This is the most welcoming bar in Chorlton! Staff are great, the people are great, the music/DJ’s are great and the drinks are cheap. What more do you want from a bar? Every time I come I meet new people, make great friends and have a laugh. Jam Street never disappoints!

My first visit on Saturday 4th June 2022. Friendly and very welcoming staff, drinks and food reasonably priced. Drinks served quickly and correct temperature. Food ordered, short wait and was delicious. A great value for money venue. Clean, and organised layout, toilets especially clean. Spacious, music themed modern decor. Outdoor space as well. Fab relaxing atmosphere with mixture of people. Staff member Caroline makes sure that everyone is happy and in particular looking after an older customer all night making sure a taxi was ready for their safe journey home. 2 fabulous DJ's, were performing. Host Dj Devine and guest Dj Benji Their music was on point from before 8pm and continued to entertain till past midnight. People were enjoying the music and dancing and those sitting down were vibing to the sounds. It was So good. They have a comedy night on Thursday's and it's getting a bit of reputation for being very good, so I will be coming back for that. I recommend Jam Street, you won't be disappointed.

Jam Street Café is an absolute MUST visit when in Chorlton: unmissable! This is definitely an hidden (?) gem in all Manchester. Great vibe and atmosphere, super friendly & caring staff, everyone is welcome, and I say everyone!! There is a new theme night on a Thursday: it is open mic Comedy Night, and after attending yesterday evening, I can say it is brilliant, with a lot of nice, funny, talented people trying their very best to entertain you. Last night was very busy with people from England, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, West & North Africa, the Middle-East and even from the US: what a beautiful melting pot ;-) Thank you Kaz (Bar's Manager) for making every night at Jam a SPECIAL night!

"This is a true and fair review. Im not paid for this or in anyway related to the owners". Ok this warm friendly venue is what you could describe as a cafe winebar establishment open everyday and most evenings. Nice Food served (upstairs, & downstairs), cosy seating, well stocked bar area (you can even use your card). Jam street also has the added bonus of a "musicians jam night" on weds & friday evenings. So if your also into playing an instrument 'at any level' do pay a visit on weds or friday eves.Your encouraged to bring your own instrument, guitar, bass, sax, flute, Vocals, violin, harmonica, in fact whatever your into playing live. Jam nights include all music styles From Reggae to blues, and soul on weds, plus Virtually any genre on fridays. Or simply get down there with your friends for a drink and chill whilst having a listen."Please no show offs or musical posers". Decent toilets and Reasonable parking. Check it out see you soon.

Ive been planning to visit "Jam street" for months, ever since some fellow musician friends invited me along.. Its a friendly spot Situated at the top end of Upper Chorlton road providing toilets and disabled access..My first visit was on a weds evening..I found this very welcoming, relaxed cafe bar nice atmosphere with the added bonus of a "musicians Jam night" every " Weds, and Friday, nights".You dont have to be a musician i might add, but if you are, feel free to take part in an evening of varied and pleasurable musical genres including Soul, Rock, blues, Reggae, Rap, Soca, or a mixture of all..in fact Just about anything goes musically. "Weds nights" are my regular favourite choice a bit of reggae dancing breaks up the week nicely. Most people turn up empty handed but still given the opportunity to join in using the available instruments or take the "vocal mike" whilst others dance or enjoy watching over a cool drink at the well stocked bar. You can even have a nice meal upstairs. What i like at "Jam street" is you never see anyone over intoxicated falling about or anyone causing trouble. Mind you Im a strictly soft drinks person myself. You can even use your card at the bar.. Its a friendly scene..pay a visit soon. Wear your dancing shoes Youll be more than welcome. Your first drinks on me..Also toilets and disabled access.

I love jam street and all the staff! The food is just excellent! I went there in the early evening that day before before valentines day for a tapas meal with my boyfriend. Melissa who works behind the bar set a lovely candle lit table for you near the piano! Then a little later some a the locals/regulars started appearing and we had a lovely chat up. I even meet some new lovely people. The music is very free and inspiring at jam street. Some people have been playing together in bands in Manchester for over 30 years. They are true musicians and even play on the street (busking). Jam street is a place of well seasoned players who know want its means to be a musician. It's a honour to watch and it's an honour to join in! It's a good place to go if you like raggae, blues and Jazz! I can honestly say that it's one of the safest places to drink and be merry. People are respectful. It's a multicultural place for those who love to meet new people from all backgrounds and ethnicities.

