Reviews in Manchester

Sensational food, top service, good atmosphere, tasty choice of beers, what more could you want. Great meal out with a group of friends.

I had jerk chicken and mac and cheese. Both were yummy and the service very pleasant. Good cocktails too. I'll be back.

Chakalaka is one of the best restaurants I've been to in Manchester! The atmosphere, service, food, and drinks were all outstanding. Their January deals made our meal ridiculously good value as well! When you walk in the whole place smells amazing and I love the fact it's totally independent. I had never tried South African food before but it was absolutely delish!

Once again fantastic food ,service and friendly staff !!

The food, service and vibe was great. Will come again

Food was very nice and tasty. The restaurant was very busy and to be fair the staff had done their very best in delivering good services while being accommodating. I will come back.

Always a firm favourite and a lovely local restaurant.

I had a fab dinner at Gio last Sunday 8 January for celebrating my wife's birthday with my little daughter. Customer service and food were both great. I was so impressed with the special decoration on our desert dish, which was served with a candle, to our surprise. Thank you the Gio team.

Great food, great service and a great atmosphere, we will certainly be back

You get a lovely welcome at The Rising Sun. The place is really lovely and the food incredible. Make sure you book as it's a popular place.

Great place, warm friendly service with amazing food. Would definitely recommend.

Very nice restaurant, good food, good vibes nice drinks

Enjoyed a lovely meal with my 2 children and my parents. Portion sizes are generous - there were multiple boxes of leftovers taken home! Whilst there is no specific children’s menu, smaller servings of dishes are available. Toilet facilities are downstairs and could do with some more attention - the door to one of the cubicles did not shut properly, the hand dryer was not working and the paper towel ran out. Service was slow to take our order, but quite attentive thereafter; the chap on the bar in the corner is quite on the ball. It’s been over 10 years since I last visited Giorgio’s and it it certainly pricier than I remember, or maybe that city centre dining these days.

This was our first time visiting The Drop Bar Car cafe. We had been told by friends not to expect great service. We waited forty minutes for our drinks and food order to be taken, as did the table next to us. This was after the woman next to us had been inside twice to ask for them to take our order. There were only three staff waiting on and they ignored everyone outside and focused on the customers inside. The food was amazing, which is why it is so disappointing that the service let the experience down. I would encourage you to visit, as long as you are not in a rush and are very patient people.

Had a meal here on the 23rd December and although it was quite busy the food and service was excellent. Very friendly staff and Manager. Would definitely recommend and we will be returning.

Great food, excellent staff, superb atmosphere

My husband and I had the most amazing food here yesterday. I had the hench box with peppered steak and stewed chicken - was sooo good. Husband had chicken chop box, we also got mac & cheese (THE BEST EVER) and a side of chips. Even better that is was 50% i even enjoyed a free cocktail then bought another one because it was so delicious (and im not a fan of cocktails usually) . We will definitely return. Staff are so friendly and welcoming too!
