Oxnoble Manchester in Manchester

Lovely pub with very nice staff and great food. Atmosphere is superb, I'd love to see you guys again, thanks for letting us have great times here!

The place stank of turpentine. One side of the bar was allocated to staff who had just finished work. They were really loudly having some misogynistic conversation. Have the Tate brothers bought Stonegate pubs? Had an Asahi and it had a metallic taste. The bar lady who served me was lovey though. A lot of work to be done.

Great pub, with lots of TVs to watch sports and over 10 different beers to try.

Met here for a gig (The Reytons) at Aviva Studios. The location was great, only a short walk and was packed with fellow fans also heading to the gig.

Food took long to come even though it wasn’t busy. Kids meals are poor, over fried chicken, burnt toast. English breakfast arrived barely warm. I wouldn’t go there again.

Hotel stay - lovely staff, hotel very clean and modern, no complaints there. As mentioned before, it is above the pub so it can be loud until it closes at around 11:30pm, so bare that in mind. Otherwise great stay!

Location brilliant, staff extremely friendly and professional .The room was really nice and spotlessly clean... would definitely book again

great boozer with decent rooms. Perfect for the gig we was going too at Aviva Studios

Don’t bother with the food. Ordered a chicken salad. It was dry chicken, tasted days old and like it had been left out for a while. Brown lettuce leaves. A few sun-dried tomatoes. Paid £15 for something worth a couple of quid at best. Onion rings, £5, basically a bag of Iceland ready-made onion rings. Garlic bread w cheese, £5.50, was definitely microwaved. It was soft and squishy even in the crust. My salad, garlic bread, and pint of beer cost £25! And it’s the worst food I’ve eaten out in Manchester for a long time.

Awful ! Do not go here for food I booked a table for 9 for Sunday Lunch and was told they didn’t do it! Despite it being in your website and an electronic poster on site !! I mentioned to this to a member of staff who replied “ we don’t deal with that “ So we decided to order off there standard menu, I went to order and was told that the kitchen couldn’t cope with the orders so your not taking orders, then another colleague came to our table and said we could! The first 2 meals I ordered wasn’t available due to not having the Ingredients! At that point we left ! I will not be returning I would offer no stars on this review if it was an option

Went for the sunday roast, were told there was no sunday roast. It was sunday. There was no roast. Once the disappointment behind us, we enjoyed a nice meal but payed more than what was written on the menu (we figured it out after we left)... the staff is nice and several vegetarian options available.

Loads of places to sit and good bevs. Menu is big with some decent options! Can't go wrong

Filthy beer (the lines aren't cleaned properly, or regularly) and a filthy attitude from the interim manager, Sarah, to those who complain. The pub is being sold. In normal times Stonegate were never the best of publicans but with the arrival of its latest manager (who's charged with managing the closure and to whom the concept of customer service appears to be a novelty), it appears to be plumbing new depths of incompetence in it's management team. As a regular of five years, I've given up and until the new owners take over I'm going elsewhere.

Stayed here this weekend in one of the rooms, great staff, very friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Definitely would stay here again!

Nice pub well located for the Museum of Science & Industry

Very expensive pints but nice atmospheric, 6.10 for a cask ale is a rip off and I also did get the cheapest pint which they said was Amstel at 5.30 I have drank many cask ales across Manchester and the UK but 6.10 for a cask ale was the most expensive cask ale I've ever purchased. Either that particular brewer is charging too much or the bars margin is way too high. I do not believe the bar is locked into a brewery as they had a range of different beers. So the bar sets whatever price they want on their pints. It was almost empty on new year's eve because the prices are too high. Get some cask ales in that are cheaper than the ones you've got. Either way the prices don't make sense. I'd like to return to the bar if they have some cash ales that are in the £4 area as that is average for a cask ale.

