Classic pub decor in Manchester

“Overwhelmingly positive experience. Got recommended a rare wine from Uruguay that was the best wine I’ve tried. The meat variety and quality is ridiculously good, the waiters keep coming to offer new cuts of meat with a span of minutes until you stop them, and trust me you will. I was there for 2 and a half hours and ate all I could, nobody rushed me and the service is 10/10. I would highly recommend this place either for a date, going out with friends or family. It’s great for any case. I’ll have to fast for a day after this, but worth it!”

“This is what a pub should be. Great Ale served at the table, great conversation where everyone joins in, no muzak, no telly, no slots, no lager louts And its now changed, there inverted mushrooms on the ceiling to dampen the non existing sound that reaches the ears of the idiot upstairs.”

“Tasty, appealing food. Good service and yummy mocktails. We tried a lot of dishes and I can say that this is definitely a higher end Indian, not drowned in sauces, these dishes were well balanced, full of flavour and spiced well. Sauces coat like a marinade should. I highly recommend the fish and prawn dishes. The sizzling main was impressive and tasted fabulous and fresh See photos”

“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?”

“Brilliant pub, good beer, excellent staff. They have live music and are always welcoming.”

“Went there today at 4pm. Ordered soup for my mum and I had prawn cocktail plus two roast dinners lamb it was absolutely delicious plus chocolate fudge cake and cheese cake will definitely be going again. Prices good for the quality of food.”

“We had a meal on 12/03/23 in miller & carter kings street. Our server was Emma and i must say she went above and beyond. My partner dropped it in that it was birthday and to my embarrassment but also delight she made the occasion that bit extra special. The food was also 10/10. Will definitely be back. Thanks again.”

“Was here a few months back, forgot to write a review. Booked an early lunch time table for family we were visiting. Food was really good, pub very clean, staff super friendly. Will be coming again in December as my family want to visit again.”

“Vibrant area with plenty of restaurants. Arndale centre towers adjacent to the corn exchange which does not have a dedicated car park. Parking can be a nightmare for first timers. The adjacent shopping malls offer paid parking at a premium so allow some time to navigate the maze of road works, one way streets and the short walk to your destination.”

“A fantastic pub decorated beautifully. There's a lovely conservatory to have your meal too. I had the carvery. There was about 5 different meat choices and huge Yorkshire puddings. Pigs in blankets are available at an extra charge. There's a great selection of vegetables. Lovely roast potatoes, boiled potatoes, mushy peas, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, mixed vegetables. 3 types of gravy. Vegetarian, meaty gravy and gravy with peppercorns. The usual sauces are available, apple, cranberry, mint. Our server was Marc who was just delightful. Me and my friend will definitely be coming back.”

“Went here for a family meal had a carvery 3 course meal and really enjoyed it absolutely beautiful and will be returning again .”

“What a laugh! Went on a works night out, wasn't disappointed”

“Me and my sister in law took our 84 years old mother for lunch today. Lovely kind,caring staff, we're very helpful. Mum enjoyed her scampi and chips as we did our mac and cheese. Very clean and nice garden area to enjoy. Thank you.”

“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”

“Great homely pub, superb atmosphere, very friendly bar staff and clientele. Definitely recommended.”

“Came as part of a hen party on a Friday night, the cabaret and music in between were both great. None of our party of 10 had been before but we would all go again. Drinks package was great. Two minor things were, with where we were located it was hard for us all to watch our drinks when other people came around and started using our tables (the two big wooden tables near the stage) one table would have been suitable for us all if they were separated. Also some of the party ordered food and it didn't arrive. Even so we all still had a great night.”

“Food was delicious and staff were welcoming. Pet friendly around the bar/restaurant area which was lovely as we were took our pup Daphne. Was too quick to start eating the food so no photo’s were taken!!”

“Great pub - genius idea - proper immaculate Victorian boozer (superb architecture) - as a student union bar. Tucked away amidst the increasingly impressive high rise MMU campus - it's a real oasis with decent ale and well priced grub (Inc selection of Pie Minister specials). Nice touch with a blue plaque inside commemorating Frank Side Bottom's last go. Well worth checking out.”

“Another great experience at The English Lounge… an 80th private party recently, where everyone had a great time. The staff, as always, very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. Particular thanks to Michael, Kieron and Dannie for looking after us all.”

“I ordered the chicken club, it was really good and the serving time was ok too. Lola, the waitress was super friendly and helpful, she gave us great recommendations on not only the food but other local places.”

“Who said you can't have fun and stay safe? Namco Bowling made it happen! We had a great time with family. We booked 2 lanes side by side and played against one another. The place felt safe, clean and in line with the gov. guidelines.”

“Reading the other recent reviews here, I can understand the general comments. We waited about 20 minutes for our drinks, but nothing else went wrong at all. The food we ate was first class, we all finished the lot! We were served by a man with glasses called Will. He literally didn't stop in the 2 hours we were there. He was so friendly, nothing was too much trouble. He clearly understands his job role. Unfortunately the other staff members didn't seem as switched on. In my opinion of course. So for Will's first class service, as well as the exceptional food, 5 stars. We just hope it isn't Will's day off when we return!”

“Haven't been for years, very nice decor, great atmosphere, food excellent value and piping hot. We had mainly toasted ciabatta and fries, which were all delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Deserts were good too. There were plenty of people eating, which is always a good sign”

“The food was great. I love Italian food and it’s not often you get authentic Italian cooking at such a reasonable price.”

“Recently renovated and is now actually worth going inside! They were making all the new menu food photos while I was in last. That food looked really good! Beer is good and wine selection is also good. Breakfast is also good!”

“Came in for my birthday and the service was amazing! Liam was a fantastic host and made us feel very welcome and had a good laugh. We had the vegan afternoon tea and it was beautiful. Once again thank you Liam you made it a fantastic experience!”
