Saturday lunchtime, was told there was no table, we could see one and then got seated. Waited 20 minutes for tea and coffee after ordering and a full hour for cooked breakfast. Shocking service. Breakfast was lukewarm but didn’t complain in case replacement took another hour.

There was a queue forming behind us when we came in, staff was not acknowledging anyone. When we enquired if there would be a table available the staff member was a bit short with us and we were told to wait. I get the feeling that this is not a nice place to work, perhaps? When we were seated nobody took our order for a long time, when someone finally took our order we got an apology and we got the drinks we ordered for free for waiting for so long, which was nice. It would've been even nicer if they were served before the food arrived, and not pretty much after we finished eating. Honestly, the food was nice, but I am not sure what's going on with the service here? Everyone seemed nice, but are they being held hostage? Do they not want to be there? The people who were queueing behind us were just told to leave. Some people who were given a table left because it took so long to be served. It didn't seem super busy, maybe there wasn't enough kitchen staff? A little communication would go a long way.

The food just was not good. Bones in the pork belly. And the prosciutto crudo had the thinnest scraping of truffle tapenade on it. Service wasn’t great. But the live singer was fantastic.

Tables were not well cleaned food was not of the quality prices demanded. but most annoying of all was on paying by card a tip was asked for on top of a service charge. Happy to tip and happy to pay a service charge but it’s a bit insulting being asked to tip when a service charge is included especially when a service charge is supposed to do away with the awkwardness of the tipping system.

I waited for 20 min to order and the venue was at 50% capacity. The steak wasn't soft at all, and I struggled to chew it, chimmichuri dressing was great though. Turkish eggs were really nice. Very average food and be ready to stay for at least one hour when it's not busy.

Vino a tomar una copa y esperaba que no estuviera demasiado ocupado para conseguir comida. Encontramos una cabina y conseguimos un par de cervezas £ 12 para mahou, el lugar es bastante grande un montón de lugares para sentarse, pidió comida en el bar, había 2 personas siendo atendidas antes que yo, cuando una de las personas antes de mí había recibido su orden la camarera fue al final del bar con un par de otros que presumí que trabajaba allí y sacó su teléfono, me sentí un poco ignorado, si era cosas de trabajo que simple no será un minuto ayudaría. Volvió y me preguntó si me estaban viendo, obviamente no porque la otra licitación del bar todavía estaba con la gente a la que estaban sirviendo y yo era el único allí. De todos modos, pedí alitas de pollo y meze. La comida tomó un tiempo nos bebimos nuestras pintas y estaba en segundo lugar antes de que saliera, sin quejarme de que no me gusta cuando la comida sale rápido, pero si tienes prisa entonces puede que no sea el lugar. La comida era increíble, plato grande, un montón de patatas fritas, pero las patatas fritas sabían muy bien, pimientos padrón, falafal, ensalada, pan estaba muy bueno y las alitas de pollo eran encantadoras también. Solo creo que no me gustaba el dip de menta, era muy dulce como el helado de menta pero a mi otra mitad le gustó. Gran relación calidad-precio también antes de propinas la comida era £ 23

I’ve rated this low because the breakfast/brunch we ordered was less than average and the table was sticky and so were the menus. The burgers my kids and husband ordered were good but I’m not sure I’d go there again just for the burgers.

Avoid Took 25 minutes for our drinks to come, after 20 minutes I had to ask where they were. A member of staff came over and apologised and said she had to make them as they were never made. She apologised and said they were took of the bill. Secondly, I went to the toilets while waiting and wow I’ve never seen toilets like it… the smell was horrendous and they were extremely unclean which then made me put of eating my food. After 55 minutes of waiting I asked if they could check where the food is and at this point it came out. The chips were cold on both mine and my mums plate but we didn’t want to wait for more chips to come out after the long wait. Eventually, a member of staff came over and apologised for the long wait and then took the food of the bill to. I won’t be returning due to the bad experience and after looking at other reviews it seems like it’s a universal experience.