Amazing place. We were accommodated here during a football match. Beautiful traditional pub, excellent breakfast. Nice staff, rooms clean and very cozy. If we go to Manchester again, the choice of accommodation is clear👍. Thank you

Disappointing Service, But overall ok for just 1 night. We stayed at The Oxnoble between Christmas and New Year for one night in a family room. I called earlier in the day to confirm our booking for 2 adults and 1 child, and everything seemed in order. However, upon checking in around 4pm, we noticed the sofa bed hadn't been set up. When we approached the bar to inquire, we were told it was our responsibility to set it up ourselves, and the bedding was supposedly in the cupboard. When we couldn't find it, we returned to the bar, and a different staff member apologised and promised to bring it up in about 15 minutes. He explained that many housekeepers had time off for Christmas, and it had simply been missed. The family room itself was okay, but had a strange layout with a small hallway and two separate rooms. There was also a musty smell in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, though, and overall the room was decent. We were told breakfast was served from 7:30am to 12:00pm, so we came down at around 09:10 the next day, only to be informed that the chef wouldn’t be in for another 20 minutes. While it wasn’t a major issue for us since we weren't in a rush, we did wonder how guests arriving at 7:30am might feel. Staff seemed disinterested and unbothered, which was disappointing. When breakfast finally arrived, it was fine in terms of taste, though nothing special. Overall, our stay had its ups and downs. While the room was comfortable, the service left a lot to be desired. It seems like the hotel struggles with adequate staffing, especially during busy times like Christmas.

A kind of typical pub, nice atmosphere and friendly staff and people. [But that's Manchester 👍🏾] Castlefield also is interesting part, historical too.👀

Looked after 11 of us for Christmas meal. Dealt with in a friendly and professional manner with good food. Will call again

Lively pub,very busy especially when football is on. Great place to stay,comfy beds very clean rooms. Good English breakfast

Only stopped in for a drink this time and it was quiet just after lunch, but the staff were excellent and I know from past visits that the food is good and tasty.

Friendly, reasonable and cosy. A gem of a pub and always worth a visit when passing. Lovely open fires on making it feel snug and homely too.

Went in for breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff. Very good breakfast. Nice atmosphere with background music and morning TV. Stayed longer than intended and had another beer. Will definitely be back.

Found this gem while in Manchester for an event at Arriva Arena. A lovely pub with great atmosphere and a real fire.. lots of corners to have a cozy drink, or bigger spaces to enjoy lots of company. Only 6 mins from the venue ...a great place

The Oxnoble is a lovely little pub for drinks with friends/family. Many friendly staff work there. Chris recommended the steak which turned out to be delicious and one of the best I’ve ate in ages. Great customers service from everybody there. will definitely return as such a cosy, warming atmosphere and always made to feel welcome.

Great pub, great staff and service, thanks!

Nice pub with great food options and draft beers. The price was reasonable.

Had a excellent lunch time snack.

Owner looked at me like he wanted to chew my ear off . Very hostile .

My partner and I came here for lunch and the service was good, but unfortunately the food was disappointing. I paid £16 for two toasties. My partner had bacon with cheese, but I had it without cheese. The bacon tasted like the McDonald's bacon you get, but there was very little of it. The bread was very tough. The chips were ok. Overall, the food wasn't worth the price. We won't be returning to this place.

Great place, thanks Chris and Faith for a fab night

Stayed for the night and really really can't fault anything !

Chris and Faith were absolutely ace in dealing with a large booking that left them swamped. Super friendly and made it all work in the end. Thank you so much!

My mate and I popped in for a pint and it was my round. Two pints of real ale cost £12.20! Paid with a contactless card and the PDQ had a gratuity option. I declined as I was trying to grasp that I was paying London prices for beer in Manchester. I used the toilets (mens) and there was no soap as the dispenser was not even attached to the wall. We won't be coming back as the prices are far too expensive.

Nice choice of beers well cooked food

This is now a regular visit when I'm in Manchester. I was visiting at very short notice, so couldn't get a room, but still visited for the great food and friendly staff.

Always pop in here when I come into the city!🍻🥂

The Oxnoble is a fantastic pub with a great atmosphere. The food is absolutely delicious – I'd highly recommend the fish and chips. The staff are super friendly and welcoming, and they've got a brilliant selection of IPAs. I can't wait to go back, I spend most of my time there now!

What a lovely pub this is. Can't fault it, great food and lovely staff also. Will be back again.

Friendly pub vibes, great for first dates. Street seating for people watching and a great range of casks on tap.

We stayed for a couple of nights. At first, it looked nice. Had problems with heating. It rained a lot and didn't have anywhere to dry clothes. The ironing board had a leg broken. Condensation in bathroom even with extractor fan. King size bed good. If these problems were sorted, it would be a good place to stay. Not too far from the centre of Manchester. Pub was good. Had a burger could have been a little bigger.

