Manhattan Bar and Grill in Liverpool

My partner and I come to see the river of lights yesterday and stumbled on this lovely family run business. Layla and her husband where so according. The food was amazing I had the burger and my partner had the chicken burrito. Thanks to all the staff for making us feel so welcome at short notice. We will definitely come back again . Thank you so much (love from conwy )

What a great meal we had. The service was friendly and the food was lovely. Will definitely be back on our next visit to Liverpool

Always a pleasure to pop in, lovely food, nice drinks and a perfect sparkly bar area to relax in 😃

Lovely food and good value. We had steak as it's special offer on a Tuesday and it was very well cooked served with chunky chips and salad couldn't eat it all.Waitress was very friendly and service was excellent.Came here based on reviews and wasn't disappointed.

Food was decent, very loud on a Saturday night. Good if that kind of place is your thing, seems like somewhere to go to get food before going out to a club. American food mostly.

We often go to this restaurant to eat and it never disappoints. The food is always lovely, and I would highly recommend trying here, if you have not already. The service is also very good.

Only drinks. Amazing cocktails🍨

Best bar and restaurant in Liverpool. The food is outstanding especially the steak which is to die for. Excellent customer service from the team who always go the extra mile and are so friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is amazing especially when Shaun is on he is a fabulous and very talented singer and really knows how to get the party started. Would highly recommend the Manhattan.

Great food, beer and wine, staff were friendly and attentive, we had the steak deal which was great value.

Lovely little place! Clean. Friendly staff.

Food and service was great, I will definitely come back here on my next visit to Liverpool

We came for something to eat and the food was amazing. The staff were all very friendly and it was a great atmosphere. I highly recommend and I will definitely go back next time I’m in Liverpool

Det ser inte mycket ut för välrden, men där inne ryms mer än man ser. Har tyvärr endast varit här för dryck, inte mat, men de har en riktigt trevlig liten uteservering att njuta av en trevlig kväll.

An excellent night! A large group pf us with most opting for the bottomless brunch- friendly service and delicious food. Will definitely return.

We visited here first time for a staff night out and decided on the bottomless brunch. It did not disappoint! Great price and amazing food. We definitely got our moneys worth, the drinks didn’t stop. Beautiful surroundings and a great spot in the city! Will 💯 be returning soon

We booked bottomless brunch for our friends leaving do and it was absolutely fantastic. The drinks were flowing, the food was gorgeous and the staff were all very lovely. 5* service we would definitely come back again soon. Thank you

I stay over in Liverpool once a month and have just found this little gem of a bar and grill. Staff are friendly, service is great and I love the food.

Enjoyed a lovely meal with my family at the Manhattan. A very warm welcome from the staff in this family run restaurant. Good portions sizes & all three of us really enjoyed our meals. Amazing find will certainly return the next time we visit Liverpool.

Beautiful place to eat. Staff are amazing, fun with no trouble!

Amazing bar, Dean snd Carlos looked after us for hours. Thanks guys 5* all the way

Came the manhattan yesterday, and as always the food is lovely! The crispy chilli chicken with rice was delicious and soooo fresh.. My partner got gammon with fries and he really enjoyed it.. Been here few times and the food is always lovely, and there is lots to choose from the menu, definitely something for everyone. And the staff are lovely, friendly & helpful, so just want to say thanks to Jack who was fab 👍

Fab night, great food .. Carol our waitress was wonderful. . Thanks all would love to come back

Celebrating work colleagues 60th birthday! Food was amazing! Big shout out to CAROL!! X

Thank you for the perfect evening for our 60th birthdays! Food and staff were first class!! X

Very tasty dishes. The ribs are just tenderness itself. Had lunch with my family. Come try it. The dishes are big,

Really great and rich food, and very good service

Good food, but a little pricey.

Excellent 3rd visit over the last few years. Both had the steak and it was fantastic 😋 great service and fantastic atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Great little place with awesome service. Shannon our waitress (she seemed like the only one) was a delight and very friendly. The food was amazing. I had the Empire burger (3 6oz burgers, cheese bacon etc) and finished every bit, despite being warned otherwise. My wife had the sweet chilli chicken and was equally impressed. We had a couple of cocktails with our meal (and water that you can see in the pictures) and what surprised me was that they exchanged my 2nd one with no question when I didn't like it - very nice and certainly something they did not have to do. Yes, it's small and a little squashed but I read that as cosy and friendly, and its certainly not going to stop a repeat visit if I'm ever across that way again. Big thumbs up from both of us 👍🏻👍🏻

Buzzing atmosphere, casual family friendly. Lovely service. Tasty fresh food.

