Habíamos oído un montón de cosas increíbles sobre Aumbrey así que cuando esto emergió detrás taza de té no pudimos resistir. El menú fijo era delicioso y la presentación era precioso. Es más caro que algunos de los restaurantes en los alrededores pero por la calidad y el sabor que no nos importó en absoluto. El personal era amable y atento, y el interior era precioso.Esperamos que se pegan en el centro de la ciudad!

Reservamos un grupo de cuatro a ir para la cena de Navidad y tenía grandes expectativas después de visitar su anterior restaurante Aumbry en Prestwich hasta parecía cierran de golpe. El restaurante es un área presagiar fuera de un café situado en una calle secundaria de la parte norte. Llegamos y el restaurante estaba lleno. nos sentamos y nos condujeron rápidamente la camarera era menos que acogedor. Obviamente no quería estar allí como su rostro no sonreir una vez. Nos dieron los menús para mirar pero no les dieron el menú vegetariano y tuvimos que pedir para esto. Después pedimos y la mesa optó por los vinos se venden conjuntamente a £60 pp. Nos dijeron que no había vino servido con los dos primeros cursos y no había oferta de otras bebidas de vernos a través de este período. Así que el sábado comida festiva comenzó muy seco. Una vez que haya desarrollado a través de la comida había confusión sobre quién era tener lo que cuando la comida y los vinos salió, las copas de vino estaban calientes directamente desde el lavavajillas, el restaurante era Doughty cada vez que la puerta estaba abierta y cerrada, el plato principal estaba salado, los langostinos hecha y para rematar, uno de los camareros tenía un problema olor corporal! No es en absoluto lo que yo llamo una buena cena y espectáculo en general como muy pobres. La ventaja que tiene este lugar es el sumiller de vino que es una eficiente encantadora señora que sería más adecuado en un establecimiento más profesional. En general pagamos casi £500 por 4 personas y con la sensación de que me. No vayas aquí, hay mucho mejor restaurantes en Manchester.

The atmosphere of 4244 was relaxed and the young man front of house was very pleasent and informative. We did have to wait 10-15 minutes to be served wine and one of the waitresses didn't seem to know what she was serving us which did confuse things a little but apart from that the service was friendly and good. The Poached Scottish Langoustine Monkfish, curly kale & pastrami was absolutely amazing and most of the other food on the night was excellent. The goose was a little tough and the desserts wasn't to our liking but that was purely because we don't like Christmas pudding. We were offered an alternative and took it but it fell a bit short. I definitely want to try The Aumbry once it re-opens. I was a little surprised at the price of the wines which seemed very steep but I suppose this is due to the cost of the pop up. The clos des lys pinot noir was delicious but at £42 a bottle I would expect it to be. Overall a nice experience.

I was really delighted with the evening I spent celebrating my sons birthday @ 4244. We, a group of 4, were all really excited about the menu & 3 of us decided on the wine taster to go with the superb food. One of our party requested "gluten free" which was provided without any quibble. without a doubt the most delicious, exciting food I've ever eaten!! the service was relaxed and informative, unhurried and friendly, We appreciated the information on the wine, and actually learnt quite a lot. It was an absolute triumph, THANK YOU we will be looking forward to a return visit in the spring

This was an interesting meal.<br />It wasn&#039;t outstanding, but it was very good.<br />The two great courses were an amazing, tiny, black pudding scotch quail&#039;s egg. and a delicious celeriac and chestnut soup.<br />We also had hare, and venison, but neither of these were as exciting as they sound.<br />Sherry trifle to finish didn&#039;t have much of a sherry flavour, but we loved it anyway.<br />I think the vegies had a better meal than the meat eaters.<br />Wines were well chosen and both fantastic. Sorry, I don&#039;t remember the names, the white was Croatian and the Red Bulgarian. Even though they were expensive I&#039;d buy them again.<br />The location at the back of Teacup is temporary, and it certainly feels more hipster tea shop than fine dining location. It left me wanting to try the real thing when they reopen.<br />Booking was a bit of a pain. I consider food to be a personal experience, especially when it&#039;s expensive, but you can&#039;t call the restaurant.

