Popped in for a drink with an old friend, lovely pub, very spacious. Nice atmosphere. Staff were lovely, I got recommended a Pomelo Spritz cocktail by Katia which I enjoyed. And the food selection is prefect for a midday lunch spot. Would recommend visiting.

Stopped by for drinks before dinner and was a really pleasant experience all round. The pub is lovely with an equally lovely team of staff. In particular, the service was fabulous from Katia, she was very helpful with recommending new drinks to try from the large selection on offer. Will definitely be visiting again.

My partner and I visited this pub for a relaxed drink on a Saturday afternoon. Lovely clientele and the bar staff were so friendly. The bar snacks menu caught our eye, and with 3 snacks for £16 we decided to give it a try. All the food in the pic was only £16 and everything was so fresh and delicious. We'll definitely be back.

We love this bar and always pop in when we go to Manchester, especially at christmas when we've done the markets, but after our recent visit, we will no longer be calling in. I know prices are going up on everything, but £16.95 for a pint and a glass of red wine (and we travel abroad at least a dozen times a year!), this is now the most expensive round we have ever bought in Europe! Including Paris and Norway!

Poor they can’t serve the correct beer in a branded glass. Waiter who brought the beer we ordered off the table order service said they had run out. Lack of effort I would say due to seeing glasses around just not washed. They weren’t silly busy at the time either but charged £6.05 for a Madri with a plain glass. Not on in my world. I asked “ so I get the beer cheaper as no branded glass” and he was embarrassed to say “no”. Get it sorted!! Really is a put off to me.

I hate to write a poor review, but sadly, this was our experience. We were meeting up with our student son for lunch, on a visit from out of the city. On arrival, as soon as myself and my husband went to the bar to order food and drinks, all the staff that we had seen serving others had disappeared. We stood for a good 10 minutes watching staff come and go and were not even acknowledged. Staring at an empty bar for what seemed an age. Eventually someone appeared and without any smile of friendly welcome, grudgingly asked us what we wanted. We were warned that there was a 40 minute wait for food. We had to decide whether to stay and wait, or go elsewhere but it was already a late lunch so we chose to stay. We got through a round of drinks during our wait, but when I went to the bar to order more, I had exactly the same issue. No staff anywhere to be seen - even though I'd seen them a moment ago serving other people. Was it me? I sent my son to wait instead, and a more friendly younger lady came out from the kitchen to serve him. A whole hour and ten minutes passed and we had finished our second drinks, and still no food. My son volunteered to ask about this, as he could see I was getting 'hangry' and didn't want to order any more drinks on an empty stomach. Eventually, the more pleasant young lady brought out our food and apologised for the wait. Hungrily, we tucked into our orders, just grateful to be finally eating. However, while the food was not expensive, it wasn't amazing either - and certainly not worth an hour and ten mins wait: Sandwiches with chips and salad. On a plus note - the chips were very nice. I love the old decor and traditional style of this pub, but I would certaily never eat here again, and as it took so long to even get drinks from a grumpy bar server, I don't think I'd even bother with drinks.

I won a gift card and wanted to treat people in my team at work. I was disappointed by the lady behind the bar that was difficult and didn't want to accept my gift card. The manager had to come before it was checked and verified. I wouldn't come back due to the bar lady. She was unpleasant through the process of ordering and when bringing out the food.

Non si riesce ad ordinare dall'app. e loro non si preoccupano se tu sei al tavolo in attesa. Per contro sono super attenti alle allergie.

After getting off the train in Manchester before meeting other friends before a flight to Riga we called into this nice old traditional pub for a drink and a bite to eat in the centre of the city.

In Manchester on business and the Rain Bar is close to the hotel. From start to finish it was a really great experience. The food was lovely and portions very generous but what sold it was the staff working there and the service they provided. Very friendly and attentive as well as making some good recommendations on the beers available. Pretty quiet on a Wednesday evening but just right for the solo traveller.
