Afiyet Restaurant And Bar in Stockport

When we got there, the entire restaurant was empty. We asked and the waiter explained it’s just because of the school going back in. We accepted this as a possibility and ordered. The starters came but unfortunately they was slightly underwhelming. We just hoped the food we had ordered for mains would be better. The sea bass my partner had was greasy, the potatoes were obviously microwaved or not fresh and I didn’t even touch my burger as it looked like a fatter rustlers burger. Spent £57 to be told that we couldn’t have a refund on the inedible fish. They apparently DO NOT have a refund system on their till. Date night ruined with my long distance relationship and has completely ruined the evening. Was offered more fish but we obviously declined. Never been so unhappy with food before. What a joke.

I thought this place was great to be honest. Four adults, five kids. Kids ate free, host was super friendly and helpful, food was good. Kids food was good. Top stuff.

Visited here as part of a family booking of 8 for my father in laws birthday last weekend. The restaurant was a nice looking place and very quiet for a Saturday afternoon, there were a couple of tables outside and just us inside. Initial service for drinks and food orders taken quickly. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives ended. When the food was delivered, the first plate was wrong and wasn’t what had been ordered. Apologies were made and it was took back, I guess these things can happen. However, the rest of the food then came in stages, meaning 3 of us were still waiting on meals while everyone else was waiting to start eating. I don’t understand why on a quiet Saturday afternoon, food couldn’t be ready to be served to a table together. It resulted in the rest of us having to start eating or it would have been cold by the time everyone else’s arrived. It eventually all turned up, and to the restaurants credit, they gave us the incorrect meal they had brought earlier as a freebie. The food itself looked lovely, well presented, and was tasty enough. Not the best I’ve had though, particularly given the price. The prices here are , in my opinion, very expensive. For the 3 of us that came from our party it was £100 for what were essentially 3 kebabs with one serving of chips and a drink each. No starters /deserts etc. The restaurant also add on a service charge which was an additional £25 on the bill, although the waiter did say it wasn’t compulsory. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, given how quiet it was in there, service was poor, food and drink expensive for what it is.

Had an excellent Meze, the service was great. My Daughter and I throughly enjoyed the experience. We will definitely be there again. Thank you !!

Lovely food and staff. Will defo be going back

This is such a lovely place! We took advantage of the lunch menu, which is reasonably priced, and the food was amazing. Added a portion of pita bread and I enjoyed a glass of White Zinfandel. The service was brilliant and we didn't wait long for our food or drinks. I'll definitely be visiting again!

We ate here today and the food was absolutely lovely! There is a wide choice across the menu and we had a few dishes from it which were all so well cooked and flavoured. We would definitely visit again!

Great family meal, 7 adults and four kids served in double quick time, everyone happy nice friendly staff, great variety of dishes, staff did the birthday cake thing for our 6 yr old. Will come again soon the food was fantastic.

The food is so good! Also recommend the mocktails. The manager was really friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommended.

Amazing food and amazing service. Would definately recommend

Came today at lunch time for a meal such a shame that it’s so quiet because the food is beautiful and the restaurant and atmosphere is amazing!! Great lunch time offers and deals on cocktails and Ali the manager that looked after us couldn’t be more helpful will be definitely coming back soon. Highly recommend 😃

Always a genuine, friendly, warm welcome from Ali, who never fails to deliver 110% service. There is a good selection of delicious food. The surroundings are lovely and the background music is just right. Always an enjoyable vist. Many thanks to all the staff.

I didn't like it, you need to treat visitors better

Ali the manager was brilliant 🤩

Lovely Turkish restaurant with plenty of room to sit and a great lunch time special menu. Excellent service and tasty food. Cheered us up on a rainy day.

I have visited Afiyet restaurant recently and I loved the food and the ambiance. Nice and lovely staffs and it’s one of the best restaurant I have ever been to.

Ate here on 4th of May food was really good staff were lovely would 100% recommend

Beautiful food in a lovely environment. Lots of selection of drinks including cocktails. We all chose chicken shish and shared a lovely bruschetta starter. Will be back soon!