Some interesting dishes on the taster menu but several rather similar in texture and taste, particularly the hare and the venison, although these were both delicious. Dripping and breads very good, as was the celeriac and chestnut soup. Menu needs more contrast in flavour and texture, with fewer creamy dishes. The sherry trifle was very poor with no discernable sherry and bland shaving cream texture type topping. The wine list is also rather overpriced.

What a great place. Relaxed and unpretentious. Friendly, knowledgable and attentive staff. And then the food...phenomenal. Tasting menu is exactly that...tasty morcel after tasty morcel arrives at a perfect pace. Each one a delight. A heavy nod to the chefs Bury/Lancashire roots which was right up my street! Black peas so close to bonfire night - yes please! Wines are all natural and start around the £30 mark. However they offer beer and a few spirits. All in all, a great night out that I could t fault.

My husband and I enjoyed our meal, but found we weren't as full as we were after the Tuesday night tasting menu offer at aumbry. There weren't as many little extra touches - I was very cold through the meal, which didn't help the ambience. I was expecting a bit more for the full price menu at 4244 than the £30 offer at aumbry, but we left slightly unsatisfied. However, the service was absolutely, incredibly lovely. Sincere kindness & care. They brought 2 beautiful chocolates at the very end. Some of the best chocolate I've ever had. The vegetarian options are far more interesting than any other fine dining restaurant. I would go again, for a special occasion. We are big fans of aumbry, but the pop - up didn't go quite as well.

Very welcoming, relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Fixed menu (meat or vegetarian). Meat menu was game biased (pigeon, hare partridge) but all was well cooked. Other courses good, particularly liked smoked mackerel and celeriac and the rataffia pudding. Wine list was limited (it is a &#039;pop up&#039;)and predominantly croation.

I can't believe I live minutes away from this lovely restaurant and didn't know it existed until recently. We went in a family group of five for belated birthday meal, it was just perfect. We had the 6 course menu. The restaurant itself is so simple, fresh and pretty, it's hard to believe that you could be literally steps from the busy main road. The service was lovely, exactly the right balance of professionalism and informality. All the courses explained and plenty of time between courses to chat and digest. The food itself was amazing, lots of wonderful, tasty and beautifully presented, with loads of little extras between courses. It was one of those meals that you keep suddenly remembering different little bits of and smiling!

We had a beautiful meal at the Aumbry and thoroughly enjoyed their Great Brush Menu experience. The service was friendly and well informed and every course delivered something new. The fish on the fish and chip dish was excellent and the dessert the best I have eaten in as long as I can remember. Our only slight niggle was the speed of service which we felt was slightly slow and did leave quite a long time between each of the courses.

You have a choice of 6 or 9 course tasting menu but any dislikes or dietary requirements are discussed when the table is confirmed by the restaurant. Service is great, nothing was too much trouble. The presentation of the good is stunning and the flavours delicious. Portions look small but by the time you have had canapés with drinks, amuse bouche, the tasting menu with an optional cheese course then petit fours it really is lots of food.

About this rrestaurant. They are not pretending to be spectacular chefs. They are truly spectacular. Having eaten in several restaurants who offer a 6/7/9/12 course tasting menu I was not really looking forward to this. Usually each course has little but the collection of ingredients to distinguish one from the other. Not this restaurant. It was the first time ever that I felt every mouthful had been carefully crafted, considered and developed into a remarkable eating experience, rather than being just a showcase for the chef to exhibit their culinary highbrow skills.

As we arrived too early and they hadn't opened we were directed to a nearby wine bar rather than being left out on the street. On returning we were warmly welcomed and led upstairs to a very elegant lounge for our prosecco and baby pastry. We had booked the Great British Menu 4 course dinner which was delicious and also included an amuse bouche, a premain course taster and petit fours with our coffee. Excellent service with a smile and a friendly ambience meant that our evening passed in a lovely warm glow. It's a shame we live a distance away but would recommend Aumbrey for that special romantic meal.

