Platzki in Manchester

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.

Great little place with friendly staff & tasty food

An absolutely wonderful meal! and wonderful service! Will be back

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

Lovely food, nice atmosphere, very kind and welcoming staff and service. Definitely will be returning!

Nice place , lovely atmosphere, nicely decorated. Good cocktails. Tasty starters , main meal kluski overcooked, and definitely all dishes much overpriced.

Superb traditional and authentic Polish dishes. We love visiting Poland and we were thrilled to find this little gem in the heart of Manchester. The staff are warm and friendly and there is a lovely relaxed and informal feel about this restaurant. It’s got a reasonable number of tables too with a nice spacious feel and a cute ‘garden’ room. We visited on a Friday evening in November 2024 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Excelentes platos tradicionales y auténticos polacos. Nos encanta visitar Polonia y nos encantó encontrar esta pequeña joya en el corazón de Manchester. El personal es cálido y amable y hay una sensación relajada e informal encantadora sobre este restaurante. También tiene un número razonable de mesas con un agradable ambiente espacioso y una linda sala de "jardín". Visitamos un viernes por la noche en noviembre de 2024 y disfrutamos mucho de la experiencia.

Very friendly staff, when going downstairs to the loos, you can pass the kitchen and see it all in action. A lovely atmosphere, had a great chat with one of the hosts about regional cuisine.

Delicious food and very nice service. Thank you :)

Some of the best Perogi I've had. Big plates, so bring an appetite. I had the duck, and it was delicious 😋

This was a great find as I walked from my hotel into the Manchester shopping district. The staff were really friendly and recommended dishes. I ended up going for the rarebit which was an excellent recommendation. The food was full of flavour and really high quality. The coffee was great too.

Not really a polish cuisine, more like polish food inspired food, i did like it

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.

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.

We were waiting around 25 minutes get served. I got a different drink from what I've ordered and the food took about 10 minutes to come. Food was overall good and filling.

Delicious Polish food 👌🏼 there is an amazing brunch menu, even my fussy son loved the pancakes! great atmosphere, lovely n cosy, I love the decor gave the authentic polish vibes 🇵🇱

Food was incredible, not the cheapest but 100% worth it

Excellent Polish food. Enjoyable service. The lady from the bar brings the great Polish spirit. Drinks and food are very good.

Super, super nice place. I ordered mushroom dumplings and tea with ginger and honey and I was delighted. A very polite and nice lady who offered to add more tea. The place has a great atmosphere, the music in the restaurant perfectly matches the decor. I recommend it wholeheartedly, if I come back to Manchester I will definitely go there again.

Visited PLATZKI on my birthday and it did not disappoint! Brilliant food, full of Polish flavours. Felt like home, smelt like home. Delicious, big portions and great service. 5/5 we'll be back whenever I'm home sick. Dziękuję za pyszny obiad ♥️

The pierogies and sandwiches are really great.

Nipped in for coffee and a cake and couldn't believe how lovely the staff were! The girl with green hair was really sweet and took extra care to ensure I had a good experience, even when the restaurant got busier. Would definitely come again!

The food was genuinely some of the best flavorful food I've eaten in a long time. Great atmosphere and really lovely staff. Worth every penny and I absolutely must go back again to try more of the menu which I'm told is updated often.

Absolutely loved it! Will definitely go back, I just wish you guys made basque cheescake instead of the traditional one 🥺

Fabulous and reasonable new lunch menu which delivers.

Interesting menu and tasty food. Friendly staff and reasonable prices. Herring starter and goulash for main course. Dont miss the platzki which are potato pancakes. If you fancy somewhere a little different this is a great choice. And they do great cocktails.

Excellent food and service, very friendly and always a lovely atmosphere.

A great place with strong coffee and delicious cheesecake. Wonderful place serving strong coffee and delicious cottage cheese cake.

Great place for dinner, delicious food and very friendly staff, quite expensive for portions but definitely best Polish food I've had in England and nearly as good as in home cooked by grandma:) will be back for sure! Worth to mention it's a dog friendly place :)

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.

Fantastic right across the board.

One of my favourite restaurants in Manchester, one of the few that I return to again and again. Delicious, hearty real Polish fare, and the owner/manager is very friendly and nice

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

Loved it My visit in Platzki was absolutely awesome Lovely costumer service. Great food. This restaurant has a really good vibe. I will visit it again next time I'm in Manchester

Lovely atmosphere and great food and service. Came here for lunch as we hadn’t visited for a while. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

What a wonderful restaurant. The food was amazing, really fresh, tasty and very generous portions. The ambience is lovely. We sat in ‘the garden’. I would recommend sharing main courses, the stuffed cabbage is absolutely delicious and a great addition to any of the meat dishes. The servings of meat are enough for two. I suggest the pork neck and stuffed cabbage as a great meal to share. And the staff were sweet and really friendly.

