Kims Kitchen Manchester in Manchester

Very lively atmosphere albeit very loud- if you enjoy live music and a well decorated interior, this is the place for you. The staff are generally interesting people who are great with customer service, not to mention the great quality for food and not-too-long wait times. The only downside I can name is prices- the food is a tad on the pricey side, but then again, the quality certainly does make up for this. Greatly recommended.

It’s an okay local place to go to, the atmosphere is not bad, but the whole place is not very clean, not sure about the hygiene.

Called in at Kim's Kitchen before going to a gig at the Academy, there were DJs playing cool records and the decor was very welcoming and pleasing. There's an excellent choice on the menu and the food was superb, and came in very substantial portions. Reasonably priced for food and drinks, give it a go if you're in Manchester 👌

Didn't have food but looked fab

A very warm welcome and absolutely delicious food! Popped in for lunch whilst visiting Machester Uni and Met open days. Easy going, relaxed atmosphere. Interesting and varied menu - all absolutely delicious!

Great atmosphere, very funky/ cool decor and vibe, good food and nice selection of drinks and beers at a reasonable price.

Cheap and cheerful, the team are nice and good atmosphere for infomral setting,

Great food, big portions, independently run, always veggie and vegan options, local beers, friendly staff, great history of hulme photos and decor.

Great place to eat, drink and have fun with an interesting clientele

Popped in for a mocktail, sat in the sunshine and sipped away surrounded by happy people enjoying Hulme cafe culture. A joyful moment in a hot, busy day.

Excellent coffee, great music (day or night), great service

kims is a lovely pub with a great vibe, friendly staff and good people! highly recommend

Top place don't miss it best caff in town

Fantastic Food in a Great Venue... Visited Sat for Evening Meal before out Foo's Gig.... The Festiva Unfiltered IPA went down a treat too! So impressed, we came back for a Beautiful Brunch before hitting the road back to Cambridge..... Thoughly recommended you pay these guys a Visit 😋🍺❤️

A gem of a cafe bar, great food, lovely staff, and chilled atmosphere 👌

Me and my friend came across this little cafe/bar and decided to go in to grab a coffee. We went to the bar to be served and the lady that served us was very unfriendly and came across judgemental. I asked for a coffee which was delicious but she left a spoon in my mug and when I said politely ‘can I leave this spoon with you’ she looked at me in disgust like I asked a stupid question. The rest of the staff were lovely and super friendly, but one staff in particular was very unwelcoming which has made me question ever going back. Such a shame!

Cool place in a handy location for drinks or food with friendly service and a nice atmosphere. We only drank this time but have eaten delicious food here before.

Consistently good. Love it here, 😍🤩

Brilliant atmosphere Great food Great staff Great selection of drinks too

A great place to eat, drink and hang out with an alternative vibe. The beating heart of Hulme.

Great food, atmosphere and people.

Chilled, welcoming, diverse. All food is made fresh on site. Portions are incredibly generous. Winner Winner, Kim's fish curry dinner

Always lovely to visit nice honecooked food and fab atmosphere friendly staff what else can I say 😀

Visited 27th April, party of 11, food brilliant, service brilliant, atmosphere brilliant, would have given 5 stars, toilets in desperate need of deep cleaning, not just one day's worth of being used

Went for a coffee around mid day . I thought the service was very poor . The two serving were more concerned with chatting to each other . Only one person in front of me but finally gave up and left . Second time this has happened . At least turn and connect with the customers who are waiting .

Wow!!! What a gem of a place. The food was great, the atmosphere was amazing. And a shout out to the alchemist behind the bar, her cocktail making skills were off the chart!! The coconut margarita has now got me hooked! Will defo be calling back.

Phone to get some food at Kim's kitchen I wanted to place the order and it seems like they didn't care I'm sorry to say this but I didn't feel very friendly towards people you're willing to pay money I suffer with disability problems and I can't get out like I used to my support worker got me to contact you so I did so I can get some warm to eat because I can't cook like I used to

Curry goat was really tasty, and VERY good portion size. Definitely enjoyed and would have the same again, although not exactly cheap at £17. My friend had the salt & pepper fries with chicken, said it was really tasty but could have done with a little more chicken. Unfortunately the bar was out of both Shindigger ales on draught and the Kim's own lager wasn't brilliant, but the Erdinger was good. Would definitely return for food, and hope the Shindiggeer is back available on top next time.

The food is delicious! Really good vibe & nice staff

Loud and casual, great food, great atmosphere

This place just gets better and better!

Good place. Nice environment, food's good. Chef's highly strung, it 'appens. Staff are otherwise nice. It's a Manchester thing, don't be friendly.

Very friendly place and superb breakfast

Great food and drink - can get a bit rowdy at the weekend, but that's half the fun if you're into that kind of thing!

Great meeting place. Nice vibe. At 6pm on a Wednesday packed. Staff seem very pleasant. Did not eat but the food did look good.

Parked my car.. was just looking for coffee .. 😞 and found this sooo nice place with sooo nice coffee.. thank you and see you again 😁

Great community based café bar with a nice covered terrace. Quick friendly service too. They have an amazing menu of food at great prices and some lovely Dortmunder lager on tap. The staff are really friendly and helpful too.