Fabulous meals empire burger and sweet chilli chicken. Both were amazing as were the cocktails. Shannon’s server was so attentive and helpful. This is a perfect hidden gem

Great food and cocktails, throughly enjoyed my meal and the staff where so lovely and accommodating. Would highly recommend!

Went to the Manhattan for a family birthday and the staff were most helpful explaining the menu. Service was great and food was lovely will definitely be back.

Fantastic food and great atmosphere. Excellent value for money. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Can’t wait to return.

Delicious grub, the Monday 30 percent off is an absolute steal for a main. Walked out well fed and very happy with this Gem. Ended up having the Spicy chicken strips and rice but I will be back for a burger. Very good and great for groups of 4-6 people

I’m a regular income in each weekend for food which is always spot on and the staff are all great I highly recommend the place

I've ate and drank at Manhattan bar many times and never fails to disappoint from the exceptional hospitality off the staff to the quality of the food I couldn't recommend here any more ! for what ever occasion we always feel welcome and looking forward to the next visit and thanks to carol for being a belter

2nd time visiting this restaurant had a amazing Sunday lunch roast dinner cooked to perfection had the 3 course great value for your money. Food and service was amazing couldn’t do enough for us they entertained my children brilliantly and believe me they can be a handful 😁 so thank you carol and luci we definitely be seeing you 2 again in the future

Very good food, with live music. A bit expensive, but it’s all right

We came here based on good reviews and it being close to our hotel after a busy day we couldn’t be bothered to go far afield. On entry you can tell it’s a bit dated and decor needs updating, other than the bar area which has a certain charm about it, a bit vintage in a good way. Waitress and barman were absolutely lovely, but the place is too small and seats are too close together, the table across from us had obviously had a few drinks and kept trying to chat and that just wasn’t the vibe we were going for. Starters arrived and it was clearly just deep fried pre packaged frozen food, over seasoned with way too much salt. The mains however were the worse, and a let down, the carbonara was a goopy consistency and didn’t taste right, it had formed a skin after only a minute of being put down and the pepperoni pasta bake was just a thick layer of pizza mozzarella that had been grilled which when removed left a soupy grease/watery pasta sauce with lumps of chicken that unfortunately we didn’t feel comfortable eating, no flavour, but excess salt again. Overall the food is really not worth eating and although they have offers on, I’d assume that is the only thing pulling people in. Really disappointed having wasted our last meal of our trip coming here. We had concerns about the potential need for a re-check on the hygiene rating after 5 years since it’s been checked.

Arrived for our reservation, we were greeted and seated immediately…great start, but sadly from there it went down hill, the waitress was lovely very friendly and attentive. We ordered our meals didn’t have to wait too long, one of the starters was very over cooked and tasted like salt. We then got our mains my main was chicken which still had the gristle parts of the chicken on and the dish was swimming in grease, the garlic bread was overcooked. I left most of mine which was a shame as I was looking forward to the meal after reading past reviews. The Venue itself seemed clean apart from the fact there was wallpaper stuck back on with sellotape. The venue was also very loud with people shouting and chatting seemed more like just a “pub” not a restaurant. Would not recommend an overall very disappointing experience

A great find. Great food at good prices.

Visited on a friend's recommendation for a Sunday roast. As it's a first visit I wasn't sure what to expect. There was a choice of beef or chicken. I got the beef and one of our party is vegetarian, they accomadated this without any fuss even provided veggie gravy, although it wasn't listed on the menu and this might put people off. Carol was a delight, chatty, smiling and friendly. Happy to provide drinks to the table so we didn't have to get up. The food arrived, very appealing to the eye. Perfect temperature and absolutely delicious. None of us could fault it. The only problem we had was our stomachs weren't big enough to finish it all. However carol was on hand to provide boxes to take leftovers away. I will return very soon when I have a Sunday off work to indulge in another delicious Sunday roast.

Great wee hidden gem in the heart of Liverpool Warm atmosphere with good seating, great menu. Tried to phone in the Morning to book a table but no answer but they immediately called me back . When I turned up she recognised my Scottish accent from the call and was very pleasant 10/10 We will be back .

Outstanding food, well priced, friendly staff. Will definitely be returning 👌 I only gave 4 stars for atmosphere as it was quite when we visited, but there were some cracking tunes on

Excellent all round experience dining here. Food was excellent. I had the cluck n ribs, wow but unfortunately couldn't finish it. Quite a bit on your plate. Very good value for money. Service was top notch and very attentive. Thank you guys. Lovely atmosphere and will definitely be calling again. Highly recommend.

