MR Manakeesh in Manchester

I didn’t not receive my curly fries for this order. I would like a refund for the curly fries.

A plethora of traditional food. Great quality, great flavour, and for sure value for money!

I love it. I really recommend this place for manakeesh, Jordanian, Arabic, Tasty food, yummy 😋.

Restaurant has a nice design and atmospheric style however, food seemed to have lacked any intense flavour to make the place unique in comparison to an average shawarma takeaway.

Thought Id give this place a try. Service was slow and food was made at different times so the pide got cold and hard whilst waiting for the burger. The burger was four frozen patties put together instead of made fresh. Just had a few bites. Feel bad about wasting my money.

Lovely place, lovely service and amazing food. I have tried the lahma ajeen, kaftaa with eggs, manajish zaatar and cheese and the delicious tea with mint yumyumyumyum. This is authentic levant pastries with very high quality. I genuinely like this place. I would put a toilet+changing place for babies, prayer nook and take the music volume down!

I recently dined at this hidden gem restaurant and was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the food and service. The manakesh was a standout—perfectly baked, flavorful, and excellent value for the price. Their omelet with meat was hearty and satisfying, offering a great balance of flavors. The shawarma wrap was equally delicious, with tender, well-seasoned meat wrapped in soft bread. The falafel was incredibly fresh, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside, making it one of the best I’ve had. The salads were lovely, vibrant, and complemented the meal perfectly. The staff were friendly and attentive, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable. I also appreciated the well-thought-out kids’ menu, which provided a variety of options to satisfy younger palates. Prices across the menu were reasonable, making this spot a great choice for a family meal or casual outing. The only downside was the tricky parking situation, which can be a bit of a hassle. However, once you’re inside, the quality of the food and service more than makes up for it. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Middle Eastern-inspired dishes at great prices.

Great place. Very popular. Excellent manakeesh and falafel. Good prices

Great food at great prices.. Sat outside when the weather was good, service was faster than expected

I have been there more than 15 times looking for any food which is not mouth melting but I failed. The food is simply too good. Manakeesh is away delicious. Thank you

Really tasty food and really nice staff. Sorry I was not meant to put badge

Incredible manakish, both the toppings and the dough were really nice 10/10. Would've given it 5 stars if it wasn't for the extremely loud music, you could barely hear yourself.

I inquired at the reception whether the vine leaves were prepared fresh in the restaurant or sourced from cans. She assured me they were not from cans. However, upon opening them at home, we discovered they were indeed canned.

Seats are horrible, wood and sticky tables. I give it 0/10 Food is nice 7/10 Service the guys are nice. The store is a refrigerator. The air conditioner is above the head, and the chairs and table are made of lime wood with glue.

From time to time I visit Mr. Manakish. The food is always delicious and fresh. The pastries are delicious, yum yum, but they lack drinks. They have nothing except tea, which in my opinion is not good and needs improvement. 🌺💖

I received the order incomplete and I paid the full amount. Where is the Coke that I ordered with the burger?

One of the best arabic food in the UK, highly recommended

They are amazing everytime I got hey treat me with comfort and kindness

Wow this was amazing. I order the grilled chicken burger and it was spectacular. It came with melted cheese, lettuce, pickles and of course the chicken. As shown in the picture it was seasoned with a secret seasoning and wow this burger was one of the best I’ve ever had!

Food is as always amazing. Service depends on who is behind the counter. Prices used to be reasonable but now leans on the pricey side.

You can't ignore the rich flavour of their Lebanese Mankosha, they kept the real delicious flavour of the real Lebanese street food which is iconic to have it after being so far away from home

The lamb manaeesh were amazing. Great service. Clean. Fast preparation of food. Thank you for a wonderful breakfast.

It was very tasty food. Highly recommend.

Absolutely banging manakish, never tried it before but been back 3 times this week!

Turkish deserts are unique, little too sweet for me.

I was I shocked for girl work in front she’s so rude And she don’t have any good Mood for the customer why ? Data I been 04/02/2024 time 10:24 I’m in the morning

Great, I wish them continued success

The manakish is amazing and delicious

Amazing food with excellent service from Elaine . Love this place.

Now I held back giving a review to give them a chance in hope I didn’t catch them on a bad day but after 5th visit there im still experiencing the same problem First of all food is good but it’s not consistent, it’s like a lucky dip if the person who’s making it is having a good day or not Secondly their customer service is shocking, the young girl who’s taken the order seems like she’s always in a mood, no eye contact and gives out negative tension if you change your mind while ordering, manners don’t cost nothing. In my 5 visits I have never felt welcomed there! Maybe it’s an Arab thing! I might try wear a blond wig and blue contact lens then maybe I get a smile back from the staff there Next door mr kunafa had the same problem but eventually they managed to fix it, you get welcoming and looked after by the young men their In mr kunafa there is a middle age man who is there sometimes, he has the most serious face ever, he looks like the manager or something A massage to you bro! Crack a smile mate

One of the best places in Manchester to eat.

