The Waldorf in Manchester

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. I had the chicken and bacon club sandwich on baguette with chips at £9.50 with an alcoholic drink which was plentiful and delicious on this lunchtime special.

Met a group of friends from overseas in here for a few drinks & monster munch The bar staff were brilliant and Dan was just lovely and so helpful. Good pub_great staff ❤️

This is a quality Manchester pub. A great place to watch live sport. Staff are friendly and welcoming, atmosphere is top class. Food is not elaborate and doesn't need to be. It's decent pub grub. Beer quality is top class. Great place.

Hidden gem in Manchester, atmosphere brilliant and friendly...Ollie made amazing cocktails, made us laugh, great barman in the making..highly recommend..Will be back!!🍾🎉🎊..won't be back to the malmaison staff were rude, unfriendly and overpriced!

£17.60 for 3 pints. Ridiculas price and a complete rip off. There are pubs nearby which are 30% cheaper for the same drinks. Not right that pubs rip off customers like this.

Nice little pub in a good location. Staff are all friendly, there’s some nice space for larger groups and the drink options are varied at good prices. Toilets are downstairs and there’s plenty of screens throughout if you’re wanting to follow the sport. I’ll be back!

We went on a Friday night just before the kitchen closed. Our son was coming from the airport to meet us and was a bit late. They still made him a meal after he arrived. Food and atmosphere was great. Everything you’d want in an English pub.

Rude management, beer off, toilet facilities too bad to describe, wanted to eat but saw the uneaten remains on uncleared tables and thankfully passed.

Came in for a quick bite to eat, there is a short menu and went for the standard cheese burger. Good range of beers here which well kept. The menu states you get a free drink with a burger - but apparently not in the evening. Burger was fine - not alot of chips but it’s a reasonable price - would recommend.

I used to visit The Waldorf occasionally, especially when I had an office on Piccadilly. Then it was closed for a while (refurb' and Covid), however recently I got a surprise gift from the pubco of a round of drinks for six, so as I was intending to meet a group of friends for drinks before Xmas I made a booking. The choice of drinks was limited, but who looks a gift horse in the mouth! The staff were very helpful and things all went off smoothly, despite the pub being very busy (as one would expect on a Friday before Xmas). There were three real ales (the included Doom Bar had all gone (NO alternative offered)) and the difficult to keep Timothy Taylor Landlord was in excellent condition. There was a short but good menu. Prices were typical of city centre pubs and bars, at just over £5 per pint. Alas, whilst the refurb had significantly improved the pub, muzak, lots of people and a lack of soft surfaces made it nigh impossible to hold a conversation with more than one other person at once, even after we moved to a corner. Reluctantly we moved on to the nearby Hilton (our usual haunt every month or two), so whilst very grateful for the offer, as a promotion it was unsuccessful. We are likely to try again though on a weekday evening in a month or so.

Great pub. Enjoyed an evening with a friend here, our second visit. Great food and drinks and lovely friendly service. All staff go above and beyond to make their customers feel welcome. Thank you, we will be back :-)

So I had a great time at the Waldorf tonight. Got served by a queen called Big Declan, who slayeddddd! 100% coming back as it was Gucci x

This bar is very very good very nice friendly staff Justin and Dan are very nice and go above and beyond to make it a beautiful atmosphere they never make u rush u drinks The drinks are very nice and tasty This is our favourite place thank u guys From Zaynab , Andrew and out chihuahua prince Xx

Food was lovely and Dan makes an amazing cocktail. He was very helpful when trying to decide what decide what drinks we wanted. Music is awesome too. Deffo worth a visit

Came Sunday night for some drinks & food with work colleagues , lovely food here too and a shout out to Dan for his great customer service , shame he supports Man City tho.. lol

Popped in with family for some food last night and some drinks. Food was spot on! & the cocktails were so nice 2 for 1 aswell ! Fantastic service by the barman Dan so polite , The pub was so clean and well run. I will definitely be returning.

The food was excellent and the beers was very good and the service was excellent like to thank Dan who look after us

The staff here are what makes this place special. We stopped in looking for dinner options for a member of our party who has a severe dairy allergy. Right away, the gentleman behind the bar put us at ease, gave us their food binder from behind the bar to review for ingredients, and had recommendations based on his own restrictions (which were delicious and properly prepared with no cross contamination, so all were able to enjoy a meal). The steak pie was one of the best I've had in the UK! He was very attentive and came over several times for friendly banter and to make sure that everything was ok. I wish I had gotten his name...I loved the vibe and local color of this place as well.