My pasta was perfect, I wish they had an option for three pastas small size so I can taste the others without being full. The burger was delicious and I wouldn’t change nothing with it but add caramelised onions instead of raw. The steak I wish was better quality, it did taste a a little tough. Presentation for all dishes was top tier and finally my server Ali was such a gentleman. The price point matches so I would definitely come again.

The food was excellent and the staff are very professional/friendly. The selection and the quality of the lunch menu is very good value. We highly recommend this restaurant

Been wanting to go for a while, and wasn't disappointed. Lovely food and nice friendly staff. The restaurant is also very clean and well decorated

A good place to visit, with some great decor, the food was delicious and the service was great. The restaurant has a light and airy feeling and if you are looking for a nice quiet place to have a good meal, give Afiyet a try.

All round fantastic experience, the staff were really nice and friendly and we were a group of 16 and they looked after us all very well. The food was very nice and all came out in good time. The Adana kebab is something I would have again

Great food,great decor and the staff were so attentive and nice,it was lovely.

A nice restaurant. Good food. Restaurant is nicely decorated giving it a clean modern place to eat. Recommend.

The food and service was fantastic.

Severe tree nut reaction to food that caused immediate vomiting. Restaurant had nothing to say besides denying there were any nuts in their food. Terrible customer service and terrible choice for any group with food allergies.

I had a lovely Friday night with my family. The food was exceptional and the service was great. The waiter was friendly and helpful. Chicken shish and sharing platter was delicious and definitely worth the price.

I am over from France visiting friends, so they suggested this new restaurant in Stockport, The restaurant was lovely clean, the staff were so attentive, It was a quiet Tuesday evening The presentation of the food was outstanding I had a chicken salad and sweet potato fries,the quality and freshness was really super. The downside was being charged £5.00 for a diet coke which I feel is robbery for a soft drink, All the soft drinks on the bill really added up . On the whole the experience was great

Went in today whilst passing through Red rock for the two course lunchtime menu for me and my wife. The service was first class and very frrindly. The food was fantastic in both quality, taste and variety. We ordered cheese roll starter and Halloumi and warm bread, the presentation and dips etc were lovely. For mains I had a peri peri chicken skewer with lovely rice, salad and thin home made wrap underneath with 2 lovely dips, my wife had Pollo pasta with mushrooms and parmesan all lovely alongside 2 beautiful Pina Coladas.. All for under 42 quid including Cocktails.

We visited here on the 29th. Ot has a lovely atmosphere the food tasted delicious and was Well presented. The service was great and good value for money. We had the lunchtime deal .Recommend a visit here you won't be disappointed.

Fresh and flavoursome! 5 of us dining and each had a different meal. Really tasty chicken and lamb dishes. Cocktails were overpriced so we just stuck to beers and ciders which was a bit of a let down. Definitely be back for food though 😋

Beautiful restaurant, lovely food and staff very friendly. It's definitely worth the cost. Will be going again 😃.

Very expensive food with little taste to it. The best thing about the restaurant are the drinks which are all delicious and well made. However, main courses are very expensive (£20+) for what is a very bland taste. The food is not bad, but there are definitely much cheaper and better alternatives in Stockport and even on the same street. Overall, I was disappointed by my meal despite how beautiful the interior was. The desserts were just okay.

Good food but one waiter for the entire restaurant, which was fully booked. We waited an hour and a half for food and missed the table reservation at the bar we were going to.

I'm really not sure how this place has scored so highly as our experience really wasn't that good. The seafood platter amounted to nothing more than a few Turkish style dips and sauces with 'seafood' straight from an Iceland party pack: fishcake, a handful of filo prawns and squid rings. The price was excessive for what was essentially a picky tea with a vague eastern Mediterranean theme!

Excellent food, lambs chops were especially good, everyone ate well, portions a decent size too so some came home with us. Service was attentive, really surprised how quiet it was given how nice it was.

This is a brilliant restaurant. We found it by default, the first time we ate here. Really glad we did. We ate there again, for the second time last night, as we were in Stockport. This time it was our 'choice'. The food is amazing, especially the seafood meze - you have to try it! Portions are generous. Service is impeccable. We would not FOR A SECOND hesitate in recommending this restaurant.

