My recent dining experience was delightful, marked by a perfect balance of flavors. The dishes were well-prepared, with each bite offering a burst of fresh, vibrant tastes. The presentation was thoughtful, and the ambiance of the restaurant added to the overall enjoyment. Service was attentive but unobtrusive, making the evening feel relaxed and effortless. A memorable experience that left me looking forward to the next visit.

Visited to try the new Sunday fixed price menu and we really enjoyed it Highly recommend a visit and book if going at weekend as it gets very busy but that's because the food is so good. Very lucky to be able to walk here but well worth a drive or taxi fare, given the food is excellent and a good choice of alcoholic drinks - non drinkers also catered for. Good for family dining as well as smaller parties given there was only two of us! Thank you so much for a lovely evening.

I can’t recommend Stretford Canteen highly enough. It’s got a lovely, relaxed atmosphere, great service and the food is absolutely delicious. Each plate was packed with flavour. The mushrooms and potato pave, tonato farcie and frangipane tart were particular highlights. I can’t wait for a return visit.

Stretford Canteen is my favourite restaurant in the area. The food is no-fuss fine dining and is fantastic value for money for the quality of cooking and tastiness of dishes. Absolutely a must visit on Sunday to try the fixed-price menu at £25 for 3 courses. The brunch menu is delicious, with great coffee to accompany it. We now call ourselves regulars and always look forward to our visits!

I pass by every day on my way to work, and I’ve been so keen to try the food. I called to ask if they’re dog friendly which I was told that they aren’t after 5pm (can’t say I understand why). The staff member I spoke to seemed very not willing to have a conversation with me, even less willing to entertain the idea of asking about whether there is any flex on their ‘no dogs after 5pm’ policy. FYI our dog is an extremely well behaved tiny [5kg] rescue (with terrible separation anxiety). It’s a shame, hopefully one day they review this policy and I can give it a try one evening!

We come here a lot and the food is always different but still amazing. It is a lovely place to be and the service is always very friendly. As for the atmosphere-it is beautiful. My favourite has to be the delightful, garlicky mushroom on sourdough with roasted tomatoes put to the side or the sweet, creamyness of the french toast. Whatever you pick you will put your taste buds to heaven.☆☆☆☆☆ By Emmeline age 10

Oops gave these guys a bad review earlier in error, so time to correct. Came here the other week as the place we planned to go to had no food at 5:30pm. They managed to seat the two of us and we had a fantastic meal from a really varied selection of sharing dishes. The music was great (I really want your play list). Will definitely come back soon. Sorry for the earlier duff review, blame google and me getting my names mixed up!

Great menu of seasonal small plates. Everything we ordered was delicious. Particularly noted the use of the same locally sourced seasonal ingredients in different applications throughout the menu that really brought everything together. Nice casual atmosphere inside and the staff were very attentive with a much appreciated dry humour to boot. Only shame for me is that I have to drive to stretford. Can you open in the heatons please? We need you.

Bit underwhelmed considering the hype. Food was decent though if you're planning to share and pick a selection of dishes you need to really like potato! I had the steak frites - steak was wonderful. Beautifully cooked and tender as you like. Accompanying peppercorn sauce was lovely. What brought it down was the fries which were oversalted to the point of being overwhelming. A good range of desserts and we enjoyed a choux bun and frangipane tart. Very tasty.

We were very excited to experience the food at Stretford canteen given the rav reviews, we chose the restaurant instead of Street Urchin in Ancoats my sons 30th birthday, we were disappointed to be regretting our choice. The flavour of the food was good however the quality and quantity didn’t meet our expectations, the short rib was exceptionally fatty so you couldn’t eat much of it and we ended up having to order more to feel satisfied. The accompanying purées and vegetables weren’t enough for the men in our party of five. I was also disappointed by the texture of the choices bun and the amount of crème patisseries The bill for five was £288 that’s a lot of money for us, we were hoping for some special and we were also rushed out of the restaurant and I wasn’t advised there was a time on the table. Sadly the restaurant didn’t live up to the hype. We won’t be returning.

Really great atmosphere and service - I was slightly let down by the food as the menu wasn’t as varied as I would have liked. None of the food was bad, but also it wasn’t great either. For the price I was expecting higher quality dishes or something more adventurous I appreciate the menu may change here and we didn’t get to try any of the specials so I would be happy to try it again to try different dishes

We had a fantastic evening at Stretford Canteen. As residents of Stretford for 20 years it's so exciting to be able to have such good quality food within walking distance of home. We had been meaning to come for a few weeks and it really didn't disappoint. They have got great food and friendly staff in a good atmosphere and we'll definitely be back! We have just revisited tonight and with a different menu we had a great meal which worked well for my wife who is a pescetarian and really lovely flavours. It's still good value for the quality of the food and very busy Friday and Saturday nights so worth visiting earlier in the week.

A great neighbourhood bistro. We’ve had a few visits now and our most recent this week was spot on again, great dishes and a forever changing menu. Amazing quality and therefore great value for money. Staff are kind & knowledgable. The meal is always well paced as the food arrives ‘as & when’ but it feels like they control this very well. I’d put this over other ‘small plate’ style places in town. We are relatively local in old Trafford but everyone should venture out of the city for this, it will not disappoint.

Friendly but massively overpriced and a strange eating experience. Each mini dish arrives separately 'for sharing'. So 4 people share a beetroot. Then 10 minutes later 4 people share a mini cheese pie, etc. Veg (3 carrots between 4, one strangely black) arrive in between. 6 new potatoes arrive last. Drink absurdly overpriced and a Weiss beer (£6 a can 😂) described by waitress as a lager. A single pear £6.50 😂😂. The beetroot, bless it, was exquisite, and a kale leaf to die for, but we left very hungry and £100 worse off. A real disappointment as we wanted to support a local initiative.

Georgia is the perfect host for this happy place. Her specialty is serving young children, the elderly and everyone in between. I tried the vegan breakfast. They were out of butter substitute, so a staff member left to go and buy some! That is great service! Food great, scone beautifully made with love, Two cuppas with oat milk. An inclusive place to sit and watch Stretfordians walk by. Ran into my childhood bestie and her Mum. What a lovely sanctuary for the hungry. Thank you, Georgia.

Great little craft beer place in Altrincham. Located in a small space but has a huge selection of specialist beers and ciders. If your ever in Altrincham and fancy a drink somewhere out of the way and cosy, I'd recommend this place
