Bar Mcr in Tameside

I know airports are meant to be a miserable experience but this place is next level - nary a smile or ounce of charm from any member of staff. The discussion about why my second round cost more than the first (despite being identical) captured the existential angst of this broken nation.

The ambiance was lively, and the atmosphere was perfect. The highlight of the evening was the excellent service provided by Shahad. Who was attentive, friendly, and ensured that all our needs were met promptly. The drinks were well-crafted, and the overall experience was top-notch.

T1 best ever bar. Always smiling staff, especially Thomas. Make us feel welcome. Food was delicious and delivered fast.

Service was quick and friendly from Anna, food came out quick and was hot pretty reasonable prices considering its at Manchester Airport

Anna was amazing - great service provided by her. Food was lovely. Overall a really great experience and I would recommend a visit to the bar when in terminal 1. The staff are so friendly - a real credit to bar

Been served by Antony it great lad and great team to

Had a great experience here before we traveled. Lovely food friendly service at a price that didn’t actually break the bank. 🙏🙏

Absolutely wonderful and polite staff. Thomas did as much as he could to help us with allergies. 1st class service. Definitely I can recommend this bar with delicious food. Thank you so much for your help.

I dos fly last teusday from T1 Manchester airport and had lovely meal and great beer on bar MCR was nice start from holidays. Thanks to Anthony and the team work all lovely and friendly

Excellent service from Bar man Josh! very funny geezer. Awesome. Cannot express how quickly and easily i was served, and i was inpressed by the vast selection of alcohol to offer.

Great place for pre flight cocktails with the girls. Friendly staff too

Shahad makes a great job, everything was fine

Bruno and the team are amazing 🤩

Great service and lovely staff.

On the 13/624 my travelling companion experienced a medical episode in this bar. The young man behind the bar whose name I cannot remember, acted promptly and ensured para medics and airport customer services arrived swiftly. My companion is now, hopefully recovering in his local hospital but my gratitude to this young man will never be forgotten. Well done and thank you.

5 people working, 5 people in the queue yet it’s taking 20min to be served. Never seen such a disorganised bar/restaurant

Ordered a breakfast at 7:01 sat down and waited out drinks had come after ten minutes as for the food it never showed up we asked where it was at 7:45 so they apologised and said they would refund us for the food and send us a breakfast so we waited until 8:10 asked again and turned round and said they had refunded us so we wasn’t getting any which is terrible try to avoid here and go elsewhere if possible

Not bad for some food before a flight, prices not terrible for an airport. Food comes out fast, maybe even too fast, took less than 5 minutes. Better than too slow though I suppose. Okay ish food, think weatherspoons but more expensive.

I took the Pulled Beef Yorkshire Pudding Wrap (14£) and there was so little meat inside that they should put it in the Veggie options!! Juste à shame!

Absolutely rammed, no seats available. 10min queue for drinks, got through security quicker! Then got charged over £44 for 4 drinks.

Served by the lovely Sandra, nice gaff. Beer tastes good.

Great staff very pleasant kept the bar and tables cleaned food was hot and tasted great reccomend fries with nacho cheese and chicken bites . Would use this bar again no hesitation thank you.

One barman very good, other one (manager?) Only able to serve people standing in front of him

Great bar at the airport...Great staff....

Manager refusing and tyrning people away from the bar because he wants them to use the app to order. He needs to be aware that the app is very slow and some people don’t have the time to wait around.. also, some people aren’t very good with technology, especially the older generation. I’ve sat here for 40 minutes and watched the manager turn away 50+ people and has been quite rude. Others may want to pay with cash. This is not good customer service on his behalf. He needs to be more people friendly and smile.

This was a great place to start off our trip away for a few days. Lots of seating overlooking the airport, varied menu and quick service. On the expensive side but no more than any other airport eatery. Worth a visit!

Very friendly service, our food arrived very quickly, nice and tasty. It was nice to see friendly staff after having a terrible experience next door at The Grain Loft.

no staff can use tills and won't take cash ffs

This bar is located after security in Manchester Airport. It has a light and bright location with views over the airport. It has printed menus on the table and takes cash. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed a light breakfast before our flight.

Food: Breakfast was shocking for knocking on £16 and not 1 item on the plate was warm let alone hot. A breakfast that doesn't come with toast at nearly £16 is just pure greed. £2 for 1 slice of toast nah. Will remember for next time and go to Giraffe at least I know the service in there is better. 5 stars for atmosphere as you can't expect much at 5am.