Great restaurant and lovely to try polish cuisine. The service was really welcoming and friendly and the food delicious

Tragedy. Nothing was what we wanted. The service, i.e. the waitress, was unpleasant. We just had to leave and eat somewhere else. 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...

Excellent food! Service was incredibly friendly and made the experience so much better! They cycle their menu every month so Im excited to see what Ill get next time i go

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

beautifully served, nice spin on Polish cuisine

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 😊

Very pleasant atmosphere, good service! The kitchen is great!!! Keep it up. Well done!👍👍👍 Dumplings, dumplings, Karkuvka, eggplants, zhurek, khachapuri - incredibly tasty!!!!! I recommend visiting Platzki❤️🍰❤️🍰❤️

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.

Sooo good! I've been here twice and everything is very high quality. Would absolutely recommend!

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

Excellent food. Nice homely atmosphere and service. Really generous portion sizes

Love coming here the food and atmosphere is fantastic as well as the chefs and hosts! Can’t wait to come back!

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.

The food is seriously good! It ticked all the boxes. Portion sizes are really good and quality was outstanding. The staff are very friendly and hospitable. 10/10 can't wait to visit again.

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

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.

Went in very early, had the brunch, the food was awesome and the staff were really nice and accommodating

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.

Amazing restaurant food was amazing and the service was great. Portion sizes were also really big :0 (and beautifully presented). 10/10. Will be back soon. Thanks!!♡

A beautiful place with a modern spin on traditional Polish cuisine! Many vegetarian options which can also be made vegan. Amazing drinks as well!

We happened upon this restaurant by chance, having seen the beautiful array of cakes and baked cheese cakes in the window. But once inside decided to have a full lunch. And what a feast we had. Absolutely amazing freshly prepared food++++ good vegetarian options. Helpful friendly staff. I could not recommend enough.

We felt very let down by this restaurant. We enjoyed the food but we had only just finished our starters when the main courses arrived - literally not a minute in between courses to relax and take time out. I had just finished my main course but my husband was still eating his when I was asked if I would like anything else. Dreadful service. At no point were we asked if the food was ok - which should be a basic level of service. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant and did consider withdrawing the 10% service charged which had been added to the bill.

The food was dry, tasteless, with poor portions. Too many tables for the size of the venue and the service was slower than you would expect.

Such a lovely place to eat and try polish cuisine! Dziękuję 💛

Very friendly stuff and amazing food! Had a really good time here!

This place is a must visit for anyone who likes Polish food. We came here on a Saturday, it was very busy and had a radiant atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and served you when they could. The food, my word the food was amazing. I’ve been to Poland and this food is like stepping back into Poland for a couple of hours. Food comes quite quick after you order and you know it’s good when there’s no conversation at the table, just heads down eating! One thing I would say however, there was an added service fee (which is 10%) which when you’re there as a couple it does add a unnecessary chunk onto your bill, I think it should be more of a choice instead of immediately added on. Thank you for a great meal and we would love to visit again :).

Our go to. Delivers every time on food, device and atmosphere. Superb.

We were there. Already before. And we stayed positive again. Surprise. The food was. Delicious. This. One of the best. Polish. Restaurants. Which ones I ate and not. There were few of them. . .everything was. And perfectly seasoned. It was worth it. Come. From Birmingham. Because you have provided for us again. Excellent. Moments. From again. We'll show up. Soon. And I recommend it. All who. They want. More than just that. Schnitzel.

I was there for my friend birthday party. Everything was nicely prepared and looked after. Cannot complained but suggested to anyone to organise birthdays there.

We went for a meal here a couple weeks ago and the experience was incredible! From the food to the service we could not fault anything! Our server was Trisha who was lovely and helped us with recommendations and Ana the manager on shift was also brilliant! Probably the best meal we’ve been for in Manchester

Went to Platzki to try Polish cuisine. The interiors were quite nice. We ordered the Rolada and Kul Bela (forgive me for my spelling, I’m forgetting the name but it contains aubergine stuffed with cheese and walnuts). The food was amazing and really fresh. It was just the two of us and we split the appetizer and the main between us and it went a long way! The only qualm I have is that we had to wait for a good 10-15 mins for our order to be taken and for our payment as well. Other than that I would recommend this restaurant.