Great place for food, not much of an atmosphere sadly, however food was great

Had a fun time here plenty drinks and lovely staff and amazing place.

Booked twice here, the first time on November 18th for a table on 22nd December. The booking has been cancelled twice with no explanation why. I rang to find out why and was told a large party has booked the restaurant. When i pointed out we'd booked 1st i was told sorry about that. This was going to be a treat for my wife, I'm absolutely fuming, If this is the way they treat people i sincerely hope they go out of business.

Went before going to the Royal Court been many times cannot complain food and service good though it was the quietist i have known especially leading upto Christmas though will recommend it

We booked this restaurant after reading rave reviews on here , unfortunately it wasn't for us , the only positive was the lovely lad that served us. Very small place, tables extremely close together, felt like we were sat in someone's front room, food ok , nothing spectacular , door bell noise went off everytime food was ready which was annoying, sadly won't be returning

Banging night. Stumbled across a singer who was fantastic!!!

Very large portions great quality and reasonable priced

What a fantastic experience. Booked a table in advance with a very polite man called Jack Edwards. We arrived on time and were welcomed with open opens by a young lady called carol who was extremely busy but made us feel very welcome. The service was superb and the food was outstanding, special thanks to both Jack and carol who looked after us throughout our stay. Two lovely people who are a credit to their employers. We loved it and will be back.

Had a lovely time in this bar for our works Christmas do. Everyone enjoyed their meals. I loved the salt n pepper calamari. The staff were amazing and so friendly.

Chose this place for my lads 18th meal after having a quick Google for somewhere lively as we were visiting Liverpool for the weekend and not from the area. Had the mushrooms to start and the feta and spinach for main. Starter was OK, main was awful. Burnt rock hard cheese! Everyone else enjoyed their food. But what I felt was lacking food wise the place more than made up for in a great atmosphere. Really buzzing restaurant. Brilliant staff and lovely cocktails. Will visit again but just choose something different from the menu

Great food, absolutely spot on, but a bit cramped for space where we were sat and felt more like a pub. Really excellent ribs though.

Beautiful food and great service here, book now to avoid disappointment!!

First trip to liverpool and the manhattan was just along the street from where we stayed, absolutely fantastic night! Friendly staff and customers, food was amazing and the atmoshphere was electric, brillaint singer in on a friday and sunday night. Cannot fault the place.

Excellent evening. We booked very last minute (6 hours before!) for a table of 20 and the staff were fabulous and so accommodating with our booking. Live music was amazing and definitely played to the audience. Would highly recommend

Went with wife on 8th November 2023 for what we thought was a nice meal - how wrong was I . Place was empty and after getting a menu we had to wait a good while on a drink order . Any restaurant we have been asks for a drink order as they seat you - standard practise really . They presented us with a menu and then after 4 minutes told us to this is their words not mine " You need to order ASAP as the chef wants to go home ". Didn't even have time to read the full menu . In hindsight - this should have been our cue to depart forthwith but unfortunately we didn't as we thought it couldn't get worse but it did . VERY VERY RUDE AND VERY VERY UNPROFESSIONAL ATTITUDE TO PAYING CUSTOMERS 🤬🤬🤬🤬 The waiter brought out the starter and basically threw it on the table - and departed. My main came out - cabonara - and the sauce was basically the consistency of milk - so it was like eating breakfast cereal with a fork - not great at all . Taste was below average at best - left 90% of it in plate as was inedible plus they had 2 bits of garlic bread swilling about in the milky / soupy sauce . Bread wasnt edible so left bread. If it had of been fed as pigswill am sure the pigs would have turned their snouts up at it !!! Totally disgusting food - if you could call it that - and totally disgusting attitude and service from the staff who gave the vibe they couldn't be arsed even being there. Would have got better food and service in a 3rd world country !!! Not once - did any member of staff come down to our table to ask if everything was OK or if we needed anything - even though we were the only ones in the restaurant. Went to pay the bill at bar as no staff to be seen - then to top it off Barman / waiter / total waste of space person ( all the same person ) after being asked Can I pay the bill - he presents me with a card machine and amount to pay and no bill and wants me to hand over my card to him . What a plonker !! Had to ask him to see the bill to see what we were paying for and he was annoyed at this reasonable request . Then he has the audacity to ask about a tip !!! Only tip he deserved was tipped head first into the Mersey along with the rest of the staff for their poor food and poor service . WILL NEVER GO TO THIS CRAP ESTABLISHMENT AGAIN AND WILL BE WARNING OTHERS NOT TO ALSO - SURPRISED WE DIDNT GET FOOD POISOINING . THIS ESTABLISHMENT IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD SEE ON A GORDON RAMSEY KITCHEN NIGHTMARES PROGRAMME !!! DESERVES A ZERO OUT OF 5 SCORE !!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS !!! WENT TO MEET RESTAURANT NEXT NIGHT AND HAD A CRACKING MEAL AND SERVICE AND IS ONLY 2 MINUTE WALK AWAY FROM MANHATTAN BAR AND GRILL NIGHTMARE ESTABLISHMENT . MANHATTAN BAR AND GRILL DOESN'T DESERVE BEING CALLED A RESTAURANT AND DESERVES CLOSED DOWN FORTHWITH !!!