Very mixed review from me, the food was tasty but the "big plates" are not big portions, I had crispy belly pork and I left hungry, also the giros wasn't really a giro, it was chicken on a flatbread with chips separate, absolutely no way that could be wrapped up and eaten as they should be. What really ruined it for me was going to the bathroom, it was a state and absolutely stank! If they'll leave the toilets in such a state it makes me worried about the state of the kitchen. I won't be going back

**Avoid at all costs.** Stopped here for breakfast, the food is absolutely disgusting. Honestly I wouldn’t be picky but please avoid this place at all costs. I would say it’s more pub than food establishment. I had to complain as some of the breakfast wasn’t even cooked. Manager gave 4 pound off for serving an uncooked breakfast. Place was filthy, the table we were sat next too had chewing gum stuck to the menu. One of the most disgusting places ever visited for food. I would say some people try this place because The Koffee pot is full (which is a what happened to us. Do not eat here.

Peor servicio he tenido en mucho tiempo. Benedicto XVI con salmón llegó sin salmón (no hay información sobre por qué) y después de todas las demás comidas en grupo cuando el personal dijo oh ¿usted pidió algo también! Ermmmm. Obviamente 🙄 Tuve que perseguir una bebida caliente para que me dijeran “solo una persona haciendo bebidas para todos los clientes” “debido a que soy el único cliente sin una bebida durante más de 10 minutos” Mientras hacía el pedido de comida a uno en la fiesta le dijeron que el artículo no estaba disponible, así que hice una segunda opción rápida. Antes de que el pedido llegara a la cocina solicitó cambiarlo, lo que acordaron hacer. ¡Pero entonces el primer y segundo ítem llegaron a la mesa! Al pedir la factura, los 3 miembros del personal estaban más preocupados por charlar entre ellos que por los clientes que esperaban. Finalmente el casco era completamente incorrecto, avisado de corrección para seguir recibiendo y factura incorrecta Seguro decir que no volverá, muy decepcionado

10% service charge for absolutely dreadful service!!!!! We had breakfast there. Hot drinks took forever to come. When they did, coffee was burnt and tasted sour. The people on the next table received their food prior to their warm drinks and when asking a waiter if their drinks were on their way the response was “we only have one guy doing coffees for everybody here so it will be a wait”. Unprofessional response & considering the coffee machine was visible to customers it didn’t seem to be in very much use so not sure where this “one guy” was most of the time? Staff standing behind the bar chatting and neglecting tables, avoiding taking orders, turning people away instead of just turning tables and working quickly. Staff team all poorly presented, moving so slowly and unproductively it almost looked like they were still going from being out drinking the night before. It felt like staff didn’t feel breakfast service was necessary for money making and that the bar makes the most income of a night time, so therefore breakfast service was half-hearted. If staff feel this way then it may be wise to make a decision about the necessity of trying to accommodate breakfast in a pub environment. When visiting the bathroom facilities it seemed obvious that the venue is mostly established for raves and messy nights which felt confusing. Maybe a need to focus on a specific business model or perhaps some more attention on the breakfast/daytime element of the business. Food was okay but nothing amazing. All “toast” hadn’t been toasted so was just bread underneath the rubbery eggs & lukewarm baked beans. All in all the food wasn’t nearly enough to compensate for the awful service. Asked for the bill… took 20 minutes to receive it and once paid there was no “Thank you for coming guys, have a great day! See you next time”, the waitress simply just walked away with the card machine like she couldn’t care less now because they got the money. Will not be back during the day or night!

The food was good when it eventually arrived. Service was pretty poor. The prices on the menu didn't match the more expensive ones on the till and the staff attitude was "do you want it or not?" The food took forever due to a new menu the day we visited. It had 3 options. Haha. The furnishings were looking shabby. I'm sure if you visited in dark hours, with more clientele and just went for drinks, it would be a decent bar.