The staff are amazing and full of personality especially the one with the bright pink hair! If only everyone looked like her. Also, the food is probably the best at the airport and it probably has the best atmosphere as everywhere else feels too busy and cluttered in comparison. Would 100% recommend to anyone travelling abroad.

a fry up and a stella £22.90. I know it's an airport but takes the piss that. wasn't even that nice. and I'm on a fixed income.

This is the best place in T1 to have food and drinks, the staff and entire team are amazing if I could give 6 stars overall I would, thanks team MCR for making our holiday getaway the best ever!! Keep up the great work

Anna was amazing brilliant service very friendly and funny she went above and beyond

Friendly service and great food, well done 😊

Leaving a positive review due to the super friendly staff here at Bar Mcr! Our servers name was Danny. Our server behind the bar was also excellent although I didn't catch his name.

Had a couple of drinks.Great service and staff very helpful

Anna that served us was just what we needed after a long trip home from Morocco and before flying back to Belfast. She was very friendly and bubbly and a great breath of fresh air. Thank you Anna.

Excelent service and food!! Sarah and Marco made us amazing cocktails !! I totally recommend this place!!

Really pleasant and friendly staff

Great fish finger bap friendly service

Eh everything was mediocre abit overpriced probably would go to the cheaper bar next time however not the worst place in the airport

Reasonable priced. Sara served us and was very helpful

Fantastic service definitely recommended Anna

Bruno was fantastic and made us feel welcome and in holiday mode 😎

Airport journey- Beatriz served me very lovely service good laugh and remembered my order

Great service , great experience and what we needed to start our holiday .will definitely come back . Thank you for Everything

Food and drink came out really quick. Friendly staff and good cocktails. Will visit again next time in T1

I have been at MCR for a drink and some food. The service was amazing the speed and food 5 star's. I did ask for the manager at the time and Bruno Pereira call my attention, becouse He was kind, friendly and give me all attention I was looking for. I do well recommended 👌 thank you All.

Initial plate of nachos had cold beef, but was replaced on request with a much warmer meat. Tasty meal

Beware same drinks twice two different prices.

Only had drinks but the service was amazing. Beatriz served us and was the perfect start to our Christmas holidays !!

£17.50 for 2 drinks, captive audience

The breakfast was fantastic quality and very quick service! Was served by Anthony, very polite and friendly!

We flew out of Manchester Terminal 1 earlier this morning. As always we received a warm welcome from Anna, excellent service with a friendly smile. Look forward to coming back in the future

Anthony was very efficient, customer service was excellent, didn’t waste a minutes getting us sorted 👍

Professional and friendly staff, good choice of food and most importantly clean!!!! Best place to go to in T1

Great service, Anthony was very helpful

Great service by Sara, smiling and friendly

Sara was lovely on the bar, kind and helpful. Thank you.

lovely friendly staff. Sara who took my order was very friendly. the lady who brought my food to the table was also friendly and welcoming. Sara followed up and asked me how the food was which I thought was very nice. i had scrambled eggs on toast and english breakfast tea. the food was delish, particularly the toast mmmm. overall would recommemd you try this place!

Ana was fabulous ! Her service even early on in the morning was impeccable! Thank you ana

Great service, couldn’t have asked for more

Great service - Erika was awesome!

Service was quick and friendly, music was playing, food was really good.

Fantastic, Anna and all staff are polite and helpful ☺️

Lovely chilled bar, Anthony really helpful, thank you, nice pint of Aspull. Great views of the runway, early rise and still dark

Just came here to wait for our flight and decided on a fry up (breakfast) and a hot chocolate with coconut milk, the breakfast was lovely and fresh (couldn't ask for more). The staff are great, big thanks to Anna for looking after us 😀

Absolutely great service and food was excellent..great start to our holiday 😁

Awesome breakfast, compliments to the head chef. Highly recommended.

At airport ,so prices are higher than usual as you are a captive market, so no moaning you know what to expect! Staff were welcoming and professional, surrounding plesent, well maintained. Enjoyable because you are leaving UK to somewhere sunny 🌞

Hi, we have been delayed for quite a few hours at Manchester airport which is always a bit down hearted and especially as it was my husbands birthday, Thankfully we came across a couple of guys, Kyle & Marley in the bar mcr who made our situation a lot less stressful 😊 they where friendly, compassionate and had a lot of empathy for our situation and kept our spirits high throughout, my husband and myself would like to day a massive Thank you to them both for helping to make our situation better 😊👌 thanks Mary & Dave xx

All food and drink was A1 100% eat there again and the staff was very friendly and so understanding in food requirements

We had two breakfasts and two teas £38.80 but we are going away on holiday so. Breakfast was good sausages good. We were enjoying are breakfast people watching, when a staff member was serving a customer, when customer turned their back to go sit down , the member of staff pulled their tongue at them with a nasty face. Some people just not happy in their jobs, smile cost nothing. You have a job. SMILE.

