Saints & Scholars in Manchester

Great food, great atmosphere. Would come again

Great cozy pub. The beer is great, food is good and the staff is super friendly. We had a great time sitting outside at the terrace. Prices for food and drink are super fair. Looking forward to our next visit. Thank you!

Eggs Benedict; full English; Salmon Scrambler; Spinach Ricotta Canneloni - all fabulous. lovely local independent place; good range on menu; nice wine list; good value for money. visiting from overseas, will definitely be back

Went for a friends birthday food is ok a bit pricey and very salty. Staff very helpful.

Even though I was starving , the Eggs Benedict was so disappointing - the slightly uncooked bacon was poor quality and left uneaten , the eggs were hard , not runny , and the sauce was paltry . Additionally , I found the manager micro - aggressive and hostile with me for refusing her frankly audacious presumption of a 'standard ' 10 % service charge for this excuse of a meal - the experience left me unhappy . I won't return .

Great value for breakfast,staff very pleasant.

Underrated spot in Didsbury, would highly recommend

First time user - will use again the next time I'm in the area👍🥣🥗

Relaxed atmosphere and nice pub serving good food and drinks

Staff were super friendly and attentive! Came for breakfast and was very happy with both our orders. Unfortunately a table next to us was being extremely impatient but staff handled it very well and treated everyone with kindness. Will definitely be back! Also to note, their playlist is banging!

Amazing food and drinks really friendly and a lovely vibe

Great pub, fantastic atmosphere! Very friendly doorman! Vi was absolutely amazing, extremely hard working, competent, and welcoming!

We visited whilst walking around didsbury. We had brunch and it was delicious, great friendly welcome, cosy atmosphere and good menu choice. Would definitely return

Loved this place. We had brunch and the food was delicious. Nice welcome, good service and cosy atmosphere. We would definitely return.

Top tier. Amazing food at a super reasonable price (great portion size too!). Dog friendly. Can’t recommend enough! A++++

Can’t speak for inside but loved eating outside to people watch. Really interesting food it was very nice yes.

Great food and very good value - been here for years and is a Didsbury institution. Definitely go for breakfast!

Amazing place, amazing people and atmosphere, selection of wines is unbelievable, very friendly staff

Can't wait to go on the Piss again in there 4 of us had a mint time..

Love the dining experience here! The owner is adorable and interacts with guests just like a friendly neighbor 😆 We ordered Caesar salad and the fish of the day, and we really enjoyed the seasoning sauce with the sea bass! Paired with an IPA beer, it made for a delightful Saturday.

Wonderful friendly staff and absolutely beautiful food, huge range of food, especially as one of my friends is vegetarian. My first visit and can’t wait to go again very soon 😍

Popped into Saints & Scholars for dinner off the busy high street last Saturday with my wife and daughter. Friendly gentleman quickly got us a table. Drinks and food came promptly. I had the 100% Angus beef burger which was excellent.

I had brunch here. The scrambled egg and smoked salmon on toast. It was absolutely delicious. The service was good and the atmosphere was relaxing.

Went to today purely out of chance. Couldn’t get in another place but so glad we found this beauty! Prices are superb, food is excellent and the staff couldn’t be more helpful

Terrible Service with the excuse given “There is only two us, we are busy!” A little communication be fore it got to to the complaints stage, would have gone a long way with us. It used to be a great little place to eat but sadly not any more.

Beautiful food and friendly staff..Not sure a very young old gentleman managing the pub and personally asking is all OK...defo to visit again

Such a lovely relaxing place, I definetly recommend it.

Nice food and good prices. Staff are lovely and really like the decor. Been a few times now, consistent in food and service 😁

Just awful! I used to go here a lot so took my husband after telling him how nice it was but it was horrific! Dry burger with no sauce or cheese, overcooked steak and a waitress who clearly couldn't be bothered to be there.

Great breakfast, great service! Thank you!

Nice place. Good staff and really enjoyed the food. Venison pie was great.

Must be one of the nicest breakfasts around Manchester

Excellent full english breakfast brilliant staff we found this gem when the place we were going was closed.

Really disappointing, fish and chips were tasteless and soggy, the fish seemed wet on the inside and brunch was small portion. Staff were nice but service was bad, bit chaotic and forgot the mushy peas and drinks despite it being quiet. Nice outside area but dogs climbing on the seat cushions. Overall not a good experience sadly

Lovely setting and people. Food and drink a bit bland and dissapointing.

Great Breakfast...Great Service and A Great Waiter... Thanks!

