La Buka African Restaurant in Manchester

Abula was nice but amala was so lumpy Had no menus Took ages for food to come Didn’t bring food to the table had to go pick it up myself Ambiance was cold and gloomy

My wife keeps coming for the Amala

Really good food. It’s just full of men who like to stare.

Rowdy place with a lot of noise and rude people. I can't say anything about the food because I left the place not happy.

Been coming here since I was 8 I’m Naomi’s friend the owners daughter never served bad food I’ll always eat there u guys should try it too

Lovely canteen with yummy delicacies........

I am very disappointment with the service I received recently. I had been looking forward to trying your Nigerian cuisine for the first time and decided to place an order for delivery. However, my experience was far from satisfactory. Despite calling multiple times, I was repeatedly told that someone would ask the driver and get back to me. Unfortunately, I never received a follow-up call or text message. This lack of communication and service is highly disappointing. I was eager to experience your food, but this situation has left me frustrated and dissatisfied. I hope you take this feedback seriously and work on improving your customer service to prevent such issues in the future.

Their food was good and delicious but needs to improve in customer service.

I love the place bcos it's well organised

We ordered Naija food here and it was pretty delicious. It was well made and the spices were just on point. It’s really a nice place to grab some Naija food in Manchester

Good atmosphere, good food and brilliant customer service

The African dish are all a wow experience

The efo riro here is some of the tastiest I’ve ever had. I got it with fish and it was very tasty! Their prices are also very reasonable.

First time trying this place as i live 5mins away, im Jamaican background but always wanted to try African food! Boyyyy this did not disappoint the flavours were amazing especially the Jollof rice the pounded yam and egusi was lovely. some parts of the beef was tough to eat but over all i would rate this a solid 9/10. Definitely will be back again. Thank you ☺️

The food taste was poor,vegetable soup and edikaikon was not good at all,i wont recommend labuka .

Im a ghanaian but I loved the egusi soup and poundo, definitely try it again

This place is amazing wow. I enjoyed every bit. Very generous of the portion they served, we had to wait how many minutes before we were able to stand up 🤣🤣. Recommendable to go with friends 👍🏾👍🏾

This was my first point of call when I searched Nigerian restaurants near me. I checked the reviews, and the comments were favourable. I enjoyed the abula and the assorted meats. The service was good, I can't complain much. The atmosphere needs to improve as so much loud music we're being played. African restaurants or Nigerian restaurants need to think international. Their patronage should not be limited to Nigerians or Africans alone but should cut across all races.

Was a delight to behold and the African/Nigerian feeling was overwhelming.

The food was excellent as usual. I have been to La buka numerous times, and I have recommended the restaurant to others. This is real soul food.

A taste of pure African cuisine

Good food, friendly staff and atmosphere was conducive. Will surely visit again with friends.

Have had better and for same price

They are very welcoming but the food wasn’t what I expected. 5/10.

La Buka African Restaurant give a pure vibe of home away from home, from the atmosphere , to the music and the great customer service. The Amala tastes really good alongside the Ewedu and Gbegiri accompanied by ogunfe(goat meat) Shaki(tripe) and beef☺️. My family had pounded yam and egusi, Jollof rice and beef which they said was all nice.

Nice African store but need to better in their service. The jollof rice I had was Ok. The staff always seem busy that you have to remind them a couple of times of your request. Food takes time to be served so if you’re really hungry, maybe have some snacks while you wait

Great food, excellent customer service. By far the best place for Nigerian meals in England, the Amala makes so much sense, I’d rate it above every other I’ve tried in the Uk, and even better than some ones you have in Lagos. I just can’t miss this place whenever I’m in Manchester 👍

Always a pleasure coming here. Friendly attendance, tasty food and fun atmosphere. 👍🏾

Food is awesome but the Atmosphere and services needs improvement and upgrade.

Their food is very delicious, I had their poundo with Egusi/Efo, my friend had Abula. We would definitely go back to La buka when we're in Manchester

The food was tasty, I had jollof rice and beef meat.

The food itself is not bad but the portions are ridiculously smaller than they initially were which is as let down. Especially with the already expensive prices. The service is not too bad but the atmosphere can be very loud and rowdy

Order was cancelled after waiting over an hour,don't even know why i bother with this restaurant..what a waste of time

Well cooked meal. Neat convenience.

Absolutely amazing experience the food is something else to be honest...delicious food very respectful staffs My only issue now that the place is far from me due to travelling from Nottingham to Manchester

The restaurant is home away from home, proper Nigeria delicacies, sumptuous meal, clean environment. Customer friendly. Meals, well prepared under a good atmosphere.

WOW, l have just had the best Amala outside of Nigeria. The soup was with enough pepper and not swimming in oil. I plan to come here at least once a month. Keep up the good work. Xxx

One thing is to stay/lodge around Ikeja, and another is knowing where to get good food. And La Buka Restaurant is just the place to dine in and take out too.

This is a great place to visit if you're looking for the best Nigeria foods in town

This restaurant food has gone from okay food to worst food. So tasteless, the beef ain't fried. The soup was watery, the jollof rice was awful. I'm supposed to get a refund. I won't be buying from them again nor recommend them.

Best Nigerian food plug in Manchester

Cool Nigerian restaurant with pleasant customer service

Delicious Naija food in Manchester.