Great service and a smile from Holly, Nice pint of Guinness with a shamrock ☘️ on the top 🇮🇹 bound so topping up on the Guinness

We selected from a menu that seemed to have lots of fried and fast food but “Crispy Cauliflower Bites” sounded tasty and healthy. The description - “Cauliflower but not as you know it! Served with a spicy vegan Mayo and salad in a pineapple dressing”. What came was battered and deep fried tiny little bits of what was once cauliflower. It was dripping in the oil in which it was fried and the inside was mushy batter. The tiny little bits of cauliflower were gooey. There was absolutely nothing Crispy about any of it. The look, smell and taste was disgusting. Hopefully the photograph that I’ve taken will upload indicating what I couldn’t eat which was 98% of it. It was gross!!!

A quaint but classy bar. A good selection of draught beers on offer also and very friendly staff especially Holly, she can pour a great pint of Guinness.

Great and fast service. Nice pint & great view of the tarmac. Amazing service provided by Holly. Deffo getting another round.

Lovely staff! Tables and bar were really clean and the service was brilliant! Prices were reasonable and fab loaded fries.

Brilliant service, my host Kyle was fantastic! Fantastic service at the bar and the food was great too. Slightly overpriced but what do you expect from an airport venue 🤷🏻‍♀️

Really not great. We are clearly a captive audience with no need to worry about return custom. The bar top was filthy, the bar nan did not smile and 2 glasses of wine with some dry roasted peanuts came to £25.75!! I know it hard...

Anthony and Sara were exellent staff they were kind friendly and chatty and a poured a lovley pint thankyou !

A pint of Stella and a coffee £12.00 a tad expensive. It's a nice place and Anthony was a good bar man.

Great fast service at the bar no waiting in a big queue as you would expect in a airport. Bar man Anthony gave good freindly banter and poured my Guinness to a perfect pint 👌

Anthony was very polite and tended to our needs, he listened and was extremely patient with us, hope to see him on our next visit. Keep up the excellent work!

Sorry, lads and girls, but I’m not a fan. I have dietary needs and my order was VERY rushed, I ended up getting a breakfast that was mediocre at best. So I’m gluten intolerant, and I decided to play it safe and get bacon instead of the sausages cause of the oil they’re fried in. I got charged extra for the bacon. Not cool, in my book. Also, the bread wasn’t replaced with anything. Now, there is gluten free bread available to buy separately (for an exorbitant price) as part of a "GF toast and tea" sort of dish. Now, if your "market breakfast" comes with wheat-based toast, the solution is not to omit it, but to replace it with GF toast, especially seeing as you have it in stock. My breakfast had one hash brown in it. Sorry, simply not worth £15. They get one star for having aspalls cider on draught! 😅 So it was £15 for a breakfast and £7 for the pint. The price of the pint is what it is; but £15 for a breakfast that didn't even come with GF bread... daylight robbery!

Awful cold under cooked food for sky high prices. Avoid the cooked breakfast

Amazing drinks. Service was great!!!!

I regularly use Bar MCR when I fly out of terminal one. The food is always good quality and the staff are really friendly.

Friendly guys and fast service considering how busy it was. Always my place to come when flying out of T1. Great selection of food and drink 👍

Cup of tea was stone cold! I had to go to the counter because they forgot the tea. The brunch was nice! You don't get any toast or bread of any kind with the brunch breakfast

Great service and excellent when I broke a class. Never been disappointed in this bar.

Flew out on Monday and went to get a coffee from the bar and Sandra provided great customer service for me and my partner. What a lovely lady and great for a chat. Gave her a cheeky tip👊 Thank you so much! Give that woman a raise!

Sarà was very helpful and gave great service. Breakfast was nice .would recommend and will return to bar MCR

6 star service. Well looked after by all the staff, especially Anna. Thank you

The service was first class, very busy but staff never stopped. Although only there for drinks it was clear to see the efforts being made by all was a credit to the company, all staff were brilliant, Mick and Gaz

Great experience, great food and drink

Always use bar mcr when travelling from T1. The staff are friendly and food is always good!

Excellent service from Anna, couldn't do enough for our group 5* service thank you 👍

Best latte I have had in a long while and great service by Anna