Booked the upstairs room here at The Waldorf for a tweet up celebrating a 10 year anniversary of listening to Forgotten 80s radio show. 35 of us had a brilliant time! The room accommodated all of us comfortably and we even had our own bar and staff for drinks and food ordering. We held a quiz and even had a disco because there was a dance floor. It was the perfect venue. We had to put down a £100 deposit to hold the room for us but if 30 people showed up then we would get that £100 back in drinks on the night. Everyone had a great time and we will definitely come back because Piccadilly station was a stones throw away. With people arriving from as far as Glasgow and Cornwall the location was paramount . Thanks so much to all the staff, we will be back!!

Amazing, food choices are awesome. Beers are all good. Food is great and well cooked, and made. Popular, Shows Football Games and others, Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We came to manchester for the weekend and came across the waldorf pub and came in for an event called the mg blues which was such a good night, we will defeat back

Came down for the MG blues event that we were told about from some friends, was a lovely night with some great music aswell.

Came to visit Manchester from Leeds with my husband and wanted to have a couple of drinks and some lunch when we first arrived. What a cosy gem of a pub we found here! The staff were very friendly at the bar and we both ordered fish and chips which was really amazing. Will definitely recommend to friends for their Manchester visit!

I came here with a friend last week to play chess and at the end of the night a member of staff was carrying stock through an open fire door. (which I would assume is against fire regulations to start with) We had no idea it was a fire door and walked out of it into the street. We were spoken to like dirt as if we had committed the crime of the century. When I pointed out it was a genuine mistake and the door shouldn't be open, the thug seemed to want to create a confrontation. I was going to let it go but I subsequently find out that he complained about us to the chess club we are members of there. So I won't be back. A great shame as I previously left a good review of this pub and spent a lot of money behind their bar. Avoid like the plague. They do not know how to customers.

Nice little vibe to the place very homely I decided to try some food. I went for the burning hot burger meal. Came piping hot and certainly did test my taste buds. Thanks to Ian and Justin for your hospitality

Nice pub in a pleasant busy location 2 mins walk from Picadilly Station. Decent menu with a nice selection, spotted a customer being served up a Lamb Chop and it was large. Opted for the Chop and I wasn't disappointed, very filling and beautifully presented....

Me and my wife were in Manchester for a meeting so decided to call in for a bite to eat as it has great reviews. The guy who served us was very friendly and polite. We were advised certain items were missing from the menu...

What a great little pub just by Piccadilly train station. Serves a delightful range of products so something for everyone

What a lovely little pub down a side street off the main road. We were in Manchester for the day due to the football match. First time in Manchester we was looking for somewhere to eat and we was checking everywhere but all full so...

What a delightful little pub to come for a nice bit of food. Lots to choose from on the menu and a great selection of drinks also

What a cracking few drinks I had in the Waldorf Dan and Ilan bossing it top guys will visit again very soon

What a superb pub situated close to Piccadilly station and gardens.. We popped in on a lunchtime for a drink and some food and we’re met with a warm welcome. Drinks were quickly dispensed with plenty of choices if you want real ale or spirits....

Exactly what I needed - quick easy bite of food and a pint before my train home. Looks tucked away but is 2min walk from piccadilly station. Perfect.

Went with friends, staff really helpful and friendly, special mention to Ian, Justin, Jorge, Jay, Dan and Shirley. Also the food was superb! I would recommend to anyone visiting Manchester!

Great pub, lovely grub… Fine selection of beers on tap and lovely atmosphere to go with it. Will most definitely be back.

We were very pleased when we went to The Waldorf. They have an excellent selection of drinks, good food and the staff were happy to help reccomend the best ones to us.

Visited recently and will certainly return frequently. Great food, great beer and friendly and attentive staff. 100% would recommend.

What a fantastic little place. The beers on tap are plentiful, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is on point. What’s not to like?!

Before Covid hit, we always used to have a couple of drinks in this pub when stopping in Manchester and made good use of the Monday night special offer on certain beers. The atmosphere was always good and we accept that they show live sports...

Great pub , Staff are brilliant , everything was spot on. & that steak wow no words! Great job guys! 100% be back again!

We visited The Waldorf for afternoon drinks before a concert. It has a lovely relaxed atmosphere and we decided to order food. My husband had steak which he said was really nice, tasty and great value for money. I had gammon which was very nice...

Popped in for a pint and proper fish & chips. Enjoyed the food, the pub, and staff really kind. Get the mushy peas too!

I think I counted about 17 different taps of beers to choose from!! This didn’t include what was also in the fridges, lovely pub and friendly atmosphere, will certainly be back again

Great pub/ restaurant with friendly staff! Clean and comfortable atmosphere. The burger was the best I’ve had in a while! Close to Piccadilly station and the gay village.

The bar staff were really nice and happy to recommend particular BEERS . Worth calling in if you're in the area and looking for a quiet pint.

