It wasn't perfect, it wasn't bad. It was good. Friendly stuff, the atmosphere is really good. Waited for our meal really too long, and even gulasz tasted lovely, it was cold. Overall, it was a nice one-time experience 🙂

Overall tasty, well presented food spoiled by bad service. Whilst the staff are polite, the service was very underwhelming and quite disappointing. We ordered three courses from the Early Dinner menu. One starter came out correct, however the soup was not the one we ordered (there were two options). It also came without bread, which we had to ask for and got charged for in the end. We only realised after leaving the restaurant that on the menu it says that the bread is included with the soup, meaning that we were actually overcharged which isn't acceptable. We then had to wait for our main course for 45 minutes, because our waiter forgot to let the kitchen know. They were nice when they came out, although my dish was lukeworm. The dessert was fantastic, only that I couldn't really enjoy it as much since we were a little pressed on time.

Appearance: 4/5 The restaurant is nicely decorated, there is plenty of space, but the tables are a bit too small and the toilet is next to the kitchen. Service: 3/5 I think there is a lack of coordination and staff training. The first waiter didn't know what they actually had on the menu, so he had to ask someone else. The dishes were served first, and the drinks arrived 5 minutes later. The manager or owner was too pushy, coming over from time to time and asking if we wanted to order more drinks. Food/Drinks: 4/5 The food was tasty, and the portions were adequate, but they could always be bigger. You have to pay extra for the addition of raw vegetables. The drinks and cocktails were fine. Price: 3/5 I think they are overpriced. For 2 main courses with drinks and a cocktail, you have to pay £90. Summary: 3,7/5 This is probably the only Polish restaurant in Manchester with good, expensive food and average service, which I can't fully recommend.

Delightful Polish Restaurant We recently had the pleasure of dining at this charming Polish restaurant, and we cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment we walked in, the friendly and attentive staff made us feel genuinely welcome. Their attention to detail was impressive, and they were particularly good at ensuring everything was just right, even down to spelling our names correctly on personalised menus—a thoughtful touch that did not go unnoticed. The food was an absolute delight. Each dish was beautifully presented, showcasing traditional Polish flavours with a modern twist. From hearty pierogi to succulent kielbasa, every bite was a celebration of authentic cuisine. The menu boasted a generous array of options, catering to all tastes and dietary requirements, which made choosing just one dish quite the challenge! The drinks menu was equally impressive, offering everything from traditional Polish vodkas to an extensive selection of wines, beers, and soft drinks. There was truly something for everyone. What really set this place apart was the relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Whether you're there for a cosy meal with family or a casual night out with friends, the ambiance strikes the perfect balance between warm and vibrant. Overall, this Polish restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience with excellent service, delicious food, and a welcoming vibe. We’ll definitely be returning and would encourage anyone looking for an authentic taste of Poland to visit—you won’t be disappointed!

Terminamos llamando por pura casualidad. El frente del restaurante es precioso y peculiar. Estábamos sentados en la extensión trasera del restaurante debido a cómo debe ser. Hacía un poco de frío, pero hicieron todo lo posible con los calentadores. El personal era muy amable y atento. No sabíamos qué esperar en términos de comida, pero el menú tenía mucha variedad, pero no demasiado que se abrumó. Cuando llegó la comida, estaba claro que estaba hecha de ingredientes frescos y con cuidado y atención. El pescado que tenía estaba cocinado a la perfección. Suculento y húmedo. Cada plato que comíamos estaba rebosante de sabor. ¡Gran pequeño lugar!

Failure. I'm surprised by the other comments. No anything for children on the menu. The waiter doesn't speak Polish. Menu not in Polish. Everything limited to three courses. LGBT flags everywhere. It has nothing to do with Polish tradition or cuisine at all.

It’s not really polish restaurant but restaurant that serves some polish food. Food is overpriced and portions small. Not as good as real polish restaurants that serve homemade polish food but unfortunately it’s the only one in Manchester. Polish food is not supposed to be fancy and trying to make it to be is a big fail in my opinion. Takes away its charm.

