The Glass House in Salford

The most amazing evening. Food was superb every morsel Devine. The staff were efficient with the right amount of friendly enthusiasm. Can’t wait to go back.

Amazing night at the glass house, food was beautiful and presented beautifully too!! Recommend to all my friends and family! Will, Tina and Curtis where amazing hosts also.

Wow, I cannot believe the selection of baked goods available at the Glasshouse Bakery. I have just bought the most amazing pear and almond tart. 10/10 on presentation and taste. As for value of money, the portion was so generous that it could have been easily shared with another person (but there was no way it was going to be!) It is lovely to see the students serving people and talking about the goods. Well done Glasshouse Bakery, you are a brilliant addition to the area.

Lovely evening at the glass house, food, drinks and service were top notch. Our server Kaylen was very attentive. Great hosts from Kurtis and Tina. 5*

What an amazing find this college restaurant is! Happy to say that we have been lucky enough to get a booking a few times now and have always been massively impressed with both the quality of the food and the great service (shout to Will!). The menu changes all the time and is always interesting and varied and also has vegetarian options. There is now a shop open a few days a week where you can buy some of the produce (recommended the lovely flavoured breads). We managed to book the 7 course tasting event for the end of the month and we can't wait! Keep up the great work!!

Amazing venue food was great all delicious looking forward to the Xmas gala !! great cocktails and all reasonable priced - service excellent thanks

I took my family to the glasshouse as I had been previously with a friend & enjoyed the experience. We went to a 7 course taster session. The students didn’t disappoint, the food was lovely & the presentation was superb. The students waiting on were very attentive at clearing the tables of any dirty plates & glasses and service of food was spot on. We was kept well hydrated too 😉 There was a young man singing background music throughout the night too who was excellent. All in all an extremely lovely night was had by all. 🥰 thank you to all the students for making our family get together so special. Would definitely go again. ❤️

Really lovely food and great atmosphere It was a friend’s birthday and they went the extra mile to make it special. So a special thank you to you all, have a nice break and will certainly see you in September, can’t wait

First time at The Glasshouse and we were not really sure what to expect! Our initial impression was what a very professional and refined setting the restaurant was! The team were extremely polite and helpful, the surroundings were elegant and inviting and the food was absolutely excellent! A choice of starters, mains and dessert all of which were delicious and beautifully presented! Exceptional value for money and I cannot wait until next term bookings open! Need to be quick though as it was difficult to get a table for dinner! I can see why - great experience from start to end!

We have visited several times this academic year with friends. You have to remember it's a training Restaurant/Kitchen designed to introduce the Students into the world of Hospitality and everything is not always going to be perfect. However, the food on this visit was fantastic enough for me to leave a review. Sauteed Chicken liver starter was excellent. Plates were hot as they should be, always a plus. My main was Louisianna Fish stew with a Timbale of Rice plus accompaniments. The fish and prawns were perfectly baked and the whole dish was a delight to eat. I finished with a Lemon Meringue Posset....beautiful. Our Waiter was friendly and efficient. There's not many, if any places in the area where you can have a meal of quality in a such nice surroundings. Excellent value for money.

Another great evening at The Glasshouse this time for Christmas Dinner. The reception area looked stunning and the restaurant was cosy and festive. Love the fact that the students cook and serve our meals, they are friendly, happy to help and very attentive. Our meal was delicious, tasty starters the tempura battered fish was the dish of the night and the game rillette flavoursome. We all had the traditional Christmas meal. Well cooked turkey and gravy, fluffy roast potatoes and all the trimmings, delicious. Desserts followed with lots of choice but for me it had to be Christmas pudding, a lighter version with all the fruit and flavours served with a creamy hot custard. A cocktail rounded of the evening which was as good as I have had anywhere. Loved the whole night.

I was invited by my aunt and didn't really know what to expect. The food was as good as some top class restaurants in the country. The students were helpful & professional. Highly recommended! I'll definitely be booking to go back in the future. They apologised as we had to wait ever so slightly between courses but to be honest it was a perfect time and didn't feel rushed.

