Weekend drinks in Manchester

“As ever with Hawksmoor, fabulous steak. This experience was really great to us thanks to Benedicts amazing service. Knowledgeable about anything on the menu and a pleasure to be served by. Always order the sticky toffee pudding. Trust me.”

“Well positioned shop, with ample space for the full Rapha range. Usually have good stock of most items and staff are very helpful and friendly. The cafe is also a gem, serving great coffee and a selection of cakes, sandwiches etc. Little pricey, but it is rapha after all! There is usually some cycling on the big screens, and a nice atmosphere. The window bar seats are a great place to people watch over King Street.”

“first time going to this branch and it did not disappoint. Manager was really helpful as other half couldn't remember what he usually orders, drinks really hit the spot as it was so warm out. Food was amazing highly recommended and will definitely be back! Nice atmosphere and great staff.”

“Loved the atmosphere very busy. Very tasty and fresh food. Good portion size and attentive staff and very helpful. Great menu and price. Fantastic service. Even better its bring your own ALCOHOL and free Corkage which helps keep the bill down making it a affordable evening. Will be back and recommend..........”

“Very reasonable price and fantastic location. Room was spotless and good amenities. Iron and ironing board provided on request. Free wifi and tv in each room. Also spotless. If I had to fault, the maid walked in in the morning at 8am, she did knock and walk in but I didn’t think I would need to put the “don’t clean” sign on the door as we were only staying one night. But overall a pleasant experience and would definitely stay again!”

“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.”

“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.”

“As always brilliant service from the staff..food was served quickly..it was cooked to perfection. Tried one of the burgers it was delicious..garlic bread was slightly hard but fries was excellent.. chicken was tender and flavorful. This is usually not too busy at lunch time so it is our one of the favourite places to go to .”

“Got 2 adjacent rooms with intersecting doors for one night, while we were at a function. I booked these over the telephone last minute and the staff member I spoke to was so helpful and lovely. We had a really lovely stay and I would definitely return ❤️”

“Nice place to have a meal good selection on menu”

“We have stayed at this PI regularly for about 15 years so that we can visit family. Even though team members have changed, it is still staffed by a great team of friendly and helpful staff and the rooms are spotlessly clean. Thank you all! However, over the last couple of years, a very clear and "uncomfortable" demarcation has evolved between this PI and the associated restaurant. The restaurant has extremely rigid rules for eating times etc. and enforces them in a forthright manner... it makes the whole hotel experience unpleasant. We prefer to eat at the great Café in Tesco, a short walk away. The staff are really lovely and the food is good - far less stressful.”

“Hotel was good for the price over Christmas period. Bed was comfy and went straight to sleep. Breakfast was nice in the morning, got a room with breakfast included, but not worth £12.50 if not booked. Would definitely return.”

“We had booked online but it wasn't busy (6.30pm) and the welcome was very warm. The service was friendly and quick. The food was delicious.”

“Great early dinner menu with lots of choice for meat eaters and vegetarians. Staff are so friendly and attentive. Food was gorgeous with great portion sizes.”

“I would recommend the comedy store any day of the week. Staff were pleasant . Place was clean and tidy and in a prime location near to other events in the heart of Manchester. Its quite a large venue which could seat around 200 people as an estimate. maybe they offer to hire out the venue? i dont know but its worth mentioning. Would be back very soon. House beer was great!! Enjoy it!!!!”

“Just returned from one night at this hotel. Me and my boyfriend only had 1 problem which was 1 dirty towel. Other than that you can complain for the price. Comfy bed and room appeared clean. Great location and friendly staff. The room was small but I expected that and the bathroom reminded me of a train toilet but bigger but its budget so again I expected that. Had tea and coffee facilities and a little wardrobe area and desk. We parked in the q Park piazza behind the hotel for £22 for 24 hrs with the 25% discount from hotel. I would stay here again :)”

“This was a fantastic pub to visit, having a glorious design persisting on the walls, ceiling and counter! The lights and the silver design at the counter are beautiful too, where a marvellous dark layout is utilized. I sat at a comfortable seat next to artwork frames, enjoying a refreshing drink after quick service and the area was clean!”

“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!”

“All the staff at Popworld are wonderful especially Alice! She is always so welcoming, kind and helpful! Would come again for sure ”

“Nothing but praise for this hotel. Very grateful for the room upgrade. Fantastic views of the city.”

“Absolutely loved my visit here. Was warmly welcomed by a lovely worker called Jake! Made me and my friends feel really comfortable and was able to give some great advice on their drinks offers, what’s going on, and even recommendations for places to go after! A really strong worker who truly went above and beyond. Will be returning and hope to meet Jake again!!”

“Can't recommend Fraser highly enough. Always get an excellent service. He's great with our dog who needed to be socialised properly after lockdown. Gave us some superb tips as to how to handle challenging behaviours, all of which worked a treat. Looking forward to a long working relationship!”

“I found myself back in Davyhulme, and had another breakfast and pot of tea. Once again, everything was perfect. Great food and wonderful staff”

“Lovely brunch with family, all ways a pleasure and very welcoming, support this local business, recommended xx”

“Lovely cafe, very welcoming and cosy! Food is always amazing especially the homemade meals and cakes. Been several times and will continue to visit.”

“Delicious coffee!! Sitting here right now, sipping the last few drops of my latte. Better priced than elsewhere, nice atmosphere, and again… delicious coffee! I’m feeling pleased with myself for having finally discovered LD24 ☺️”

“Best wine shop in the world! The staff are amazing. Really helpful, welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. The wine range is superb and there is something for every price range and taste.”

“First visit to the NEW Knutsford Majestic Wine. Spacious and easily viewed selection of liquid refreshment. Staff welcoming .Generous ,easy access car park. Cheers Majestic Knutsford”

“Having visited twice this week I can highly recommend. If you are looking for a restaurant in Poynton look no further.. Fabulous decor, inviting, incredible service and delicious food! I no longer need to drive for truffle chips and will certainly be my new go to for dining with family, friends and clients.”