Esta es la segunda vez que hemos comido aquí y nos hemos quedado impresionados de nuevo, para empezar, el chef había anulado la hora y estaba sentado en el bar, pero se ofreció amablemente a cocinar nuestra comida y sugirió sus favoritos. Los sabores de cada plato son completamente únicos y todos tienen un sabor increíble. El chili paneer especialmente! Además de una excelente comida, la música es siempre una combinación fantástica de relajado ritmo, funk y soul, y el personal es un grupo encantador con un ambiente cálido y acogedor. 10/10 cada vez.

Regularmente ir a mermelada Street y hemos comido allí unas cuantas veces. Normalmente voy después del trabajo, así que es bastante tranquilo. Fuimos la semana pasada y me di cuenta de que tenía un nuevo menú de tapas indio así pensamos probarlo - absolutamente fantástico. La comida era precioso, sirve en estas preciosas poco a los bolos. Caliente pero no quemar la boca, así que no puedo probar de nuevo, pero sólo en una preciosa que caliente muy sabroso. Tuve la berenjena y las croquetas con arroz. Fue tan bueno que me volví una semana más tarde con mi hija de 20 años y su compañero, también cayó en el amor. De hecho les deje allí jugando uno de los juegos de mesa siempre y fui a casa. Personal amable que parará y tengo un poco de charla con todo el mundo, sin duda volveremos de nuevo.

Called in for a cuppa..very unwelcoming. Freezing cold with no heating on, bright lights blaring, no music and no atmosphere. No wonder it was empty. Ordered a tea and coffee. The waiter nice and polite but only brought the coffee and completely forgot the tea, which was odd seeing as there were no customers in there. When the tea came the cup was only half full and I had to ask for water to be added. The coffee was £3.95, not exactly cheap and nothing special.

Popped into jam street couple weeks ago with a friend, never been in before but was pleasantly surprised! Food came out fast considering what sort of menu they have there as sometimes that sort of food can take awhile with my experience of restaurant type places. ordered the sweet potato risotto and my friend ordered the lamb & feta burger, they both were really gorgeous. Everything about the place just seems clean and feels right, will definitely be going back.

Hi,Already reviewed Jam Street on here once but feel should submit another review as they have completely revamped their menu since last time we went. I've eaten there twice since the new chef came in and both times have to honestly be among the best meals that I've ever eaten out, proper top quality restaurant food at a reasonable price. They've converted the upstairs room into a proper little bistro and especially lovely on a sunny evening.I had sea bass and it came with a kind of sweet spicy thai beg broth, rice and dumplings, the combination of flavours, disparate as they were, worked incredibly well. Prior to that I had the steak which was perfect. The fish cakes starter and date and ginger pudding are out of this world as well. My partner had roast duck with plum sauce last time we went and the pork belly prior to that, and both times she said that they were as good as I found my dinners.I know that a lot of people have criticised the food her prior to the changeover (I thought it was ok), but this is such an improvement, I'd recommend anyone in Whalley Range or Chorlton pop over and give it a go.

I just had lunch here for the first time and was really hoping it would be great as it's very close to my home but sadly it just isn't.The lady behind the bar was nice but when asked about a detail on the menu she couldn't help me but went to ask the chef so that was fine but I asked her to not serve my chicken burger, salad and fries with tomato as I hate the damn stuff raw.Some guys that ordered at the same time as me received their meal quite quickly but mine hadn't come after a further 10 minutes after they'd been served and then another table that ordered after me were served their meal so I asked the waitress to check on mine to be told it hadn't been ordered - so then waited another 10 mins. When it arrived the salad was full of tomato as was the burger . The burger was fairly dry the chicken over done and instead of a whole fillet it was thin slices of fillet and there was a fairly large piece of bone in it.To be honest I ate 2/3rds of the burger and fries as I was starving but left the salad. There isn't one big gripe that I have with the place it's just that everything feels a bit amateurish with no passion or flair and too many smallish issues make one big crap lunch.So won't be back I'm afraid.

I've popped in here for a drink on a number of occasions, they have a selection of craft beers and lagers which are on the whole good. However one I bought was very sour but the barman happily replaced it with another. My main gripe was that I asked for a packet of crisps and the lady behind the bar produced one that was labelled on the packet 39p. She however wanted to charge me 90p "because everyone around here charges that for crisps".I don't mind paying over the odds for some things i.e if the service is exceptional or the food wonderful but to be clearly ripped off in this way was a first! I won't be going again because "everyone around here offers better value"!

