish - a mix of lentils and rice cooked in spices and topped with crispy fried leeks. Yummy. We both agreed that although the flavour profile of the meats were quite similar to other nearby places (e.g. Turkish restaurants), the seasoning was better balanced here and most importantly, the cooking of the meat was excellent. Here, the chicken was succulent and tender, not dry and hard, and overall it looks like they know when to take it off the grill! At other places the charcoal grilling has left the meat hard and burnt at the edges with a bitterness - here everything was cooked just right. Although we were stuffed and were only considering an Arabic coffee, we both encouraged each other to go for a dessert. Unfortunately my friend's Halwa wasn't available so he joined me in a Muhallebia. Now normally I'm not one to bother with a dessert - I prefer crisps to chocolates and would rather have starter and main instead of main and dessert! And we were already incredibly stuffed! But this dessert blew my mind - a delicious milky pudding, not too dissimilar to a panna cotta but fluffier and less silky in texture. However, the flavours - wow the sweet vanilla with a tint of rose water, it was truly heaven and I haven't felt that way about any dessert for years! Garnished with chopped pistachios, this was for me the surprise star of the meal! Followed by strong and fragrant Arabic coffee, it was a fantastic end to a great dining experience. The service was friendly and attentive throughout, and I thought the decor, lighting and music was just perfect for the place. I highly recommend this place - it's small and relaxed and deserves attention. I hope it keeps these high standards up as I definitely want to come back and try the other offerings (and the Muhallebia again!).”

“Very nice meal and staff very accommodating. A really nice evening out!”

“A great place for a beer, no sports TV, no jukebox, no gaming machined. Best place in poynton to meet for a good beer and a chat.”

“Excellent pub with a genuine friendly welcome and atmosphere. A proper country pub with low beams, flagged floors, real fires and always a great choice of locally brewed real ales. Rightfully very popular. A real gem, well worth a visit.”

“I can't get enough of the chicken with bbq sauce and deep fried breaded mushrooms! Scrumptious, A +++++”

“Absolutely great place to go before this covid-19 they had live bands every weekend, great crowd good beer and cheap shots, Definitely recommend to anyone in the area and beer mat puzzles lol”

“Great food, friendly staff and owners. We arrived as we were walking in the local area and we were served great drinks, tasty food and sat right next to an open fire. It was a brilliant pub and we can’t wait to go back. We felt very welcome.”

“What a lovely little pub. A hidden jem. Nice people and the beer garden is lovely. Definately coming again .”

“Love this little gem, proper old fashioned pub w a snug & different seating areas. Pie & mash w gravy is a crowd pleaser, however they were out of peas on the day I visited. Great drinks selection: mulled wine, Robinson's ales (local brewery in Stockport).”

“Great traditional pub with a good range of drinks. Friendly staff & a warm atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit for a couple beers. I've not been in while the live music has been on but can imagine this would be a brilliant venue. I will be calling in again very soon.”

“A favourite of ours since moving to Manchester. Friendly staff, chilled vibe and great selection of beers in an authentic, vintage environment. It's a hidden gem, down some stairs in a basement and stands out from the usual garish, chain or flashy cocktail bars of Spinningfields.”

“Beautiful place to dine in or stay out on the terrace. Big selection of beers. Very nice food too.”

“Fantastic wood fired pizzas, absolutely delicious. Fast delivery and everything arrived fresh and hot. Cannot fault the taste and quality!”

“Tasty beautiful food, reasonably priced. Lovely warm, welcoming pub in a pretty little area of Dobcross. Would definitely recommend & will be going back soon.”

“Superb pub so full of character and atmosphere. The food is delicious and the staff are great. Not much more you could want.”

“Hyde's brewery limits one's choice, but a great pub nevertheless especially if you get a seat”

“We hosted our best friends baby shower here a few weeks ago and our experience was amazing! The staff here are really friendly and the manager was very helpful. We was able to use two rooms for a small fee which were beautifully decorated! Everyone had a great time. Will definitely book for more events in the future. Thankyou so much!”

“Lovely atmosphere, despite pouring rain outside it was very welcoming and cosy, don't forget to try the burger bar in the beer garden!”

“Very nice food. Veggies catered for - we had the cheese & onion pie and a vegan cottage pie. Lovely. Dog friendly too, which the White House up the road isn't”

“My first time I was invited by Narrow Margin Tameside band to write a review on their comeback gig ! A real gritty place which encourages our new bands to play & to get discovered ! Truly an an amazing place to be seen & spotted ! Fantastic for the music scene! In the heart of Manchester’s music scene !”

“Had a lovely meal with my partner at this restaurant, staff were really friendly and attentive and the food was amazing, I liked the small dishes which allowed you to try a few different things than just getting one big plate of just one thing. The pizza was delicious along with the fresh breads. Would highly recommend”

“Had a meal there today. Food was superb. Nicest meal all year. The pubs been done up, it looks very nice. But it does look like any other generic pub, it has lost a lot of character, although decor and food was nice.”

“Amazing food, full of flavour, lots of choice, fab staff who are so friendly and helpful. Great prices, generous portions. Always a pleasure to visit any of these take alway shops. Always busy .would recommend this place to anyone they do a whole range of food choices...also favouring from non spicy , mild , spicy and very hot. The chips are always fab clean oil used. Love and have been visiting these branches for many years now”