Excellent food and service. Wish kebab was very nice. Chicken salad recommended. Staff very attentive, food served quickly

This is a fabulous restaurant, amazing food, good choice of drinks, and fantastic staff. My new favourite place to go.

Stockport has needed somewhere like this for years for special occasions. Lovely food, people and decor.

My third time visiting tonight. The food is unbelievable, the service matches. Such good quality food, waiting times and service. The full package, will definitely be back! Thank you ☺️

This is a lovely restaurant, and something that Stockport Town Centre really needs. We had a beautiful meal and could not fault a thing. The service was exceptional and the food was cooked to perfection, very tasty and well presented. It wasn't busy for a Wednesday evening and more people should give this place a try. We will certainly return and recommend to others. We are looking forward to our next visit already.

The food was beautiful, the waiter was very polite, the interior is very stylish! I loved this restaurant and so did my fiancée and her mother! I'd highly recommend coming here if you want Mediterranean food and happen to be in Stockport 😊! 10 stars 😁!

Avoid at all costs, horrendously overpriced, I have never experienced.such slow service(or lack of) in my life. We were here for our Christmas meal and there were 26 of us (preordered our meals a week ago) it took 45 minutes from the 1st meal to the last one to be delivered to the table. Portions are tiny, everyone left hungry. now onto Spoons for a beer and a burger for better food and service.

Went for a Christmas meal with work, what a mistake that was!!!! We preordered a week before we came, yet staff still couldn't cope. Granted there were 26 of us, but only 1 waiter looking after our table and no urgency in the kitchen led to a 45 minute wait between our 1st main being served and the last. Portions were tiny, way over priced and an £80 service charge was forced onto our bill, despite the complete lack of service. I will never return.

Absolutely fantastic service and food from all of the team here. Went for our Christmas do and everything was spot on, we couldn't fault a thing. The staff couldn't do enough for us and the food was perfect and timed exceptionally well throughout our Christmas Quiz at the table. Thank you all once again. S&T Wealth.

We visited this lovely restaurant for a work social event and the food and atmosphere were excellent would highly recommend the gentleman was extremely pleasant and couldn’t do enough for us there was a slight mix up with our bill but this was corrected immediately and dealt with in a professional manner will definitely return

Had a lovely 2 course lunch. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff are great. Delicious food for the price. Will definitely return soon.. Thank you Afiyet

Went here on the off chance with my husband and wasn’t disappointed, the food was gorgeous and cooked to perfection and the staff were lovely They need to advertise more as I hadn’t heard of the place and the place wasn’t busy Will definitely visit again

We went for lunch and it was really lovely, the food and service was really good! Will definitely be back

Decided to give this place a try for the first time and was very pleasantly surprised. The service was great, the man who I’m assuming is the manager was very polite and helpful and even treated us to a little hummus and bread board. We only had a small meal but the garlic bread and lamb chops were definitely the standouts in terms of food. The decor is also very nice and classy. Will be returning to try more from the grill in the future!

Ate here today for the first time. Very high quality food, service and decor. Best Turkish restaurant in Manchester by a country mile. On the menu it looks expensive but with the portion sizes and sharers it’s good value for money with groups of 2+

Visited last night and had a lovely meal. We had the Afiyet sharing platter to start which was amazing and then the mixed kebab for mains. The meat was cooked perfectly, juicy and tender. Couldn’t fault it. The staff are very attentive and friendly. Just a shame it’s not busier and more people aren’t supporting it. It was our second visit and we will definitely be back.

