Honi Poke - Hawaiian Poke Bowl Restaurant in Manchester

No toilet for customers is not nice.

I don't know if it's bc it's a Friday night and you guys are to busy but my poke came with a very messy presentation, literally 3 cubes of mango, a lot of rice compared to the others topings, and it's nothing like in the picture (in my case I'm writing the review in time I got the food). Apart from that, the food is tasty.

Just wanted to share my recent experiences at Honi Poke. The seating area is often dirty with people not cleaning up after themselves and staff leaving it that way. In addition, the staff are related friendly however, there is a gentlemen tallish, bold, who isn’t very friendly. Not to mention that the food is slap bang average, better off going to Pret if you can.

Food was cold and tampura was soggy due to it been cold

loved finding a place in mcr for poke bowls!! nice options and you can build your own bowl. had the chicken katsu bowl and the rice, chicken and sauce were gorgeous - the slaw that came with it wasn't amazing though, and very very dry. Will try another dish next time!!

I got some things I didn't order (an extra juice and cakes) but none of the cooked food is ordered. The bag says 1 of 2 but the delivery rider only had the one bag, so we're now left hungry.

Saadia & Dan made me my bowls super quick and the food was nice & fresh - great service & friendly chat 🙏🏽

Daniel and Saadia are lovely and made me feel very welcome. My food was made quickly and looked great, and tasted incredible. Will definitely return next time I'm in town, especially if they are working.

Visited around 3pm on Friday 9th August 2024. Member of staff was super friendly and helpful explaining the concept. Opted for build your own. Thoroughly enjoyed half rice half slaw option. Feels much lighter for a hot day. Excellent value for money. Delicious food. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Came into this place, looks very clean always and the service is perfect, especially from a member of staff called ‘Daniel’, their food is amazing and i feel welcome, 100% will come again!

Amazing service and such lovely staff. Jackfruit bowl with chilli sauce is my fav!

I love honi Poke !!!!!! The staff are the most friendliest and chilled people ever, the food is so great and such good value ! Would 11/10 recommend xxx

Food is sooo good but quite expensive

very good bowls with a lot of meat (I would have preferred more veggies but that’s a personal preference) and good service. I just wish they had reusable plates for when dining in, hence only 4 stars.

The food is light and healthy 👍🏻

I love Honk Poke but the food at this location was a bit lacklustre. It wasn’t as flavourful as usual and they didn’t have quite a few ingredients that really made my usually dish fall short. The staff were really nice, polite and helpful but it was lacking atmosphere as it was very empty and no music was being played.

Food portions shocking & the food we received was cold. Won’t be ordering again.

Fast, efficient, super flavourful.

I come here every week! The bbq jackfruit bowl is super fresh and tasty 😋

Was pretty good, found it a bit strange that everything was disposable though even when you're eating in

Great food, great people (Daniel and Sai especially :) )

Nice fresh food, feels like guilt free dining with the nice healthy options. Hard to get these days without being disappointing. Recommend the Embargo app for added discounts.

A bit cold and nothing to eat it with

To the girl serving us at 3pm Saturday, great service.Originally went for Avo/Mango, but wanted Salmon. Recommended Sriracha Mayo Poke, was delicious! And resolving the bubble tea problem quickly. Will be back.

Ten out of ten amazing food and choices!

pretty good food a bit expensive tho

Dear Honi Poke Management, I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with my recent visit to your Manchester location at 1 St Ann St, on April 18, 2024, at approximately 13:35. Upon arrival, I encountered a disorganized and disrespectful environment. Despite being the next in line, I was rudely shouted at by one of your staff members, who insisted I was not in the queue. This behavior not only embarrassed me but also reflected poorly on your establishment. Furthermore, the lack of basic customer service etiquette displayed by your staff member is unacceptable. Allow me to provide further detail regarding the queue situation. Upon entering, I observed one long-haired staff member behind the till and another short-haired staff member behind the fridge. A gentleman with a carry bag was at the till, waiting to pay, while another lady stood away from the till, observing the short-haired staff member prepare her bowl. When the gentleman left the till, the long-haired staff member proceeded to take my order. However, the short-haired staff member abruptly shouted at me, claiming I was not in the queue, despite two individuals standing behind me who arrived after I did. Even after the gentleman behind me confirmed my position, the short-haired staff member dismissively insisted she "couldn't see it," exacerbating the situation. Furthermore, I am deeply disappointed by the decline in food quality. While I previously enjoyed ordering from your establishment via Uber Eats, my recent in-person experience was subpar. The taro boba milk I ordered was not only chemically flavored, but the portion size had significantly decreased compared to previous orders. I have attached photos for your reference, highlighting the stark differences in quality and quantity. It is evident that there are significant shortcomings in both the training of your staff and the consistency of your food preparation. As a long-time resident of the UK and a frequent patron of various establishments, I expect a higher standard of service and product quality. I urge you to address these issues promptly and implement measures to improve both the training of your staff and the quality control of your food. Failure to do so may result in the loss of loyal customers like myself. Sincerely, Ms. Fung

