Yard & Coop in Manchester

I really enjoyed the food there is an overpowering taste and excessive sauce use on the chicken which if toned down would make the food amazing. Service was excellent and the waiters and waitresses were brilliant. I also had a milkshake to go which was watery and I wouldn’t have another.

Great food and a top happy hour deal. Buffalo chicken wings were great.

The food was excellent as always and J’s service was excellent. Super friendly and quick with every request we had!

Fantastic place love the dirty bird, thanks Marina

Lack luster food served by slow staff. The £8 lunch menu was advertised outside on a big board to entice you in but once inside the only menu on the table was the full A la Carte menu. After scanning the QR code on the table underneath said menu and scrolling to near bottom we were greeted by the lunch menu. Both sandwiches we ordered, one with curry sauce and one with gravy were unremarkable. The chicken was unseasoned and lacked flavour. The food was supposed to arrive with "Salt and Vinegar" but it didn't. We were left rather underwhelmed. I've have been wanting to try this spot for a while, appearing to be unique and exciting. I'd like to come back and have another shot but I'm certainly wary.

Food wasn’t abit of me but great service.

Best experience i’ve had, made us feel so welcome! free to talk about the menu with any questions given! Jay is your man at the place!

Had a great time here! I went with my brother, we couldn't decide where to go and this place stood out with its huge cock at the door! 😅 Great atmosphere, great service, and a great selection on the menu to choose from! Highly recommend if you're looking for a place that's casual, chicken, and done in style!

Food was fab, waiters were great and overall a good place to eat.

Great at the christmas markets, love the salt and pepper chicken and chips, just wish the portion was a little better

Great service and great food. Food is always spot on but today was served by Lean. She was superb and made the lunch every bit nicer. Superb

I had a Burger and the bbq Chicken Wings. Both have been amazing!

Great spot for a dinner or lunch. Priced fairly and the service was pleasant. Jae looked after us really well. The dirty fries are really good.

Excellent service provided by J - lovely food. Really tasty and fresh and nice rester aunt. Impeccable mini egg digestive at the end.

Amazing food, great prices. Our waiter J gave amazing service! Would highly recommend if you love fried chicken......

Food was excellent as usual - no better place to get fried chicken. J was our server and he was great, very friendly and chatty.

Food was great, well priced also and the atmosphere was super welcoming! J was our server this evening and he was so friendly and helpful - thank you!

J was fantastic, enthusiastic very patient, knowledgeable and helpful with the recommendations he should definitely get a pay rise made me and partner comfortable

Was great as always, Jay was a fantastic waiter, really helpful.

Overall: Quite Mid. Lovely staff and great decor and atmosphere but the food is nothing special and isn't cheap. We both ordered the 'big plates' which are big but not much variety really. Stacked with chips that were seasoned with a whisper of salt. Soggy fried chicken with what seamed like reheated macaroni cheese as it was clumpy as if it were microwaved.

Thoroughly enjoyed our night at yard & coop. The food was great, the music was on point and Jae made sure the vibes were high all night. Highly recommend!

I went yesterday for my son’s birthday, what a great atmosphere. The food was excellent and so was the service, the staff all deserve a raise. They were the friendliest staff I have seen in a long time . I would highly recommend A*****************************

I took my friend out for her birthday- all chicken is halal and the staff actively offer the certificate just to prove it which is fantastic! The food was gorgeous and we were definitely spoilt for choice. The ranch is leagues above the wing stop ranch, as is the menu as a whole. Our server Jay was lovely and we can’t wait to do back. Make sure to book in advance because it gets busy !

Good food. Pleasant staff. Convenient location.

My mate and I had burgers and loaded fries. Food was good and the service was excellent. Will be back to try the rest of the menu!

Great place for all family. Catered well for dietary intolerances. Kids kept entertained by the provision of Lego box and colouring stuff. Only criticism would be that we needed some wheels in the lego box :)!