There were six of us at the table. Only one other table was occupied on a Tuesday evening. We ordered mixed starters which were fine. They were out of garlic breads apparently. We had four mixed grills, a burger and chips, and an aubergine dish. Although the vegetarian food was OK, the meat dishes were poor. The meat cuts were dry as a bone, tough as nails. It was either yesterdays meat re-heated, or fresh meat cooked so badly as to remove all moisture and texture. The buger was described by my colleague as "worse than a Rustlers". One bite of the burger was enough. Five nearly full plates of food were collected from the table with no apology. I was told by the waiter that the food must be OK because the other table had not complained. We left at the same time as the other table. A conversation with them confirmed that their opinion of the food was the same as ours, they just ate more of it and didn't complain. We bought two bottles of admittedly quite nice Malbec, plus beers, and the food. The four mixed grills alone came to £100 and the total food bill exceeded £300. The waiter eventually gave us a refund on the "burger" but refused any further accomodation. Not recommended.

Rare date night was made 10X better! Food was some of the best we’ve ever eaten we’ve told everyone about how good it was! Staff were absolutely amazing so friendly and respectful, couldn’t believe how quiet it was for a Saturday night with how gorgeous everything here is!! Also very reasonably priced my husband and I can’t wait to come back!

Great lunchtime menu - two courses for £10.00. Excellent food and service. Sadly we were the only two in the restaurant. I sincerely hope it gets busier - support your local businesses

Just been here for our third visit and it was amazing, the service was great and the food was lovely. Highly recommend!

Halal restaurant. Super deluxe restaurant in the midst of Stockport. Food was excellent. Service really fantastic. So glad we found it. Will be returning again. The mix grill and home made Ayran, DEFINITELY highly recommend. 5* Thank you.

Lovely meal tonight, great atmosphere, food was excellent and Ali couldn’t have been a better host. The sea bass was incredible and we’ll definitely be back again and bringing a bigger crowd next time! Loved it.

Very delicious food and great atmosphere. I would like to thank the service manager Ali for his friendly and wonderful service.

Sadly, the restaurant was too busy for the 3 members of staff they had serving. We had a table booked for 7, drinks ordered at 7:15, turned up at 7:25. Starters came at a good time, but it took them 20 minutes to remove them. The mains turned up at 8:25 - 1 hour and 25 minutes after we sat down. The lamb shish was a little chewy but edible. Sadly, I think the night was let down but the lack of staff. Might return for a second chance, but won't be my main choice.

Ali was a fantastic host Really good food

Amazing restaurant with the most attentive staff ever! The food was incredible (I highly recommend the pasta!!), great value for money. Highly recommend, I hope I get the opportunity to go again.

Very good service, good atmosphere and food was value for money. Thank you very much!

On arrival the bar looked promising. But sadly, the establishment is all fit voat no knickers. Ordered a mocktail, priced at £8 so thought they must be special, also ordered an £11 bramble. It was not a bramble, did not look like a bramble, did not taste like a bramble. The bar tender made me another, which was still awful. Then I was brought the menu and explained what goes into one. Drank them all my life. In the end, after an uncomfortable exchange it was taken off the bill. Would not recommend.

Absolutely beautiful food in lovely surroundings and the most attentive staff that make you feel so welcome,definitely recommend everything cooked to perfection and the furnishings are so inviting!

Outstanding food and overall dining experience! Definetaly recommend to anyone wanting well priced high quality food

Great time however we had to wait 2+ hours for the food because one if the chefs were not here the waiter was very nice especially the women with blond hair , food was nice but portion was small overall good time

I went here with my partner for lunch before the cinema on a Sunday afternoon. It's a lovely looking place but was fairly quiet. Our food was lovely and the portions a good size. We stayed for desert too. Staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely go back. I recommend you give it a try, the music was good too!

Gorgeous food, very polite staff, clean and cozy but modern environment, perfect date night. Will 💯 be back with the family. Thank you for a really nice evening 🙌🏻

