The Bakery in Manchester

Waited 2 hours and still not arrived waste of money

I tried to visit here on a Tuesday at 6pm and it's closed unfortunately even though it says it's open :(

Ordered from the website after it saying it was open till 11pm this was at 7:30pm, set off and got to the bakery and it was closed! So why let me order if your closed! Wouldn’t recommend

For the price I paid I expected more. Got given 2 tiny slices off chocolate cake with a squirt of cream Which both was very chewy will never order from here again. Proper shambles. Best thing about it was the bought in vanilla ice cream

Used to love this place but gone massively downhill, no longer do milkshakes, The waffle was a shop bought sugar waffle and the brownies used to be amazing but again just tasted shop bought and stale. Paid for house cream and it was just squirty cream, won’t be ordering again

Cookie slab was so nice would get again same with donuts and cheesecake. Definitely worth trying cookie slab and donuts

Lovely fresh and tasty puddings!! I got biscoff cookie pie and 2 attempts later, I've still not finished it so will be breakfast for tomorrow haha so yummy and huge portion!! Partner got jam & coconut sponges with custard, didn't try them but looked so fluffy and smelt gorgeous!! Cookie pie more expensive than other places but worth it!! Biscoff shake was nice but not as full of flavour as I've had elsewhere but was still nice, very thick so took a while to drink but made with proper ice cream

I wish I would have seen you in the bakery, but if I'd seen you in the Bakery you probably wouldn't have seen me

Pretty sure I got the white chocolate biscoff cookie pie when I ordered the plain white chocolate cookie pie but I'd had a bad day so just ate it anyway! Very nice, massive portion, couldn't finish it!

Waffle was stone cold and chips

Waited hours..ordered cheese burgers got chicken burgers..wings were nice but everything was cold

Great food as always. However I ordered extra cream which didn't come

Me and my bf order from here too often but it’s the best food we have had from a small business take away , every time we order we say it just never disappoints, go to place every time we want something sweet or savery

Great food. Great vibe. Great staff. 10/10 definitely recommend!

The cake was nice , shame I didn’t get what I ordered nevermind , and chicken burger very salty wouldn’t order again

Absolutely terrible. Small portions and no taste

Cheese cake tasted like washing up liquid! Totally inedible and threw it in the bin. Sad, considering when i have been to store when it first opened it was ok

I ordered from here on the weekend and I think it will be my last visit. I've ordered from here a lot over the years since it first opened. It was great. Staff were lovely, food was tasty, tad over priced. But ever since they closed for renovation it has decreased in quality. It's still got the high prices though. The chicken fillets seem better quality but sometimes they're cold. The staff aren't as friendly either to be honest. But I could ignore that if they didn't keep getting my order wrong. I'd say 9/10 times it is wrong. They're always apologetic and redo the order but I order it, drive 10 mins to collect it, then when I get home I find they've given me the wrong order so have to go back. For instance I might order a gourmet chicken burger and it is a chicken burger with cheese and none of the things that are listed for the gourmet burger. There's less of the spice on the fries now too. It isn't wheelchair accessible and it isn't child friendly. It's aimed at 20-30 year olds. The music is incredibly loud too. Eating in there is like trying to eat in a club. Music banging and making it hard to hear the people you're eating with. I don't know if it's a different chef now or what but they're really not as good as they were. I think I'm going to look elsewhere for takeaways from now on.

All tastes lovely. Like how custard separated so dessert not soggy. Will deffo order again

Honestly, ever since they closed for renovation the food has been subpar. They have messed up our orders multiple times. Yes they will apologise and redo it but we order it, collect then take it home then have to go back with the food every time then wait for them to recook it. I'm sure some of the recipes have changed too. The chicken burger chicken fillets are better but other than that, it's gone worse. There may be more seating now to dine in but honestly the velvet sofas are a nightmare for Neurodivergent people. It is NOT child friendly (it asks if it is when I wrote the review). It is more for 20-30 year olds. The cost is quite high for what you get. It is NOT wheelchair accessible. There's a ledge you have to get up to get in. No ramp like they have in the shop next door. The music can be very loud too. Can be hard for people to hear each other over it. So it isn't a relaxing place to eat. It's more like trying to eat in a club. Those issues could be ignored if the food was as good as it used to be but it really isn't. There's other takeaways in the area that I'll be going to instead.

