Bird Of Prey in Manchester

I visited Bird of Prey yesterday late on a busy bank holiday night, and despite the restaurant being absolutely packed, I was genuinely impressed. The place was buzzing with people, but the staff remained incredibly friendly, welcoming, and patient throughout. Even with the crowd, our food arrived surprisingly quickly and was absolutely delicious .It’s rare to find such great service during peak hours, especially late at night. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Best fried chicken I have ever eaten.

Rudest staff in all of Manchester. The 2 Hijabi girls working there on bank holiday Sunday night have a serious attitude problem. Asked politely for the meal and a bottle of water at another time and one rolled their eyes, while the other just had an appalling tone. I have no idea what their problem is. First and last time I’m visiting here.

This chicken is 🔥. I’ve lived in New Orleans, Savannah and South Carolina and it’s some of the best tenders I’ve had in years. Awesome spot and really nice people working there

Burgers are preety goods very delicious！

Smash burger meal was amazing. Buffalo soldier burger is very nice. Chicken wings was ok.

How can burger and chips take half an hour to make in a fast food restaurant at half 10 on a Tuesday

First visit, based in popular uni area. Staff were minimalist in their approach but not rude. Wait time seems to vary, some were served quicker despite ordering after me. Took around 15/20 mins for a takeout. I must say though that the food was worth the wait, signature wings, cooked perfectly, good chunky wings at that and dressing/sauces were super good. Easily better wings than KFC or Popeye's. Worth a visit

Must've come here at an off time because service was decidedly NOT fast. We actually needed a quick meal so we purposefully chose a quick, counter service place but the whole interaction was bizarre. Got to the counter, reading the giant wall menu to order there but the first employee asked if we were eating in. When we said yes, she handed us giant menus and pointed to a table and said she'd come take our order. Odd but Ok... But then she just never came over and just hung out at the counter and never gave us a second glance. We were also the only people in there. So we finally gave up and went to the counter, she misheard me 3 times, another employee walked in and the first woman just stopped taking our order and walked away, passing us on to the second woman, no discussion, nothing. 2nd woman repeated what we had started to order, it was wrong, got it corrected and then waited. It took a full 20 minutes to get our meal. Two sandwiches and a fry. The food was pretty good but watching the two most apathetic people clearly not want to be working was honestly hilarious, but only because we didn't miss our train waiting for food. Did we come on an off day?!

Nice wings but very slow service and it took the staff nearly 10 minutes to acknowledge I was standing in front of them… don’t bother if you’re in a rush

nice food best chicken Hira was great too

The taste is very good. Hira is very helpful.

I got food poisoning from their wings on Wednesday and then yday my flat mate did too! Long term patron of these guys but how horrific!

Best food great service by Hira

Mariam deserves a raise, she is so friendly wallah.

Recommended place, the burger was very delicious

Food is pretty good. And Mariu service is good!

Great food. The wings and burgers were amazing. Some burgers can be spicy for some people so make sure you ask their friendly staff before ordering. Their sauces are alight honestly - the best one is probably the cheese sauce and the gravy. Our order was taken by Hira who was extremely kind and helpful. Usually at a fast food restaurant you don’t expect good service but Hira was really nice.

Great chicken wings and milkshakes. Called in here after a gig at the O2 Arena. Open till late, though it was takeout only. Wish I ordered more as the wings were tiny. Very nice and the bonus of 2 side sauces was great. Garlic mayo and siracha. Milkshake was cookie & cream.

Best fried chicken burger I've ever had (and I've been around a little bit)

Very nice but fries too over salted

lovely fresh chicken strips, halloumi and burger, crispy fries and a large selection of dips to try, would reccomend and will be back again

It is very good and it’s very juicy and nice you guys should visit it a lot and a lot

Food was overpriced and cold. I got the Nashville burger. It wasn't at all spicy, the burger was really strange. It felt and looked covered in spices but you wouldn't know from the taste. I found it a really strange combination. And the Coca-Cola tastes like it's from Aldi. It's a nice spot in terms of the look of the restaurant, just wish service was faster and food was hot upon receipt.

I recently visited Bird of Prey and overall had a fairly decent experience. The location is convenient and easy to find, which makes it a good spot for a quick meal. I ordered the Damn Hot burger, and I must say the patty was flavourful and well-seasoned—definitely one of the highlights of the visit. The spice level was just right, and the texture of the burger was satisfying. However, I was disappointed with the chicken wings. They were overly greasy, and the combination of flavours—especially with the cheese—tasted a bit odd. It left me wondering if the ingredients were entirely fresh. The wings lacked the crispiness and balance I was expecting, which brought down the overall experience. I really hope the quality of the wings can be improved in the future, as the concept and other items on the menu show promise. If that issue is addressed, I’d be happy to return.