Discriminatory destination for the undiscerning diner. The place looks okay but clearly targets a particular type. Looking for somewhere to take my mother for an early dinner we tried this place. Menu looked OK so we ordered a seafood mezze platter. This consisted of 4 small dips, 2 pita breads, some olives, fresh from a jar, and the "seafood". The dips were broadly acceptable. The hummus and the yoghurt were OK. Tasted like any supermarkets deli product. The eggplant was nice. The pepper dip was heavily, mouth puckeringly over-vinegared Then the seafood. Oh the seafood! There were 2 pieces each of battered frozen calamari, one 'fishcake" each and a "tempura prawn". The fishcake was a smiley face away from a potato smile. Barely 1% fish. The calamari was edible though not fresh. The tempura appeared to be missing a prawn. Either that or it had died in the paleolithic age and subsequently dug up as a fossil before being battered and fried. Brick hard. The waiter asked how the food was, so I told him. He explained patiently that tempura Prawns were traditionally fried until hard. I asked from which part of Japan that tradition came. He said, with authority and somewhat patronisingly that Turkish tempura was a different dish. I asked which part of Turkey the dish came from, being familiar with Anatolia, Ankara, the Marmara, Istanbul, the Goreme valley, the Aegean seaboard Cappadoccia, and a few other areas. In none of the areas or cities I have ever visited, do they serve their seafood destroyed. He shrugged and walked off. One star removed for food, one star removed for service. On the point of service, another star is removed for ageism. At 5 pm the restaurant was empty apart from an office party of about 16, intent on getting a wobble on. On entry the waiter asked if we had a reservation. We said "no, he directed us to a small table for 2 well away from the door or the windows. I complied though the window banquette seat looked more welcoming. I figured that with only 2 of us, the banquette for 6 would be wasted. Two more mature couples arrived and again, having no reservation were put onto pokey distant tables. Both couples, after initially complying, stood up and moved their cutlery to nicer tables. We should have done the same. After about half an hour, a young couple, sashayed in. Again no reservation, but after pulling his eyes away from the exposed DD rack where the young lady stashed her candy pink vape, ushered them towards the 6 seater banquette in the window, where she cheerfully flicked her dyed hair and glued her chewing gum to the underside of the table. They ordered diet coke and surreptitiously tipped their quarter bottle of vodka into it, again under the table. So another star removed for discrimination On the good side, the toilets were clean and nice. And the chairs were very comfortable. So one star above rock-bottom for those. Great place to go if you want to get out of the rain, but don't order food. Apparently it's okay to bring your own alcohol too, if you are in the target demographic. Though they were a bit sneaky there so it might not be encouraged. It's next door to pizza express, which, though not gourmet at least offers value for money. Maybe give that a whirl if you are hungry. It's where went next, to fill up!

Edit: I returned several times now and the food is delicious, the staff is still really friendly and happy to recommend dishes when asked. I really like this place and highly recommend. The staff is really lovely and the hummous really tasty. We were short on time but will come back again to try a full meal.

To be honest the food is delicious but the portion is small, we were looking for family big portions as other restaurants serve, the prices also little bit high. But the food is one of the best grills i've tried.

We went around 3pm and it was very quiet. We were seated in a nice comfy booth, the decor is quite stylish. Food and service were great. Another good addition to Stockport town centre.

For a Saturday night it was quiet but the good was excellent.

Absolutely diabolical! One poor waitress (Rebecca) serving the whole restaurant. We could see our starter waiting under the lights on the kitchen hatch, lower to keep it warm! The poor waitress was on her own and we felt so sorry for her! I offered to...

Amazing food, staff are great will definitely go again.

Have eaten here twice and had a good experience both times. We have also recommended to friends.

Family meal for a group of 8. Staff were very welcoming and the place looks great. I was initially a bit concerned as not many people were present….but this soon changed Staff were great, welcoming and very attentive….informed food was halal Food was served pretty quickly…..garlic butter prawns are a must for starters….the butter was amazing….lamb shank was great and the mixed grill was good too…..great classy venue …you won’t be disappointed

Everything is good ❤️ Service and food were top notch😍 very cool place, I recommend it to everyone. personal approach to each visitor, simply at the highest level

Very good customer service and the food was nice and hot. Really lovely atmosphere, would highly recommend 😁

I attended here with my mum and sister for a catch up. We wanted somewhere we could have a coffee, some meze and to relax. The restaurant is lovely and despite it being fairly empty we still felt like there was a nice, comfortable atmosphere....