Had a wonderful evening at the Glass House. With a fabulous menu choice. Was very impressed with the variety of dishes and their uniqueness. Food was lovely, very well presented, cooked and tasty. The staff were amazing, so friendly, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and also entertaining. Curtis, Nikolai and Mason were super helpful and made the evening very enjoyable. Amazing value for money. The Glass House also were selling some home made pastries, savouries and desserts, absolutely lovely. Thank you

As usual the Glasshouse did us proud . Perhaps the best meal we have had for some time. Service was good ( it’s always interesting!!) . Best value food anywhere in our opinion. Could be a bit longer between courses possibly - it’s often only just over an hour for the whole meal .

Following previous visits this is now our regular location for our catch up. The food as always was excellent and extremely good value for money. The learners were friendly, professional and helpful. As always a fantastic experience and we will be back soon.

We went for a gourmet evening where we were served 7 courses. The staff was lovely: Tina and Curtis are great hosts and the students are very professional and were knowledgeable about the menu, and answered any questions we had. The food was amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed all seven courses, with no complaints. All staff—hired, and students, were very attentive and were keen to give us the best experience possible. Created a lovely atmosphere you couldn't get elsewhere. Drinks were very good also!! Would definitely recommend—the only place you can get fine dining, while also maintaining a budget. PS. my pics don't do it justice :D

Nice place, well run, food absolutely beautifully presented and tastes lovely. The young waiters do so well...really attentive and pleasant. A lovely night, thank you.

This is a catch-up review following several visits for lunches and dinners. On each occasion the food has been first-class and extremely good value. The students are also invariably friendly and the venue itself is very comfortable. There is also a large car park. So don't bother cooking yourself, go to the Glass House and enjoy yourself!

My husband and I along with two friends attended a gala evening last night at the Glass House. It was all dressed up with arches of balloons and a student playing a musical instrument. We were greeted with a kir royals and shown to our table. Then followed a 7 course gourmet meal. The food was fantastic, the students serving and in the kitchen were exceptional. There was also a keyboard player with students from Pendleton College singing which was amazing. We have been many times before either for lunch or evening meal but last night surpassed them all. We hope to continue coming when you reopen in September with a brand new imagine. Well done students and staff we applause you.

Amazing as always. The food is outstanding, service attentive & fantastic value for money. Our 3 rd visit & won’t be our last.

First time there last night after being recommended by our friends. What an amazing experience, beautiful tasting food, attentive front of house staff. So good we have booked to go back again in March before they close for a refurbishment which will include a shop and outdoor seating. Can't wait for the calendar to open and be able to book for later in the year.

My parents had been for lunch here a few months ago, and enjoyed it so much that they arranged for myself and my wife to join them for dinner one evening when available. So, they booked (which you have to do well in advance), and we looked forward to it. We went last night, and I have to say that we all thoroughly enjoyed it! If you've read the reviews and info, you will know that this restaurant is run by the city Catering College, the meals are cooked by aspiring chefs-to-be, and the waiting staff are hospitality course students. This gives them all "front line" experience, and is a great way to learn in a controlled environment. Waiting staff attentive, nothing too much trouble, and they dealt with the formalities easily. Orders taken, drinks delivered, ready to eat. Unexpected canopies arrived: One prawn toast, and one goats cheese. Delicious! I chose the Bouillabaisse to start - lovely, seafood broth, plenty of mussels, really tasty. Excellent! Main course swiftly followed: I went for shallow fried trout fillet, on a bed of mashed potato, accompanied by roasted veg and peppers. Again, excellent! Dessert was easy for me from the choices available - hot chocolate sponge with ice cream. Delicious! To finish off, petit fours - 3 varieties, the best of which was a salted caramel choc. lovely. Amongst the other dishes on offer that night were beef samosa, turkey roulade, pork fillet, and lemon/lime tart. I tried each of these as my co-diners had them, all were excellent. So, value for money...unbelievable! At £19.95 per person, you would be hard pressed to find food this good for anywhere near that price! A main course alone would be that as a minimum! Will we go again? 100% yes! Highly recommended.....but do me a favour, don't tell anyone because they only open for evening meals a few times each month and it's already really difficult to get a reservation, so keep it quiet or else we won't be able to book a table again!