The place is great, but the food I ordered was wrong and very salty. I asked for mayo a few times for my chips and never received it. Was also here a few weeks before. And found a large piece of what looked like carbon in my pasta dish

always come in Sunday nights for their Sunday roast and we love it. Amazing staff and lovely atmosphere!!

Saints and Scholars was a place me and my partner had wanted to go for a while… it is safe to say we will never go again and will make sure to tell all our friends and family to not go as well. It became aparent quite early on that the staff were all drunk (would not be surprised if it was more than alchohol too). They were falling around the place and spilt our very mediocre food when attempting to serve it. Obviously it’s Easter Weekend and they wanted to have a nice time themselves-fair enough. However, it accumulated in a situation where they were shouting and arguing with one another and made us feel really unsafe because their behaviour was becoming aggressive. We would have refused to pay but they made us so uncomfortable we wanted to leave as quickly and safely as possible. Terrible place, terrible staff and very average food. Although we may have caught them at an off-time on the tail end of the bank holiday, this experience really made us never want to go back.

Delicious Breakfast !! Great service. This is the second time we went for breakfast at Saints. We will definitely be back.

Fun and lively pub. Had a classic Sunday roast which was as good as you can expect.

Amazing breakfast! Very warm and friendly welcome, excelled service. Breakfast was very tasty and very reasonably priced. Can highly recommend and will certainly be returning!

First time in here, the building is a lovely untouched, brick work. Staff very friendly, food delicious. Toilets are upstairs, so not good for mobility issues. But otherwise loved it.

Walked in about 12ish lunch time, narrow entrance but spacious room inside. Nothing fancy but friendly staff. We had egg Benedict and Seafood Tagliatelle with some drinks, very reasonable price in this location. Food was about average. It’s not a posh pub but we had lovely experience here!

Food was delicious & hot, place was quirky could do with good dust over. Only let down was some food had gone to the wrong table & we watched the table inform staff of the mistake & they had ate some of the food from one of the side bowls they clearly informed the staff & he still served it to the table that originally ordered the food. Shocked, to say the least, as the table had been poking & moving the food around to be sure it was there ordered. This food should have been binned & remade for health and safety. For that reason, we wouldn't go back, unfortunately :(

It is a small establishment with a small manual. I had dinner with colleagues, the food was alright.

Amazing little gem. I'm a fussy eater meaning I like my food well cooked and HOT served on a warm plate. Sounds logical but many fall short. This place exceeds, lovely warm welcome, attentive friendly hosts and HOT well cooked lovely food. Thanks so much x we'll be regulars

Think it's changed hand but lost nothing still a gr8 place

Lovely place very friendly. The food was great.

Even short staffed, down to one person while we were there still a nice place to eat out. Food is still amazing and a big menu variety 😋

The worst coffee in Manchester and sour faced service. Menu is long but uninspired and as mentioned elsewhere the quality of food is sadly lacking.

Absolutely love this place. Food is so lovely

Just happened to walk past and decided to call in for lunch. Steak and Ale pie was lovely along with extremely hot coffee. Recommended

Always made welcome and enjoy the food as it's different from the standard restaurant.

This place used to be a winner for great food and drink. I don't know if its changed hands but it's really not what it used to be. The first thing that hits you as you walk in is the very strong smell of bleach which, I don't know about anybody else, certainly isn't what I want when I'm eating. The service is fine and friendly enough but the food just isn't great—like, it's not awful or anything but I want better than not-awful when I'm eating out, y'know? The menu is far too big in my opinion, better to have fewer dishes and do them well, I think. You can't even get a proper coffee which, sadly, seals it for me I'm afraid; I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon... Sorry, Saints and Scholars.

Super service-la terrace c'est un plus-excellent choix de boissons

Fast service and menu explained. Inside could do with a face-lift.

We used to go here alot for the breakfast. But each time we went we noticed the cleanliness was slipping. When I was served my milk for my tea in a small jug that had the remains of custard all on the inside from god knows when. That was the end. Cutlery generally dirty. Plates cups and teapots were badly chipped and dirty. Breakfast nowadays is hit and miss. I have had to exchange several glasses and cups as they still had lipstik marks on. Shame as it used to be so good.

Always tasty food. Independent. Deserves more support.

A regular place for us and always good. Quality prices and service are excellent. Superb!

Very extensive menu yet not one dish labelled vegan. The staff member we spoke to seemed knowledgeable about the menu though (although she did say the arancini are vegan which I very much doubt). She said I can have the veg fajitas and they'll leave out the sour cream. She offered to run to the shops to get some vegan cheese which was very sweet but not necessary. I don't mind not having vegan cheese but the dishes should be clearly labelled. The Thai green curry couldn't be made vegan as apparently there is dairy cream in it. In a Thai green curry?? That's very odd. Fajitas were nice. So to conclude, staff was friendly, food nice but menu needs sorting out as it's confusing.