Not that I'm by any means an expert, but this restaurant offers high end dining in a very relaxed and informal atmosphere. It is a pleasure to eat here. There is a choice between two tasting menus. We went for the 9-course option, and the quality and enjoyment in eating remained consistently high course after course. So many different flavours & textures - in fact it became a little difficult to keep track of which course was which after a while (but in a good way). I was particularly impressed with the service (friendly, polite, welcoming) and the attention to detail regarding dietary requirements (always offering alternatives and informing us of ingredients etc.). This is a restaurant that cares about its customers. Thank you.

Very poor value for money, the place is pretentious, the furniture is old and tatty (probably deliberate but did not work for me), the atmosphere is cold, we did not feel very comfortable. For the price they charge (minimum of £60 per person excluding drinks and service) I think all courses should be not only original but very tasty, made of top ingredients, show excellent presentation. The first two courses (veal and scallop) had really bad taste. The soup was ok but the fish course was bland and bordering on being undercooked, there was not enough sauce. The deserts were the best but were they used to compensate for the rest?! Also, the place has no parking and not in the best position. Not happy with service included on the bill.

Presentation and service were second to none and not once did I get the impression of being rushed.<br /><br />Staff were friendly, knowledgeable and not overly attentive... which again helped with the relaxed atmosphere.<br /><br />As an aside, I would say it is a little too expensive....... and a more varied menu would have been welcome.<br /><br />All in all a very pleasent dining experience for special occassions.

There are three menus to choose from, comprising four, six and nine courses. We went for the lightest option and added a cheese course and this was plenty to keep us satisfied. Wines were wonderfully matched to each course and the waiting staff incredibly knowledgable and friendly.

Booked for a four course festive menu, arrived and welcomed to lounge area first and given nibbles there before seated. We were utterly spoiled and ended up adding the cheese option (well worth it). In total we had about 9 courses (including mini snacks and starters). An excellent meal!!

We had a brilliant time at Aumbry this week, my friend and I have a number of dietary requirements and the staff were more than helpful in organising our meal around these.<br />we had the 4 course menu<br />My friend is a vegetarian and said that the food was the best she has had anywhere for vegetarians. I am unable to eat grains and pulses, after much discussion with the waitresses and chefs I was able to still have a fantastic meal with no suggestion that the foods had been altered in any way.<br />would absolutely recommend for a special occasion, not every day as it is quite expensive, but absolutely worth it when you do go.

Having eaten at Aumbry from the very early days of its inception we booked in for a meal approx 1 yr after our last visit<br /><br />Aumbry has changed with a very expensive tasting menu of limited quality as against our previous meals a la carte<br /><br />We thought this a bad move as the service was average and rushed for such a costly offering<br /><br />Prices have increased and our 9 course tasting menu cost nearly £100 more than our 3 full course me a year ago<br /><br />Sorry Aumbry get back to your roots

1st time visit to Aumbry following recomendation from friends.<br />This old converted terraced town house in Prestwich offered fine dinning in a cosy and relaxed atmosphere.<br />Service was friendly, welcoming and on the money. Great to see young engaged staff looking like they are taking pride in good service.<br />The food was equal if not better than some of the Michelin starred places we have visited in the past.<br />We ordered the 9 course tasting menu.<br />Of note was the scallop cerviche with cerleriac,tarragon and coca butter &amp; the hare consome which were both delicious.<br />Really interesting flavours.<br />Great wine matches too.<br />All reasonably priced for a fine dinning experience.<br />We will be back. Thank you.

We went for our anniversary and the experience was great, the drama of the food, the service was fantastic and the ambience was perfect.<br /><br />It was just a shame that we didn&#039;t really enjoy all of the dishes. I completely get the fine dining experience is different but the flavours of the dishes just didn&#039;t cut it for us. Some things were excellent however, the beef dripping. the scotch eggs, the goat and the frozen hazelnut lollies! More of flavours like that on the menu and I&#039;m sure we would go again. At £220 for a meal that we didn&#039;t fully enjoy, we probably won&#039;t go back.