A good place to get African food and drinks, very calm and clean environment

Feels like being back home.. Structural Uplift in progress, looks much better. Good African meals always!

Much needed revamping ongoing as at the last time I was there. Moderately priced food with large portion (for me though😁). Food is also tasty and warm whenever I or my guests have been served. Good customer relation or service, my only reservation is the level of noise some guests make (in addition to the already blaring music). Still one of my go-to African restaurants in Manchester 😊

Great food, the jollof is a must have! Lovely atmosphere, will definitely go there again whenever I'm in Manchester!

It is superb and highly recommendable

Very good food and quality hygiene..

Lovely restaurant to get African dishes ... It's a home away from home for me

Their phone is not always working you can't even call to order for food.

A restaurant to get Nigerian meals in Moston, Manchester. Payments can be made with cash or via card though cash is preferred. Pounded yam, amala, egusi, assorted meat, jollof rice etc are available. You can eat in or take away.

Great Amala Abula spot. Tasty food, but they could make the spot be lil more presentable and clean.

Premium Amala and ewedu and other Nigerian delicacies, at a great price too😉

On Saturday afternoon, I ordered rice and sauce for my girlfriend at the moment to eat it there was HAIR or EYELASHES in each spoon she was taking which is unacceptable for a food restaurant. If I could put 0 stars I would do it but unfortunately the lowest is 1 star. GO THERE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Fantastic reception, and good food.

The food was nice but the place is so dirty.

Very nice welcoming and good customer service

Great African Food! Best of the best food restaurant

I did not enjoy the meat, but the soup was tasty

Nice food, lovely service and ambience

A very awesome experience, home away from home! You won't even know you ain't in Nigeria restaurant. The food is nothing short of excellent. Very delicious and the portions are large. You get value for your money. This is the place to eat if you're in Manchester. The husband and wife are wonderful and awesome people.

Best African Restaurant in Manchester #DontSayIDidntTellYou

A nice place to get African dishes. Especially Nigerian dishes of pounded yam

Àmàlà, bokoto, pomp, and goat meat is top

So delicious 😋 We were eating vegetables soup with assorted meat. Recommended!

Tasty West African dishes. Egusi and Okra soup is super tasty.

Very taste african food well recommended.

Cheap meal £10 for 2. Only black African attendees normally.

Fantastic tasty food.. I which this place was near me in London it would have been my regular place. I have been to so many Nigerian restaurants in England and this place will rate amongst my top two. We had Pepper soup and Abula and both dishes were amazingly good. The lady owner was warm and very welcoming and the place will remind yo of downtown Lagos. Don't be put off by the decor!!

When it's comes to enjoying best Nigerian food and bring back memories of what you've been missing..food wise .I think la buka is the best place when u are in Manchester.

Delicious food and the hospitality was excellent a place where nice people are meeting

I must have picked a wrong day to buy food from this restaurant, the food was terrible TERRIBLE, selling bamati rice as white rice, smelling ofada sauce not fresh at all, the soups were just dere. Just a total waste of Money.

Excellent Nigerian restaurant!! The owner and the husband are very nice people too. It was my first time in Manchester and I was looking for a good Nigerian restaurant so I decided to go with this. I'm happy I did as I enjoyed the food a lot. The portions were very big and not expensive at all and the food was very delicious too. The husband was so kind that he even offered to drop me at the train station when I was asking them how to get there. I'll definitely be back!

Love the meals. I'll definitely recommend.

The best African dishes right now in Manchester, England.

Excellent customer relations, but my kids were not impressed with the Gents.

Very Nice place to relax and have a proper African meal. Very hygienic and neat place to meet up.

Good Nigerian eatery place in Manchester.

Lovely african foods and good helpful and friendly.

Very polite staff n the food was amazing

Cooking delicious food and very accommodating

The staff are polite and welcoming. The food is excellent with varieties of different soups and dishes. I wouldn't hesitant to return to the restaurant. However, it is common of a number of Nigerian restaurants not to have a physical presentation. Please, it only cost a little bit of your investment in your business venture and the restaurant could attract more customers. #TidyUpNigeria

Entrance is very unkempt and their idea of suya is fried meat with spices sprinkled on top. OK.

I and my wife had a good time today. Nice place to be

THE INTERIOR ITSELF IS NOT SPECIAL BUT MAN, THE FOODS ARE CONFIRM FANTASTIC AND FREINDLY GUEST, I GUESS THE CEO, HIMSELF IS IN THE HOUSE AND VERY VERY FRIENDLY.

Visited with family on a Saturday, guess what, we were not disappointed! Fresh food and timely served!

Good food & friendly atmosphere

Nice meal, there is room for improvement.

Food good. But not female friendly.

Labuka Manchester Good Food👍👍👍Says By Davido(David Adeleke).....Confirmed By Buklad👏👏👏

Lovely place to visit with friends and family.

Always fresh and reasonably priced. The abula is my favourite :)

Excellent food and great service.

Food was ok but the interior could do with some work to augur for a better environment and feel.

Excellent place for Africa food.

Good place for Nigerians and Africans to have a nice meal anytime

The restaurant is ok, it needs a bit updating, customer service is good and they are friendly. The food is ok not the best to me but they are ok.

Worst customer service. Incomplete food but collect same money. Labuka can never be efficient and consistent as SPICES FOOD just around the corner Their deikang is tasteless as well as the fried rice.

Worse fried rice I have ever tasted