Nice pub with a good atmosphere. Really nice service

Had a fantastic night for my friends birthday. Cherie, Faith & Tom behind the bar have been great. Looked after us all night and gave constant service with a smile :)

We had an amazing visit on busy Saturday night. Felt so looked after and people on the bar who we had a good chat with( Cherie, Faith and Tom). Will be back again next week!

Don't bother. If you want cold food and expensive drinks then this is right up your street. Food is served cold an it's dispointing. Walk 30 seconds down the road an go to Big Licks. At least it's cooked there and then. Don't expect much from the staff, unless you are a regular. As for atmosphere they have tvs playing the sports channel an music on, but I wouldn't call it an atmosphere. Better pubs serving food locally.

Came here and had an amazing time, shout out to Sam for making my experience! Real asset to the team

The first time in here and will definitely return. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, and drinks priced well.

It used to be a nice pub/restaurant and is now very generic. The staff were nice and helpful when the craft beer we wanted ran out and then when the replacement was off. Feels a bit wetherspoons like now, poor atmosphere with advertising screens and a generic pub menu. I wouldn't recommend making a special journey to go there

Good range of beers. Very good food. Good place for mixed groups, just walking distance from tge Deansgate/Castlefield transport hub. Staff are very friendly indeed. SEPTEMBER 2024 Still a very good pub with a good selection of real beer. Ideal for meeting up with my group of friends. Excellent staff

Nice pub to stop for a drink. We were in late so didn't see the food. Drink selection was vast and a decent price. The lads behind the bar worked hard all the time we were in there and were very nice.

I stopped for a beer after work. It was clean and tidy with a good atmosphere. Service was quick and the barman was super helpful when picking the IPA

Just came in for food and a drink. 6 of us. Very cold reception from the angry girl behind the bar. She ignored me standing there while she was moaning and swearing about the room availability to a guest who was trying to check in. Eventually, she came to my order and it felt like I was in her way. She slammed the drink on the counter and tipped half of it onto the bar.. when I asked for it to be filled up (a pint is a legal measure, not a suggestion!) it was met with contempt.. it was 'sort of' filled and returned to the bar to further spill half of the content. We have chosen to leave and not give them any more money, for food or anything else. ,#to the owner... Time to train your staff in how to speak to people.. or hire someone without a chip on their shoulder. This page shows the place to be busy.. it is wrong, it is now empty.

Had a burger. Borderline disgusting. Don’t understand what the fuss is about.

Over priced drinks for what is basically just a pub. Nothing special! £9.20. For a beer and a J2O!

Nice pint, happy staff, what more do you want

I used it for lunch in Manchester. The staff provided good service and gave us lots of information about Manchester.

Not usually one to leave a review but would like to say thankyou food was lovely thanks to the staff you were so welcoming made me feel like home good vibes all round and a superb choice of drinks I shall be back again soon big thanks guys

Very nice place, food was well cooked and service was terrific

Faith Faith Faith, that is what I have in this place and coincidentally what the person behind the bar who served us is called (Faith) welcome and inviting, understanding, attentive, kind, caring, noble, soft spoken and great banter and an excellent couple of cocktails made with the 241 deal. BOSSHH

Lovely pub. The staff were incredibly friendly especially Faith who went above and beyond when making our cocktails.

Friendly atmosphere, amazing staff, friendly chef

Food is very bland and over priced, the £7.50 lunch deal is a lie, you cant get more than a jacket spud for that, they then tried to charge me £17 for a wrap and a gin, pretty sure the chips were mccain oven chips, staff seemed moody, drinks order was wrong which I realised they charged me for a premium version I didnt ask for, best avoided except for basic pints.

Prices were different from the menu when we ordered, told that the free drink wasn't available till 1pm which isn't stated on menu.ordered a cheese and bacon toastie with dirty fries with bacon, spring onions and BBQ sauce.food came very quickly and was a small,rock hard toasted sandwich and plain chips, had to send it back to get what I actually paid for. Staff were kind of rude and I definitely won't be coming back.

came in for lunch and it was a really nice vibe / atmosphere! the service was amazing and food arrived quickly and perfectly done definitely will be back soon! id definitely recommend this little pub to anyone in manchester!

Kick out of seats that were not reserved

Watched the football here and it was full of wrong’uns and £7.20 a pint.