Great food and atmosphere, had the Chicken & chorizo pie from the specials menu, came fully loaded. The kids menus is top, went for Bangers and mash. Hats off to the Chef!

First of all, all the nice breakfast options like eggs Benedict and avocado eggs have disappeared. However, that's not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that we were a big table, all ordered at the same time and some of us were waiting for 50minutes. Even that is not the biggest problem, I understand that things can get busy. But they brought out a breakfast to a couple who ORDERED AFTER US. Possibly evening food is better, but I wouldn't go there for brunch.

Friendly atmosphere with good food and drinks.

Brilliant! chilled vibe atmosphere. Food out of this world. Definitely recommend the curried goat. Staff very helpful. We will be Definitely going back again. Keep up the good work guys. 👏🏽

Food was amazing however their online menu is really out of date. When I tries to order the lamb burger I was told it was 'really old' and no longer available however is still on their online menu. Other than that and the queue to order was great. Great value and the goat curry was amazing!

Food was excellent, drinks were excellent and vibes were excellent. I had the curry goat - it was lovely. Cleo’s service was amazing and she was super lovely. The drinks were yummy and reasonably priced too. Will be coming again!

Goat curry gorgeous well recommend to all

I work nearby and visit quite regularly. Good range of drinks. Diverse menu. All food is homemade made with great vegetarian and vegan options. Owner and staff are friendly and helpful.

Amazing food, well priced, HUGE portions!! Staff are welcoming, friendly and always try to help Definitely recommend for both daytime and evening!!

The heart and soul of Manchester

Great place for drinks and curried goat is amazing.

Really long wait for food at lunchtime. The food was overpriced and when it arrived it was average at best. The place was busy with kids running around everywhere. We encountered pure rudeness from members of staff. Suffice to say I would not recommend this place and will not be returning.

Food was good. Sam and the other dude was helpful. Best service and food in a while.

No doubt, my favourite place to go, super chilled out and friendly place. Food quality and portion size has always been spot on.

Kim's is by far one of my most favourite places to go. Good beer, amazing food, great music and lovely staff (shout out to Cleo especially, always so friendly). Had a few meals at Kim's and they've all been unreal - food may seem slightly on the pricier side but the portions are huge, very flavoursome and feels like proper home cooking. The beer garden is a little sun trap aswell so it's perfect :) got a really good community atmosphere - highly recommend.

I really wanted to like this place - we had such high hopes coming in, we loved the vibe. Ordered an omelette and a full English - after 45 minutes, we went inside to check where our food was, and we were given a free tea and coffee to say sorry. Then after waiting an hour and a half, we went inside to ask for a refund. We were told our order was the next one, and were given a 50% refund. So we decided to stick it out. After another 15-20 minutes and multiple dishes coming out that weren’t ours (so we obviously weren’t next - why lie?) we went back inside and asked for a full refund and left. At no point did anyone ever come over to us to say sorry or to explain what was going on, it was always us having to go inside and ask. I’ve never ever had to do this at a cafe/restaurant before. I couldn’t believe how shambolic it was, I shouldn’t have to wait nearly two hours for an omelette. It completely threw our whole day out of whack. I’m sure they were just having an off day but unfortunately we won’t be coming back.

Lovely vibes in this place, staff are friendly, cool venue with good tunes on. The food did used to be better a couple years ago but regardless it's one of the best places in the area. Bunch of veggie options, outdoor seating, dog-friendly. Only missing out on stars because the food used to be so much better. At one time it used to be worth a visit just to get the chips, proper triple-fried grandma chips... and now they're like anaemic slices of apple.

Best food and really nice people with a cool vibe. I would highly recommend the fish curry. Beautiful 🍛😋

fab sunny beer garden, great beer choice, nice food, dog friendly, great staff.

The best British cuisine in town, the special menu was so good every time I go there. Every dish from the kitchen was like a dad’s dish who very love his kids!!!

Love this place!! Best place in hulme by far, for drinks and food and a chilled atmosphere. Great for families and dog friendly too. Staff are fantastic!! Definitely visit if you're in Manchester.

Had lunch today . Lovely food and lovely staff .Would highly recommend x

Had the lamb shank special... A whole leg of lamb with enough broccoli and seasonal veg to match... Absolutely delicious! Regardless of the 4 tequillas for a tenna! 😎🤠

I just had the penfriend mackerel and it was absolutely delicious. Huge fish, that went great with the chilli salsa and crushed potatoes. I didn't take a picture but really wish I had. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere. Good food . Helpfull staff n very friendly. Dog friendly

Great food and atmosphere, lovely staff

Always great food. Homely feeling. Very diverse. Good vibe

Great food. Proper home cooked vibes.

Lovely people, lovely food/drinks, lovely place. Great to have such an excellent independent cafe/bar/restaurant/space in this part of Manchester. They've a good outdoor space for summer, and plenty space inside during winter. Nice beers, nice coffee, great food. Go visit! Independent places need support.

