Musical interests in Manchester

“My hubs and our 3 children have all had lessons here, including guitar, piano, African drums and ukulele. Each and every one of them enjoyed coming to the shed. Their teachers have always been brilliant and adapted to meet their individual learning needs. One of my children has autism and Dawn went above and beyond to keep him engaged and moving forward with his learning when he was very rigid in what he wanted to do. Dawn and Dave are a credit to our community and I know they will only ever use the best teachers. How do I know this? They are parents themselves and their own children have undertaken lessons at The Shed!”

“I highly recommend Altrincham Music School! My son has been taught piano by Andrew for over 6 years now and he still enjoys it thoroughly and looks forward to it every week. He has progressed onto Grade 5 and hopes to do all the grades here.”

“I absolutely love my piano lessons with Lauren! They were made even better when I took part in the most recent Christmas showcase where I met other students and teachers. It was such a memorable experience being placed in an adult band and rehearsing together for our showcase! Adam, Lauren (both Laurens and Kat (to name a few teachers) did an AMAZING job organising the showcases and getting is all energised and fully prepared for the show! They really are a credit to Anthem Music School, thank you so much! Xx”

“Been a few time for treatments with Emma and have taken my daughter too. Highly recommend. And I will be back soon.”

“After living in Manchester for 6 months I figured I’d find out more about this city. My girlfriend and I did the free walking tour hosted by Josh. He was very passionate about this city and told many interesting stories and helped us discover some hidden gems.”

“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!”

“One of the most enjoyable bank holiday weekend's I've had for a while. What made it special was the support artist enjoyed their day; not just turned up. Jean, Heather, and the rest of the staff where on hand. Made up a nice table too . Keep on rocking; my day was complete x!”

“Me and my friend have now done 8 rooms here and not one has missed the mark! Each one has been super fun while also not being to challenging. Massive shout out to our game host for Vacancy and Captured! Only issue we've had is when we did 'Captured', the TV's audio didn't work and on some occasions it turned off entirely for a couple of seconds. Luckily at this point we had done so many rooms it wasn't too much of a problem, but it could've really ruined the experience for new players (especially with the clues, we had to keep continually checking the TV from the other room)! Despite that all of our experiences have been really positive and we can't wait to try out even more rooms here in the future :)”

“Najma was excellent..really polite and welcoming. Thanks for the great service. Room was convenient space wise. And also in appliances. Would like to stay on top floor next time though ..Location is bang on also. Overall great spot and pleasant experience and would return. Thanks !”

“I joined SEM on a whim towards the end of 2019 studying music production & composition with zero knowledge nor experience. I started 2021 feeling equipped and skilled enough to write and produce my first album :) This is a really special school that has been a game-changer for me. The facilities are quality and the staff are a bunch of passionate and talented souls who go that extra mile when it comes to nurturing/developing their students. I wasted no time in jumping on the business module course when i had the chance which has been massively helpful in preparing my campaign. It's always a treat to study around like-minded musicians, so it's very easy to fit in and make a home out of the place. I couldn't recommend it enough and i'll be back when i have some spare cash! A.”

“Excellent place to learn guitar my husband has been going January registered blind. Neil has been really patient with him and taught him a step at a time going over anything he doesn't understand and place his fingers correctly.It has brought him more confidence to do something he never thought he would be able to.Well worth the money you pay.”

“Hired here for my grandsons 21st,they were excellent, couldn't thank them enough.Staff were really friendly and very helpful and efficient. Thank you.”

“We have stayed here a few times over the last couple of years and it is always a great experience. Clean, modern rooms and a good bar/restaurant. Perfect location for events at the AO Arena or if arriving via train into Manchester Victoria. Car parking is £15.00 for 24 hours (a five minute walk from the hotel). Lastly, the staff have always been friendly and professional. All in all it’s a great hotel in a great location for visiting central Manchester.”

“Visited the Rebellion for the King Buffalo gig, Lowdrive were the open act. Absolute banging band, we had an excellent night. All the staff were polite friendly and helpful. Great venue and highly recommended. We will be back!!!”