Could this be the best lunch for £12 in Greater Manchester? The Glass house at all den College once again provides a quality of food you just don’t expect at a truly great price for 3 delicious courses

A lovely lunch. Menu three course which was varied with something for everyone. One of our party was a last minute addition and I hadn’t told them she was diabetic. No problem because she could have any of the dessert dishes they brought cheese and biscuits. The 1st year students not only cooked everything but served it with a smile and were happy to chat about there course. Have booked again for an evening with family next month

Visited with a group of friends and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The learners were professional, polite and very helpful and are an absolute credit to the tutors. The food was excellent value for money and all courses were of a very high quality. We will absolutely be returning.

I went for lunch with my friend on 11th November. It was held by Level 1s and it was their first lunch session so you could see they were very nervous. Lunch was £12 for 3 courses and the wine was tasty and great value...

Food and service was excellent, the students were so attentive and professional. The food was delicious and reasonably priced, presented beautifully and a lovely setting too! I will definitely be making another visit.

The whole experience was wonderful. The service the drinks. The food was exceptional & great value for money.

They say that you never get a second chance to make a first impression and The Glass House delivers. Our granddaughter has just commenced a course here and booked us in for lunch. Fantastic friendly and warm welcome and we were seated a few minutes...

The food and service is excellent. Had a lovely 3 course meal for lunch. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Definitely worth a visit

The food was amazing and incredible value. Great service throughout delivered by Olivia and Sara. They are a credit to the college

The welcome was warm and the service impeccable. The food was a delight and they took the greatest of care to ensure that those of us with allergies were "looked after". The guys and their tutors deserve the great reviews that they've been awarded -...

The food that we had tonight was very good indeed. Some parts excellent. Service was good. Overall really good value. Little surprised that as a training environment we weren't offered the chance to reflect on our experience. But do go and enjoy

The whole experience was delightful. The service was prompt, polite and of a high standard. Food was amazing.

Thank you for the lovely meal on Thursday. As always the food, service and atmosphere was perfect. The best baked cheesecake I've had in 31 years.

Fantastic service and food both at lunchtime and in the evening. The staff are really welcoming. Thanks!

This is a restaurant within a college run by the students and overseen by the teaching staff. It is literally “Cordon blue’ “. Served in the style of a five star hotel. A table de hire’ menu. I can recommend this restaurant to any one...

This restaurant is based in a local college operated by students and teachers. It has limited opening days for lunch,afternoon tea and dinner. It is also closed when the college is so next bookings in October and we have booked to sample all of them...

What a treat an excellent array of sandwiches,,savouries and homemade cakes The maitre’d and her students gave outstanding service certainly worthy of many of the best restaurants around the world we have visited We wish them all well in their future careers

One of the best dining experiences I have ever had. I am the most faddy eater in the world. No expert but I know what I like. Salford’s best for you to find. So hard to get in on the 64 tables 1 night a...

Took my mum for her birthday as she loves it hear and we was not disappointed. Food,service and staff all first class can’t express how professional they are can’t wait to go again.

Today we have experienced wanith friends an excellent afternoon tea served by the students. The food and level of service was worthy of five star treatment. We mentioned thst we have all expeienced afternoon tea in the Burj Al Arab in Dubai and this was equally as good. What you are served is such good value for money and we would recommend people to certainly support the students.

The lunch we had was very nice our grandkids were with us and they both often still comment on how nice the food was. We more recently went for dinner to a special six course tasting menu. The food was amazingly good and we enjoyed every course, the students do an amazing job, cooking and serving the food and drink. We will most certainly be going again. The prices are affordable too.

This is a restaurant catered by a college . Its run by teachers and learning students- A hall is converted into the most comfortable restaurant with furniture that does NOT leave you with an aching back or "Numb Bum". Thats just for starters-

valentines night consisted of a 5 course taster menu excellent balance top notch food from the trainee chefs highly recommend... Fine dining at a fraction of the cost.. Well worth a healthy tip!

