Genuinely one of the best meals I've eaten in Manchester! Between 3 of us, we shared 3 starters, the platter for 2, and a side of chips. Generous portions, delicate flavours, everything we ate was delicious. Excellent service. It was less than £45 a head with drinks, so amazing value as well. 100% would return!

Amazing restaurant! We enjoyed the seafood platter, oysters, and desserts—raspberry crème brûlée and sticky toffee pudding. The food was fresh, perfectly cooked, and incredibly flavorful. What sets this place apart is their use of charcoal grilling, which elevates the taste of everything to a whole new level. I can't wait to go back!

Found a gem-level gourmet restaurant. It only takes ten minutes to take an Uber from the city center to the restaurant, which is very convenient and a level worthy of returning. The four of us ordered oysters and salt-and-pepper squid as appetizers for dinner, and the main dish was angler fish cooked in seafood mixed with sauce, plus charcoal-grilled broccoli and French fries. We ordered a few non-alcoholic drinks. Every dish is delicious and delicious. The service is very attentive and friendly. What is a little surprising is that the boss (probably) speaks Cantonese and understands it well. He has such a friendly attitude. It is easy to understand that so many Hong Kong people have helped here before. This restaurant experience is a surprise, I will try its other dishes next time👍🏻

We found this restaurant through searching by location and it was a real find. Delicious food, tempting menu with friendly and efficient (but relaxed) service and great ambience. We overheard a fellow guest, who is obviously a regular, say it is one of the best restaurants in Manchester and we’d agree. Would be worth the effort to travel from a more central location.

The food at The Oystercatcher is simply delicious. My son and his girlfriend treated my wife and I to a dinner, it was a great evening out with really good food and the service was superb. I highly recommend this establishment. We shared the seafood platter, would also recommend this dish.

Brilliant little fish place in Chorlton. A real gem. Fantastic fresh fish with lovely sides and a nice wine list, all for quite reasonable prices given the quality of the food. I had the whole sea bream with broccoli and tzatziki - excellent. Lovely bottle of French Viognier to drink. The cheeseplate from Chorlton Cheesemongers was outstanding as well.

I first came here about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I was with three colleagues who generally stick to food from their own country. I did the ordering and we had a mix of plates and I can safely say it was all devoured! This week, I returned with my wife and brother-in-law. We nibbled on the olives and padron peppers then on to starters. Scotch eggs (a portion each for my wife and me) and cured salmon taco for Jack. To mains, fish & chips, tandoori monk fish and a mixed platter for 1. A bottle of Malbec and sparkling water Everybody thoroughly enjoyed their food (with perhaps the exception of the flatbread that forms the taco which had an unusual flavour) and again, it was devoured. The staff are great and the restaurant has a relaxing, informal atmosphere. This eatery is well recommended. If you are driving, allow yourselves extra time to find parking. It is tight and you may have to park a few minutes’ walk away. Update 1st August 2024 Came back on Tuesday, four of us this time and again it was very good.

Absolutely shocking service. 2 items listed on the menu were missing from our order. The manager was incredibly rude and dismissive, he just didn’t care. Eventually offered a refund ‘if you bring everything back and don’t order from us ever again.’ Even the waitress sounded shocked that he wasn’t prepared to apologise or help rectify the mistake.

We had a very nice lunch here on Sunday. All fish dishes we had were delicious, including the 'Fish and Chips' costing £17. Also if you don't know Chorlton, Oystercatcher is neighbour to lots of other quirky bars and it isn't too difficult to find street parking a few minutes walk away.

We often dine in the oyster catcher and it has never disappointed! We love telling people about this place and bringing them to share the joy that we have when dining here! The food has always been 10/10. It’s small inside but we love that, it feels incredibly cosy. This time around we had multiple starters: scallops, curried muscles (these were unreal) oysters, padron peppers, anchovy crostini and every single starter was amazing. I had the BBQ tandoori monkfish as a main and it was cooked to perfection. Not a single complaint about any of the meals. This place is a true hidden gem I would highly recommend eating here! Lovely service, cosy atmosphere, amazing seafood and the best part it’s not ridiculously overpriced

Oyster Catcher is a must if you like your seafood! My partner and I went twice last year and have a booking for this week that we can’t wait for. The first time we went we tried our own separate dishes and loved everything we had. The second time we had the sharing platter and were blown away by how incredible everything was. The oyster catcher sharing platter has become a meme in our house because we both daydream about it so much and bring it up so often. Staff have always been very friendly and there’s a nice chill atmosphere in there too.