Lovely, but a bit pricey. Really nice dishes, I would love to go back.

Very small and simple portions of food, nothing special. And too much expensive. The staff was pretty nice and kind people at least.

Incredible Polish food, would absolutely recommend

Excellent food and super nice service!

Excellent Polska food! My Babcia would have even loved it here, excellent food with traditional taste and style. Worth every penny, if you haven’t tried polish food before this is the place to go!

Came here for valentine's day to celebrate. It was a set menu so not the usual a la carte, and very reasonably priced. It was some of the best food I've had in the city, and of the classic Polish sort it's honestly quite hard to come by. The service was attentive, and the atmosphere is cosy but it never feels less than private. Absolutely cannot recommend enough.

Great service, great food, Mrs. Ania the best manager ever. I highly recommend it.

Love the place, good food, service and easy atmosphere. 😁

Second time here and both times on weekend of Manchester Marathon just a year apart. Asked in advance about bringing our dog and so pleased to say they are fully dog friendly which is such a breath of fresh air for a central Manc cafe restaurant. Staff were great - little slow at times on service but nothing major, it was all made up for with a bit of a laugh and a joke which was nice. Food was superb - we had their brunch menu and it was really delicious food. Finished off with some Polish cakes - just couldn’t say no. Really yummy again like everything else! So yep - very glad to have come back and to have had a great experience again. Must try and attend for standard dinner service as that menu looked very interesting.

We try our best to go elsewhere for variety’s sake every now and then but alas, we just cannot stay away whenever we’re in Manchester. Everything else pales in comparison. Platzki is easily one of the best restaurants we’ve ever visited, anywhere in the world. The food is delicious and varied — we’re in for a great surprise whenever the menu changes. The tea with rum is also a must. Can’t wait to be back.

I’ve wanted to try this place for so long and it was completely worth the wait. The food brought me so much joy and our server Zofia was so lovely and explained all the food to us and was very attentive. The food was completely amazing - simple and elegant but it still has that homemade feel. I’m currently planning my next visit.

This is a beautiful botanical restaurant/cafe in Manchester. We went there because we watched a YouTube where the Man City players ate Polish food there. I asked the staff if we could order the same food and he kindly confirmed that the kitchen could prepare them for us. Unfortunately, they were not served at the time, but we had other delicious dishes instead. I recommend trying the platzki (crispy potato pancakes) and zeberka (pork ribs)! The restaurant suggests ordering three dishes per person. Most of their dishes were small portions, but the soup with mashed potatoes and sausages was so large that I couldn't finish it all.

Tasty foods; super place, nice Staff.

Great dishes and drinks (the honey beer! 😳) but the table was so small we couldn’t get all the food at the same time. Will come back for sure

What an incredible place! The staff were genuinely nice and friendly, and the food (Platzki and pierogis) was lovely. A bit on the pricier side of course but worth it.

The Platzki Modern restaurant in Manchester is an absolute gastronomic gem. Their outstanding, traditional Easter dishes surprised us not only with their taste, but also with their refinement and presentation. It is difficult to describe our satisfaction because we lacked words to express their high level. The owners, excellent chefs, have created a unique atmosphere that makes you feel like you're at your grandma's for Christmas dinner. The restaurant's decor suited our tastes, and Mrs. Ania, the manager, was absolutely irreplaceable. Huge applause for the entire team! ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👌👌❤️❤️❤️ We will come back to you with pleasure 🌺🌺🏳️‍🌈

Me and a group of friends went for a meal at the best restaurant in Manchester. That restaurant is called Platzki. The food? Incredible. The staff? Phenomenal. The vibes? Impeccable. If I could eat here for the rest of my life I would. THANK YOU PLATZKI. 5 stars for EVERYTHING. Also, the birds tweeting in the bathroom is magical, made me feel like I was in a fairytale story. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Amazing food, friendly service, pierogi with pork neck to die for! Thank you X

Amazing place! Very delicious food, friendly staff and what a vibe being there! Definitely will be back during visiting Manchester. 200% recommended this place for everyone 😋

Fantastic food in a wonderful environment. Staff were lovely. Will be back!

Quantity and taste was great for the price. But we were charged a lot for packing the food home. Sadly, we had to pack it on your own and yet pay the hefty service charge.

We just had the most delicious, flavourful food at Platzki for an early dinner. The setting was lovely and intimate and the service was friendly and efficient. The pierogi were outstanding. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend!