Ordered a cheesecake and it was very hard and frozen. When trying to eat it, the plastic spoon broke off.

The waiting time was not long at all, and if anything customer service from The bakery was just as amazing as the delicious experience. Would definalty recommend, for a perfect treat !

Was missing g the cookie dough

Just received my order. Spent £22 on 4 boxes of dipped Strawberries. These were the tiniest Strawberries I have ever seen!! Don't waste your money!! Strawberries more like tje size of blueberries!!

Fantastic service and food quality was amazing

Was feeling a cheeky cheat meal and they delivered! Doughnuts where perfect and the delivery driver was polite too! Highly recommend and will be ordering again

Honestly great food. Ordered the cheeseburger and cookie dough for dessert. Up there with one of the best foods I’ve had in a while. Staff and vibe inside was great too

staff are so nice and helpful they r so sweet and the food is banging woukd recommend to anyone

No cream sent with any of the order, was refunded by the driver but milkshake was poor compared to previous orders. Won’t be using again unfortunately

Waffle not fresh it's from a packet and chicken wings are not the best sorry

Delivery was perfect the delivery driver was quite nice and polite but the food is disgusting. The cake is absolutely disgusting I can't eat it. It has a chicken tast to it I adduce it is kept close to where they cook the chicken and I ordered a pox and mix jar and its only fried egg sweets and millions and that's not what I expected over all the delivery was good food is not good

Foods angin and horrible to the staff

The cookie dough was nice but the Crepe was basically just a pancake it’s so thick it’s horrible , the chocolate on it was in one blob so when it made it to me it was a solid bock on top that wouldn’t spread around and left half the pancake bone dry, do not waste your money

Thankyou for making us new milkshakes and sending out a free cake!

My dessert was stale and rock hard freezing, Sent me the wrong cans and also was 30 minutes,

Seriously seriously good food. Really impressed!

Quick delivery, food was 10/10 can’t complain ❤️

Love it ! Amazing food and service ...100% recommend

Yummy milkshake and biscoff waffle😋😋

Late not keen on hot food but the crape was good polite delivery driver

never got the order, no call or anything :(

Omg there the best milkshakes and cakes EVER you have to go everything fresh and amazing the brownie is stunning the cornflake cake is 10/10 the Oreo and milky way milkshake SPECIAL

Un-f***ing-real 🔥🔥🔥. This place doesn't scrimp on portion sizes OR quality. The raspberry & white chocolate cookie dough is mind blowing. So dense, so rich, every bite was a sinful sensation of flavour and texture. The use of actual raspberries to give it that zingy punch balances it perfectly with the warm blanket of velvety cookie dough and white chocolate shards. Being someone with a sweet tooth I've tried my fair share of sweet treats in and around Manchester to varying degrees of quality, but The Manchester Bakery has taken the crown today. It's "eyes-rolling-into-the-back-of-the-head" levels of excellence 🤌🏻💕 will be back for more no doubt

Just received my order! What an absolute culinary delight! It looks good enough to eat and it was everything and more when I tasted it. Oh the nostalgia of a cornflake tart. Certainly talented and delicious food. Can’t wait to order again #foodcoma #lovedessert

It was that late i had to take it back to the shop as the cookie dough was rock it waa all cold and the cream had melted. The white chocolate was also missed of one of the cookie doughs. The reason people order delivery is because they dont want to leave the house. So the fact i had to.leave the house to take it back was silly! Order was suposed to be here at 10 past 9 it got here at 9.35

DO NOT ORDER ONLINE if you want food as it does not arrive. Nobody answers the telephone. Stay well clear

Visited the Bakery after coming across the business on Tik Tok. Purchased the mini cake. Was told by the staff member the cakes were baked yesterday. The sponge was hard and dry. The cake was clearly more than a day old.