Ordered the falafel wrap. It was pretty tasty, came with a side garnish and i was happy with it for what I paid. Orange juice disappointing. Just your bog standard. I came here about 2 years ago and remember the coffee not so good. That's why I ordered an OJ. After reading a review just now sounds like coffee hasn't improved any. Please Mr Owner get some yummy coffee?

nothing special yes nothing special , I think that is too expensive, food is not tasty, I love English breakfast but it was awful, mainly the bacon and toast. I recommend this bar in the evening for a beer

Brother asked for a flat white. Unfortunately the guy working that day was covering and didn't have a clue what it was. Came out with a weird, milky drink in a latte glass, which was sent back while another member of staff tried again, returning with a cup of burnt coffee- and far from a flat white. I ordered a Cajun chicken wrap. It had sweet chilli sauce all over it?! Confused flavours. My mum got the pulled pork bun which looked delicious though and she enjoyed it. The menu itself is awful and really needs redoing. Spelling errors and unnecessary capitalisations all over the place. The use of the faded picture of vegetables in the background looks like something you might get in a crap takeaway to display what food they serve. We know what food looks like. However, this place has loads of potential and the staff were eager to please (even though they couldn't on some occasions). The refurbishment looks great and it's a really good place to go for breakfast. Lovely atmosphere and really glad it has opened again. I just hoped for more from the menu (aesthetically and culinary)and we were surprised that the staff were barista trained.

It's great to see Jam Street reopened. It has undergone a huge revamp with a couple of extra rooms added. The new landlord seems keen to develop it as a bit of a cultural hub with spoken word poetry nights, DJ nights, jam sessions, comedy nights and quizzes.The food is really nice, the veggie breakfast has become a big favourite and all at a reasonable price. It's great that this area of Manchester is developing a cultural identity of its own in terms of nightlife and the Jam Street is at the vanguard of this.

We visited the newly opened Jam Street Cafe a few Sundays ago, 2 adults 2 children, we had chicken and cauliflower cheese, chicken was cooked beautifully and the cauliflower cheese tasty, roasties and parsnips where the best veg, I was stuffed!!! Will definitely be going again, oh we did go again last weekend for coffee and cake, coffee was lovely and cakes equally so, we had a brownie, which came warm with and an oreo cake. Great service, child friendly all round great changes for a new Jam Street

The decor seemed a bit too minimal but I'm happy anywhere that has piles of Tunnock's Teacakes stacked on the counter. Luckily the breakfast menu seems to be available well into the afternoon. The smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on toast was heavy on the portions and exactly what my hangover needed, although the staff did take their time serving what is a pretty simple dish. As other reviewers have mentioned, it is very family friendly. Luckily gurgling babies don't bother me in the slightest, but if you're recovering from the night before then listening to little Chloe bang her rattle on the table ain't ideal. But if you're looking for a place to gossip about the night before over a tasty breakfast then you could do a lot worse.

Great place but the air can feel a bit greasy, due to the open plan kitchen.

I spoke to the owners via Facebook messenger to arrange a visit initially for 4 people. I told him I had a wowcher deal voucher and he asked me for the codes .which I gave him over messenger. The next day I added another wowcher deal so that two more friends could join and confirmed with the owner . But on the morning of the visit two of my party were poorly and unable to come .I messaged them at 8 am advising them that the last wowcher wouldn't be needed and apologised . When we arrived, we were seated at what can only be described as an unstable formica card table. We were right next to the door on a cold damp September day, so we shut the door. But that only made the 'cafe' steam up and enclose the smell of well done bacon and sausages. If we were popping in for a quick bite to eat like a bacon butty or a cake thats fine but it really isn't the environment for an afternoon tea. The afternoon tea eventually came on missmatching cake stands and our cuppa came in a cup , no saucer . There wasn't enough room on our table to place both plate stands so one couple had to balance theirs on a babies high chair that was near our table . The finger sandwiches consisted of Ham and Mustard and cheese and pickle .OK but not much variety .we got half a standard sausage roll each . Mine was cold but my friends was warm ,home made jam tarts that looked like a child had made . Chocolate brownie pieces, home made flapjacks ( more seeds than anything else ) a plain scone each, a tiny pot of butter, jam and clotted cream . Not enough cream for 4 people and lastly a slice of fruit cake. We made the best of the situation and my friends company outweighed everything else . The young girl was friendly enough and made sure we had a supply of tea and coffee .included in the wowcher deal was a glass of ginand mixer but we had to ask for it and I'm sure we wouldn't of received them if I hadn't asked .on a final note , when I came to redeem my third unused wowcher I was unable to because it had already been cashed in . I have messaged the owner to clear up this matter but as yet not heard back but early days . We travelled from the other side of Manchester to have this afternoon tea but unfortunately won't be returning

Latte are too expensive especially with alternative milk. Toilet smells always bad, sometimes the smell come outside the toilet, it's embarrassing, they should use toilets products. For the service and quality it's fine but the new staff always had a problem making foam, it's frustrating

Tried to order food from app ended up going to bar who informed me the lunch menu didn’t start till 12pm which was fine but nothing on menu or app stating this .
