Folk & Soul in Manchester

Estaba en Manchester por negocios y pensé en probar este lugar ya que había oído hablar de amigos que viven en la ciudad. El exterior del restaurante es muy bonito y fresco, con una pintura verde y flores pintadas, no te lo puedes perder. El menú está lleno de cosas deliciosas para elegir • Éramos tres y pedimos un montón de cosas. . . El plato mezze, los batidos de cerveza, los nachos -! El sabor y la presentación fueron excelentes. Los precios son razonables y el servicio fue amable y cortés. La decoración es sencilla con unas lindas mesas de madera. Una visita obligada para un almuerzo saludable?

Went with a non-vegan friend, we had the gyōza, soup and Crab-less cakes to start and a lasagne and mushroom & Kale gnocchi as main.. Everything was delicious. Great service.

La comida era sabrosa, llegó rápido y agradable personal. Grandes vibraciones a su alrededor volvería de nuevo bonito y pequeño lugar!

Ambiente agradable de la ciudad, buena selección de bebidas veganas, pero no un lugar para cenar. Solo ve por los entrantes. Los platos principales son sosos y caros

So, we wanted drinks n cakes and this place looked good and we hadn't been before. Sort of odd first experience staff seemed a little "cold" because we moved to a bigger table perhaps.. You all know the feel/look nodody is ride or off your just left a little longer and things seem a little bit more of a bother...............? You know........? Anyway after we got over that the cakes were Oh My Delicious, so tasty and drinks ok, other than the black Americano that I poured some milk into went some crazy look like the milk had gone off but it hadn't so maybe the milk and the coffee didn't agree with each other, to be fair it tasted fine just looked really odd!

Never encountered such rude people and bad service. Food was nearly as vile as the manner of the staff. DO NOT GO HERE!

Used the dealer app to get the 25% off food deal. Very worthwhile. Delicious butternut squash linguine.

Called in for breakfast. Had the full fare and wild mushrooms along with breakfast cocktail. All vegan. Food & drinks great, nice staff, nice atmosphere. Recommended.

Very tasty vegan/ vegetarian food. I had sourdough with cashew nut cheese broccoli and peas which was just delicious. We are not vegetarian but we’re entertaining a vegetarian visitor but we thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

This is my favourite restaurant in town. Lovely atmosphere, food is amazing and presented SO pretty, prices are good and fair, and staff are SO nice!

We love the idea of a dedicated veggie restaurant but the food just wasn’t up to scratch. I took 2 meat eaters and myself and my partner went, they all said how nice the soup was but the mains were terrible. The pasta was just a bland tomato pasta, the side salad was the whitest bit of the lettuce, the noodles were like packet noodles from b and m. It wasn’t good but staff were very nice and knocked 2 meals off. Shame as the atmosphere is good and it’s not very expensive.

Ordered 2 teas and an orange juice, for £3.50 per tea I expected a tea pot, when it arrived it was a glass within a glass that was certainly less than a cup, I asked for soya milk, when it arrived it was hot and frothy, not what I’d asked for, I don’t know about anyone else but I have never had hot milk in a cup of tea before?! I promptly sent it back and asked for cold milk. On another note I watched the girl put the orange juice on the tray but she held it by the rim of the glass, not very hygienic. Extremely overpriced for mediocre service and small portions, will not be returning or recommending

Me and my friends fell across Folk & Soul when looking for somewhere suitable to eat as half of us are vegan/vegetarian and the rest often prefer vegetarian options. We all chose the nachos and I cannot begin to explain how divine they were, we will be paying another visit (hopefully sooner rather than later!)

Called in for a drink tonight - great, friendly host called Matt. He chatted to us & made us feel very welcome in a non-cheesy, Manchester way. Nice find for us! Cool & warm vibe & there's a lot taking off - comedy, singing & music nights & we are so looking forward to returning - maybe to blast out a Joni Mitchell number (erm, not me, my friend, Michelle) & eat some delicious looking food.