The best Knafah in town! £14 for a large portion, so worth it. Tasty, fresh and moreish! 100% recommend for authentic sweets and treats

Said ready in 20 mins. Took 50! Hardly any Za’atar on the supposed Za’atar Manakeesh. The guys are friendly and nice seating area. Very loud music!

Best thing is that this is located next to Mr. Knafah. Pro's: - Great starters - Very fair prices - Food arrived quickly Con's: - Customer service is severely lacking by the french-arab girl - train her! - Limited seating on benches - add cushions! Suggestion: Focus on customer service and best products e.g. meze and grilled food.

Delicious Syrian cuisine. Aromatic food!!

Authentic midwestern taste, delicious pasties, reasonable prices.

Came in for the first time, tried the manakeesh which were very nice Also, Mohammad the gentleman who works there made the ambience very welcoming and friendly, he offered the best service super helpful on all levels. Very happy would definitely recommend ☺️

Excellent food at a reasonable price

Absolutely heavenly manakeesh !!!! Kind and friendly service . A very relaxed and family friendly atmosphere .

Good service by the lady on the counter. Waiting time was around 15 mins which was acceptable for midday on a Friday. Must say I was a little disappointed with the chicken shawarma I ordered. The chicken itself was tasty and cooked well, however there was not enough kick in terms of additional flavour or spice. The only salad in the shawarma was pickled gherkins, which is where the main disappointment came from.

Superb food with reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

We bought Manakeesh and paid £20.50 no one could eat the dough was so dry like if you are eating a plastic no tease they don’t even deserve 1 star, will never buy from this shop again.

I have had one of the best desserts of my life here , their dessert’s especially knafah is absolutely delicious and mouthwatering . We also had manakeesh and chicken shawarma which was amazing as well .

It's being in heaven eating their food

This place reminds me of time in dubai, the food and atmosphere

This place is about 1.5 hour walk from my place and I regularly do this walk twice a month just to have their hummus and pita all for just £5! Yes you read that right , £5!!! Reckon this is by far easily , one of the best hummus I have had in my time. Starting from the texture that entices your eyes , to the olive oil gently caressing the hummus and the tahini sort of reminding you of its presence with an aftertaste is a match made in heaven , bursting in your mouth , leaving an orgasm in your palette. If you’re in dickenson road , you know where to go now :)

*Halal* The wraps are Deh-le-ceous. Especially the fried chicken wrap. The shawarma quite not right and is drier than the Sahara Desert. Their curly fries are my all-time favourite and I must have one serving of curvy fries a week coz it's soo good. The jalapeno poppers are really good too. The staff is nice but the restaurant is super dark and sad. It also takes about 20 mins for the order to be completed so it might be wise to just order ahead and pick up later.

Coming here since 2019. Always great food and friendly staff. One of the best arab restaurants in Manchester.

VERY BAD EXPERIENCE We went for eat in and got there at 8:15pm were told to order quickly as they will close the kitchen at 8 30pm she tried her best for us not to order and leave but we still rushed to order as the kids were very hungry. The food was bland and over priced, masala chicken was dry, pizzas were nothing special either. While we were eating was told to hurry up as they need to close. This place is not the same as it once used to be. Avoid and don't waste your money.

Such a great place With great staff, the food was amazing, highly recommended, Love Falafel wrap 👌

المطعم سئ جدآ وغير نظيف حيث طلبت اليوم فطور شاورما دجاج وحصلت فيه لصق جروح وانصح بعدم الشراء منه لعدم وجود النظافة 👎

Brilliant. Go for the manakeesh. Zatar.

Fantastic The employee she was Helpful

First time in this place and definitely not the last ❤️it taste like mom’s pastries back home Wow !

It was a great experience for the first time Food was good and very kindly and politely staff Highly recommend

Very bad experience I'm not recommending this restaurant. I'm not saying anything but I can say I never go back again the food was not fresh terrible and the chips look at the chips

The service Absolutely disaster , they made mistake with my order and let me wait for over 30 minutes to continue other orders. The service is bad. There was a mistake in my order, and they made me wait for more than half an hour. The problem is that Mr. Manakish goes to you and they make you feel that you are charging from them, not buying.

The service Absolutely disaster , they made mistake with my order and let me wait for over 30 minutes to continue other orders. الخدمة سيئة صار في خطأ في طلبيتي وخلوني انتظر اكثر من نص ساعه ، المشكله انه تروح مستر مناقيش ويخلوك تحس انك عم تشحد من عندهم مش عم تشتري

Definitely the place for traditional Palestinian food. The girls over the counter are professional with a friendly faces.

Very good food and so much tasty.. Big time recommended

The best Arabic sweets in the UK

Authentic Lebanese street food!

Had amazing lunch today !! From customer service to the food was so good !! Specially the lady with the Palestinian lanyard so kind and and helpful … just made the experience 10 times better Highly recommended

Great mediterranean fast food with friendly and fast service.