“I am a current employee of tiny steps nursery and can say with confidence that this nursery is absolutely outstanding !! Management go above and beyond for there staff, children and even parents who come to the nursery. I started as an apprentice and my knowledge and confidence has grown very very quickly thanks to the support of my manager, I never thought I’d get as far as I have done when I started the job but I am thriving and I couldn’t of done that without a fantastic team.”

“Really good bar -tasty cocktails and seriously abides by social distancing rules while providing a brilliant experience for all the people coming to enjoy a drink! Would definitely recommend at the end of a night out xxx”

“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?”

“Great place, offers many opportunities and activity’s for young people aged 8 to 19. Great facilities are located here (Gym, sports hall, boxing gym and many more) Staff are fantastic always willing to speak to a young person.”

“Excellent staff, beer and prices. Visited this at the weekend when Manchester was baking and City was playing their first home game of the season. So was a little worried about what the service would be like. I needn't have worried. Fast friendly service all day. We stopped just for one, but when we got seats and a table in the sun and had our first pint of Jimmy's Cider, one quickly turn into half a dozen! Even though the place was hammered before kick-off time the service was wonderful. I had just had a very bad experience at the Crown and Kettle and boy oh boy they could do with visiting here and seeing what customer service is all about. Will be back again. Thanks all for making our day!”

“Absolutely amazing cocktail bar. Staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble, I even asked for a cocktail not on the list and they made it. I cannot recommend this bar enough. Plus really good music, and a fantastic live singer on the Sunday night. If you're in the area go to this bar.”

“It was a great experience with my colleagues for a birthday. We didn't eat, but we heard a lot about how delicious their food. We will try ASAP. Thanks everyone for serving on that night. We highly recommend their cocktails. We will be back soon.”

“Amazing is not enough to describe this restaurant. Wide range of south American dishes. Great service. Quality food. Unmatched service and hospitality. All chicken meals are halal. Great vibes.”

“NYE celebrations here, ticketed event included entrance, drink on arrival, canapes throughout the night and schnapps at the end. The atmosphere was electric, great energy from performers and entertainers. A very enjoyable night to end the year!”

“Really decent spot ideal for a gig at the Albert Hall next door. Huge range of ale on offer, the burgers were awesome and cannot compliment the staff enough who made us feel welcome and offered great table service despite being busy the whole time we were there. I put a specific request on the table booking and got exactly what we asked for. It was very much appreciated. Easy to imagine a place like this being a bit too cool, staff being a bit detached, but not at all. Also decent indie play list on the whole time we were there. Top top place!”

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

“Went to watch The Lion King. On the circle in row B. Really great show, it's a must watch. Leg room was tight. I'm 6ft 2 and I would definitely go for a front row seat next time. Easy to get too as the train station is 30 seconds away. Can't fault it.”

“I have stayed in numerous hotels in Manchester however this is has got to be the best one I have stayed at so far! I recently stayed here for my friends birthday, the Guest Relations Manager was super accommodating and helped me setup my room for my friends birthday. She even kindly left a birthday card and small cake for my friend, thank you Viktorija. Exceptional 5 star service from all staff right from checking in right up until checking out and leaving the hotel. This was definitely a 5 star experience for myself and the welcome received from all staff was amazing. We had a small issue where our heating in the room was not working however the hotel accommodated promptly with a portable heater. Spa was also so beautiful and the overall look of the hotel is so aesthetically pleasing! 100% recommend this hotel, I don’t think I will book anywhere else now, it’s going to be my go to 5 star hotel. Can’t wait to be back! Thank you to all staff at The Edwardian this hotel is beautiful!!!!”

“I do not leave reviews very often but I have to for this one. We came for a Christmas Eve meal in a beautiful setting. From the food all the way down to the service, they go above and beyond to make you have the best experience. Food is bursting with flavour and filling. Had some of the best service I’ve ever experienced here, staff are kind, friendly and fantastic with the children. I cannot fault anything with this restaurant at all. Thanks for a lovely evening. We will definitely be back soon!”

“Highly recommended. Superb food and very helpful and friendly staff. We were seated right away, and the food we got was freshly cooked and tasty as anything. Highly recommend the Chicken and Bacon pancakes!”