We had the oysters which were lovely followed by scallops. These were very disappointing, they were described as being served in the shell. We had a shell with three tiny scallops with a diameter less than a one pence piece. We should have sent them back but didn’t want to upset the waitress. These scallops were like the tiny frozen ones. If they had run out of fresh scallops I would have preferred to have been told. The mains were nice, my husband enjoyed the fish and chips. The wine was more expensive than elsewhere. The decor was basic. The service was friendly

Christmas Eve meal for me and my partner with our 4 year old. Food was outstanding, our best meal of the year. We went classic with whole bream and a plaice - they were magnificent, the salsa Verde was another level. Triple cooked chips were proper and the fennel gratin was so classy. Our little one had a ball, she told the lovely waitress to tell the chef her kids meal was the best fish fingers she'd ever had. Loved it!

We visited the restaurant in Sale, to make a booking. A waitress asked us which day we want? As soon as we said that we wanted to make a booking for New Year's and birthday, a person came who said he was the boss. He refused to book us face to face. He wanted us to make reservations online. We asked him for a card to enter the website online, but he again refused to give it to us. He kept repeating that we should book online. Meanwhile, the guy who he had an attitude problem: Recep Canliisik, pretended to be Italian while he is Turkish. [I wonder why he hides the fact that he is Turkish]. And why his staff wanted to made a booking face to face. But he contradict them and he insisted that we have to make reservations online. It is his loss. Now he lost an office party booking with 10 people

Thanksgiving dinner at the oystercatcher in Tampa/Clearwater area was awesome. The food was delicious and with a twist of oysters appetizers on the menu for Thanksgiving dinner. The employees were good. Only thing they could have done differently was decorating the table with a table cloth and few flowers or just with fall colored leaves to make it look festive. The tables were plain and absolutely nothing on them. We overlooked or ignored that part just to be able to enjoy the day and the event. We appreciated their time and efforts to work hard the day before and on the day of Thanksgiving to serve us one of the most important festive meals of the year.

The Oystercatcher is situated in Chorlton cum Hardy and is around half a mile on foot from Chorlton tram stop. We had walked from the Hilton Garden Inn at Old Trafford which is around a mile away. We arrived at the restaurant just after opening time on a Monday evening at around 5.15 and it was empty so we were able to easily acquire a table. We had looked in the previous evening and it was pretty busy so I imagine it is best to book in advance. We had Cape Wrath oysters to start, turbot in a gazpacho sauce with grilled lettuce for main and a selection of cheese for dessert. The oysters and turbot were really good. I was a little dubious about the grilled lettuce but that worked too. I had order a side dish of mushy peas which were fine although not really necessary. The three cheeses were tasty as well. To drink, we had a pleasant bottle of white Rioja and I had a brandy liquor coffee post meal. Service was really good and there was a pleasant atmosphere in this cosy restaurant. The bill for two was around £155 including service.

This was our third visit to the restaurant. It was nice to see them busy on a midweek evening but that does increase the overall noise level which, at times, meant I found it difficult to hear my partner. Still, there was the prospect of decent food to concentrate on. Squid rings came in a light, crisp batter and were very tender– really good. There was a scattering of spring onion and red chilli. And a sauce that may have been the ponzu mentioned on the menu but didn’t have the expected citrus hit. Nicely cooked scallops came baked on the half shell, with a dab of cauliflower puree and sprinkling of gremolata. For mains, there was a perfectly cooked fillet of hake, the flesh just coming apart in big white flakes. Also on the plate, a grilled courgette – some may have said this was burnt, but it was tasty enough (so probably a deliberate long cooking). And there was a dollop of sogulme – a Turkish puree of aubergine and red peppers. Delicious in its own right, it may have been too assertive a flavour for the delicate fish. If that dish had too strong a seasoning, then BBQ’d monkfish could have done with more. It was advertised as “tandoori BBQ”, so you might have expected a good kick from Asian spices but it was all very muted. That came with a simple chopped kachumber salad – onion, cucumber and the like. And, served separately, a dish of fennel gratin which was lovely but didn’t really fit with the Asian feel of the dish. We both took an order of fries – nice and crispy. So, an OK dinner, although one where flavours missed the mark on more occasions than you’d like. Literally, while I was drafting this review, I heard of another seafood restaurant in Greater Manchester. We’ll go and try that one and the one in Wilmslow before we think of returning to the Oystercatcher.

