The Mews Bar & Charcuterie in Manchester

The staff were fantastic apart from that, this is by far the most over hyped resturant I've ever been to. £130 for a pot of melted grainy cheese, 6 pieces of salami, some bread and roast potatoes and a round of drinks. Save your money

My experience was lovely and the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice. I loved that it was dimly lit, with lots of candles, the music was also good. The food was ok for the most part, nicely presented, great options but I noticed that some of the orders were very salty. The salt and pepper squid, was just too much salt even for the name. The fondue cheese was salty as well, and slightly lumpy and a bit impractical with the way it's served for 6 people to eat. Finally, we noticed our table was very sticky ... I would hope that it would be cleaned well before customers arrive. Apart from this, the servers were amazing and made the night great. SHOUT OUT to Naomi.

Visited on a Sunday afternoon for the Fondue As this is something we can’t get elsewhere we were disappointed by the experience unfortunately. The cheese had clearly split and wasn’t stringy. It was watery or lumpy, and didn’t taste like a normal fondu cheese. We had also had to request our burner relit a few times as it went out … We were then nearly charged for olives we wanted but didn’t get, but the server noticed when he gave me the bill.

Went for a fondue after Christmas Markets, one of our party is gluten intolerant and they made every item we ordered GF. Totally tasty and delicious, a great evening and fantastic service

I can't comment on the food because we only had a drink but the cocktails were exceptional. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. When I complimented the Negroni the mixologist explained that it was made with Select (a Venetian aperitivo from the 1920s) rather than Campari and Lillet Rouge rather than Martini Rosso. It produced a Negroni that was incredibly smooth and displayed perfectly that signature balance between bitter and sweet. The Mews could well become our go-to bar when we're after a cocktail in town. On an evening when we weren't on our way to eat elsewhere I'd also be very interested to try their food. If it's made with the same care and passion as their drinks it's bound to be a winner.

Had a couple of the spicy mango margaritas while we were waiting to go to a party. Oh my days 😍. Will definitely be back to try the fondue 😋

Nice little spot, food was amazing and service was excellent.

Amazing nicest food I’ve ever had. Staff are so lovely

Came for a birthday in a large group and definitely recommend it. Food and drinks really good, great vibe (nicely tucked away from the chaos of the streets) and brilliant service. Couldn't help us enough from the first moment we arrived - thanks so much Sam and Skye!

Lovely chilled restaurant attentive staff and fantastic fondue Thanks for a lovely night will definitely be back

We had the fondue with bottomless drinks, the food and drink was excellent. The staff were very fun and attentive and the atmosphere was a lot more high energy than I was expecting. 10/10

Absolutely 1000/10, service was impeccable and the food was bloody amazing! Something was forgotten for brunch and they went above above and beyond to make up for it when it was not the end of the world. Would 100% recommend coming here and the vibe is perfect.

We had Sunday lunch here recently. It wasn't absolutely perfect, but most of it was very high quality and we're looking forward to going back. + The beef was superb. Beautifully cooked and well rested. Huge sides! They're cheap so you might think they're small and order a few. They're massive. They could charge 3x or 4x as much for the cauliflower cheese. Other places do. Nice atmosphere and staff. Deserves to be busier for Sunday lunch. - Only one minor thing: our Yorkshire puddings were burnt. We were the first table in so they had plenty time to get them right. Pretty criminal. It was the beef that saved it.

Came here for a roast but was a lil disappointed:(. Staff and vibes all LOVELY and can't complain at all about that, but the mains weren't as good as we thought they would be. Had the fried goats cheese starter which was delish and really set the standards high for the roast but unfortunately it wasn't so great. I had the "veggie haggis" which I'm almost 100% sure was actually a quorn roast you just buy in the supermarket. Its not a massive problem cos i like it but it would have been nice to be informed that it wasnt a haggis situation. My yorkshire pudding was burnt and my partners was cold. Carrots were kinda hard and out of the 9 roasties, only about half hit the spot, the rest were a bit hard on the exterior. Would have looooved some more gravy and a bit of pepper, too (I do think if we'd have asked we would have got some pepper to be fair, though). I wonder if maybe a roast isn't exactly their specialty as the starter really was delicious and from pictures online, the charcuterie looks lovely. I wouldn't be put off from trying it again as its a great place with attentive staff, just maybe not for a roast next time.

Previously visited in summer where it was so fantastic I felt the need to return. However, this time the cheese fondue was like grainy, curdled mush and the charcuterie board felt as though they had popped down to the corner shop to supply it. Staff were friendly but not very attentive. Very disappointing considering the first time was so good :-(

The food was very nice. The Bravas sauce wasn't my preference but still good..only losing a star for the tables being sticky.

Our first visit to Mews Bar on a friend's recommendation and it was fab. Lovely attentive staff, delicious dishes and a great ambience. We will be back!