Two of us shared the pierogi and tomato noodle soup, followed by the sea bass and chicken skewer, which were flavoursome and made with good ingredients. We can’t fault the service nor the cleanliness, as all of the staff were very welcoming and helpful. We were disappointed by the cheesecakes, as they lacked flavour and were pretty dry. We would return but probably skip dessert.

A charming little restaurant with beautiful, wholesome, Polish food. The service was excellent too, the team were super friendly and very keen to chat! The food arrived promptly and everything was clearly freshly made and tasted delicious. We had starters and mains washed down with honey beer (yum!) and finished off with homemade Polish cakes. The portions were generous too. I would definitely go back, we had a great experience.

We dined a few weeks ago, a lovely waitress was advising us on the extras we could add to our meal, when all of a sudden, a senior employee interrupted our conversation visibly making the considerably younger waitress uncomfortable, putting his arm around her aggressively and in a condescending way. If only judging by the lovely waitress and the quality of the food, I'd rate this restaurant a five. Unfortunately, the rude and off-putting demeanour of the senior employee definitely soiled our experience.

We popped in on our way back from the Christmas market which was heavily overly priced and poor quality as always. Having spent nearly 15 years travelling across Poland, I can honestly say the food and drink was right up there.

I’ve visited Platzki multiple times, and as always, I cannot find a single fault. For starters, I had the Gruszka—a delightful combination of wine, pear, and blue cheese that was simply exquisite. For the main course, I chose the oven-baked salmon with spinach, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. As usual, the food was outstanding. The staff are friendly, attentive, and always happy to explain dishes that are unfamiliar to me. Highly recommended! M.

Mi marido había querido probar este restaurante durante un tiempo, así que reservé para su cumpleaños. Mesa para cinco. Mostrado al fondo del restaurante, hacía frío helado. Fue un "magro también". Si lo hubiéramos sabido, no lo habría reservado. Todos nos sentamos en nuestros abrigos, sin reconocimiento del personal de lo frío que hacía. Es una pena ya que la comida era preciosa, pero realmente no espero pagar más de £ 200 por una comida y estar helado y tener que sentarse en nuestros abrigos. V Parecía que había bares detrás del restaurante donde la música era tan alta, que no podíamos oírnos hablar, no hay culpa, pero era horrible! ¿Iría de nuevo, si estuviera sentado en el restaurante principal para dos, sí, de lo contrario absolutamente no. ¡Caro para una experiencia en la que tienes que sentarte congelando frío en tu abrigo!

Freezing cold, didn't take our coats off, no acknowledgement from anyone how cold it was. Food was really nice.

We come here every time we are in Manchester, every day (though last time we travelled on a Monday and discovered Platzki is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays; that seems to be a new development under new management). I’ve been seeing negative reviews but can’t understand what that’s about. The food is as excellent as ever, with spectacular new dishes (the duck cutlets and the pumpkin gnocchi are to die for). The raspberry vodka is also delicious. The team checked on us often and were friendly. While the team has changed under new management, the lovely lady at the bar still knows how to make the special tea with rum and orange that used to be on the menu but isn’t anymore. The tea is incredible and it’d be a shame if that team member left and no one knew how to make it anymore, so please put it back on the menu, guys! One thing that would make Platzki even better is if they you to offer rye bread with lard/butter for a starter/snack like you used to under old management. But overall Platzki is fantastic, wishing the team the absolute best for the future and hope you guys continue thriving. We will be back in a few weeks when we’re in Manchester again.

Booked for my mums birthday (my grandad is Polish). Unfortunately the area of the restaurant we were seated in was very cold. Despite requests to turn up the heater none of us were able to remove our coats for the entire meal. The other part of the restaurant was much warmer. Starters and drinks were excellent. We also really enjoyed the vodka shots. Unfortunately the mains really let the meal down. Very overpriced. The dumpling dish lacked flavour and I gave up after 3. Risotto was average at best. I wish we’d just had starters. Total for 4 people was over £180- don’t mind spending this for great food but unfortunately Mains and how cold the restaurant was really let this down.