The food is great, that's all I have to say, chicken katsu curry is good and not like some stores where they sell chicken katsu curry and the curry they use os Indian

Food is amazing, but it's the staff that makes the shop go that extra mile. Monica is an absolute babe. Can make anyone smile

Wow tastes amazing so fresh and lovely way to have a rainbow of veg for lunch as a treat... Plus got a discount today by ordering on the app

Fresh and well presented, plenty of options and fast service. Very clean and relaxing dining experience - refreshing compared to London eateries

Came here to Saturday brunch and got Piotr served. His service is excellent. Food is amazing. High recommend.

Super cool place in Manchester and wonderful food!!!

I absolutely love these poke bowls. They are the best in town. I have tried quite a lot of them but I find Honi Poke to be the most authentic and flaversome. This is such a healthy good, can't recommend enough. The staff is amazing, the girls are so attentive. The place is always spotless.

Came in this evening, was served by two delightful ladies. They were nice and very attentive. Will have to be back soon!

Fresh and tasty poke bowl. Cater for gluten free & friendly service. Will definitely return !

I’m a regular costumer and I start by saying that Monika and all of the stuff are just fantastic. They always give me the best welcome and service ever always putting a smile on my face. The food as well is always fresh and tasty. Definitely a must try !!

Delicious food and all the staff are always so welcoming and happy!

Love this place, great service all the time!

Great Poke bowl. Very Fresh and Monika is fantastic, always smiling and polite, she makes the place.

We ordered our own bowl with salmon tuna and prawn with veggies coleslaw. It arrived without any prawns and Cole slaw and tasted very bland. Disappointed

Hmm not exactly sure how to rate this place. At first was pleasantly surprised when I saw they threw in other ingredients for free but the bowl was unbelievably spicy even though I hadn’t opted for it to be. Made it slightly unbearable 😅

Tried a salmon honi poke bowl, a katsu curry chicken and a teriyaki chicken. The teriyaki was great. The katsu curry was good too - although I expected a bit more chicken. The poke bowl was not that great, I did not feel the little salmon cubes were that good. At least it was not expensive given the location, around 11 quid a plate.

Overpriced only a tiny portion asked if eating in and charged more! Despite the place being empty! Won't waste money again!

As we were on a self-made food tour, my friend and I shared a bowl. There were plenty of ingredients/toppings to choose from, and it’s presented very prettily, but it’s simply not good enough value for money. By the time the exciting fruit, veg, fish etc has been eaten, what’s left is a bowl ¾ full of rice. They rather sneakily charge you a fair bit more to eat inside, too.

I ordered the Avocado & Mango Bowl. Paid for extra mango, crab salad and BBQ jackfruit. They sent me a small portion of rice, adamame and crab, less than half the bowl. No mango, avocado or jackfruit. It was an end of the night order, so they just threw whatever and sent it in a messy presentation. I didn't eat it cause I wouldn't trust them with food after that terrible service.

Really lovely and healthy! Worth the money

Fresh poke bowls made to order. I had the Honi poki bowl with salmon and mango, I liked the balance of textures and flavours! I liked the option of Japanese rice or brown rice. Great quick stop, casual place for lunch!

Ever since I tried a poke, always hoping to find somewhere good. Love this place, I chose honi poke but added seaweed, because I love seaweed, if the add ons weren’t so pricey I would have usually got the crab salad too. It was really refreshing and would definitely order it again! I would recommend the salmon over the tuna. I would definitely recommend the salmon over tuna.

Ordené el jueves por la noche, la comida es muy rica, las porciones son bastante generosas y el servicio es excelente, mi orden estuvo lista antes de lo esperado. 10/10 👌

I just made and order off Uber eats and it’s has no option for me to tell you how great your food really is I’ve been a chef for 12 years and I can honestly say it’s some of the freshest tasting light and healthy food I’ve tasted in a long time flavour combinations are amazing i basically just have everything i can fit in a bowl. Just wanted to say. Thanks

Really tasty poke, clean and nice. Girls who work there are very friendly, one of them brought me a free cup of tea when I had caught, just because she was kind and attentive. I would recommend this place.

Best poke in Manchester - generous portion sizes, fresh ingredients, and lots of choice!

The salmon Honi Poke bowl was one of the best poke bowls I’ve eaten. Great portion size and they allow you to have half and half sushi, brown rices and veggies as your base too.

Loved the katsu chicken here, the cashier even gave me extra chicken when I liked it for free, definitely visiting again

Nice place to grab a quick lunch. Simple enough menu and a choice of Poke bowls to eat in or takeaway

My only complaint: cucumber is a bit over-pickled and overwhelming sour! Overall a great place for fresh, high quality healthy lunch, friendly service too.