What a great find! Me and my partner came here during the 50% off deal and wow were we surprised. Just a fantastic small spot away from the hustle and bustle of Deansgate. Really simple food done really well. Highlights were the whipped feta and muscles. Chorizo had a honey glaze so was slightly too sweet for my liking but that’s just my preference. Either way all the food was fantastic and would happily come back and pay full price. Service was a tad slow, but the waiter did say before we sat down that they were slightly understaffed tonight so no complaints from us. See you again soon Mews 10/10

Best Sunday dinner in Manchester if you’ve tried all the pretentious places then good for you spend your money but you won’t find a better quality Sunday roast than here

Such a nice little spot and the service was outstanding. Definitely would recommend the mews for small gatherings or date nights

Lovely staff and tasty food, very accommodating, would definitely go again :)

Great wine and delicious food. The owner Sam was lovely and very attentive. Great playlist too! A gem in the centre of Manchester

Sam and the team at the Mews were absolutely incredible in accommodating all of our requests for a wedding after party. They had everything ready when we arrived, and we’re the perfect hosts throughout the evening, in addition to being so responsive and helpful in the lead up. The location was so perfect, honestly could not recommend enough for any private event! We’ve also been for food and it was just perfect, the quality and quantity is just perfect!

Decided to come here with colleagues on a whim and we were positively surprised! Great food and great service, will definitely visit again.

Went on Saturday afternoon. Friendly, attentive staff, nice wine. A little disappointed by cheese fondue , was grainy and not strong enough. Sourdough was tasty though.

Found this place by chance as we were going to the cinema. Lovely location and cool little bar. It wasn't busy after work. Would defo go back

Great cocktails. Immaculate and attentive service. Great atmosphere for a few drinks and you can treat yourself to fondue or a charcuterie board of you're in the mood.

Very expensive for what you get. £19.50 for a cheese board (for 2) consisting of 4 very thin slices of cheese. 8 crackers, 4 pickles and a small pot of chuckney. I could buy a cheese sandwich with the contents of this cheese board for a third of the price. My mind literally boggles how this figure can be put in this quantity of food. I feel well and truly ripped off and as such sadly will not be going here again. Cocktails were good. The staff were all very nice and service was good.

Perfect Services. Lovely food and drinks. Polite and Tentative Staff Will definitely come back to visit.

Great customer service every time! Superb wine selection and great cocktails!

a super lovely little place, staff are friendly, personable and fun! The drinks are delicious, reasonably priced (especially with happy hour). The patatas bravas and Spanish pigs in blankets are absolutely incredible (tried patatas bravas elsewhere and nowhere compares). Music is great, it's got a chilled atmosphere. Highly recommend !

Lovely afternoon experience here. The food was fantastic (even though they didn't have the two dishes we wanted, the tacos and the kebabs) however there was plenty of other stuff to choose from.

very enjoyable Saturday afternoon at this small , friendly venue. tasty snacks and Mahou Spanish lager.

Came here on a sunny Friday recently. It was quite empty, but we saw the reviews and thought, why not? The cocktails are amazing and reasonably priced, especially their before 7pm 2 for 10 cocktails and their special spritz menu. The food menu needs a slight overhaul, even for charcuterie the choices were a bit underwhelming so we didn't order food. The atmosphere was average as despite it being sunny, it was still quite empty and the music wasn't to our taste, however the main let down, and yet main upside was the staff. One lovely cheery girl who was upbeat genuinely made our day and recommended our cocktails and made us laugh so much! She was great, on the other hand, the blonde girl and male made our stay quite short. Between the 3, they all came to ask if everything was okay 7 times within 30 minutes... which although funny to us, began to grate on us too, understandably. We understand they were well meaning, but we didn't feel totally relaxed being constantly talked to and stared at by staff. The staff sit/stand opposite the seating area to smoke and check their phones which came across as a bit unprofessional, I don't know, maybe just us? But surely they could have disappeared down the large stairs nearby if they wanted to smoke? Anyways, the cocktails, great pricing and chilled out atmosphere make this place worth coming to, and although I wouldn't object to coming back again, I'd prefer if it was on a busier day.

Nice little place hidden away on the mews. Friendly and accommodating staff. Fondue is a good choice but remember to order when booking. Fairly decent beer selection - Goose Island Hazy IPA is a good choice.

Great wine and cheese boards. Nice little place hidden off Deansgate. We had a couple of different wines that were all great. The cheese and meat board was good as well and we loved the patatas bravas

Great food and drinks. Good atmosphere

I had an absolutely wonderful time at The Mews for my birthday, where I and a group of friends enjoyed the cheese fondue and bottomless wine package. Even before we arrived we were looked after, the team were super accommodating with transport issues and time changes. Everything from the food to the drinks to the atmosphere was just perfect. We were so impressed - we all agreed that it was the first bottomless ‘brunch’ that was actually bottomless!! Special mention to Sam for making sure that anything we needed at all was taken care of - nothing was too much trouble! Thanks to all the staff working on the evening of Saturday 25th - we had such a brilliant time. 😊

Immaculate vibes, great and friendly service. Food was exactly what we were looking for, snacks after a couple of drinks. Glad it’s open late

I had the pleasure of visiting the Mews over the weekend for the bottomless wine and fondue and I could not recommend it more. The visit was for my mums 60th birthday and we had fantastic service from Tom and Jess. There was plenty of nibbles and fondue, which was extremely tasty. The wine was lovely and our glasses were never left empty! We will definitely be back and I would recommend to anyone!