Venimos aquí cada vez que estamos en Manchester, todos los días (aunque la última vez que viajamos un lunes y descubrimos que Platzki está cerrado los lunes y martes; eso parece ser un nuevo desarrollo bajo nueva gestión). He estado viendo críticas negativas, pero no puedo entender de qué se trata. La comida es tan excelente como siempre, con espectaculares platos nuevos (las chuletas de pato y los ñoquis de calabaza son para morirse). El vodka de frambuesa también es delicioso. El equipo nos revisó a menudo y fueron amables. Aunque el equipo ha cambiado bajo una nueva dirección, la encantadora señora del bar todavía sabe cómo hacer el té especial con ron y naranja que solía estar en el menú, pero ya no está. El té es increíble y sería una pena que ese miembro del equipo se fuera y ya nadie supiera cómo hacerlo, así que por favor, ¡volved a ponerlo en el menú, chicos! Una cosa que haría Platzki aún mejor es si le ofrecen pan de centeno con manteca de cerdo / mantequilla para un entrante / bocadillo como solía bajo la vieja administración. Pero en general Platzki es fantástico, deseando al equipo lo mejor para el futuro y espero que ustedes sigan prosperando. Volveremos en unas semanas cuando estemos en Manchester de nuevo.

Esta fue nuestra quinta visita a este restaurante. Una vez en su antigua ubicación y cuatro veces en la nueva. Antes de esta última visita todo había sido una crítica de cinco estrellas, ya que tuvimos una comida maravillosa y una gran noche. Esta última ocasión no fue tan buena. No se equivoquen, este es un restaurante encantador. El servicio es amable, el restaurante en sí hecho muy bien y el ambiente relajado. Pedimos dos platos principales junto con una ensalada y un par de cervezas. Nos sorprendió bastante que después de haber considerado este un restaurante a un precio razonable las albóndigas de pato y el porro con £ 22 y £ 23 que parece un montón de dinero. El primer problema menor fue que la comida tardó mucho en llegar. No hay problema, disfrutamos de nuestra cerveza y finalmente llegaron. Uno de los platos estaba caliente y el otro muy frío de hecho. Esto tenía que ser devuelto a la cocina, que nunca es bueno durante una comida con una persona comiendo y la otra esperando. Para ser justos, la comida era muy buena. Porciones abundantes con sabores sutiles y muy sabrosas. El retraso simplemente tomó el borde de las cosas y no nos molestamos en conseguir una botella de vino como el más barato era £ 32. Las cervezas de medio litro cuestan £ 6 cada una, así que de nuevo esto es un poco en el lado alto. Nos fuimos sintiéndonos decepcionados, lo que contrastaba completamente con nuestras visitas anteriores y espero que esta crítica constructiva ayude.

What initially drew me to Platzki were the negative reviews. To my pleasant surprise, the experience proved them wrong. Could I argue that the śledzik wasn't quite like my mum's? Or question whether the "Ukrainian Borshch" should contain meat, or if the day's special pierogi were truly traditional? Sure, but that would miss the point. The service was excellent, the food delicious, and the portions just right. I’ll definitely return next time I’m in Manchester, and I’d 100% recommend it to others.