Back to the Glasshouse for the new term. Lunch on a Thursday this time since we have a concert to go to in the evening. new students, new ,monthly changing menu same style, same wonderful cooking same slightly diffident but lovely service same splendid lunch. we will continue to go and enjoy - come and join us

Had a great evening here the food and service was of the highest standard. All the students should be very proud of themselves. Had a great time

Our Family have, for some time now had monthly 'Making an Effort' meals out once a month at the Glass House as it offers stunningly prepared, varied & very tasty food at very reasonable prices. The Glass House in Walkden, is where trainee Chefs & 'Front of House' students plan the menu and then prepare & serve the food in a very welcoming environment. All the staff & Tutors collectively give you & your party amazing food / varied menus with great service. The menu covers a variety of starters, mains & some amazing deserts along with little 'tasters' served in between courses & the menu changes monthly. It really does offer amazing opportunities for these young chefs & future restaurateurs & booking in advance is recommended.

As part of a W.I. supper club, a group of us went here for a 3 course dinner on a Thursday evening. The food was fabulous with plenty of choice on all courses. Presentation and flavour were wonderful, as was the service.

My husband and I had a lovely Christmas meal on 14th December. The students were very professional and pleasant. Excellent service and attention to detail. Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and good luck in your catering careers.

Only open a couple of nights a week and one day for afternoon tea and make sure you book for this very popular training restaurant. The food is beautifully prepared and served by the students, very good value. Well worth a visit.

We went to the Glasshouse for the first time, having only just discovered it for the 7 course tasting menu put on to celebrate Salford Food Fortnight. And what a meal it was. A true feast. Splendidly cooked and served by the students it would have graced any of the city center restaurants . Amazing value at just £15.95 per head. Only slight flaw was the ill advised sorbet which never really unfroze sufficiently to eat properly. We will return only the very limited opening hours but well worth putting yourself out for. a real treat. The students , several who came to the college from Harrapfold School nearby ( As featured on Educating Greater Manchester recently ) were a credit to their schools, teachers , the College and the City of Salford. Well done all concerned

Such a beautiful place to sit and eat. I ate sandwiches which were served with crisps, salad and coleslaw. Local Lancashire cheese - lovely. My friend had a hearty cheese pie served with fries and salad. Luscombe drinks and fruit ciders are available.

Great food served by young people learning the catering and hotel trade. The food was excellent with a good choice.

Tuve la deliciosa comida más deliciosa, muy bien presentada y el mejor que he probado. El restaurante es encantador, con ropa de mesa, decoración y ambiente. Los estudiantes hicieron un trabajo excelente del servicio y sin duda volveremos. Buena suerte a todos los alumnos que están haciendo un trabajo excelente.

Decided to try here to celebrate my birthday, was not disappointed. Presentation and quality of meal excellent. Service friendly professional, but slightly hurried. Would definitely return but go earlier

¡Qué gran oportunidad Si recién está comenzando, es un auténtico restaurante el aprendizaje de los estudiantes hacer toda la cosa incluyendo el servicio, disfrute podrá disfrutar y dar la bienvenida a su apoyo. Ir eso es una certeza absoluta.

Excelente intachable personal amable la comida visitará de nuevo. El personal es muy joven y son la formación de los nervios pueden superficie pero así una cara sonriente se calma, pero la comida es de calidad 5 estrellas, así que dale una oportunidad y no te decepcionará.

The restaurant is unique and you cannot beat the price! (We had a 7 course tasting menu for £12.50!)As the 'staff' are all college trainees, expect to forgive them for any mistakes (But there really were none!)Presentation was incredible, service was impeccable and food delicious.I cannot fault this place especially for 16-17 year olds!

There is something very unique about this place that other local restaurants can't rival.How does a training restaurant that is part of Salford City College do it so well and in style, without compromising the customer experience. If you're a lover of high quality fine dining and appreciate being served by people learning their trade, then make this one of your special places to eat - you won't be disappointed. You can eat like a celebrity for a fraction of the cost.Keep it up and we'll done to those highly skilled chef lecturers that are training our future Michelin Star chefs.I'm looking forward to the next themed night....