It has often been said that you should not judge a book by its cover. We had seen very good reviews about this restaurant and decided to book a table. When we got there we were startled because the place looked more like a noisy bar than a restaurant. But we still had to try the place. We ordered beef tenderloin with various vegetables, fries, and sauces. The food was simply excellent and the service very good. We will definitely be back on our next visit to Liverpool.

Visiting Liverpool for a few days came across this beautiful bar we visited on Wednesday the 8th November great offers on we had fajitas which where 2 for 1 they where amazing food and staff where amazing thank you manhattan bar and grill we will definitely be returning

Great food, great service and lovely ambiance this Friday lunchtime. Will certainly go again and highly recommend this place following our first visit.

Food was great aliitle slow but it was good

Had a lovely welcome, staff very friendly! Lovely food, one of the nicest burgers I've had, wife had the lamb shank stripped it to the bone, she really enjoyed it! Would recommend this place when visiting Liverpool, we'll certainly be coming back!

An amazing experience both food and drinks were outstanding and the staff were there to help anyway they could and ensure you had a laugh at the same time.

Go, go, go here. You won’t be disappointed. Absolutely amazing food, drink, staff, service and entertainment. Food was freshly cooked and beautifully presented. A vast selection of drinks to pick from. The staff are lovely and see to your every need. Very attentive and always smiling. The two singers they had on for the two we went were amazing. Lovely voices and got the crowd singing and dancing. Will definitely be back as we felt soo relaxed and very welcomed

Jack and luci were brilliant along with the food. Smashed the cocktails all night long with some live music for entertainment. Great place to visit

We were a party of 8 older ladies, out for an evening meal. The staff were very attentive without being intrusive. The menu was varied and the dishes were beautifully cooked. I had the garlic/lemon chicken skewer which was absolutely delicious. Our waitress, Shannon, was cheerful and helpful. She coped really well with a bunch of over-50 clowns.... we loved her. The music was quite loud but we were more than happy. I would highly recommend the Manhatten for any visit to Liverpool....

What a place 12 of us went Saturday night they couldn’t have been more accommodating all our meals came at once all hot and no complaints and delicious and to top it off they had a great singer on who came down to sing to us we had a brilliant night would recommend to anyone if your in Liverpool 👍

The owner and staff could not do enough for us lovely people the food was excellent and with 12 people to feed the food all came out together so none of us were waiting for our meals. There was a singer on while we were having our meal and he was excellent too. We all joined in and had a sing along. Stayed for a drink after in the bar where they had music on. Would definitely return.

We’re still here !!! 12 Brummies on a weekender. 1st time at this establishment & it won’t be the last. The food is excellent. The place is spotlessly clean. The staff are super friendly & helpful. Prices very reasonable. I would 100% recommend coming here to anyone. I’m sure we’ll be back !!

Amazing food. 12 friends and we felt very welcomed, service brilliant, live singer that was fantastic. Owner couldn’t go enough for us as we had 2 wheelchairs . Definitely come again.

Another brilliant night at the Manhattan. Food as always is amazing thanks to the fantastic chef. Shaun was superb a great singer and entertainer and outstanding customer service from the team. Highly recommended 10/10!!!

BEST FILLET STEAK I've ever had! Hands down no where else comes close! Family run always made to feel welcome, literally come here religiously everything on the menu is banging and both food and drinks reasonably priced! Brilliant atmosphere on Friday and Saturday nights aswell! Rare to find a place with such high quality food and drink and owners and staff that actually truly care about the customers!

Only had a drink this evening as we had already eaten. Was recommended to come here by Ryan from the station. And it was absolutely fantastic. Great drinks with quick service and very friendly staff! Will be returning on Thursday for some dinner!