I’ve missed Lithuanian food so went to closest one - Polish, and it’s such a shame that for 12£ you get one singular potato pancake. It’s not gourmet restaurant, so don’t try to be, because who would be trying potato pancakes as a gourmet dish? Also, waitress did not hear or forgot that I said we’d like 2, but when I saw how small that one pancake is I didn’t even say anything

Se espera algo mejor de las reseñas Llegó y parece un pequeño restaurante encantador. Reservamos esto para mis socios 30 cumpleaños ya que no llegamos a cenar en muchos restaurantes polacos. Fue agradable porque nos hablaban polaco e inglés, pero tan pronto como nos sentamos nos dijeron que había varios platos agotados, así que en última instancia era uno de los platos que mi pareja quería pedir. Lo cual no es lo mejor ya que esta es una cena de celebración. La camarera parecía amable, tardó un poco en pedir y donde nos sentamos era helado. Pero justo hasta el edificio supongo, no me gustaría estar allí cuando es pleno invierno. Pedimos un montón de entrantes, ya que nos encantó el aspecto de todos! Dijimos que varios pierogi estaban agotados, pedimos un plato y volvieron a nosotros tal vez 20 minutos después para decir que se habían quedado sin pan para el plato, así que tuvimos pasteles de patata en su lugar. Hubiera estado bien, pero se quemaron en el fondo. Los platos polacos inspirados estaban bien, pero me di cuenta de que estaba abrumado por los platos. Luego fuimos a pedir el postre, de nuevo solo un plato en stock, así que fuimos por él para compartir. Empecé a comer y luego mi pareja empezó a toser y sacó un pedazo grande de plástico. Lo cual supongo que no era de esperar cuando la camarera vino a disculparse. Ella nos ofreció algunos tragos de vodka como disculpa, pero no bebemos alcohol, así que fue un gesto inútil para nosotros. Le arruinó la velada y le dejó una sensación de agobio con un billete de 55 libras para empezar después de que tuvimos una mala experiencia.

Cool atmosphere The staff has an artificial smile only at the table, when the lady leaves, the face immediately doesn't look like that, I don't expect them to be happy all the time, but they could have kept the smile on at least longer. The food is so-so, definitely not adequate to the price, they thought too much about the flavors and it has nothing to do with Polish cuisine... If I had a taste for Polish cuisine, I would rather go to a Polish store or Lidl and cook it myself at home And they forgot the cutlery... Good tea, watermelon drink with mint, I also recommend it But I think that £60 could be spent on something better and eaten with pleasure.

I have had some lovely meals here in the past, but this wasn't one of them. I should have seen the signs, a Saturday evening and less than half full. No atmosphere. The menu was more limited than previously, and dull. The pork neck and cauliflower was just that, boring to eat after the first few bites and I'm struggling to see what a stuffed aubergine with pomegranate seeds is doing on a Polish menu. The kielbasa was very rich and intensely flavoured with a sauce/reduction which seemed to have gone too far. Only one variety of pierogi available and only one platzki dish (other than a side order of platzki). The food came out surprisingly slowly given how quiet the restaurant was. Overall a deeply disappointing experience. I am told that the menu is changing next week. I won't be back to see. I'll just try to remember the brilliant meals I've had here previously.

Service wasn’t good at all. We had to remind the waiter about our drinks, we had some bread for starters ( which was cold) and arrived shortly after main meal. The waiter came twice to collect my husband’s plate when he was still eating. Being Polish myself I was expecting very tasty food but pierogi were bland , bread cold ( when mentioned that to the waiter he said “yes it’s a bit cold” and brushed it off. We were going to have a dessert but didn’t want to risk more disappointment. The staff was friendly but it didn’t feel they were interested and passionate about what they do. And definitely overpriced!

Platzki is a fantastic Polish restaurant with food that’s truly worth the visit. Although the prices are slightly higher, the quality and taste of the dishes make it worthwhile. The menu is perfectly curated with a limited selection, making it easy to choose, and every dish feels carefully crafted. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who served with a smile. I’m looking forward to returning and trying more from their menu. On my visit, they also offered Ukrainian dumplings as a special, and I learned they had served Ukrainian dishes on Ukrainian Independence Day as special.