Wow. Although a little nervous we would not have guessed that today was our waiters first time with real customers. He provided us with excellent service. The quality and presentation of the food was first class and well worth double the amount we paid. We will be booking again. Well done students and staff.

Afternoon Tea. Standard £4 or Deluxe £6. Great value for money. I had the deluxe and it was one of the best afternoon tea's I've ever had. Sandwiches, cakes, scone and little puddings too, all of which were lovely. Ask for extra pot of tea or coffee - no problem. Service was very professional and efficient.

My wife and I took four teenage Grandchildren for a 3 course evening meal at the Glasshouse. We had an excellent meal and all the Grandchildren said they enjoyed it very much. Our Granddaughter said the meal were very well presented and from a teenager, that is praise indeed! There was a good choice on the menu, so, even the most fussy of teenagers would not be disappointed. The Training Staff were as pleasant and helpful as always and are a credit to the College. We are looking forward to our visit for the "Mexican Evening" in May.

We went on a Thursday for tea it was lovely we took our 3 year old daughter and they went out of there way to accommodate her they made her a special dinner we would definitely return our food was lovely too the students worked really well

Well done to all the Lovely Staff. Who worked really hard. To make it a success. The atmosphere was very friendly. We chatted to people on next table. So enjoy supporting Our Local College. The food was excellent as usual. Well presented and served. Great to be invited for this Special High Tea. Please support them. Looking forward to more superb meals out here.

Deciding to do something different, the opportunity came to visit this restaurant on a Thursday night with friends. The service by the students was very good considering they only started the course in September. Monitored by senior staff the quality of the food and service was very good. Give it a try1

I came here for lunch with my parents who visit here on a regular basis. What a find, The waiter was quite nervous but this is a college and he is gaining experience from interacting with the public. We were served a warm bread roll which was one of the best ever I could have had another. For starters we picked a cheese tart, thai fishcakes and soup. We could not fault any of this - all excellent. For mains we chose pork, meat pie and fish. I could have paid and taken food home it was that good. Then dessert we chose sticky date pudding and profiteroles. We had water to drink with the meal. We are from Bolton and none of us like the taste of the tap water in Walkden. That was a downside perhaps the college could look at adding lemon, lime, cucumber to make it taste nicer. I'm not saying Bolton is the best but nicer than Walkden,

I visited here today with my aunt and grandma, and it's safe to say my second visit was nothing short of fantastic! The waiting staff deserve a huge praise for their excellent service, friendliness and confidence. In addition to this, the food is carefully and beautifully presented (and the vegetarian options are second to none!) I will be returning here for Christmas and hopefully more when I am in the area.congratulations to all staff and students for being brilliant, I'm sure you will all do very well in your future careers in hospitality & catering :-)

It was a Europe- themed night, so lots of flags and European costumes etc.The room was nicely laid out and pleasantly aired.It was a tasting dishes from around the world & there is a licensed Bar as well.The staff are only young and worked hard.Sometimes there was a bit of a gap between the courses and and I would have liked to food to have been served a bit hotter. But the dishes themselves were used delicious, & all beautifully presented.It's great value for money - £15 - and it's nice to feel that you are supporting the students with their studies.Good job!!

Young people do not get good press reviews at times, but if you book a meal here, you will find young people who are well-trained and dedicated to what they are learning. My wife and I, together with lots of friends, have visited here many times, but last night, (Thursday 4th June), it excelled itself. It was a "Taste of Europe" evening. Many of the young waiters dressed for the occasion: one young man in Lederhosen and our waitress was a young French girl.We commenced our menu with a Welcome Bread from Russia, then sampled dishes from England, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Hungary, Switzerland, France and Germany. Even managed my cup of tea with Shortbread from Scotland.We could not fault one meal: it was well-presented, well-cooked and tasted unbelievably delicious. Apart from the Shortbread and Antipasto, we had never eaten any of the other dishes and they were a culinary experience. The young "chefs" had truly excelled themselves and the young people waiting upon our tables were so pleasant and cheerful, despite the pressure they must have been under.All I can say is that we cannot wait for the next themed evening and in the meantime, we will continue to visit for lunches and evening meals.Congratulations to all the staff for a superb evening. They would put many other restaurants to shame with their high standards. It is fine dining but not expensive. For our 10 course meal, glass of wine for four people, we only paid £77! We gave a good tip as all gratuities go to a day/night out for the young people. It was well deserved.