The food was absolutely unbelievable really enjoyed it, service was spot on. The spicy option was soooo good but very very hot so don't try if your not a fan. The mac and cheese was fantastic. Will definitely be back

Lovely dinner with my 5yr old and husband, Leah couldn’t have been more obliging..Lego for my son, lovely table. First time in Manchester and made to feel like royalty, thanks for a great tea xx

If I could give 10+ stars on here I absolutely would me and my brothers came to Yard and Coop for some food and ohhhhh woooooow I'm definitely coming back the food was absolutely phenomenal the service was phenomenal and so was the atmosphere the staff were so kind and helpful and welcoming so so nice didn't bother you constantly like most restaurants do the came over a few times when we asked for them but I must so thank you to all the staff and absolutely compliments to the chef on the phenomenal food you've made future customers of me and my brothers thank you very much 😁👍

Brilliant food and our server Jay was really attentive.

Fab food and great service from Jay!!

Food was amazing, atmosphere was great and Micheal was on the mark all night! Will definitely be back!

Great food as always and our server Steph was lovely

We had waiter Jay and he was lovely. Really recommend this place.

Jay was super lovely and friendly at yard and coop today, glad to have had him as our server today:)

Micky was lovely and provided great service

Great atmosphere and amazing food and drink reasonably priced. Marina was our waitress and she was extremely attentive and friendly. Will definitely be returning :)

Amazing waitress, Marina, really looked after us tonight. Great food and atmosphere!

Great food, great service. Marina was bloody fantastic.

New Manager Johnny was a star. First visit to Yard and coop, welcome was warm and food was great.

Jay is awesome. Food is good, fun lively atmosphere. Vanilla ice cream chicken burger is definitely ‘interesting’! 😂

Lovely food and fab service from Jay x

Food is amazing, drinks were amazing and Jay our waiter was so kind and helpful! Would definitely come back

Tasty tasty Chicken - vegan friends kept very happy too ! Food is really food quality and feels like a treat. Good size portions too !

Dined for my birthday last week. Food incredible as always but Leah really made our visit. We loved her! What a credit to your company.

Sign up to the news letter at yard and coop and they'll give you a free meal for your birthday!! You can have anything on the menu apart from the massive cock!! Today,I had the Ruben burger with an iron bru!! I loved it and the staff are very friendly with great service as well!! Amazing job and amazing food!! Free as well!!! They send you a voucher whenever your birthday is around the corner!! Thanks so much!! You've made my day!!

Shout out Jay - the energy is unmatched

Absolutely lovely service from Jay especially with amazing food and music selection. The atmosphere and decor was fantastic and I am absolutely coming back to try more of their delicious chicken dishes

Amazing chicken feast! Yard & Coop is impossible to top for delicious chicken in so many different variations. A burger is always my choice though! I had one of the specials for the 'Battle of the Bloggers' which was Ronnie's Reviews 'Carolina BBQ Burger'. It was superb. Fantastic flavours from the marinade and the succulent pulled beef. Nice crunch from the chicken coating and the slaw. However, it was the Pulled Chicken BBQ Fries that stole the show. A massive portion of fresh fries plastered in ranch and pulled chicken. I loved every mouthful. As always the service was spot on and the atmosphere is great for dining. Previous visit: Just an incredibly dank tray of food! Every mouthful was amazing. The Messi Burger had fantastic flavours from the sauces but the chicken was coated with something special! It was so crispy too and plenty of it. I did have to send it back for the pulled beef to be added and I'm glad I didn't miss out because that was really tasty too. The BBQ Pulled Chicken loaded fries were almost as enjoyable as the burger. Again delicious sauces and plenty of meat. Some was a tad chewy but I suppose it just made the taste last longer! The place is cool and the staff are a delight. Couldn't recommend it enough and I'll certainly be back. I feel bad that I've never been before now! Previous visit: Another great burger! Having had the best chicken burger of my life on my previous visit it was needless to say I was excited to get another fix. I ordered a 'Karen' burger with an extra thigh. It didn't match the lofty high standard set but it was still a damn enjoyable burger! Their chicken is perfectly crisp and juicy. I also had tots which are always a winner over regular fries. Sadly you can't swap them with your meal so I had to have side salad and pay separately for the tots. Fortunately I had a free side voucher to use though! The place itself is always popular and the staff are great. Quite pricey but you'll struggle for a better chicken place in Manchester.