Very pleasant service when it comes to the girl with green highlights. She was very nice and smiling 🙂, but the boy was polite but as if he was working as a punishment 🤔. They took away empty dishes quickly and neatly. Waiting time for food is about 15 minutes. For an appetizer we had potato pancakes (not too salty for me), lard with bread and there was supposed to be cucumber, but we were served salad from a jar 😏 (the bread should be fresh and crispy, not too thick) the liver was tasty (but we ordered liver, not rolls with jam) Main course: pork neck with fritters, delicate meat (a little stringy) and a typical English pepper sauce. For dessert, cheesecake with cherry (very thick, less flour and it will be better) Generally speaking, Polish flavors include beer If you want to try a little bit taste of Polish food it is good place.

I rate it 3*, there is a nice atmosphere, but in my opinion the price is average in relation to the portion. A long waiting time for the waitress to come and give you the card, then come and take your order - in my opinion, this is a big minus - we waited quite a long time - the traffic was average - there were still a few empty tables. Prices are probably higher because it's in the city center. For someone who is hungry for Polish food, but in my opinion you can find something better nearby. The portions are definitely not for big hunger, but rather for trying Polish cuisine. Good cakes

It's a pity, because I always support Poles abroad, but this restaurant is a failure. I don't know what the food is like, but the service definitely needs to be replaced. You probably worked there as a punishment...

The food was very good, but we missed more traditional Polish food, for example classic broth or pork chop, a separate menu for children? It is not possible to order separately, for example, potatoes or pure rice? So if children eat traditional Polish food, they will not find anything for themselves there However, the service was very nice, helpful and understanding Delicious desserts, delicious elk goulash

We ordered dumplings today and what a treat it was! A humble Polish dumpling taken to the next level, comfort food that tasted like a sublime dish. The service was great and the atmosphere welcoming and homely. Loved it! And thank you 😊

This restaurant changed our entire perception towards Polish cuisine. In one word if i had to describe it, I would say BEAUTIFUL not only the food but every little thing. The decor, the staff, the hospitality is just too good. We had made a reservation for 8 and they had made sure we didn't have to wait even a minute after reaching there. These are the things we tried : BAKLAZAN - roasted aubergine/ chicken thighs and vegetable filling/ Polish Bursztyn hard cheese/tomato salad with sour creme. KARKOWKA - roasted pork neck/green peppercorn sauce/ cauliflower with crispy breadcrumbs. GOLABKI - cabbage leaf rolls filled with green vegetables and baked with double cream/ toasted bread Polish sourdough bread with herby olive oil. KIELBASA - baked smoked Polish sausage/ onions and tomato ragu PIEROGI - Polish classic dumplings! Pierogi of the day. KHACHAPURI - Mini Georgian deep pizza with blue cheese/ cheddar/ cottage cheese and egg yolk. FLORAL FIZZ - BLACK CHERRY VODKA, HOMEMADE LEMONADE, RASPBERRY SYRUP SASKA MARTINI - SASKA COFFEE AND BRANDY VODKA, CHERRY VODKA TOPPED WITH CREAM BIZON - ZUBROWKA VODKA, APPLE JUICE, FRESH MINT, LEMON PORZECZKA - BLACKCURRANT VODKA LIME, ELDERFLOWER TONIC We then tried their signature home made Polish Cheesecakes - Cherry & Chocolate which I would rate 3/5 The portion size is fair enough. Value for money I would rate 4/5. Drinks were amazing 5/5. Ambience 5/5. Service 5/5 Please note : if you are a vegetarian who doesn't eat eggs then there are only 2-3 veg dishes available on the menu. They do a brunch menu till 1 pm and the lunch menu starts from 1 pm onwards.

Very cosy place with typical delicious food from Poland. Unfortunately, it is a bit pricier than you would expect.