What an experience! This was the place to be after six (6) hours following the missus about, in and out and up and down of the Arndale and other various shops. Straight in and bang, served without a moments notice. Two pints of Stella Artois to wet thy whistle; an investment for my tastebuds. Admittedly, we’d originally booked elsewhere but Wilson’s now-inferior competitor decided to ignore our request to alter our arrival time by thirty (30) minutes. We agreed to settle here and make use of the sustenance on offer. Firstly, we are grateful for the warning to avoid the Mezze sharer by a member of staff due to its enormous stature and girth - it’s true, we wouldn’t have handled it. Nachos for a kick-off and they were good. Fresh and light, plenty to go around and plenty left over too, although we were wasteful, I would recommend this for a party of 3 or more. Mains - a couple of burgers for us de led. Altered halloumi for my lady friend (kudos to chef for removing absolutely everything BUT the halloumi, I know…) and for me, the buffalo chicken burger; it was four times lush, and I mean lush! Quality and where it’s concerned; turning attention to variety and options, varied but not extensive, I’m a fan of that. Had zero issues with the meals and both were thoroughly enjoyed. Comments on price; competitive for town on both food and drinks - the quality doesn’t differ from a more premium location/ environment but the atmosphere wouldn’t be there - thrilled to have heard some classic numbers by Leo Sayer, overhead. Staff were excellent and supported us throughout our journey at Wilson’s. We will be coming back. Special mention to the great secluded and surprisingly brutalist smoking courtyard too, linking the adjoining hotel. Buffalo Buffalo all the way!

Pretty shocking venue, suspect it's playing on the tourist trade and a few die hard regulars. As with many of the reviews I have to agree the service is atrocious. The dude with long hair and wearing a cross with a tattoo on his arm, saw I arrived and stood at the bar, no acknowledgement, I get you're making a single Margherita slowly but there's no reason to not say "hello be with you in a minute" or anything similar, guess it's easier to ignore people. The guy wearing the NY Giants top, he was super friendly and attentive. If I was the owner I'd be looking at why your staff aren't all acting in a similar manner, sure maybe the first dude has had a bad day but to ignore customers (I saw others with the same treatment when they arrived) is just going to drive away business. There is also certainly a slight 'pong' from the toilets coming up to the bar area, maybe needs looking into. Came to find food as a solo person, had a beer and left, I'm not going to risk food based on the quality of the customer service.

Terrible, terrible service. We went there on Saturday night and it was quite busy. We ordered drinks at the bar, but since all tables were taken, we sat at the bar. Five minutes later a bar staff told us that we can't sit here. We asked where should we sit since all tables were taken. She pointed at some dirty filthy table full of someone's food leftovers and spilled drinks. We said it's dirty and if someone can clean it for us. But she kept saying like a robot that we can't sit at the bar. We left the venue for a more welcoming place around the corner. That bar staff should be ashamed of herself.

Please don’t waste your time or money! Firstly, they will not take cash payment. No signs up anywhere to let you know of their card only policy, you only discover this after placing your order. 3 of us, 1 meal arrived and we waited 50 mins for the other 2 meals to arrive. The burgers themselves were not too bad. The staff were not very helpful and one of them was particularly dirty looking with filthy shoes on. We were given a free round of drinks as compensation, but we won’t be going back, many other places to eat in Manchester.

The only thing this place has going for it is the food. Everything else is unfortunately awful. Turning up we weren't greeted for ages, and when they eventually came to speak to us the lady said they didn't have any tables but we could see a table leaving and had to point it out to her. Once seated it took ages for someone to come and take our order. One of our group ordered the vegan breakfast, which comes with Halloumi?? 😂 That is not vegan, so that's weird. When our drinks arrived they missed off two drinks from the order for a party of 4. When we eventually ordered our food we sat and watched the staff. One refilled the coffee machine and placed the coffee lid directly on the floor. The men's toilets were completely out of order, urinals, cubicles AND taps. The person who took our order was completely disinterested and rolled his eyes when I asked for drinks after he thought we were finished ordering. It took forever to get the bill and we had to ask two separate people. They weren't short staffed, we could see loads of team members but none of them seemed to care. The food was really nice, highly recommended the banana bread if you can get a table and find a waiter.

The location is spacious, providing lots of seating compared to many crowded places in the Northern Quarter. The drink options are diverse but somewhat pricey, I spent over £6 on a spiced rum and coke, served in a very small glass. The food was decent, although the Korean-style chicken burger mentioned on the menu turned out to be more of a classic pub-style chicken burger (with a lot of lettuce).

Why do they pretend to do food? Ordered the curry which was tiny and bland but also got the beef noodles for my son which came with not a single piece of beef. Honestly there was not one piece of beef in the entire dish. It was like a 25p pack of ramen for the most expensive dish on the menu. I took it back and the staff found it funny and said it had been ordered without meat by mistake . A second dish came out with 3 pieces of beef and my son ate it because he was hungry but this was a disaster. Staff laughing and atrocious food. Quickly learned why this place was empty. Give it 9months and it will be closed down.