So went in this place not a fan of dogs it was like battersby but that on me manager was very drunk asking one of are party to step outside for a consultation before his girlfriend stepped in to defflat the situation very unprofessional and...

This place is great! It probably had more than 15 beers on tap to choose from so you are never short of options and the food was fab too.

This place used to be one of my favourite boozers every time we came to visit Manchester, last couple of times we’ve been in the music is obnoxiously loud… feels like a tacky Yates atmosphere… If your hoping for a wide selection of beers there...

I have to say this place has improved massively with the new management. The selection of beers is excellent now and the pub seems to get nicely busy on a regular basis which gives a great atmosphere especially when the footy is on. Special mention...

Staff are friendly and competent, the food and drinks are excellent, situated in the heart of Manchester with near by public transport… recommended

A friendly pub, with good food, lovely staff and brilliantly situated close to Piccadilly. Highly recommended.

Popped in here to meet with friends on a strict 1 hour lunch break so booked the table in advance really easily on the Waldorf online booking service (where you can pre order drinks too!). Greeted by super friendly staff and given a choice of...

Always love visiting this pub especially when the football is on as they have multiple screens. Fantastic selection of ales, really friendly staff and the Katsu Chicken is my favourite on the menu it's so yummy. Also dog friendly which is a bonus :)

This is a lovely pub. It wasn’t super busy probably because it was Easter Sunday evening, but still felt friendly. Nice decor. The staff was lovely and friendly.

I popped in for dinner my first night in Manchester. Food was good, staff was alright and the beer, too. A popular spot as it was quite crowded. I would've gone back had I stayed longer in Manchester.

What a nice place to visit if you’re ever in Manchester. It has a delightful charm too it and definitely shouldn’t be missed

Packed to the gills with people swilling beer and watching sport on the television, but still has a great atmosphere and decent drinks, with very pleasant bar staff. A nice little set-aside area was perfect for a chat and you can't help but like the...

what a superb gem this place is you must not walk by it. Friendly staff Dan behind the bar was top and the food cooking ny chef Nick with so much love put in and the food qualify showed this. Pint of Tropper spot on...

Terrible ….. busy pub with “restaurant” upstairs. Signage is poor and unclear as the “restaurant” is in the function room! The young lady, although very pleasant, was very attentive to her friend at the end of the bar! The bar wasn’t very well stocked, messy...

Charming little pub with plenty of character. Probably the best cheese burger I have had in a long time also, will definitely be back!!

Good friendly pub with super staff. Nice Rose wine and good atmosphere with proper people enjoying a drink or two. Give it a try,

This bar is a hidden gem. Great service & tasty food which you enjoy in a warm friendly atmosphere. We had lunch from the “small plates” menu & this I would highly recommend if you want a tasty selection served in an appetising manner. Highly...

Just wanted to come on here and say the food and service was fantastic! Proper grub and friendly staff that were always on hand to help. Thanks very much!

Love this place, come here quite often and never had bad food. We always have good service here. I would highly recommend coming here.

Just passing by and saw the great mural outside. Lovely local pub, really friendly. And how can you resist two for one cocktails at £10? They were so well made too. Just a really nice pub.

We went to this pub after taking part of all the excellent reviews of it. Have to say though that we don’t understand the hymns at all. Lazy service and a shabby expression in total.

Good pub, good beer, great staff.. we had a great time, only nipped in for one.... stayed all day ..

Fantastic service from my favourite barmaid, Miss Lauren Perchard - 10/10, would definitely let her bring my pint over again!

Visited The Waldorf today .. .. excellent service , well looked after by Charlie. Nice friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend. Great selection of flavoured gins, great value will return .

Visited recently and all of the staff were really accommodating, there was a really good atmosphere. The host Josh W was really friendly as were all of the bar staff - great service and would definitely recommend a visit!

Love this pub! Its great place to watch the footy and the drinks and new cocktails are always great. The staff are always wonderful when I come in and the food hits the spot!

Josh, josh and josh were fantastic with us. The food was great and we really enjoyed our time. The host Charlie went above and beyond.

Great little pub, super friendly staff, banging food, value for money. Highly recommended! Will definitely visit again

I am so satisfied with this pub! I know you hear this all the time “I don’t review places” but really I never do. Overall though, 5/5 stars for these guys! Amazing food and drinks, super speedy with the service and they’re so so friendly!...

After a very pleasant evening in town visiting a beautiful restaurant with my son , I was suddenly caught short and required a much needed pit stop. I enquired as to the facilities at The Waldorf, having frequented the establishment on many previous and highly...

The Waldorf is pub located in the heart of Manchester city centre and just a short walk away from Piccadilly train station, the northern quarter and city centre shops/Arndale centre. The pub offers a full menu for food which i have had but can't fully...