The food here is addictive . Very yummy, and you will leave with bags full of dates, cakes, all stuff that is ok in small portions. Staff are lovely and helpful.

So delicious deserve more then 5 stars

Good and fresh food, however the receptionist a bit toxic and rude

Marvellous Mr Manakeesh! Amazing food. Always made fresh. Staff is always friendly. Bakery stuff sells out quickly so go early 10am.

حلويات ومناقيش غاية في الجودة، ووجوه مرحبا غاية في اللطافة وبالأخص الأخ أبو قيس المحترم، ويكفي أن نقول: إننا نذهب إليهم من ليفربول كل فينة وأخرى رغبة في تذوق أطايبهم.

Excellent food that are at such a affordable price, really would recommend people to go here

Tbh this restaurant don’t not even deserve a star because of the order i have received today🤣. The food was so dry and received it very cold it wasn’t nice at all, i didn't expect it to taste like that. when i got the order it was missing something so i had to wait a lot more to receive the rest of the order. Never getting anything food from here again 👎

Best breakfast in Manchester 😍😍

The worse lamb shwarma ever had.

I just call on the phone they put me in holder, put the phone down that’s not nice it is not respectful thank you, and never again

طلبت اكل على التلفون وقالي 10 دقايق ولم وصلت المطعم مو عاملين حته الاوردر تبعي ناسينه وهي مش اول امره اتمنى الاستاف ينتبه شوي لان هي قاعد تصير اكثر من مره وشكرا

Very friendly staff and great taste of sweets

Very expensive for what it is but authentic middle eastern food.

Eat we add and excellent service

It was very tasty and the staff very friendly

If the weather is nice ,nice to sit outdoor, the food is good ,it's better if it didn't serve as one time use plate or take away box, this is more like fast food of Mediterranean dishes, and suit order for food delivering.

Not professional, the manakeeah doesn't taste good. Not recommended.

Love coming to this place whenever we are in Manchester for a quick bite to eat. You can sit outside when the weather is nice & enjoy their delicious food as there is seating directly outside. As the review says 5 stars all around! From the food variety, to the pricing, to the service!

Having spent half my life in Middle East and well aware of authentic manakeesh, this is the most closest to the real middle eastern taste i have had in UK. The dough is spot on and tastes are perfect. They ll have a regular customer now.

The best falafel wrap and hommos I 've ever had in Manchester..

Very good food... But the tables is always sticky

Nice place to sit with family (inside & outside) to have Breakfast, Lunch and dinner!!!

the customer service is the worst I have ever had, the lady with the long black hair has the worst attitude towards customers I have ever seen. food is good.

Girls provide great service to all customers without any discrimination.

Beautiful arabic food cosy place

مررره حلو 👌🏼 انصح فيه المناقيش جداً لذيذه ماجربنا البرقر و الشاورما فيه مشروبات غازيه - لبن - شاهي جلساته الداخليه ٥ طاولات بس وفيه خارجي

The freshest managish i ever eat in Manchester

Really good food. Service was quick as well and the portion’s were big. Lovely people.

Delicious food. Reasonable price

I had a flafel wrap from there. Loved it. The flat bread was toasted and it had rhe perfect amount of filling

Very bad experience, very bad service, very poor food presentation, food in very small plastic plates, tea arrived after finishing food , hair inside the cup of tea , table is sticky "disgusting ", nothing beside the food, no tomato no pickels, just a little bit of olives as shown in pictures, we came here many times , the service was not like this , never again.

The food so nice and cheep for the quality. Staff so cooperative and friendly. The environment so passionate reminds me of our culture back home. Only get upset from their too loud music which push me leaving the restaurant with headache. I spoke about this but no listener.

Authentic, levant manaeesh. Well we only had to go to Manchester to get some. For those who aren’t in the know, in the middle east(mainly lebanon) we have these pizza like pastries for breakfast. Typical toppings are usually zaatar(a thyme, sesame and olive oil mix), cheese(cheese of choice? Akawi, mozzarella’s saltier breathren) or lahmi bi Ajeen( direct translation, meat in bread, a spicy lamb mince that’s smothered on top, originally found at Turkish or Armenian joints). We tried my favourites, zaatar and cheese and a lahmi bi ajeen with the addition of muhamura(a spicy red paste to really double down on the spice). I felt like I was zapped back to lebanon where I spent a few years chowing down on these on a daily basis. I find that when I stumble on to a place that makes manaeesh here, the dough usually thick, not particularly flavourful, toppings aren’t the real deal and extortionately priced(I did say they’re pizzas, but you’re meant to eat several, like a greggs in it?). The lady who served us was very passionate too, telling us how much she loves her job and customers. It didn’t feel like a business and that really seals the deal when you want to find that right place. Highly recommend, make sure to get the choices picked up above.

The best food I’ve ever eaten in UK, the staff is amazing I strongly recommend it

it’s so delicious and I can’t describe how delicious it’s

مطعم أكثر من رائع خدمة سريعة و ممتازة