Excellent as always, the ambience is wonderful, the crockery is quirky and cool but oldy worldly. The staff are amazing and the food outstanding.

This restaurant has a lovely, cosy, vintage feel with enormous black and white prints of the likes of Dennis Hopper gracing the walls. Food was carefully constructed, beautifully presented and tasted delicious. Service was at times quirky (and therefore a big thumbs-up for us) and at other times less-than-slick (if a Michelin star is their ultimate goal). Favourite bit was the trifle for dessert. Thanks for a lovely evening!

The food is exquisite, full of taste and flavours, and beautifully presented.<br />The accompanying wine tasting was well worth it. the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and professional and exceedingly accommodating as my wife was pregnant and couldn&#039;t have certain things.<br />Fantastic for a treat!

• cucumber infusion was tapwater, server refused to taste, but brought new supply that was delicious cucumbers<br />• nice amuses - especially the scotch egg<br />• the tea at the beginning is a mistake<br />• smocked mackerel nice<br />• scallop cebiche excellent<br />• turbot overcooked and disappointing<br />• suckling pig far too salty<br />• nice deserts<br />• too often a beetroot variant<br />• staff too inexperienced for the price range of the restaurant, bread too late, wine glasses not filled, shrugging of shoulders when we had valid comment (like no cucumber taste in 1st batch)

First time dining at Aumbury. Met with smiles and wonderful aromas as soon as I walked through the door. From start to finish it was the most enjoyable experience. Wonderful ambience, excellent service and sublime food. The only consideration for this restaurant is parking.... I wasnt aware of any restaurant parking and parking on the street outside is very tight! But if you are drinking and enjoying the wines, thats not a problem!

Stunning food. A combination of &#039;high end&#039; cooking, thoughtful ideas and a touch of molecular gastronomy thrown in for good measure. If, like me, you are a bit of a &#039;foodie&#039;; there are dishes that will excite, alongside dishes that will challenge.<br />The staff are charming and intelligent; knowing when it is appropriate to engage in &#039;banter&#039; with the customer, and when to hold back.

Absolutely mind blowing 9 course taster menu at Aumbrey. An amazing three and a half hour experience with barely a missed note (which is quite a feat with 9 courses, plus the many canapés, petits fours and palette cleansers). As well as amazing food the waiting staff were brilliant, with a great balance of efficiency, friendliness and irreverent Northern humour.<br />Despite it being the best meal I have ever eaten I can&#039;t quite give it 5s across the board because it was also by far the most expensive meal I&#039;ve ever eaten. At £130 pp (incl drinks and tip) it was worth every penny but hardly qualifies as a bargain.

One of the best meals had in a long time. Great food and staff. We went for lunch and I am 8 months pregnant. The staff couldn&#039;t have been more thoughtful in this respect checking what I could eat and offering substitutes<br />Wonderful place.

We&#039;ve been looking forward to a trip to Aumbry for a long time and we were not disappointed! The surroundings, the staff, the food and the ambience were all impeccable - we were treated like the most special people in the room and we felt well looked after from the moment we stepped through the door. Incredible food, beautifully presented, well described by staff and wonderfully sourced - the wild rabbit pie, in particular, was one of the most wonderful things I&#039;ve ever eaten. The little touches like hand-churned local butter and petit fours after our meal were the icing on the beautiful foodie cake that is Aumbry - an experience we shan&#039;t forget, and one we can&#039;t wait to replicate very soon indeed.

Mary-Ellen, one half of the chef proprietorship of Aumbry has spent time with Heston Blumenthal &amp; it shows!<br />A unique menu, I had the set lunch menu of 2 x courses that included the longhorn aged beef, my partner included the rabbit pie in his choice. Both were presented with precision &amp; appetite appeal &amp; accompanied by shredded kale. We were not disappointed - the beef was succulent, the rabbit meltingly soft. But the outstanding item for me was the dessert of grapefruit posset topped with celery granita; you have to try it to really understand how perfectly these flavours &amp; textures work together.<br />At just over £20 for the lunchtime menu, it&#039;s a steal.