Just left because the staff were so horrible. Classic barkeep machismo of the highest order

If you want a real Manc pub, this is it. Visited after a Manics gig, and they were playing their music, which was great. To be honest, there were all sorts in there, but that made for a fab atmosphere. I'd definitely return.

Stayed over for the a weekend in Manchester. Busy pub with a good atmosphere. Friendly attentive staff. Room was comfortable clean and the bed was comfy. Great break fast in the morning. Have booked again for Hacienda classical next year!!

Staff were rude and inattentive, came for a pint and some food but left before ordering food as I was made to feel extremely unwelcome.

Horrible staff , aggressive interactions. Bullies behind bar, ableist and overcharging .

Horrible experience here. Bar staff are cruel. Malicious and take pleasure in overcharging. Avoid

Tom is the best bartender I've ever met, 10/10 for vibes and service. Will definitely be back

Great atmosphere stopped off for a drink whilst going to Castlefield Bowl Manchester for the Saw Doctors.

Great venue with a wide range of food and drink options. The staff were all very accommodating and went the extra mile to ensure me and my friends all had a good time. Will deffo return.

Absolutely fine chain pub though pints are expennnnsive for the experience and choice is a bit limited

Nice traditional pub venue in the heart of castlefield. Plenty of craft ales and drink options, service was quick and pleasant even though it was busy. Will definitely be heading back at some point.

Ordered the only vegan item on the menu and was really disappointed - random ingredients in a 'bombay' burger and doritos as a side? I nearly never write negetive reviews but I regret not going to wetherspoons instead, this felt severely below average, especially for it being over £15. Table was also filthy which did not add to the appeal of the place... I don't know about other food items offered, but not a great place to be a vegan I'm afraid :(

Great pint of Asahi, friendly welcoming staff and plenty of seating to watch the Euros

Scottish lad on the bar is awful

A nice pub just off Deansgate. Had a reasonable selection of draught beers.

Waiters were amazing but the chef was shocking, heard him shouting about how he was going to close the kitchen down, he missed off a few sides that we have not been compensated for. When he was asked to bring what was paid for out he then refused. He kept storming up and down the pub snarling at people. Only reason I have put down three stars and not one was because of the waiters.

Nice couple of pints. Good choice.

Food and service very good, Pub was very quiet due to it being early on a Monday lunch time so I can't really take points of for atmosphere. Looked to be my idea of a traditional English pub, would recommend.. Location is great, right beside the Science and Industry Museum.

Good food and not pricey. Cocktails were great too. We stayed in one of the rooms and had a lovely breakfast in to morning

OK tbf for a quick beer nothing special

Me and my buddy visited the pub when we were in the area. The only thing that beats their amazing beer selection is their staff. Love from Slovenia❤️

Great selection of beer, nice atmosphere, happy staff.

We only called in for 1 drink ended up having 5 each and a meal. The food was really nice also the bar man Tom was amazing polite and friendly would definitely recommend and will return

Great atmosphere, honeslty one of the best pubs in manchester, great staff, sion and faith were both great as well as the rest of the staff

Lovely place, breakfast was lovely and hot with a good service and friendly welcome

We stayed on a Friday night - £75 for the night which was reasonable. The room comes with tea, coffee, milk ect and a kettle - the towels were fresh and the room had black out curtains. Check out is 11am which is ideal 🙌🏽 and the bar downstairs has gorgeous live music 🎵 the bar uses the mixr loyalty scheme also.

Absolutely amazing place wonderful staff rooms fantastic definitely back again can’t beat it there

Only popped in for a wee. Really needed it. Lovely toilets and sink. Only spent a penny.

Stayed there in November 23. Heating went off. Rooms were good but not worth the money. 2 off the three stars are for the guy from the bar who tried to fix the heating but couldn’t succeed.

Went last night fish and chips fish brilliant chips so so. Go tonight ugh awful burnt burnt burnt

Had a great time in this pub food was one of the best pub meals I've had will be back

Lovely choice of beers across the board. Four cask ales, one cask cider, three or so keg beers, plus the usual wide selection of lagers and Guinness. Service great too. Food... pretty rubbish! I had a fish finger sandwich and it had just two fish fingers... neither of which had much fish in them. It took an age too. Just go for drinks. Great pub for that.

I've given five stars not because it's a 'fine dining' experience but because it was great at what it does which is serve great pub food at affordable prices in a clean environment with a nice range of beers all served by friendly staff. Nothing more to be said.