The service of this place was amazing they made me feel so comfortable, you don’t have to think to accept include the tips

Came here for my 21st and it was unreal

Incredible. Shots wete tasty i cannot lie. Service was beautiful. Wow would come back

The acustic could be etter, but the food was good value for the money.

Had a family get together last night, we decided to go to yard and coop and it did not disappoint at all. Excellent service, delicious food and really first class staff. I could have spent all night drinking melon mai tais.. great compliment to delicious fried chicken. I hope you come and open a branch in Wales one day, I'll be your first customer 👍 thankyou for a great night

The food is decently portioned and tasty... just wish my chicken was warm and more fresh. The sauces were nice, especially the ranch and blue cheese. The peach ice tea was refreshing. Tables way too close together...annoying...also the furniture is rather mixed, reminds me of school hall(and not in a good way).

Was quiet when we went but have great wings, would recommend.

It's ok. Just ok. It used to be so much better but I guess the cost of living has affected what they can provide for the price point. My advice.....eat in places local to you that appreciate the trade and come into town to drink. Nothing wrong with this place but nothing to recommend either To be honest, 40 quid for chicken tenders and chips plus a portion of spicy chicken nuggets and a salad which was basically half a lettuce is a bit of a joke. It's a real shame but it used to be so much better here. Another place that's ready to shut down me thinks. Better food and better value in the locality. I wouldn't bother coming again.

my go to lunch spot each time when visiting my friend in manchester; the food is absolute quality. there’s such huge range on the menu with an additional specials menu that they give you, so plenty of choice to choose from, as well they do an assortment of fizzy and still drinks. the staff are massively friendly and attentive with their service. the place itself is huge so there’s always guarantee of being able to get a table when walking in. lots of toilets which are always clean and stocked up. overall a fabulous place which should be on anyone’s radar when visiting or living here!

Leah was a fabulous server for us and very helpful all round!

Visited here with a bunch of friends mid August and found the atmosphere and vibe to be nice, although it felt a both rushed considering it was a quiet day. There are some really interesting food options as well as being able to create your own. Only thing is that it’s a bit above would I’d like to pay, but great tasting food nonetheless.

Great food, fantastic service! Just a shame it’s far away

Expensive for basic fried chicken fillet and chips.

My friends deaf and all the staff made an effort to communicate. Good team.

This is an amazing place to have a meal with family and friends.... Great service 👏

Order came messed up ,spilling sauce on floor,,,forgot onion rings,end of meal asked my son had he finished replying yes then took my plate!strange automospere were we felt not welcomed,but everyone else who clearly were from the 🏳️‍🌈 community were warmly welcomed and served ,,,,makes me wonder

Amazing amazing amazing. Make sure you visit this place if you are in Manchester with kids because you won't regret it. We were recommended this by family who live in the area and we were not disappointed! Food was tasty, slightly expensive but unique and gorgeous! I had the dirty bird, she had the special that was advertised and the kids had chicken nuggets! All fantastic food. Lively atmosphere but not too busy it was great. Decorations for fun too!!

Cannot recommend this place enough. Staff were amazing, so lovely and welcoming, and made us feel happy to be there. We were reassured of any allergy concerns and weren't made to feel like a bother. And even though there was a long wait for the food (on a Saturday night so to be expected) it was well worth it, absolutely fantastic.

I love this place. Such lovely staff and great food. Jae is back and the MOST wonderful human. If you want somewhere genuine, get along there.

Excellent - the food is fantastic - you can tell it’s all fresh, not batch fried & placed in a warmer for the next customer

Me and my friend went to Yard and Coop today in Manchester. The food was amazing and super affordable for the portion sizes and quality. My personal favourite was the salt and pepper wings. Want to give a huge shoutout to the staff especially Jay who was so so lovely to us and had an amazing energy. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely unreal never had chicken like this before if you like chicken you HAVE to visit so so good service was really good truly enjoyed everything about it great find.

Unbelievable chicken with a wide variety of options and lovely milkshakes and drinks. Staff are exceptional and a special mention to Jaelan who dealt with my nut allergy with extra care and precaution !! :)

We had such a great time here tonight. Our server was so friendly and upbeat and the service at all stages was super efficient. I had the buttermilk chicken breast and chips with sides of slaw and chicken gravy and wow - it was so amazing! My friends had the chicken Parma and they loved theirs too. Will definitely return with my kids soon to make the most of the kids eat free offer!