Not been to Kim’s for ages and just stopped by for quick bit of dinner, the Jalapeño Mac & cheese is still amazing and tried one of the specials of sea as with garlic potatoes, absolute knock out! Lovely little hidden gem with warm homely vibe, if you haven't been here yet I’d defiantly recommend!

Love this place. The food is outstanding I always have the fish curry which is to die for. The atmosphere is really homely and always feel really comfortable.

I know passion when I see it and I definitely see it with the two coolest guys I know who own the place. A massive turnaround from the previous management and well worth a visit. Well done you 😊

Amazing place. Lovely people, a proper community hub. Curry goat was ten/ten , great selection of liquor, and amazing people . Thank you lads and lasses

Fantastic food, with a great range of options for all. Really friendly staff and a brilliant community atmosphere. Very inclusive. I'll be back!

Best vibes ever, super attentive staff. I'm a super picky customer and have a nut allergy and Lina smashed it, she was brilliant. LOVE Kim's!

Been and had take out loads of times, always great food. The “Well good chips” are probably the best in Manchester!

Wonderful food great service and pricing that shames the city centre! I had a wonderful sausage and mash with an onion gravy and a pint of really strong cider. Total cost £14! In town the same meal would’ve over £20 and maybe not as delicious.

Lovely bloody place serving top food and filled with wonderful local characters.

I love coming to this place on a regular. The slow cooked goat curry is always my fave but I do love me some chicken goujons and a slice of home made cake for afters. It’s a staple in the community and the people that work there/run it are some of the loveliest I know ❤️🥳🔥👑

Kims is like eating at your mums gaff as it feels like home and the food is incredible and comforting! The staff are really friendly, the art work delves into Hulme’s history, and its great for private functions at the upstairs bit.

Kim’s is a Manchester institution!! So many good things to highlight about this place!! Wether the incredibly friendly and attentive staff or the beautiful settings you can tell it’s a hub for the community and lets get to the food!! So many amazing dishes from around the globe the “salt n pepper” chips are “out of this world” amongst too many other mouthwatering offerings!! Accompanied by a perfect “not overpowering” musical soundtrack it’s a perfect venues for solo or family meals ❤️❤️❤️

Fish curry was out of this world Lovely coffee and home baked cakes All staff were so polite and made it feel like you’d been going your whole life Beautiful surroundings An asset to the city

Great place with a friendly atmosphere and decent scrans. Recommend checking the daily specials board!

best brekkie post gig we've had in a long time, crackin Iced coffees, and decent vegan options too!

absolutely love it here, the staff are so nice and the food is banging! top tunes and vibes 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

the most welcoming place I've been in a while, a credit to the community!

This place is just ace! Great food, brilliant drink selection & really lovely atmosphere. All the staff at Kims Kitchen are super friendly, so if you get chance to visit this place, you won't be disappointed.

Had a vegan breakfast yesterday and was banging. The spinach was *chefs kiss*

The best food, drinks and service in Manchester. The curry goat is absolutely banging and so are Yemi’s special cocktails. Kims Kitchen feels like more than a restaurant, it’s a community and will welcome you in with open arms. All the food and drinks are clearly made with the utmost care and attention to detail and the staff always have a smile and a laugh for you.

Waited 50 mins for our food. And staff keep talking to themselves and won't acknowledge you . Best eat elsewhere unless you've got 50 minutes and don't feel hungery

An hour wait for an English breakfast and fish curry. People are great and friendly, but the waiting time and food being alright, really killed it for me. Will definitely not be returning

Long wait, average food and badly behaved children. Would give them a lower score but they are nice people.

The best alternative to a pub with fabulous staff and food and of course beer.

Great place for a meal. Huge portions, reasonable prices, very good quality, and a wide menu selection. It's got a community café feel to it, and is relaxed and casual. You can sit inside or outside, and they serve alcohol too.

Really enjoyed the delicious food. The prices are great and their specials menu is always super interesting and tasty.

Went for brunch, got the Med Breakfast and Veggie breakfast - delightful 🤤 Lots of vegan and veggie options 👌

Kim’s is the bees knees! Digged some shins, scranned some fried goods and vibes to some MJ Cole. One for all the family and lovers alike! I’ll be back

Great place, good food and polite staff

Excellent food and good customer service

Great place with nice outdoor seat. I had fish curry, and my partner had mashed potato with sausage and peas. Fish curry came with rice, pita, and mint yogurt in the side (I added prawn, prawn wasn't originally in the fish curry). Fish was boneless, and the whole dish was pretty flavorful, the portion was decent. I got really fed up after this! Loved the outdoor seat, suitable for sunny day if you just wanna grab a quick bite or grab a drink and chill there. Staff were very friendly and nice. Will definitely visit again some other time!

Goat curry was banging. Place is a vibe. Highly recommend.

Food and staff excellent, with a warm friendly vibe. When we went there were more customers than they could cope with, so the wait was too long for us. They dealt with us generously.

Great warm welcome. Catered for a lot of us and gave us our own space. Top notch food and service throughout. We’ll definitely be back!