Came across this pub whilst looking for somewhere to watch live football! Visited on the Saturday with my daughter to watch the game after reserving a table. Had a few drinks and a bite to eat - thoroughly enjoyed it. All actions necessary were carried...

A great pub, close to the train station. The prices are fair, especially for the location, and the staff are friendly and very welcoming. They made us feel welcome right away and are all trying their best to ensure the safety of the customers. Good...

A good pub, with a good selection of lager and ales as well as some draft and bottle ciders. Can’t comment on the food but a good atmosphere and friendly staff. Not a bad price considering proximity to the train station.

In light of COVID-19 I think there was some fears within our party over how different pubs were going to put measures in places to keep customers safe. However, not only did we feel safe as customers, I truly believe the staff felt safe working...

Beer: Good Food : Delicious Staff: Friendly I would definitely return and happily recommend. Steak and ale pie was top notch and gravy was super thick. Perfect.

I visited on 5-2-20 with my dad and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable. We got served by Josh who was so friendly and knew exactly what he was talking about, so nice to have a bartender who can help customers. Jess was also a...

Visited today for lunch. I must say that what really impressed me was the staff. The lady at the counter was smiling and very helpful with the menù choice. She even came to our table after being served to check meal appreciation. I would definitely...

Visited this place yesterday lunchtime. It was about 11.00 am and there was only two customers. By 1.00 pm the place was buzzing and the atmosphere was great. We intended to just have one pint of TT but the staff were so friendly and the...

Have recommended this place loads of time Unfortunately the menu has changed by head office We ordered dirty chips which last Jan were £5 Today £8.50 and bloody awful Won't be back again

Great for some quick pub grub... as long as it isn't too busy as it was when I was there because tehy forgot my order entireyl, brought nothing out for an hour andd ended getting my money back because i had waited an hour and 20 minutes!

Called here over the new year period as it was close to our hotel , they serve nice beer and the customer care is excellent as i was served a pint that was a little cloudy and the barman came over and changed it without any prompting so cant fault it at all ,, a very friendly pub and good atmosphere, well worth a visit

Stopped for sit down and a drink. Lovely little pub with nice interior but was so noisy, lots of pre christmas drinkers! Friendly staff.

So glad we chose this place to get our taste of local flair. The fish and chips are excellent and the atmosphere of this place is great. Highly recommend.

Stumbled onto ( or into!) the Waldorf pub by accident but so pleased we did. Very friendly landlord serving excellent cask beer in very cozy surroundings. The menu was typical pub food but very tasty with steak & ale pie highly recommended along with the pigs in the blanket, sticky chicken wings & Whitby scampi. Great atmosphere, extremely friendly, excellent beer selection with quality food. What more could be expected from a pub? Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere especially when the two sexy guys are at the end of the Bar about 1600 till 1700 Great place

We found the Waldorf in a back street while we were on route to our Holiday Inn Hotel. We popped in for an afternoon drink and it was cosy and quiet.We decided to revisit in the evening for a bar meal and were very surprised to see it buzzing with so many people. The atmosphere was great and we enjoyed fish and chips washed down with some excellent Ale. This is a little Gem amongst the giant chains.

Visited yesterday with 3 work mates for a drink & food at lunch, very busy but managed to squeeze in to the last table available. Probably say for one of the group the food was very nice (hotdog), two of us had ham & cheese toasties & chips which were OK, other colleague had some Mexican type dish & again OK.

Nice pub near Picadilly station. Staff is frendly and good chioce of tap beer. Nice place for drink some beer.

Visited this City bar yesterday Saturday 17th August Smart Pub, clean tidy, but the food, was diabolical for £9, for value worse than the Ritz, quaity of food not up to a Road side caravan and that being harsh to roadside vendors

dropped in here a few times over our weekend, Really good bar for a few drinks, Friendly staff , Especially the Barman from Tyrone.

El pub estaba lleno de gente, pero no demasiados esperando en el bar.

Contratamos el salón de actos privado de arriba para un evento de caridad. Esto fue gratis con solo un depósito de 50 para asegurar la reserva. El lugar es muy accesible y está cerca de la estación de tren de Piccadilly. Desde el principio, el personal fue muy amable y servicial al organizar el evento, se mantuvieron en contacto y configuraron la sala exactamente como se solicitó. La habitación se ajusta fácilmente a nuestros 50 huéspedes y hay un bar en la habitación que estuvo abierta toda la noche. El personal fue excelente en la noche, y todo el evento fue muy bien. Gracias por una gran noche!

Great little pub just off the main streets and close to Picadilly Station. We stopped here to pass a couple of hours and had a few drinks and some food. Staff were polite and friendly and the food was lovely. Would stop here again.

Only popped in for a few beers before and after a concert. What blew us away of all things is how friendly the door staff were.
