Delicious - Our Famous Corned Beef Hash! A beautiful, classic British pub with very interesting, original interior accents.

Food was great, the only gripe I had is how cold the place was felt like i was spending lunch time inside a fridge sorry to say that but the place itself is really ornate inside.

Fantastic Braised beef & mash with red wine gravy (Mrs T had spicy lamb pie). Very nice pint of Timothy Taylor's landord & house wine very pleasant. The ultimate comfort food & top service (by Dan) as well, not expensive either (£12 a plate). Very recommended.

We were looking for a good place for traditional British pub food and at MR THOMAS'S CHOP HOUSE we just found what we were after. The "Daily pie" (with onion) is delicious; fish and chips is also good quality. Unfortunately the selection of beers is commonplace but at the end of the day this historic pub is highly recommended.

Characteristic pub in the center of Manchester where you live a nice atmosphere and the staff is kind. I was there on Sunday, so the menu is different (Sunday roast). Both the food and the beers were excellent.

Very atmospheric location with beautiful period features. Not very well kept, unfortunately. The stairs and toilets are particularly shabby which is a real shame as the building is gorgeous. Staff were friendly and helpful but the poor state of repair really lets it down.

I must say the service and the atmosphere of this place is like no other. The staff, particularly a lovely individual named Xavier who was our server for the evening, were welcoming and polite. Now, on to the food. I had the steak and after indulging into the sweet beef cooked to the way god intended it, it felt like my taste buds got together in the tonsil meeting room and all gave each other a high five. I will 100% be returning for more delicious delicacies.

Used to be a Manchester institution with good hearty meals and filling portions. The food is now poor, the once grand Suet Pudding is now 1/4 of the size it used to be and the Scotch Egg starter miniscule. Presentation is bad too, small side plates for main course to try and hide the lack of food. I'm done with it for food after 30 years of enjoyment

Whilst a lovely building, it was cold. The door was left open, in January. The food was lovely. Homemade Sunday lunch was delicious. The ice cream dessert for £6 was served in a ramekin with 3 scoops of ice cream. Lovely ice cream but the scoops were tiny. The dark haired waitress was miserable. Didn’t once ask if everything was ok and struggled to thank us when we paid. Made to feel like we were an inconvenience by all the staff apart from one of them. To top it off a 13% service charge was added. It was not mentioned on presentation of the bill, although we noticed afterwards that it mentioned at the bottom of the menu that a discretionary service charge would be added. I guess we should have read the menu right to the bottom. From experience usually this is mentioned when the bill is given. We could have declined to pay but it wasn’t offered. Won’t be returning.

Food and service was good here. But, while the restaurant is set in great and unusual historical pub, the tiled walls and large open bar area make the restaurant too noisy and difficult fir chatover food, especially as the bar was heaving. The toilets downstairs need some attention, really scruffy and rather smelly.

Just a two night stay in Manchester and found this amazing pub through tiktok. The atmosphere was quite nice, both for drinks and for food, as the pub is split into two to cater for both. The food was great. Greatest pub food we've had in a while. The food was a bit costly. Came around 70 quid for two with starter and drink included, and a service fee. Otherwise, a definite must visit if you're visiting the Manchester city core.

I had a lovely Sunday roast here—perfectly cooked, flavourful, and exactly what you’d hope for in a rainy Sunday cozy. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. However, the service left something to be desired; it felt inattentive. Overall, a great place for food and ambiance, but the service could use some improvement

Had the traditional beef hash which was quite nice, my wife had the pork belly which was a bit over done. Service was pretty good, but over all the meals are quite poor value as they are on the expensive side for what you get, which is below average quality. The beer was good but a limited choice compared to others in Manchester. I'd say it needs to improve, the quirky setting is probably it's only real selling point at the moment.

Good restaurant with cooked dishes First part a counter for a drink then a restaurant where it is better to reserve. We ate there on a Saturday evening without any problem. A sign said arrive to eat before 8:30 p.m. Service a little long. Don't forget that you have to add the service for around $10 for 2. I recommend eating something other than fish and chips but it's also possible...