Damn, I really want to give this place top marks but alas I can't! The food despite being delicous and beautifully presented took ages to come out and arrived cold despite us being the first ones to arrive for brunch. The waitress compensated for this by offering us free drinks and the atmosphere in the place was lovely, gorgeous decor and music. Will definitely try this place again on our next visit to Manchester, and I really hope the food and timing improves.

With my partner being vegan it can sometimes be difficult for us to findpaces to eat. Folk and soul is plant based cuisine meaning everything on the menu is vegan They serve several dishes (similar to tapas, so between 2 people you need around 4-5...

My husband and I stumbled across this vegan delight on a city break for my husbands birthday. We had a 'morning after the night before' brunch and an excellent bloody mary. I can safely say it was the best of each we have ever had....

Finally got to visit this place and it didn’t disappoint! Great vibe, good prices and the food is delicious! Just what NQ needs!

Visited last week for the first time for a friends birthday, had booked online and they confirmed quickly. Arrived and the waitress was friendly and the table was ready. Waited 15 mins to order drinks so ordered food at the same time. It took 45...

Vegan Food at Folk and Soul was lovely as my husband is usually carnivorous The atmosphere is great with lots of plants /flowers I loved the mushrooms with mash potato One dis advantage is the incessant slamming of the door to the kitchen and ladies...

Ok we just had a coffee but vegan menu and atmosphere tempting to return for lunch. Nice design, great photos on the wall. Retro urban build. Welcoming. Good loos. Good prices.

Had seen this place on my last visit to manchester and wanted to go in and try it. Luckily there was a great acoustic duo playing . Really nice and relaxing. Kitchen was closed but the menu is small vegetarian/ vegan and looked good. Nice...

For a vegan place the menu actually is very small. There are about 7 mains then a few extra side plates. This is ok if the mains are something to wow about but nothing out of this world and not fully substantial meals e.g. nachos,...

Went for a meal for two but ended up ordering 3 dishes to share! The service was brilliant, food delicious and atmosphere so nice and chilled. Jazz duo playing on Tuesdays. Couldn’t recommend more.

Tasty food, friendly staff and lovely venue. Prices are in line with portion size and the food is good quality. The restaurant is comfortable and well decorated. I would come back here to try the other menu options.

Stopped off for drinks before our restaurant reservation, celebrating our daughters birthday. This was a great call. The bloody Mary’s were amazing. The staff were warm, and friendly. There was a jazz duo playing, and were so good. It was sad to leave, however, we...

I loved the food !!! So tasty. I had the cauliflower and peach salad, my partner had artichoke risotto. Both really delicious and a good size portion. Friendly staff and a lovely evening. Thank you folk and soul.

Fab place with great selection of vegan food, lots of options and great prices. The platter was fab. The new restaurant has opened upstairs which was lovely. Open kitchen with great chef and friendly staff, would highly recommend even if not vegan. I went with...

This was the third time I had eaten at Folk and Soul and I’ve enjoyed every meal. I was eating alone on this occasion and felt very comfortable. There is a relaxed feel to the place and the staff are lovely too. I had the...

When we walked in the waitress was apologising to 3 different tables apologising for their wait on the food saying there is a new chef. I asked for lemon and ginger in water for my cold they had no ginger ok can I have a...

I was really looking forward to visiting Folk & Soul as I had heard good reviews of it when it first opened. However, the menu on their website is not what is on offer when you go into the restaurant. I was shocked to see...

Went today to find a different and vastly reduced menu - not what we were expecting nor what is on their website. The prices have gone up too. We went for a special birthday lunch and were very disappointed. Really basic menu and some of...

Last Sunday myself, partner and twin sister decided to pop in to Folk and Soul to see what the menu was like (as this somewhat new Manchester eatery looked inviting from the street). My twin sister is vegan and we were amazed to see that...

I visited this restaurant on my own and had a lovely relaxing lunch. The menu was exactly the kind of food I like. Folk & Soul was recommended by one of the nearby shops and I was very pleased with the recommendation. The staff were...

