Still probably the best "house" in the city cente. Great beer selection, well maintained. Extensive menu, usually cooked right, service good and ordering on their app' easy. Pleasant interior. Prices of course are a half to third of anywhere else in the city centre.

A very elegant historical grand building which almost gives the impression it could have appeared in a film or television period drama. This very busy pub is rather curious with small dining rooms all over the place on the ground floor and a large open dining area upstairs. The beer was generally quite a bit more expensive than Wetherspoon pubs round here in Lancashire but my beer of choice was a top notch pint and enhanced by it being chilled and that is the first time I have enjoyed a chilled pint in a Wetherspoons pub and I have visited many of them in recent times. If the Waterhouse had an attractive open plan lower floor I would have awarded five stars.

We use this pub quite a lot and it is our favourite Wetherspoons in Manchester. Handily located on Princess Street it is a big place with lots of anti-rooms for you to find a table and enjoy the food and drinks offered. Ideally, try and get a table by the window where you can see the city going about its business which is always entertaining. on this occasion, the service was slow even though the pub was quite quiet but there was only one lady serving. She soon called the others through who seem to be enjoying a bit of a rest but it isn't normally like that. Of course, the drinks are great value for money even if the wine is fairly awful. I'd recommend sticking to that great price bitters and IPAs.

Had a disappointing start by going to The Moon Under the Water. But then went to The Waterhouse, ordered food and coffee refills, unfortunately the food we ordered and paid for was also not in stock. Evie the manager, apologised offered us an alternative with desserts and drinks. She couldn't do enough for us for all the inconvenience. She also waited on us personally, to ensure the service was at the highest standard. Evie, really made it up to us from the disappointment of both pubs, she is absolute credit to the company. I also recognised how hard she works, zipping around the pub, taking care of the customers needs. Will be definitely going there again!

We like just about all the Wetherspoons in the city centre but this is probably our favourite. It is handedly located for Chinatown and other interesting locations. It does get very busy but they seem to keep a lot of stuff on and you usually get served quite quickly. it is no surprise that they have a fantastic range of drinks at fabulous prices for the city centre. It was a sunny day on this occasion so we got our drinks in plastic glasses and went out to the street at the back and enjoyed the sunshine.

The current manager, Anna, is the rudest person I have ever come across in the hospitality industry. They are happy to indulge in sharp practice regarding ordering of food online, and then when a member of staff is prepared to make an offer of refund as an act of good faith, Anne is only too happy to renege on that offer because … well she can. By all means visit this so called pub, but woe betide you if you have cause to complain .

Having visited here twice, the second time I'd of hoped it would of been better. The first time was with friends on a busy Saturday night. The food looked like it had been done hours before (not the best)😬 The second time I came here was through the week, at night. I walked in feeling great, but walked out feeling annoyed to put it mildly. I suffer from spinal cord compression. I couldn't make the toilets upstairs. When I asked to use the disabled toilet by a member of staff, clearly limping, he replied " you don't have to fake a limp to use the disabled toilet" 😯 I was furious that he implied I was doing this!😡 My reply was...I wish I was mate! I'm actually in alot of pain. This in my opinion, is a severe misjudgement of someone with a disability. And what's more, is this member of staff looked like he had a managerial role.😡I was clearly limping, and at the time in alot of pain! My question is, what would be said for all the people with non visible disabilities?? Very disappointing. Won't come back here again.

When we come away for the weekend wetherspoons breakfast is a must! Tried this one for a change today as opposed to our usual and were really disappointed. Drinks served really quickly as usual but 25 mins later no sign of the food but 3 tables around us who came and ordered after us had all been served and finished. Chased up at the bar to be told it would be out in a minute. 10 minutes later and 3 of the 4 breakfasts appeared. The missing breakfast turned up after a further 5 mins after having to chase again. No apology from the servers for the wait. Food was lovely but cool as if had been stood a while which is a shame. Overall disappointed with the level of service and will stick to our usual from now on.

Popped in for a coffee on our long walk around Manchester and were pleasantly surprised. A Wetherspoons by name and a Wetherspoons by appearance, service, food, drinks, right down to the furniture and uniquely dreadful carpet. We found a table, sat down to enjoy our £1.25 refillable coffee and enjoyed the experience. Not too busy when we visited, there was room to relax and have a private chinwag before we toddled off on our merry way to see more of the sights and sounds of Manchester. Recommended.

We came in yesteday, its a nice place. There was abit of a mix up with the food order, which was corrected quickly and professionally, so not a problem as these things happen and it was busy. But my 5 star review is for my mum, she didn't get the member of staffs name but we feel she deserves recognition. My mum has mobility issues but always feels embarrassed to ask for the disabled toilet key, she tried to make it up the stairs when a member of staff spotted her struggling, helped her back down (she only got halfway up) and unlocked the downstairs toilet for her. It may not seem like a big thing but it's not very often you get that sort of kindness in a busy restraunt environment. Thank-you for helping my mum.

This is a place we call in every so often and you know what you get. It is a busy Wetherspoons on Princess Street and therefore is well located. The service can be a bit hit or miss to be honest and sometimes you have to wait quite awhile to be served. Other times though it is fine and you get the usual range of excellent drinks at reasonable prices. It was a beer festival on our latest visit which was really good and had even more variety than normal. It can be a bit difficult to find a seat sometimes as it's so busy but it's still worth a visit and it has a nice relaxed atmosphere