I had a fantastic dining experience at The Oystercatcher, a delightful seafood restaurant. The simplicity of its decor creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The star of the show, however, is undoubtedly the food. Their oysters were a highlight for me – fresh, succulent, and served with just the right touch of accompaniments. The grilled whole seabream was a true masterpiece, cooked to perfection with a delightful flavor. The octopus dish also left a lasting impression, tender and bursting with flavor. The service was top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff who added to the overall pleasant atmosphere. Perhaps most impressively, the prices were reasonable, considering the quality of the seafood and the dining experience.In conclusion, if you're a seafood enthusiast looking for a simple yet exquisite dining experience, The Oystercatcher should be at the top of your list. From oysters to seabream, and their inventive specials, it's a seafood lover's paradise.

- tabbouleh £4 - skin on fries £4.50 - beer battered fish and chips £16 - seafood platter £58 the menu states the platter serves 2 but it is so huge it could honestly feed 3 alone. you get loads of grilled seafood, including squid, a whole seabream, tiger prawns, mussels, as well as hispi cabbage and tenderstem broccoli! it was all cooked to perfection and i liked how the seasonings were kept simple so you can really taste the freshness of the seafood. we also got the beer battered fish and chips which exceeded my expectations. again, it was a massive portion and the chips in particular were HUGE! the beer batter was crispy and light whilst the fish on the inside was flakey. it was easily some of the best f&c i’ve ever had! the restaurant is quite small with most tables only seating 2-4 people so it would be very cramped for big groups. servers were friendly and down to earth too :)

First time in C-C-H and went for lunch in the Oystercatcher. Nice joint. Low key decor and a short menu. Perfect combo for what what you need from for an independent, high street fish restaurant. The waiter told us the chefs were Indian and British. The food didn’t disappoint. The grilled octopus starter and kedgeree scotch egg were lovely. Special was Lemon Sole (only criticism was the sole seemed a either over cooked or old - it didn’t ‘flake’, it ‘mushed’ off the bone - it was tasty and we didn’t say anything at the time - so this is just a reflection). The Hake with spicy aubergine was delicious. Recommend for a Saturday lunch. Ahoy!

Little cute restaurant with brilliant food. The food was fresh and tasted great. The prices are more then average but it is worth it. We have spend £100+ for two people and bottle of wine. The octopus was nice but really small portion and it costs nearly same price as a main.

Amazing food, good prices too. We had the sharing platter and it was so much food, quality was excellent too. The brownies were far too dry but the other food more than made up for that.

First time at the Oystercatcher after several friends recommended it... It did not disappoint and was honestly the best food I have had in some time. Everything was delicious - we had the prawn and salt and pepper squid starters, bbq tandoori monkfish, & raspberry creme brulee. With it being seafood of course the menu is on the pricier side but for the quality, (and portion size) well worth it. Service was also attentive and friendly. Look forward to our 2nd visit!

Whenever I work in this area, I always go to Waterside Cafe on Redhill St Manchester 4. Appropriately named, this delightful, clean, welcoming cafe sits by the canal. Inside it is very clean with an extensive light meal/snack menu. There are deep settees to relax in or chairs and tables. People sit with their newspapers or laptops. The owners are so helpful, friendly and accommodating. My favourite thing is the goat's cheese panini which is really good quality. Go there, it's a lovely place.