The food could and should be fine but it’s left on the side with hot drinks for long times ? Both arrive late not hot. We had to get our oven condiments and cutlery despite asking. Other diners like us continuously asking where food was etc. others had food arrive totally different times. Also it’s so uncomfortable sitting near the door when people are stood waiting with the door wide open. The place needs things tweaking and it would could be much better but until then we all said we would just go somewhere else in future.

I don’t think I have ever been to a place with such bad service - not only in Manchester but anywhere!

Service was literally non-existent - we had to ask for everything, cutlery arrived some minutes after the food, condiments after we had finished the meal. The worst thing was the staff really did not seem to care one jot. Don’t know who owns this place but they would make a lot more money with vaguely competent staff. Food was average.

Sadly not a great experience, food was good once it arrived after over 1 hour wait. The service is shocking. The staff are clearly not trained to deliver any level of great customer experience. Was told that the staff are all new and the longest standing staff member is the only one that has been there over 2 weeks. I saw numerous customers complaining and even walking out after long wait for their order. The supervisor decided to go on his break in the middle of busy service and unhappy customers, this clearly shows me the commitment the management have, if the staff don’t want to deliver hospitality worth being proud of give up and stay at home. Won’t be visiting again and sadly would not recommend

Have to agree with the other reviews and not one has been acknowledged by the management. Should have done my homework before stepping into this place. Staff took an age to acknowledge us waiting to be seated and they were talking to each other or their friends. Tea came with a tiny cup and tea pot. The falafel could not have been 'home cooked' and the bowl was missing the sauce. The flat bread came later and burnt, sent it back to receive another that went cold and hard within minutes. Seating and floor needed a good clean. Only asked about if everything was ok on payment. On letting the waitress know that items were missing from the meal, she already knew what was missing and said that if i has said something we could have got a free drink - didn't offer any money off and i did not have the energy to ask for the manager. Would not ever go back again.

Decent new menu with a Middle Eastern twist. Everything well presented. Respect that they’re trying something different to your average late bar in the NQ.

Location and setting is lovely however the service is utterly shocking. Ran out of coffee on a Sunday morning everything was extremely slow. Zero gluten free options for one member of our party and another meal was completely forgotten about! Such a shame!!

We visited on a Sunday morning, food was nice enough but service was terrible. Waited 30mins for coffee which were delivered to the wrong table then brought to us a few minutes later, had to go up and get our own cutlery once food came; and still got a service charge put on our bill

Was cautious due to reviews being quite low but found our experience was fine. The chicken schnitzel was great and food came promptly.

Place is really let down by the toilets. Filthy. The doors don't lock in the ladies There is toilet roll everywhere When you're paying for drinks, you sort of expect that decent toilets are included in these prices Really low standards!

Bizarre experience. Man in too small a beanie came to take our order at the bar. Said he usually worked next door and couldn't find the things we wanted on the menu. Which was odd. Then we placed the order for food, mine turned up about twenty minutes before my friend despite ordering together. Said homemade falalfel but was deffo frozen probably birds eye. Toilets stank too and also the coke was ninety percent ice.

Edit - since the shopping centre closed and the Nero opened over the road this place has improved so much. I always thought a lack of staff was behind the slow service and chaotic atmosphere, and now it's quieter and less rushed the café is so much nicer and service is so much better. It's clean, well stocked, the staff are lovely, the coffee is a great price compared to Nero, the food is better, and the atmosphere is calm and friendly. Lots of the customers and staff know each other, making it a friendly place to be. The floor to ceiling glass walls are lovely to sit at and take in the outside world.

Phoebe era maravillosa. Muy sonriente y amable y listo para un poco de conversación, sin duda volverá cada vez que coja el tren o se dirija al AO.

we absolutely loved it here! the atmosphere is like the pub in ‘the holiday’! when we fancied some food we were told there was an hour wait so held off for a bit, but when we came back up they rushed our food through and gave us a freebie, the best service and lovely staff, a truly lovely pub!

One of many Costa coffee branches now with dismissive attitudes towards custom. Either the staff Members themselves seem to lack it , or the management do little to instil a sense of friendly customer service. Sad.