Been here all year. Awesome food and service

The food is that amazing here that this is the third time have eaten there this week! It’s scrumptious and mouth watering !! The chicken burgers are the best chicken burgers we have ever had! And the wings are also mind blowing. If you’re looking for a great chicken spot to eat at then I strongly recommend BIRDS OF PREY!!!!!

Young lady serving was extremely rude and had no desire to be there whatsoever. The worst service I’ve had before

Customer service are so bad, especially the women there that took order. No please or thank you at all, receipt and change was throw on table and not given to the customer at hand. At least say a thank you or a smile on the face if you’re going to work in hospitality, this really upsets customers. They give a very unwelcoming vibe! The door is super heavy and hard to open as well :(

Mairia gave some good service. She was kind aswell. And the food was great too.

Marie has very good service and is very social which improved my experience and also the food is lovely thx to the cheef

Loved the budfalo soldier and butter chicken burgers with chicken strips! 27 pound deal with meals 😋

Maria, always gives us wonderful service Came by 5+ times Quality everytime 👌👌👌

Best food best service by Maria

Ordered wings from here and every single one was…wet? It was like they’d been fried for 10 total seconds. Yet, miraculously the meat itself was cooked. Out of 15 wings, 3 were crispy. Would not recommend

Great service, delicious food, £14 for a meal. I recommend it. They have a wide range of items available, wraps, tenders, fried chicken, burgers, sides... For spicy lovers, they have a spicy sauce they add to some of their burgers which hits the right spot. Follow me for more honest reviews, honesty is the best policy.

We came in late on a Saturday looking for a good meal after having been out in Manchester all day. The staff were very friendly and talked us through their menu and best sellers. We opted for a few different things to share as we hadn’t been to BOP before. The food came out promptly, and everything was super hot and fresh and tasted great. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals and would return! The only downside was that despite it being very quiet, the dining area was quite dirty, and the toilets needed cleaning urgently too.

severe food poisoning, raw chicken

I always make sure I visit BoP when I visit Manchester. Food is fresh unique and tasty as hell. Service is great and the girls there are friendly and welcoming. Love it here - Recommended it to a team of footballers from America here yesterday and they all loved it. See you in a couple of weeks again Bird of Prey..

A great meal at a very affordable price! The chicken strips and fries were tasty, but the cheese sauce really made them even better. My friends ordered burgers and wings, and they enjoyed them as well—great food all around!

Overcasted and very poor value at £6.95 for 6 halloumi fries. That’s £1.15 per fry. The chicken burger appeared good value at ~£10, but it arrived cold and a poor cut of chicken, lots of gristle and fat. No atmosphere at all. Drinks were flat. However an interesting menu with some good looking stuff on there so I can’t lie, I am tempted to try again. The lady who took my order was very helpful too.

Popped in for a late lunch on a Sunday, so was very quiet. Chicken burger was solid, fried chicken still moist & tender; ditto for the chicken tenders. Good fries but they come ready-salted and to my taste over-salted. Will be back to try some of the more varied options.

Bird of prey quickly becomes my favourite spot of having burgers and fried chickens after my first trial. The chicken wings are so crispy and extremely juicy. Insanity sauce is fresh and unbelievable tasty. If you are the hot lover, must try.

Best food in Manchester great and friendly staff Hira

Nice burgers lovely space for sitting 5 star.

Very good service and nice food, I enjoyed my smashed beef so much, I will definitely back one day.. Thanks

Great food, reasonably priced for the city centre. The la cuca racha was filling and fresh, chips were nice. Defo recommend

The best halal wings that you could ever have in Manchester! Hira 👌🏼

Dined in recently. Menu doesn't make clear what can be upgraded to a meal or not. Asked for the strips to be upgraded to a meal as it showed on the giant menu, server said they couldn't be upgraded to a meal and in confusion asked why not as it was there clear as day, server just laughed at you... weird. Prices for some items were actually cheaper than the board. Just a confusing experience when trying to order. Between us had 2 burgers and some strips. Chicken was really dry. Seems they over season on the burgers with Kimchi on the Korean burger too sour, more than it should be and BBQ sauce concentrated too much. PFK burger was a sloppy mess with far too much black garlic hollandaise. Fries ironically could have had more seasoning. Best thing about the meal was the milkshakes. Overall a disappointing experience with the service, menu and food. A shame as it's just around the corner from Oxford Road station.

The food here was really good especially the biscoff milkshake and customer service wise, Hira was absolutely amazing and so kind.

We LOVE the chicken here - especially when they run 50% off offers! Bargain but good value for a sharing platter available anytime.

Food and services are excellent.

Wanted to give 10/10 stars for this place. Best loaded fries ever! Recommend BoP fries and try all the sauce they’ve got!! Miss this place and cant wait to go back!!