Loved the food & drink here & service was excellent. Overall nice place to go.

Decor and ambience of the place are quite plain and the place itself hasn’t got much going for it; the quality of the cured meats and cheeses on the boards was good, however value for money is really not the best as they were really quite expensive for what they were. Wine selection is poor and we were not impressed wtih the service - ordered a certain wine and got served a completey different one. I noticed once the wine had already been poured and when questioned, the waiter just said: “yeah we ran out of the other one”. Top tip: you should make the customer aware of the fact their chosen wine is not available before pouring them a completely different one

This is my new favourite find in Manchester. The most pleasant staff you could ask for and a lovely atmosphere. Can't wait to return!

Loved this place, such a nice atmosphere and the staff were amazing! The bottomless fondu was divine and I would highly recommend

Popped in for a rest & drink but the lady who greated us was so confrontational, we decided to go elsewhere

Lovely service and staff. Made us feel welcomed and shoutout to the bartender on shift 22nd October Cheers Tom

Lovely cheese and wine bar. Outdoor seating too which was a perfect sun trap for summer. Did think it was slightly overpriced for what you get. Overall very nice

Good spot and staff are 1st class

Not bad...they made a comment about being a bigger tipper, which got on my nerves.

Lovely wine, bread and cheese. What more could you want?! Would recommend getting the baked camembert 😍 you won't regret it.

The fondue was nice but not substantial enough to accompany bottomless wine - maybe eat a proper meal first and have this after! Bit disappointing for the price, we probably wouldn't do it again.

The bottomless brunch was overpriced and service was slightly chaotic to begin with, it did get better but it was disappointing and I’d give it a miss in the future. The brunch was £35 pp which is the average price in town, the cheese was delicious and you get plenty but the sides were abysmal, all you got were 2!! Slices of salami, a couple of crackers and some scrap ends of bread per person. The bread was nice to be honest and refillable but 2 slices of meat for the price is crazy. Our waitress was quite slow and didn’t know what was included with the brunch, she said we had to pay for beer which wasn’t the case when we read the menu. We didn’t know when we had started the brunch either so it was a slow start. The wine was an alright house wine but the lager was nice however it was just a bit of a let down after seeing how nice it looked on their social media. It didn’t feel like good value for money but they were friendly, attentive in terms of making sure you had drinks it was just the food that really let them down. In my opinion there are much better quality offerings than this particular Bottomless brunch. I don’t think I’d return to try the any other food which is sad.

Supers night in Mews. They catered for our small group perfectly. Nice staff, ambience, reasonable food and drinks. Top marks.

Nice and relaxed place on a Friday. A rare find in this part of Manchester. Staff great, though there was hair in my cheese and a promised discount never arrived. Didn’t grumble as I had an industry discount as well. Will return again.

Great customer service, although only went in for a drink the food smelt and looked tasty

Friendly place but food not good.

Celebrated my birthday there yesterday and had a really good time! Best place on Watson Street and also better than Evuna (I think). Thanks to the very friendly staff who have also been very patient and lovely to the kids we had running around all over the place! Interior is very cosy and they have some good music on. Drinks and food selection is excellent. They provided us with a selection of cheeses and meats and it was great. Will definitely visit again soon.

Amazing cocktails, wine and charcuterie boards. Also the most dog friendly place in the whole of Manchester. The staff are just perfect too!

Really nice bar for a few relaxing drinks and the staff very friendly and attentive

Alright in here you know. Lovely staff and even some live music. I had olives with my wine which was a smashing idea.

Fantastic place great staff just all round good place

Loved it great experience glad we went

Nice tucked away city bar with decent beers and wines and a good happy hour. Some nice grazing boards too.

Very welcoming staff, great boards and a winning happy hour!

What a great find in Manchester. Excellent service and ambience... Great wine choice to go with the meat and cheese boards on offer. Keep up the excellent service..... We will return 👍

Great service, atmosphere, wine, cocktails, cheese & bread boards! Special thanks for the vegetarian considerations. Amie and the crew were really attentive - will be back v. soon!

All the staff are absolutely delightful, especially Amie! Cheese and meat boards were so tasty, would definitely recommend. Cheese/meat board and a bottle of wine is a bargain! Will certainly come again.

Really nice place, great sharing board and cocktail. Our host Isaac was a real gent. Recommended.

Great new bar on Deansgate Mews; lovely cocktails and small plates. Great addition

Class place, class happy hour, class food, class staff.

Great cocktails lovely staff. Particular note to Ben who was super attentive the whole time we were there. The charcuterie boards were great, particularly liked the venison sausage!

What a little gem to find,nice relaxed atmosphere, top staff and nice pint definitely visit again

Great menu and all the cocktails were perfect. The staff were very accommodating of special requests. Lovely terrace.
