Suuuuper rude staff and another bad coffee :( Below is my original review from a few years ago. Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere, let down by 2 bad coffees, would give it another go as even the best places serve a bad coffee occasionally but both the flat white and cappuccino were just coffee and flat hot milk which is a shame. I didn't eat but the menu looked good and well priced as well.

This is a great venue! We had a private party upstairs at Fuel for about 40 people. They provided a selection of their lovely food to nibble on and we brought a cake and a playlist! The staff were so helpful and flexible. And the room has a lovely open atmosphere for people to sit or stand.

I live in an apartment next door, I have a young son who studies and therefore needs to wake up at 7am. I ask that when there is live music that the windows on the first floor are closed, the noise from the music is greatly reduced. Thanks The star is really for the noise for those who have to live next door. I have nothing against the establishment, just that it understands the noise disturbance so that you have to live next door.

I'm only giving them a 5* because generally it's great. However I am very displeased with being consistently mislead by the staff to believe that the Great 'Willem Dafoe' had a hand in establishing the venue. Of course I thought this was a joke at first, but none of the staff would budge. I put in the research. Far too long I searched but alas. Nothing. I've even gone as far to message Willems booking agent so I can have a word about the matter. Response indefinitely pending. I want proof, I demand proof. You don't lie or jest when it concerns the great Willem. He is my Jesus, he is my green goblin.

Fantastic value for money for the food! I got the chilli burrito meal and my sibling got the halloumi meal. I was starving before hand and entirely satiated afterwards. The burrito was delicious, not too rice-y, it only had a moderate amount of spice which made it more enjoyable for me. The guacamole was delicious and very high quality and fresh. We originally considered trying the desert (splitting it as it was almost £5 for the waffle desert), but it would have been a while til we were hungry again! My meal was £8.20 which I think is fantastic for a meal. I'm used to being dragged somewhere where I end up paying £14 for a vegan burger that I demolish in 2 minutes so it's nice to have something I can really enjoy and for a enjoyable price too! There was a dog there with a guest (just a warning to anyone with allergies) but it was not disruptive at all. The toilets were fine but looked like bar toilets with the various stickers and wording, so don't take your traditional relatives here maybe!

Had the vegan fuel burger. Wedges that came with it were lovely. Burger was ok. Value was very good. Staff member serving me just seemed pissed off that I was there. Didn't say hi. Literally didn't say anything just stared at me. I asked if he was ok and he just glared. I ordered and he said nothing other than handing me the card machine and saying the amount. He then got annoyed when I asked for a spoon to stir the sugar into my coffee. "do you need it now" "did I not give you one". Just rude and unpleasant. Put me off going back.

Popped in for a quick caffeine fix and a bite to eat around lunchtime. Decided not to eat anything as most of the menu appeared to be catered to the vegan and veggie kind…make of that what you will. That said I had a coffee and my companion decided to get an iced coffee which WASN’T on the menu. My coffee was priced amply at £2.90 however the iced coffee cost a great big, mortgage-level, overdraft-causing, greater than the GDP of Greece £7.10. £7.10 for an iced coffee?! You’d have expected them to have hand-milked the cow themselves for that sort of money. Cheeky cheeky cheeky but if it makes them feel better about themselves then alls well that ends well.

Fuel Bar Cafe in Withington: Where the coffee is so strong, even the Wi-Fi needs a break to catch its breath! I ordered an espresso, and now my watch is ticking in double-time. The baristas must have a black belt in caffeine martial arts. Just be prepared to leave with a jittery smile and a sudden urge to organize your sock drawer. Five stars for turning sleepy afternoons into caffeinated adventures! You might need a GPS to find your chill afterward, but who needs calm when you can conquer the day at 100 mph on a coffee high?

Great portions, very cheap - veggie menu with everything seemingly home made. Would recommend the quesidilla and pakoras on the small plates section - but these defo are not small plates - they are basically like main meals! Personally wouldnt recommend the breakfast as it was a little bland compared to all the other interesting options on the menu and specials. I always leave here full and satisfied. Great drinks selection if you are after beers and spirits - again good prices. There is usually something happening here, gigs, music which can be quite loud when the upstairs door is open but this is fitting to the vibe, welcoming with nice music in the background and relaxed staff - this place is never empty!

The smoothies are also delicious and even though I’m pretty sure I’m lactose intolerant I sometimes can’t resist their chocolate mud shake. It is also always a lovely night when it doubles as a venue… recently attended the electro night Fluff which again had the loveliest friendliest and safest atmosphere, as well as showcasing some really great performers.

Placed an online order with gift messages for 6 recipients and only one of them processed correctly meaning most of my gift messages were missing a line. Called for help and it's a premium service number so cost me over five pounds and had to call 3 times as despite being promised a call back i didn't receive one. Got an email the following day saying sorry nothing they could do. Will now purchase gifts elsewhere as cannot rely on Ambala.