Wow the food here is amazing!!! Served with an ice cold pint of peroni. I had the crispy chilli chicken which was sublime while my partner had the T-bone steak cooked medium rare which he absolutely loved. The staff couldn’t do enough, massive shout out to Carol and Shannon , give them both an immediate pay rise please!! Already booked my next visit Thank you team Manhattan bar and grill.

The quality of the food was poor. I ordered loaded fries and they were stone cold. The young girl that served us was polite and friendly, but the older lady was rude and unprofessional. We were made to feel very unwelcome. I would not recommend.

The perfect dining experience. Great food, lovely service very welcoming. Highly recommended

Amazing food and great friendly service

The atmosphere was a bit loud and scattered, however this was in part due to a birthday party being held in one area of the restaurant, and there being a football match on. The service wasn't terrible, but it was a bit vacant, and we weren't informed at any point we had to go to the bar to pay at the end of the meal, so were sat there waiting a while before we decided to go and ask ourselves. The food was decent, albeit nothing special.

Absolutely fabulous restaurant. I have to say it wasn’t what I was expecting first walking in, we’d booked online as it was advertised as a family restaurant, so was quite surprised to walk in to find a large, busy and rather loud cocktail bar with just a few small dining tables down a set of small stairs. We were about to walk out as we had 3 small children and a double pram and thought we’d made a mistake. We were immediately helped by a member of staff though who helped us fold up the pram which they stashed behind the bar, they helped us downstairs with the children and get seated. And the service was amazing. The waiter was hilarious and the food was out of this world. The tables could be a little bigger, we were a bit squashed in, that’s the only minor complaint though. Will definitely be back!!

The most amazing Sunday roast, and my fella is one fussy eater, he said it was one of the best we have had (I agree) The bar itself is a lovely setting, clean, with friendly staff. Can't recommend this place enough!

This is 2nd time visiting this amazing bar and restaurant! The staff are amazingly friendly and very helpful! On both times visiting we attended on a Tues and they have deals for each day of the week! Tues was steak half price and omg on...

Brilliant place atmosphere was electric with the live entertainment! food was really nice and friendly service. The owner came over and greeted us!

Just spent a lovely few hours at this bar Staff so welcoming nothing too much trouble Thank you for a lovely time def recommend food and cocktails very nice .

Absolutely great food and service. Been here a fair few times and it never disappoints. Tried the roast dinner for the first time last weekend and it was fantastic!!

The staff where awesome, very attentive and quick with getting seated, menus and drinks. Food was very hot when arrived at table. Large varsity of food options in the menu. Food was lovely as well and large portions and reasonable prices for what you get. Defo will visit when in the area again.

Great meal and a girl with a lovely voice singing live. Will definitely return

Came here for an evening meal with the family after heading into town to pick up a Click & Collect order in Liverpool One.. Was a great choice as the food was spot-on! Both the Mrs & the kids were happy with their meals. I...

Went here tonight for dinner with my boyfriend and it was amazing! The staff were all so friendly and helpful. The food was unbelievably tasty and came out really quickly!

We stopped by here by chance looking for somewhere to drink outside on our way back from the docks. All the staff inside were great, so polite and helpful. We happened to come during Happy Hour so enjoyed two cocktails for a tenner. The atmosphere outside was great with lot of people drinking and having a good time. Would 100% come again!

Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. Can defo recommend this place.

Love coming the Manhattan, just been again yesterday and food was absolutely delicious. Staff are always so friendly and welcoming and always willing to help you out. Lovely business would deffo recommend trying it out Entertainment on a weekend is top notch.

Lovely meal..really enjoyed my steak and my friend enjoyed the chicken..only one comment..had to ask for a steak knife..this should be presented with the steak...Nice atmosphere and staff are really friendly. Thankyou

Visiting from Reading and had the best night in Manhattan Bar on Saturday. Thanks to Jack and the team who were fabulous!! Fantastic food, even better cocktails the staff were incredible - nothing too much trouble and the lemoncello 🍋 was to die for!! Thank...

1.5 hours for a burger is a bit much

Brilliant experience, we went In for dinner on back holiday weekend. My partner had the mixed fajitas with a side of salt and pepper chips. I had the carbonara with a side of salt and pepper chips. The food was lovely! The drinks were also good and overall the price was reasonable. Staff were all friendly and helpful, somewhere I would recommend.

10/10…..tunes were banging, took me back a few years, great vibe. Got speaking to Layla and her brother Carl, with it being my birthday she insisted a drink on the house….unbelievably nice. Well worth a visit 👏👏👏