Great milkshake and the Biscoff cookie dough was spot on

The hot food was cold and the cold food was warm. Also was very late. Would have been delicious if not for this.

The food was lovely and was impressed with delivery speed - the only issue was that I found a piece of plastic in the milkshake that is easily a choking hazard size. I understand that it wasn’t intentional and so would order again!

the Daim milkshake was lovely but the chocolate orange one tasted off and the chocolate pieces tasted of expired chocolate, never had an issue before but this has put me off

Amazing amazing 😫 driver was cute x

Always enjoy the desserts from here, the fresh donuts are really nice :)

My order is saying complete yet I have still not received my order?

I will never order from here again the food is over priced and not very good quality. I ordered pancakes and they were awful and microwaved which made them soggy. Also the strawberry waffle was so small and the strawberries were hard and not nice. The milkshake was lovely and nice but that was it.

Just been in got some cakes, we haven’t even tasted the cakes yet I just had to leave a 5 star review for the milkshake! I got a chocolate cake milkshake and it’s the best think I have ever tasted omg, made with vanilla ice cream, the cream they put on the top isn’t just squirt cream out of a can it’s proper home made cream! absolutely beautiful!

Stone cold its meant to.be warm and with delivery costs £9 is a joke Avoid

Ordered chips a waffle and a crepe all the food was cold delivery took longer than advertised and the restaurant did not contact me to inform me I had to call three times to find out what was happening to be told they’re almost here 5 minutes later my food comes and it’s all cold. Not impressed had to microwave some of it and it still didn’t help. Threw most of it in the bin.

Don't make an order through deliveroo. Made an order and it never came. I phoned them and there was no answer. Had to attempt a refund via deliveroo and the rep called them as well with no answer. The order was never delivered at all.

was over an hour and a half late :(

I've not recieved my order so really NO STARS for you it said it was due to be delivered between 22.55&23.15 its now 23.23 and it says enjoy my order livid disgusted.

These don't make your waffles fresh they are package ones you put in the toaster and the cookie dough is literally a normal cookie with choclate on top and put in the microwave was not worth the £15 at all

I asked for strawberries and got given raspberries which I am allergic to very disappointed with this

Ordereds are always late has shown on times them delivery

Not happy atall with delivery or the food delivery was over a hour late had about 6 calls saying they were out side really not happy with food

They taste like is was brought from the shop down the road and was dry as the ice cream was poor and just all round disappointment really, I will never be coming back here again

Lovely food, fantastic cakes, friendly staff would definitely recommend this place to anyone I spoke to! Grab yours!!

To be honest the food itself was lovely but portion size was a bit shocking, £6.50 for a waffle, assume you’d get a full size big waffle like other dessert places but the waffle was literally the size of my phone 😂😂😂😂 should maybe be labelled as 1/4 of a waffle but tasted nice

Lovely as always but ran a little late.

20 mins after ordering it arrived!!! Amazing. Food was stunning & the desserts perfect as always.

I loved this place and never had a bad takeaway just one blip Tonight was different, my food arrived soggy/ it had been out for delivery for at least 20 mins. The food must have been hot at one point as the cake placed on top on the food had fallen apart as the butter creme had melted and was all congealed at the bottom of the container The rainbow cake halved in size and was still very nice but still is the same price. I ordered 2 meal offers the once tasty burger was a cold , wet soggy mess. The second came as just wings no chips. I’ve taken up with just eat and am waiting for a refund. I don’t know what’s happened to this place but it’s just not worth the money , I always thought it stood out from the other places but now it’s awful

Sticky toffee pudding was just a chocolate cake

Ordered some items for my son for his birthday, on his milkshake he ordered ice cream as an extra which we didn’t receive, also the Reece’s cup slab was tiny, wasn’t worth a mouthful. Didn’t bother ringing up as was late and my son just wanted to go to bed.