I have been as a couple and enjoyed lunch on every occasion, the service is second to non - the food is well cooked and presented, the serving staff is very attentive to all your needs. My best recommendation is I have invited several couples to accompany me for Friday lunch,and as secretary to a charity have taken a party of 14 for a lunch and a party of 8 to one of the best "Mad Hatters Tea Party".They all want to know when we are going again, soon they hope.

Attended with Family. Mad hatters Tea Party. Excellent food and Staff. Room beautifully presented. great value at £10 per Head. Made to feel so welcome. Better than High Teas at really Posh Restaurants. Even gave us foil trays to take away with yummy mini cakes and treats. I cannot praise them enough. Service is always excellent and friendly from staff. Love supporting all the Lads and girls trying so hard whilst enjoying themselves. Credit to all their Tutors. Can't wait for the next Event here. Singing their praises very loudly. You all have to try a Great Training Restaurant. Well done everyone.

Really good experience, very welcoming young man on arrival there took our coats and hung them up. Really nicely laid out room, tables very nicely laid and attentive young students learning their new skills. Excellent food cooked by the students and really well presented. Nice relaxing music. Excellent ! Well done to students who need the encouragement, pity there was no opportunity to provide feedback to the students other than saying Thankyou to them. Hope to go back soon.

Visited here for Fri Lunch with 3 other family members. Food and Service perfect. Students so helpful. Regan Our Server was superb. Very Professional. Great value for money. £6 for 3 Courses. Drinks cheap. Compares favourably with some of the Best Restaurants around. Warm Greetings from all staff. Can't wait to visit again soon. Well Done everyone. Lovely Experience for us all. You need to try it.

We can't believe the meal we have just had, 3 courses for £6! We have eaten at lots of places in Manchester, Mr Cooper's Garden at the Midland Hotel for example and the food surpasses that. The waiting staff were very good and attentive as well! Would recommend and will return!

Visited here last night with my wife and friends, the food was absolutely excellent, the portions just right and presentation perfect. The restaurant is part of Salford College the students working were all helpful and friendly. Excellent value for money we will visit again

This restaurant is part of Walkden College, which in turn, is part of Salford City College. The restaurant is fully serviced by students, from your greeting, your service and of course, your food. With Christmas approaching, the menu is very festive, and excellent. I called in as will be part of a dinner in January when leading companies will be invited to a meal, listen to a story of Salford and asking for their help in increasing apprenticeships. Any looking in Hospitality and catering will go a long way to see better products than provided at The Glass House!

We had a great evening in the Glasshouse last week. Everything was brilliant. For the money you pay, it was a superb value. You pay (evening meal) only £10 for a 3-course meal plus amuse bouche, bread, and crepes (if you wish; by ordering crepes you give them a chance to practice). Drinks and tips are not included. We had goat cheese with sweet chilli sauce for amuse bouche. Starters were butternut squash soup and Thai fishcake with soba noodles. Mains were pollock and guineafowl. For the desserts my husband had panna cotta, I had hazelnut and apricot parfait.The strongest point I found in this restaurant was their hospitality. Another strong point was the desserts, especially the parfait. I can say it was to die for, one of the best desserts I have ever had. Divine!!Oh, we were invited by the Teacher to see the kitchen. I was so happy!Final verdict: they did really well. We enjoyed the evening so much and we are going to return -we have made a reservation for Christmas menu. More information: parking is available in front of the restaurant. Traffic is busy in the evening (our reservation was 18:45) so if you are not a local, give yourself plenty of time to get there.