We enjoyed the food and drinks here. Had a bank holiday brunch with the pie and the mezzo board. Teresa our waitress was very nice. The decor is fresh and it was popular. Upstairs also has a good selection of seats for when it's really...

Came here with my mother for a birthday lunch. The staff were friendly and love the decor. Seemed to be a bit of confusion about what time the lunch menu started but fine once sorted out. We shared the summer green risotto, chips and the...

Was recommended by a friend. But was fairly disappointed. Went solo. Was hungry and thought id give it a try. Went in and didnt receive warm welcome. Couldnt decide what i wanted to eat. Asked waitress about the mezze board what this included. She gave...

My kids brought me here for my birthday tea and I was thrilled with it. We were a party of 7 so we chose most items on the menu and shared everything. My favourites were the cauliflower bites and the chilli tacos but nothing was...

Their avocado on toast with chimichurri sauce is well worth trying, especially with a side of hash browns.

I really enjoyed my visit today! Love when vegan doesn’t have to mean boring! Me and my partner shared the pie of the week and the cauliflower popcorn (heavenly)! Will go again for sure

Walked in by “accident” and didn’t know it was a vegan restaurant! Only had a coffee but it was amazing, you could tell it was good quality. I can’t wait to try the food. I was lucky enough to meet the owners too and they...

We ordered the full vegan breakfast, the pancakes and the French toast. Very good, good prices and nice staff too. The orange juice is fresh squeezed which is a nice touch.

I was visiting my friend in Manchester and she took me here. So glad she did, it was delicious and so nice to go somewhere and be able to order anything of the menu after spending most of my life with just a few veggie...

We stumbled across this place by chance during our short stay in Manchester - and then were delighted to discover it's vegan! We stopped for a coffee and then returned the next morning for breakfast. Wow, truly the best vegan breakfast I have had -...

Pint £4-50, half pint £3. Rip off Britain. Not quite sure why they need to penalise you for only popping in for a half. Otherwise nice place.

Lovely vegan cafe in the Northern Quarter. Called in for breakfast and coffee both were excellent. Kind, helpful,happy staff and gorgeous decor. Took our dog with us as they are dog friendly which is always a bonus. Will definitely go back.

Absolutely delicious food in a cosy and beautiful atmosphere. An amazing range of vegan food cooked with so much flavour, I will definitely be returning.

A friend and I went for lunch as we’d heard only positive things about the venue and we were not disappointed. The staff were exceptionally friendly and knowledgable about the menu, which was varied and very appealing. We had sharing options for both starter and...

I came here on a Saturday night so was a bit dubious whether we would have to wait due to not booking but we got seated straight away. We were unsure on the size of the food so asked the waitress who was really helpful...

My daughter and I sat at one of the pavement tables on a hot June evening and coincidentally old friends who have moved to New Zealand happened to pass by. Whilst we caught up on news our food became cold but our waitress and the...

Only my 3rd time in Manchester and I was only going to be there for 6 hours visiting a friend. We saw this place and thought it looked really nice. Sat down and went up to ask for food menus. As none came we asked...

Meal for two. Fantastic fresh food, brilliant choice of drinks, Whilst it's a vegan establishment, you don't need to be vegan to enjoy it. We weren't.

Absolutely made up to have found this place!!!! Lovely staff and top draw vegan food !! The cauliflower popcorn with dipping gravy was sublime ! As was the tempura vegetables,don’t pass this one by ! And absolutely amazing coffee! See you soon.

Lively casual Northern Quarter bar offering a variety of small mezze/tapas sized plates of plant-based food. Not a large menu. Food took a while to arrive though was worth the wait. Tasty without trying to imitate meat with the emphasis on fresh vegetables. The kitchen...

Visited Folk and Soul last night and can’t recommend it enough, food was delicious and staff couldn’t do enough for us! Great music too....Will definitely be back!

Tried Funk & Soul for the first time today and it did not disappoint. We were greeted with a massive smile and a friendly welcome when we arrived and we were given excellent service throughout. The food is all vegan and it’s delicious. The nachos...