I thought this place was very overpriced we were charged £4 for a lime and soda and also for extra pitta bread. The veg platter was over £20 and consisted of a few dips and not enough pitta bread to finish it. Mains again very expensive and not great quality. There are far nicer Turkish restaurants around South Manchester and Cheadle that are much more reasonably priced and better quality. Shame as I was excited to try it here but felt very over charged and didn’t feel there were any extras for that price (a couple of Turkish delights with the bill or jug of tap water brought to table is a nice touch etc). I feel either prices need to reflect the food or the food and experience needs to improve to reflect the high price!

I came here for Ramadan today with my family. We ordered Afiyet sharing platter and Mix grill for sharing. Absolutely amazing food and amazing staff. It is a very clean place and has an amazing atmosphere. The prices are normal when you compare quality. I totally recommend it.

Went to Afiyet on Redrock for Mother’s Day meal. Don’t bother. We ordered lamb shish, chicken shish and lamb shank but when the order came, they brought a chicken dish out instead of the lamb shank. We asked where his meal was and the waiter said that the lamb shank had run out and the chef had sent out a special instead. We asked what it was and they said it was a Thai chicken dish. So we started to eat ours and then he cut into the chicken. A piece of raw chicken fell out on his plate. We all stopped eating and called the waiter over. We explained what he had found and the waiter went back to the kitchen. He then came back saying that’s how the Thai dish is supposed to be cooked. I said it’s raw, if that’s ok I dread to think what the health standards are in the kitchen. We refused to eat anymore of the food and asked for the bill. Over £30 for 3 starters and 3 non alcoholic drinks. He said if we came back another time he would make sure we would get a good discount. Think you need to change your chef, otherwise someone will report you to hygiene standards if that happens to someone else’s food. That dish looked 🤮.

Never again! We had seen this place and reviewed the menu where we saw food is expensive for Stockport but we wanted to give it a try. We arrived on a Friday evening to 2 tables being occupied and we were the third. Considering there...

Stumbled across by chance after a cinema trip, very welcoming, food was amazing and reasonably priced will definitely be returning xx

Went for a meal Friday night, service was very poor considering it was quiet. Starters served to the wrong table, they touched to see if it was their food then they tried to serve the same food to us. No apology until the bill was paid, took around an hour to get our mains. There was no effort in the service, it’s such a shame as the food was good and place was very clean. Couldn’t imagine what it would have been like if it was busy. Won’t be coming back anytime soon.

I was very happy with the fast service and quality of food I received. I will definitely be returning! Chefs and staff were amazing, couldn’t ask for anything more!

I visited with my family and it was absolutely amazing!! They treated us with kindness very welcoming. Food was amazing especially Chefs Afiyet Special. Drinks were amazing. I will definitely come back and recommend to my friends and family!

Very nice restaurant. I went there with my family. The best atmosphere in Stockport and very delicious food as well. Definitely come back to Afiyet.

Last time we went was so disappointing. I have tried to resolve it but had no response. The service was bizarre, plates just put on the table, not infront of the person. We were over charged and waited 45 minutes to get the bill. Not good. Not bothered if it would of been resolved over email 🙄

Very good❤️ thank you very much❤️ The best restaurant in Manchester 😌

Unfortunately for me it wasn't the experience I was so looking forward to. Staff really weren't that bothered apart from one lovely lady and personally i felt it was a little overpriced for what you got. Such a shame as I was really excited to come here. Hoping it was just a one off bad night. However the venue was beautiful and classy and bang on trend. Sorry afiyet

Excellent Service from all waiters with extremely fast service and top quality food. Cocktails and food presented to perfection! I have recommended to friends and am booked to return for my birthday next month.

The restaurant is beautiful, not what we expected at all. Staff were lovely however service was slow even though there were only 3 tables in there. Food was nice too

First but not last visit. Beautiful place and very friendly staff. Service was great. Food was lovely. Fabulous experience overall. Thankyou so much 💓

Had an amazing experience, the food was delicious and lots to choose from the menu. Ambiance was fab and Arda the staff was really helpful. Will def be coming back ;)

Really pleasant place to eat, the food was delicious and the staff were really good and friendly. Would definitely go again.