Had the tasting menu. Mentioned that I dont like mushrooms, since one of the courses was mushroom soup. This was easily changed to the absolutely awesome celeriac soup! The tasting menu is a great way to try a variety of different dishes. Each looks so beautiful and the taste is even better than the appearance. The service was excellent. The staff are very good. They are friendly yet professional. They are very knowledgable regarding both the food and the wine. Have been a few times now and cannot fault Aumbry.

Throughout the night, the word my partner and I used to describe the food was ‘interesting’. The surroundings were very pleasant (although overly warm in the dining area) and the service outstanding.<br />The food itself, however, was a bit on the salty side for my liking and the main beef dish, slightly tough. Overall though, food was interesting and worth a visit.

We loved the Tuesday night tasting Menu..5 courses plus several &#039;extra&#039; amuse bouches.. all for £25. Amazing flavours and great home made breads with superb old fashioned beef dripping dip. Staff super attentive and friendly without any pretension.. Would also recommend trying the 5 wines with the tasting menu (£22).. all superb,different &amp; interesting.<br />All this in what looks from the outside like someones little house.<br />A real gem of a restaurant..so glad we discovered it.

We went to the Aumbry for my husband&#039;s 40th, we had the 5 course tasting menu which on a Tuesday at £25pp was outstanding value. I&#039;m currently 7 months pregnant and found the staff very accomodating with my dietry requirements. We&#039;ve eaten in a lot of michelin star restaurants and quite a few of the &#039;good&#039; restaurants in Manchester and would put the Aumbry on a par with the michelin ones that we have been to in London. This is by far the best restaurant in Manchester.

I booked this as a surprise for my fiancée, on a recommendation from a friend.<br /><br />I was unsure initially as I had heard that the venue was a converted cottage, quite small + I knew it was just off a busy main road.<br /><br />However, from the second we walked through the door the service was second to none with one waitress in particular (Kimberley) being absolutely brilliant. She was friendly, informative + knowledgable whilst also being very modest + enthusiastic. An absolute credit.<br /><br />The lounge area was very homely + comfortable + the 5* treatment began right away with delicious canapés. The food just kept coming in many small but mouth-watering dishes, several of which were totally unexpected + not a single one disappointed.<br /><br />Highly recommended!!

This was the third time we had been to Aumbry and it was even better than I remember.<br />It started with a warm welcome and perusal of the menu. The menu is short but there is plenty of quality there. Being firmly of the less is more school and not having too many dislikes it suits me perfectly.<br />My wife had the accompanying wine option and they were a interesting and varied collection of wines.<br /><br />All in all it was a excellent food and excellent friendly service.

Had previously reviewed as 'top chippy' well visited today for chips & they are dreadful- overcooked (reheated) greasy swimming in vinegar how this can be passed over the counter and money taken is ridiculous I put them back in vinegar soggy box to return but couldn't be bothered - need to diet so the bin says thanks

Absoutely fantastic family Sunday roast made by Nora's Kitchen at the Chorlton Tap. Everyone had something different from the menu and all agreed it was the best roast they'd ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection and was delicious, the Yorkshire puddings were out of this world!! Excellent service and amazing value too. Save yourself the hassle and cost of doing your own and come to the Chorlton Tap to enjoy a gorgeous Sunday roast cooked to order.

Went for the Hollywood Supperclub with the wine flight. Food was excellent and the wines complemented each course. Fantastic value for money; we are going back again for a different menu next week. Massive shout out to our server, Millie; polite, attentive and knowledgable about both the food and the wines.

We were on a day out and saw this place which looked appealing. Choice looked good. Pre Ordered and paid at the counter, the lad serving was friendly. When the drinks came the waitress just plonked them down, without telling us which coffee was which so we guessed, she followed with the food again no conversation or smile… it doesn’t take much. Food was nice enough