Food was OK, went for something English, but menu seemed limited in that respect, daily pie was African chicken I think 🤔. The restaurant area was cold, cutlery not so shiny, and 13% service charge added on at the end, no itemised bill provided when paying, so that had us trying to work things as nobody saw the small print. Probably wouldn't bother returning here to be honest.

This is a small bar with "posh" pub food. They have all the classic favourites like fish and chips or ham, egg and chips but all made very fancy. It's hard to explain without visiting but it's worth the trip and a new favourite spot for food. Service is amazing and they will take great care of you.

What an amazing place. I was hungry, we were walking past looking for somewhere but I wanted something a little more traditional as there are plenty of Italian and tapas style places but few traditional so we took a flyer with this and was not disappointed. My wife, who is not vegetarian, had blue cheese and mushroom pie. Which was so tasty. In the absence of a good shepherds pie I had a suet pudding stuffed with pulled brisket - amazing and certainly puts a lining one ones stomach. All washed down with a very nice large glass of tempranillo. Even got a larger table without a problem when I asked. Very nice friendly and excellent service in a very interesting atmosphere. We will come again

This place has been around for a long time (since 1867 to be exact). So they know what they're doing. The front section is actually a pretty ordinary pub section. A smattering of tables & ledges along the wall to rest your beer. We had a couple pints prior to our reservation time. It is just a few short steps to the restaurant proper at the back. It is a very attractive art nouveau inspired setting. Lovely tiles, well worn tables and a comfy feel. They currently have a terrific photo exhibit of well knoiw Mancunians (Sir Alex Feguson looks great !). We both had their daily pie with potatoes on the side. Solid and satisfying, just the way it should be. Good marks for the gravy. The fare is traditional, don't expect anything new fangled. Our server was polite & knowledgeable. Four glasses of wine, two mains & a service charge clocked in at 75 GBP which seemed quite reasonable. Stop in for a comfortable evening of beer, wine & a savoury pie.

Very nice pub, recommended for the place! The atmosphere is very nice, the place is divided into two zones - the pub zone and the zone where people eat. We ordered traditional pudding and veal according to a secret recipe, both dishes were decent, satisfying and at the same time had their own characteristics. For dessert we ordered traditional brownie with ice cream, it was very tasty! The design of the place is worth special attention, it is nice that there are candles at each table, the staff is also very nice!

Lovely food, it's pub food with a modern sophisticated twist, the steak was cooked exactly how I requested it and had been seasoned well, we ordered the crab cakes that were divine and had just the perfect amount of chilli. Staff are all very friendly and enthusiastic about what they were doing, 10/10 would go again. My only piece of advice is that there is a huge service charge (by northern standards) we recommend you do what we did and get them to remove it from your bill and then tip your server directly with cash as we highly doubt the staff see a penny of the "service charge" Other than that perfect restaurant 👍

This has to be one of the worst experiences we have had having built our expectations from previous reviews. Having asked for two different main courses and told twice that they had run out is totally unacceptable. The main menu dishes are limited in number anyway so to have two dishes not available is quite something. You would have thought that waiters would have been told to mention this when handing the menus out so as to avoid disappointment or prevent the customer from committing to stay.

100% recommend the Whitworth for its stunning cafe, beautiful galleries and excellent exhibitions. Set in a park, this place has it all. The glass walls and layout of the cafe really make you feel like you are eating outdoors. The exhibitions we saw were free to enter and brilliant (Women in Revolt and Malgorzata Mirga Tas). An added bonus was the Bobby Baker Edible Family mobile home outside - incredible to experience this recreated work - pure genius. Come for lunch and stay for the art. Or come for art and stay for some lunch. Either way it’s great. I will add that although we were here on a bank holiday weekend and the cafe was busy we only had to wait a five minutes for a table. Also there’s so many buses that will get you here.

This place is a hidden gem with its quirky, homely decor and cute terrace. Felt like I was on holiday. I ordered the BLT which was good, BUT I found three individual eye lashes scattered in and around the food. I politely mentioned to the waiter about the various hairs in my meal and he didn't seem overly shocked or apologetic. I thought they might at least offer a machine coffee or take the (optional) service charge off. That has been a pretty universal response to something as gross as multiple hairs in food.