Hello. I walked to the restaurant for about 20 minutes because after our last visit we couldn't resist eating. Unfortunately we were disappointed!!! The menu has been changed, the food looked as if it had been kept in takeaway pans and then delivered, full of oil. There was a lot of spice that dominated the taste, it was simply impossible to eat. It was simply a waste of our time and that's it. I won't mention the prices. For seven tiny dumplings of £23, there was laughter in the room. We were always happy to go back there, but we won't go there again. It's a pity because the food was delicious before and until now. It's not a pity. I guess the boss changed because the food was unfortunately uneatable, and we left hungry. It's a pity bp, it was going to be bad and here's ZONK :( 😞 :( 😞

We checked out the menu from the street and saw we had just 10 minutes to use the brunch menu and so happy we did! I had the avocado and poached eggs on a spinach and courgette waffle and my friend had the rarebit (with mushrooms). We so enjoyed our brunch- delicious and interesting food served by staff who were very attentive. My filter coffee was good (and replenished) and my friend enjoyed her mint tea in a cute tea pot . The cafe has a good selection of cakes which looked delicious but we had eaten our fill. The staff were delightful and I think the toilet in the basement was delightful- prettily arranged with fresh flowers and birdsong!! As the chefs were also in the basement we said a quick hello and praised them for the food. The entire cafe has a lovely atmosphere from the decor to the staff. We will go again!

The food was amazing, but 4 stars for the service because initially the server forgot one of our mains but they apologized and brought us a small drink on the house! Amazing atmosphere. Will definitely come back.

This is a real rarity on the Manchester map. The success of the restaurant is to attract not only Poles, as evidenced by occupied tables that must be booked in advance. Some of the crew are Polish - so everyone will definitely get along there. You often hear about the interpenetration of flavors in cooking programs - I felt it literally when I tried these dishes. Each dish is majestically refined and beautifully presented like a work of art, and the waiting time is only 20-30 minutes. Someone may say that the prices are too high - but after eating dinner there, everyone will understand that it is a real masterpiece and once in a while you can afford something so outstanding. The king is sour rye soup - it's impossible to describe this wealth of flavors :-) I must also mention the wonderful service, nothing is left on the table, the guest feels special, taken care of, surrounded by wonderful decor, amazing smells and a beautiful smile. I am convinced that I will return there during my next trip to Manchester! Let's support our people <3

Lovely stop for a coffee and cake. We will definitely be back for more. 05/06/24 Came back for a midweek dinner after a late night at work and what a delight! We really felt like we were in their home. The staff were super helpful and welcoming. The dishes were delightful. We shared the pierogis and the sunflower seed and tomato on sourdough- the flavours in each dish were vibrant and mouthwatering and left us really excited for our main. We both had the Polish dumplings in a creamy sauce served with asparagus a real Spring time dish that had us both speechless. Definitely visit here to try how amazing Polish food is.

Probably the best experience you can have in Manchester. Have been several times and the service is consistently amazing. The food is incredibly delicious. Add on the vodka and the delightful staff and you have the atmosphere for a wonderful evening. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Solo he estado por un café los alimentos caros no les pagarían precios, así que tomé un café allí, fui a pagarlo, decía en el menú £ 2. 60 para pagar. Cuando el caballero labraba, era de 3 libras. 20 , cuando pregunté por qué dijo que cobran 60 peniques por la leche, me negué a pagar eso, así que se lo quitó, también es tarjeta solamente y personalmente prefiero pagar en efectivo, los cafés bien, pero hay lugares más baratos, bastante un gerente, ya sea cucharas por ejemplo así que tiendo a ir a esos lugares y aceptan efectivo a diferencia de Nordie así que para evitar ir allí.

Service, food presentation and atmosphere were great - especially on a sunny day like today - but the Sunday roast was incredibly disappointing. The potatoes were SO dry, cold and hard that you couldn’t put a fork through them, and the Yorkshire pudding was bland. The gravy didn’t taste of anything either. Hoping this was just an off day, but incredibly disappointing given the price tag you pay. The server was lovely but he also at no point asked us how the meal was. He left us to it once food was brought to our table, almost as if he knew food was lacking? As a local, this was a disappointment. Hoping it was just a one-off as it was busy.