There wings are to die for excellent

My fave place for a chicken burger , gourmet burger is the best !! Always amazing. Deserts aren’t the best around but the hot food and wings is spot on

Cold. Cream added to orders but I didn’t ask for it as hate cream. Wont be ordering from here again.

Not great, overpriced and came late

The waffle could have been a fresh one. Usually they do waffles fresh but it was a packet one. Everything else was amazing.

Great milkshake and waffle. Recommend

Didn’t get the name of the boy who served me but he was so polite and can tell he cares about his customers. They do the best snickers milkshakes!

Excellent service we phoned up just as our delivery driver had left to add some cans onto the order but he has already left so the lovely lady (the owner) rang us back and said he’s left but if you tell us what you want we will deliver them free of charge just pay for the cans on delivery and true to her words 5 minutes later our cans were delivered👌🏻food was also delicious!!

Went with the old school cornflake tart with custard and it was so good! Kids love it when we order from here which is becoming a regular thing! The Milkshakes and crepes are a favourite of theirs ⭐️

First we were missing a milkshake, then realised the dough wasn't cooked properly on crepe. Called the bakery. They said we can send the 2 crepes back and they will send us some treats to make up for it. Nearly 2 hours later we got a soggy cake, a cupcake and sweets. Not even the equivalent of the cost of the 2 crepes we sent back. Also the doughnuts were not fresh. We didnt eat them either. So altogether we wasted over £30...very disappointed and no refund

Amazing service. Ordered cake for my daughter's birthday around 7pm, arrived by 10:30am next morning. Really unbelievable 👏

i ordered the red velvet cake slice and there was chunks of something in it im not to sure what it was

Don't bother ordering from here! Not even close to average! The price we paid for what we got was ridiculous! Not even close to average in quality or value for money . I don't bother leaving reviews but I have to for this one .

Ordered a Mars bar milkshake with an extra Mars bar and whipped cream. Was absolutely delicious can definitely taste the Mars pieces inside, really good size for the price. Also ordered strawberry ice cream pot with extra strawberries which was delicious, and a funfetti cupcake, which I loved! So soft and moist! And you can see the amazing quality of the sprinkles. The only thing that lets it down is the waiting time, however the wait was still worth it in the end! :)

Ordered 2 waffles that took an hour to arrive. Expected standard sized waffles (as you do) what we recieved were two tiny waffles around the size of your palm. Initially thought we had ordered half waffles by mistake! They were both stone cold, rock hard and dryer than the sun. Would not reccommend.

Fries were cold and tasted horrible. Wings were not spicy rather sweet!! Horrible food horrible service and pathetic delivery time

I DIDNT EVEN GET IT GIVE ME MY £12 BACK?!?!?

Wow the chocolate fudge cake and sticky toffee pudding were amazingggggg!!!!! We will definitely be back :)

I love this place and order regularly so it pains me to leave a negative review. But the last few ordered haven’t been great. My hot food was cold and soggy. Not sure how when I’m quite close by. Requested rainbow cake and I’ve got 2 plain cupcakes. Delivery driver has been the same one twice now and can’t work my buzzer. He always says it isn’t working , it is. I really hope whatever this blip is gets sorted soon as it really is a lovely place

Excellent chicken wings. Best around.

Don’t order the crepe I found something burnt in there and ut was disgusting also ordered white choco cookie dough the dessert places have no idea a whit chocolate cookie dough should be like it should have white chocolate chips in the dough but oh well it came early at least

food lacks flavor tastes plastic

20 odd pound for a watered down milkshake and 1 pancake didn’t even come with the extras we paid for

Took an hour and 45 mins came cold and no extras after it being sent out twice thought they may have sent a freebie or a sorry note, nothing plus the cookie had no ice cream like usual not happy at all not very helpful when asked where the order was

2 hours late. Burnt cookie dough.

Faz delivered my order from the bakery. He had great customer service and was very friendly. Ordered a Nutella and Oreo milkshake which was to die for and a jam and coconut cake. Will definitely be ordering from here again!

A little overpriced for the portions. But it was really very nice. We would think about ordering again