I arrived 10 mins before closing and the staff were still really lovely, patient and friendly, and happy to take my order. The food was cooked to order in 15 mins and tasted fantastic! I had Korean wings and my friend had a chicken burger and we shared fries. Everything was cooked perfectly, full of flavour, reasonable prices and really generous portions. Also packed in (non-leaking) paper packaging - not plastic. Totally recommend this little gem of a place!

My husband and I had chicken breast strips, turkey bacon burger , chicken breast, fries, dips and wings all great nice and hot and tasty. The dips tasted home-made. The staff could not be more helpful nice relaxed atmosphere.

Friendly & polite staff, amazing food. Will return!

Amazing food burgers and the best salad ever had .Milk shake are to die for thick and creamy and very tasteful the best shake ever had . Thank you will deffo be back newt time down that way.

Best fried chicken in town I love it 🙂

Maryam and Afnan are very friendly and the food is immaculate, I recommended Messy chick. Great vibes and service all round!

The staff are very polite and helpful, especially , Ali, he helped me through the order when I was so confused, made the experience ten times better due to how nice he was.

food is amazing best service by Hira

very good food, i think you have to pay for sauces since we werent offered but the chips are so crispy you dont need it

Yummy burguers,very recommended. I ordered the double smash ❤️

The food had good portions and flavors, I would return again.

The team at BoP did a great job, the food was quality and great portion sizes are good. The service can be a bit slow but that’s also because everything is made fresh so it’s something I’m happy to wait for. Mariah was front of house and she was brilliant at engaging with customers and ensuring the shop was clean and ready for customers.

I always enjoy my meals here. Cool vibe and child friendly. The staff are amazing and accommodating. Especially Maria. She was very pleasant in attending to us.

Ms.Maryem has the best service.

Amazing burgers. Friendly service. Korean bbq wings are a must have every time.

I wish to express my appreciation for the exceptional sandwich I recently enjoyed at your restaurant. It was, without a doubt, the finest I have encountered during my time in the UK. Furthermore, I commend the professionalism and attentiveness of your staff. They consistently treat customers with respect and demonstrate a genuine commitment to ensuring a positive dining experience. Thank you!

Best place for burgers and wings. I have been here multiple times. Mariam is my favorite host there. A must visit place.

I tried chicken burger it's amazing I will come again

We were going to Yes to watch a gig but they weren’t serving pizza at the time, so we nipped over the road to try this place. A great find, funky, independent place. Great service and the burgers were immense. Nice, relaxed atmosphere.

Amazing food amazing staff. Maria was excellent highly recommended 5/5 👌

The food was delicious and didn’t take too long to come. The food is worth the price and there’s a nice variety of food to choose from.

Absolutely delicious chicken wings.

I really enjoyed the Fried Chicken burger here. The Bird Of prey chicken burger flavour ful, the Fries cook perfectly the staff behaviour was vey friendly highly recommended come back soon

Had a fantastic meal here! The Fried Chicken Burger was mouthwatering, and the Bird of Prey burger had such bold, savory flavors. The fries were cooked to perfection – crispy on the outside and soft inside. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Can't wait to return!✨

Absolutely loved my takeaway from Bird of Prey! The Bird of Prey burger was packed with bold flavors, and the Fried Chicken Burger was so juicy. The fries were on point—Crispy and Golden. Highly recommend 💯

Excellent service and fantastic food, it’s recommended

Best food great customer service by Hira , friendly staff

Here’s a positive review in English: I had the pleasure of enjoying one of the best chicken burgers I’ve ever tasted! The chicken was perfectly cooked—juicy on the inside with a crispy golden crust on the outside. The combination of fresh toppings, flavorful sauces, and a soft bun made every bite absolutely delicious. The service was outstanding as well. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the visit. They really made me feel welcome. If you’re looking for a place with amazing food and excellent service, this is definitely the spot to try. I can’t wait to come back!

Worth a visit but the chicken burger was disappointing. Has the birds of prey burger which was good but nothing special. The smash burger was great, but can't go wrong here. The chicken tenders and the blue cheese were the highlight.

The staff were rude and orders took forever. The food wasn't good and not worth the wait. Definitely won't come back.

Food was very overcooked and mid, service is just horrible and not good.

The food was very underwhelming. The burger tasted fishy for some reason. The service oh my days, I thought it was an unfiltered Karen’s diner. Horrible service. Staff was so rude. Never coming back here again.

Food took incredibly long to be served and was incredibly mid for the amount of time that it took.

Delicious chicken wings. Good choice, we had the crispy ones which came with 2 dips, the Cheese sauce dip was scrummy. We also had Korean BBQ which were gorgeous.

Really good quality food, efficient service and good value. £10 lunch deal is a nice treat

Great location near Oxford Street with plenty of seating in a quiet setting. The Smashburger was decent, the fries a bit dry, and the lemonades average. However, the Loaded Fries with Chicken were excellent and the highlight of the meal. Overall, a solid choice—4/5 stars.
