Top restaurants in Manchester

“I remember walking past many times as they were fitting out the restaurant and I can’t believe it has taken me this long to visit. What a beautiful venue, really central within a short walk to lots of bars. The food is excellent with plenty to choose from. The staff are helpful and friendly and the drinks are great too. Plenty great options to choose from with amazing flavours and although only tapas the portions are generous. We struggled to finish all our food. A really lovely place to visit when in Manchester but make sure you book in advance as it does get rather busy.”

“The goats cheese and King prawn linguine was delicious, on the pre fix menu that is served until 5.30pm. Would recommended pre-booking and asking to sit inside as there was a slight draft in the front seating area. The staff were excellent all evening and couldn't have been better!”

“Great friendly pub. Shame it does not have a singers folk night.”

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

“Stayed for a few nights, service from the staff was outstanding, I have very rarely seen such a feindly and dedicated bunch of people. I had a minor heath issue with my wife while staying and the female on duty in the early hours of the morning was outstanding arrange taxi, making sure my wife was OK and supplying advice. This person went out of her way the next day to check up on my wife to ensure she was OK. The young staff working in the dinning area were so helpful and friendly. All staff went out of there way to help and make our stay enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel as a 5 star accommodation.”

“Great reasonably priced hotel, you always know what to expect with a Premier Inn and I think this stay was a little better. We only stayed for a night but felt taken care of, and made use of the features of the Premier Plus room, including the mini fridge and Nespresso coffee machine. After we arrived I went back down to ask if we could get any soya milk to make tea/coffee with, and the staff couldn’t be more helpful, and got us some from the kitchen to take up and use, and they definitely weren’t stingy about it, we got a litre! Mini fridge came in handy there. I’d highly recommend this hotel and the staff were just great. Also if you park in the MediaCityUK multi-storey car park adjacent to the premier inn, make sure you get your parking validated at reception to bring the price down to £11 for 24hrs”

“We was a party of 20 on a busy sunday afternoon The service was excellent food really good and well presented all served together and catered for the food came out hot and didnt have to wait long for meal. The staff so lovely and friendly.”

“Absolutely fantastic. My partner brought me here on the 4th February for my birthday and all I can say is WOW! Staff were brilliant, the food was fantastic and soo well presented. Will 1000% be visiting again soon!”

“What a great place! Boyfriend and I were looking for somewhere nice to eat before our train back, slightly worried about time and this place was perfect! Pizzas came within a couple minutes of ordering and we're absolutely delicious, wish they were cut but this wasn't a big issue. The vibe from the place was great slightly modern and rustic, staff were so lovely and welcoming it was a great experience. Especially loved the dips you could get on the side as my favourite topping is pesto - you rarely see the option anywhere! Definitely going again when I go to Manchester. To top it off, the sorbets were so refreshing and a perfect way to end the meal 10/10.”

“Flixton Domino's Pizza are consistenly good. Jade is a great manager who resolved our issues with another branch professionally and without issue, five stars to you. Also delivery was excellent,and overall credit to Domino's (well done guys)”

“Authentic and affordable Arab food, staff was friendly not much crowded too. Waiting time was little longer. Don’t expect great dine-in experience, Typical budget restaurant but good food.”

“Absolutely stunning place to grab some amazing breakfast, which is just delicious. From the hip vibes and colourful decor this place is awesome. The staff are so friendly and funny with great banter and the food and drinks wow. Really hits the spot a true gem, cant wait to visit again.”

“Greeted at the door. Took my son for a post football treat. Not that normal sort of place as is aimed at discerning diners/lunch seekers, we were lad and dad brunch seekers! The lady and gent that served us were really attentive and alert. Lovely with my 8 year old too. Divided things on menu to accommodate us and just made us feel like we could stay there all day it was that relaxed. Food was of a high standard and arrived still warm and fresh from the oven. Scotch bonnet chilli sauce was especially good which we got with our pizza. The sorbets are well above average too. All in all a great place, loved it! We were served by Elle and Isaac. Who enhanced an already good experience.”

“Love this restaurant just one tiny fault, if you go early it's cold so wear warm clothes”

“Lovely Italian place around Arndale. Food was good, particularly enjoyed the calamari antipasti. The waiters are friendly and happy to make suggestions when asked.”

“Very nice place to have a few drinks and some delicious pub food reasonably priced. The Botanist is beautifully decorated, the cocktails and selection of drinks is is impressive. I really enjoyed my halloumi hanging kebab and sweet chili fries. The staff is very approachable and attentive. Special thanks to our waiter Sam who kindly made sure that we were happy and well attended at all times. Will go back :)”

“If you want your fried chicken or donner fix as a veggie - this is the place to go. I've taken many meat eating friends and they love this too! Great portions, fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. Go once and you'll keep going back!”

“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”

“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!”

“Good outside sitting area. Delicious food. No great beer options (and most were off). Bit expensive.”

“Great location and friendly staff. Rooms were comfortable with windows which could be opened even if only a little bit. Desk available in the room. Hairdryer, iron and ironing board also available. Breakfast delicious with cooked options available to order.”

“Used a voucher for Tapas afternoon tea, think this one beats the English version. We were served by a friendly member of staff, it would have been nice to have items explained what they were. Sat on a nice comfy sofa in the window drinking a G&T watching the word go by .”

“As an asthmatic and someone who suffers from mild claustrophobia, it’s really important to be able to open the window of hotel rooms that I stay in. This is proving more and more difficult these days as so many hotels have no regard for guests basic need for fresh air. I was delighted that you can open the window in my room at this hotel. In Manchester for a conference, it is even more important to have fresh air when you’ve been inside all day. The rooms were bright, clean and spacious and the bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve slept in for a long time - high, supportive and the right balance of firm and soft. 24 hour room service and a good choice of items at breakfast. I’ll definitely be staying again.,”