The food was so gooood! The fruit and fish tasted fresh! Worth the money! I will definitely coming back! 🙌🏿

This is delicious fast food. Apx £10 a bowl and filling. Perfect for lunch.

I love poke and was pleased to see another poke cafe opening in the city. The staff were friendly and asked what I wanted and didn't want in my bowl. I tried the namesake Honi Poke, and it was tasty with just a hint of spiciness (even with the chili's - your chili tolerance may vary) My only gripe is the price at £10.95, but to be fair the other options were under a tenner so may be just because it's the namesake poke bowl. Would come again

I had the teriyaki chicken bowl here and it was not bad. I’m not a huge fan if Poke Bowls but this place looked pretty nice so decided to try it out. Service was good, staff are friendly here and the environment is nice and casual, not overly crowded. I think next time I will try a different bowl as the teriyaki sauce wasn’t to my liking. I do like the way they have all the nutritional and calorie information for every topping near the counter, which is useful personally as I like to know that. Price is the same as most other similar places.

Nice drink options. I tried mango fruit tea, and it was superb.

My kids loved the milkshake boba

Always come here and came today and the lady didn’t seem to know what she was doing. I asked for extra tuna with my honi poke which is salmon, she charged me but didn’t give me the tuna :( minimal on the salmon side too

I had the best experience here! Food AMAZING. Staff AMAZING! I felt extremely welcomed. Sat in aa cool little sun spot by the window to enjoy your bowl and do a bit of people watching. Blissful eating 10/10

The food is delicious, the service was good and fast!

Popped in for a work lunch, very relaxing environment. Simple food but fresh and tasty. The best part is the price, if you keen on to have some fresh made food but doesn’t want to spend fortune this is the place!

Cibo buono, poca scelta di verdure. Personale molto cortese

Working my way through the menu, so far I have not found anything I don't like, have loved every bowl, my new go to place when working in the office. Everything is fresh and all put together in front of you,

I had the falafel bowl to go as I didn't want to pay extra to dine in. I added an extra sauce, wasabi mayo to give it an extra kick. I ordered it with sushi rice. I could barely taste that the cucumber was pickled. I've never had this combination of food before but it was very nice especially the pineapple which was very fresh and the broccoli which wasn't crunchy. The wasabi mayo is hot and only a little is needed and the portions were big. I would say it was on the pricey side for a vegetarian dish. Would definitely try the chicken options if they are halal. The dining area is clean and spacious and they were well staffed to deal with the lunchtime crowd in the area.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, wir waren heute zu viert in der Stadt unterwegs und probierten diesen Poke Store. Es war gut voll, dennoch ging die Zubereitung relativ schnell von statten. Es wurde eine Pappbox mit frischen Lebensmitteln gefüllt, ein Deckel drauf und ab ging es damit in die Stadt. Der Verzehr vor Ort brachte einen Aufschlag von 2 Pfund, was bei 4 Essen den Preis eines 5. Essens ausmachte. Daher ein Stern Abzug. Wir waren super zufrieden, es hat allen geschmeckt, von daher kann ich diese gesunde Alternative sehr gern weiterempfehlen. Vielen Dank fürs lesen euer Gordon

Excellent staff and amazing choosing poke. I will come again

Nice place to eat, clean ingredients, staff is very kind and explains everything, Thanks

The mix was bad for the falafel 🥙 They said to me the mayo is not hot but it was too hot for me 🥲 The falafel was not tasty

8 out of 10 times they are out of stock/ not offering bubble tea. I thought this is part of the normal menu not an ad hoc addition to it? Very disappointing. When they do serve it it’s brilliant. Poke bowls also nice and fresh.

If you’re looking for delicious fresh poke bowls with a punch of flavour then this is absolutely the place for you. I ordered a salmon bowl with edamame, lightly pickled cucumbers, pineapple, mango and wakame salad topped with wasabi mayo. The wasabi mayo was deliciously strong but definitely not for the faint of heart! The fruit was lovely and ripe and the salmon was delicious. I was also impressed by the amount of vegan options they had on the menu! There are plenty of plugs too which makes this a fantastic place to work or study. Truly such a cute place with such great poke bowls!

The food is absolutely delicious and fresh and poke portions are big and filling, they even sent me a free chicken gyoza which surprised me!!! Definitely my favourite place to order again

Beautiful store, super friendly staff and the freshest Poke! Highly recommend!

Loved it, stumled across the place, ordered a strawberry and black tea bubble drink, the service was amazing and the taste of the drink was gorgeous, will defo be going back for more...

This is my absolute favorite sushi place in Manchester. I have to say, i enjoyed every single bite of the roll. Excellent food. Can't wait to order again.

Great customer service! We tried the premium sushi set and my partner said it was very fresh and some of the best quality sushi he has had!