Really like this relaxed atmosphere. Great food, good prices

One of my favourite places to visit for breakfast, good quality, good service and excellent environment. Very welcoming too.

Food was really good & good value, the hostess wasn't in synchronicity. Becareful the ruse on the front door is two specials for £16 which I declared this is a false advertising caveat emptor!!!

Really great bacon rolls, they dont skimp on the portions. Really like this place.

Amazing food every time we come here. Staff are lovely. Coffee is beaut! Eat here! 😀

Great place to stop in for a pint or two!

Came into S&S yesterday for lunch and it was delicious. Not only was the food amazing, the service was great too. The staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble.

Meat pie and chips and fish and chips amazing

Not a good experience at all the spinach and ricotta cannelloni well what can l say!!!!!!

Fajne miejsce dobre piwo luźna atmosfera :)

Gorgeous food & lovely atmosphere

Enjoyed a nice brunch here in the outdoor seating area,which is great for people watching. Nice quality food-and a great all day breakfast menu-which didn't harm my wallet too much. Staff were friendly and efficient. Definitely worth a visit.

Lovely atmosphere and great food. Excellent, friendly service. Gets very bust, so pick quiet days or early evenings. Recommended.

Our first visit, had a great time. Love craft beers & thoroughly enjoyed the IPA. Will definitely be returning

Great place staff amazing especially John and Joe xx thanks guys

A long established Didsbury restaurant, with nice food, friendly service, and outside seating in good weather.

Lovely little pub nestled in the middle of Didsbury village. The bar staff are extremely friendly, helpful, just classic small pub vibes. Will definitely be going back. If they do a pub quiz I'm there in a shot.

Great food (good portions too) at a reasonable price. I'd definitely go there again.

A unique experience. We nipped in after a family funeral for a drink and a wind-down and were quite taken aback at just how inebriated the solo barman was. I don't mean a bit merry, I mean absolutely plastered. All over the shop. I wouldn't mind so much but as we were sat at a table opposite I had to do my best to ignore his frequent shouting and random interjections. Not best place for a quiet family drink maybe...

Great atmosphere, drinks and staff. Dog friendly. Unfortunately, the food menu doesn't have many vegan options (nothing is labelled vegan). I feel like this should be revisited - the staff were knowledgeable about the menu though!

No complaints about meal or the service.

Nice selection of beers. Cool bar with nice staff

What a very good place for food and drinks the staff are brilliant and very welcoming. Get yourself in there for a very good social atmosphere and a wonderful selection of drinks 👏💯

Joe is an icon. Accommodated lots of us for many pints while all by himself !!! :))))) Service with a smile and more Rapid pint pouring - could be a feature at Beijing 2022 no lie, GB kit for joe please and a promotion. Any tips earned 4/02/2022 all for Joe thank you kindly Lots of love, UoM wolo xxxxxx (Real ones know) 💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛

A lovely relaxing atmosphere phere lovely staff and food 👍

Lovely food, friendly staff, quirky atmosphere, huge portions and very reasonable, love this place.

After years of going to this place I ordered an all day breakfast that included blackened burned toast and sausage so badly burned that it split. Clearly they don't care, but still charge a huge price for food I'd be too embarrassed to serve myself. Never going back.

After a long Sunday morning walk with our Dog, we dropped into here for a coffee. Lovely, Lavazza coffee, but most importantly lovely staff. They brought us a dog bowl of fresh water for our dog and also a free sausage for him!! Amazing. The service was exceptional, and 2 coffees were just £5. Great experience all round. We will be back.

Rustikk og koselig liten restaurant i Didsbury. Godt kjøkken!! Veldig hyggelig betjening gjorde også sitt til at vi fikk en fin kveld.

Great food great service good value.

You can order what you want when you want! Food is delicious excellent service by friendly staff

Food always great, friendly staff

Nice affordable food and friendly atmosphere 👌🏻

Very tasty food,nice atmosphere.Was able to eat outside in the September sunshine.Different menu to what we had seen on line,but plenty to choose from.Will definitly be going back.

Excellent service and good food. We've been visiting this place for a long time. The service and the food is still one of the best places to eat and drink.

Really excellent food, good service, friendly staff

Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Went on a Friday evening and the food was excellent. Watch out though, it can get really busy.

The Food is freshly cooked to order. Probably the nicest food in the village.The Staff are lovely and helpful. Has a very homely feel to it. 5 stars.❤💫