I have had the pleasure to eat here twice in the past few weeks, one for a themed evening and the other for lunch.Lunch last week was superb, great service from arrival, with students looking after you but overseen by staff at all times. The staff member on duty (Mike) was very attentive and gave feedback to students throughout.I had the soup for starter followed by the veggie dish of the day - I was too full for a sweet. The others that I dined with also enjoyed the food and service. The cost if just £5 per person for a 3 course meal at the moment - simply amazing value. There were about 15 people in for lunch, so enough for a good atmosphere.I like the way the students ask for feedback on way on an ipad - same used to take food and drink orders - very professional.We are going again for Christmas lunch and are looking forward to it.

went in a large group on a themed night in aid of breast cancer awareness. We had a fab menu to choose from with accompanying cocktails. Great service from the students. The food is fantatstic value. Give it a try - you wont be disappointed.

I went with a party of three, myself, my mum and my grandma so we were a variety of ages. We went for the six nations special event and it was lovely. The staff were slightly nervous but didn't give up with the service (silver service at that). The bar has a good variety of drinks and the food was delicious. We had to wait a little while longer than we would have expected from starter to main and we were sat by the window which was a bit drafty. Over all for the price which was less than £20 each including drinks we were very happy and will return in the future x

This afternoon 14/06/13 my friend and i visited 'The Glass House' in Walkden.From entering the building to leaving, the service was excellent, It was hard to choose a starter,main course and sweet from the menu ,we were spoilt for choice.The soup was delicious,the pork ( main course ) was very tender and the sweet a lemon cheese cake had the hummmmmmmm factor( it melted in my mouth). Would i recommend it ,yes,would i go again,yes,we've already booked for a second visit.The price was very reasonable,i've been to restaurants that provide this kind of service and menu where you have to pay three/four times as much.It's excellent that there is a place like this where young people can learn their craft ,keep up the good work !!!!

I would like to see more puree and more focus on flavor and plating these are all stuff the students will Lear but tutors have to push it on them to find there style

First of all offered water, then a selection of bread, all freshly baked and delicious. ,starters a selection of appetizers. all really tasty and presentation very good, my Husbands starter was a bed of cous cous, topped goats cheese, and a crouton and a poached egg , with a tomato and courgette salad in a vinegrette dressing, followed by baked haddock with vegetables puree of parsnips, potato dauphinois, I had a selection of appetizers which where all delicious, followed by slow cooked breast of lamb with a apricot stuffing, we both had lemon and raspberry mille fleur with cream, just like to say we will be going back it was very good

Delicious meal, the lamb in particular was excellent. The display of desserts was impressive. The menu catered well for the vegetarians in the party too.The staff were discreet yet attentive.We all enjoyed the experience & would definitely go back soon.

I have been to the Glasshouse 4 times now and each time i have thoroughly enjoyed myself. The restaurant interior improves everytime as it becomes more established, though sometimes there is still a slight chill depending on where you are seated. Id recommend you take a cardigan or cover up if you visit in the evening during the winter months. It is a big room, so this is understandable. The menu is always varied and is composed of lovely choices. The lunchtime menu I have always found to be top notch and the taste of the food always spot on. I have also visited on a theme night for an evening meal and although the menu was set, there was still excitement when the food arrived. The only thing I would comment on is that theme nights are a little on the pricey side when compared to the quality and quanity of the much cheaper lunchtime menu. I have yet to visit on a standard non-themed evening, but i certainly will when i get chance. The staff and students are always delightful and it is fantastic to watch their confidence grow with each visit. I would throughly recommend a visit to the Glasshouse, but do that bear in mind it is a training restaurant and you have to accept that the students are learning and require patience from time to time. Having said that, i think the students are fantastic and have never had a bad experience.

myself & 5 friends booked in for the 6 nations meal night left very full & got to try out some thing new staff were lovley all in all was an exclent night will be going back soon

The Glass House is the training restaurant of Salford City College in Walkden. Training restaurants can get a bad press but the Glass House is excellent in every respect. The food was very good and the service excellent. I would have no hesitation in recomending this restaurant.