I absolutely love it here! I’ve been here a few times and went a couple of months ago. The food was fantastic, great portion sizes and the prices were reasonable. The day that we went they had free wings with each main - all was really tasty. You should definitely go while in Manchester

Such great food. Very impressed.

Never disapoints, has literally became 'our place' for me and my partner.

The servers were very helpful and nice they and the place looked amazing however when it came to the food I found it to be not warm and almost cold to my likely, the look off the food came off very unappetising and sloppy. The milk shake was good however but u feel like for the price they should have atleast but wipped cream on top.

Happy hour is 20:30 on a Saturday which helped with our costs. Had a 19:30 reservation was seated timely, wait staff attentive, food very good. A main and two beers was about £30 per person. 4 lads splitting a bill 4 ways.

First visit and will definitely be going again!

Wanted to try for ages had the waffle burger and cherry coke wings, was okay but nothing special. Little underwhelming

Came for lunch and drinks, it was lovely. Sat outside and the sun was shining. The server was nice and relaxed and the food was tasty and reasonably priced. My only small issue was we were asked to pay before we ate. She made it seem like company policy. So I agreed ( it also included a service charge ). I have no issue with a SC however to pay it before receiving any food and drinks seems a little presumptuous. Later other tables paid their bill after eating. I'll definitely be coming again though and both sever and food were great. Visited 18.7.24 Mark

Gorgeous food , I had Korean chicken burger and my daughter had waffles and chicken. Service a little slow but overall highly recommend

Fantastic salt and pepper chips. Loved the chicken. Super attentive service. Sat me at dinner time on a Saturday with no reservations, which was great!

Love this place. Best chicken in town! :)

Travelled from up north watched a few TikTok’s saying this place was delicious so thought we would give it a go, when it come out I was so shocked couldn’t wait to dig in few bites in I realised that it was so over rated and I had just wasted 30 on my meal (we was both hungover too so you can imagine the heartbreak) the chicken wings where more batter then chicken giving a sludgy wet batter kinda vibe and the batter had absolutely no taste what so ever I ate one and left the rest. If I had to offer any advice mix up the batter add some flavour it was just sickly and tasteless, salt and pepper chips where nice very sweet but I didn’t realise it had sweet soy sauce on, go to kfc people and don’t go when your rough. cheese dip was the nicest part

Great food the best cherryade ever good friendly service good atmosphere and fair prices

This was a busy Saturday Afternoon. Greeted and taken to a table. Greeted by Darby who was very knowledgeable regarding drinks. Ordered a Solero Colada cocktail, flip the bird pint and a Nutella milkshake. The cocktail was delicious! Darby helped us pick out some burgers and they did not disappoint. Really tasty and messy! We had a lovely afternoon in Yard and Coop but having Darby as our server made it all the better. Thank you

Chicken was good. Salt and pepper chicken is not the salt and pepper you think. They used soy sauce but I liked the taste. Their salt and pepper chicken reminded me soy sauced korean fried chicken. Mac and cheese was below average. But their main is chicken. So no complain. I would go again

The service and location are great, very nice staff who made us feel very welcome. The food was a little disappointing unfortunately, it was definitely fine but I expected a better coating/crunch on the chicken.

Lovely meal. Big plates of food. I had chicken thighs with chips and cherry cola bbq sauce and cherryade. Very tasty and filling.

The Place Is the best for fried chicken in town. Absolutely wort a visit. Shout out to Jay, who's been the best server ever. Great great service, awesome guy, delicious chicken

I've had good experiences here before but this was disappointing. The gentleman on the front desk was unnecessarily rude and unhelpful, but the other waiting staff were friendly. Ordered a gluten free chicken thigh meal which took 35 minutes and was massively under seasoned and overcooked. Hopefully this isn't the start of slipping standards.

Great place, make sure you book on a Saturday night. fantastic food. Recommend the specials. Had a Euro burger, very tasty and delicious

The worst place to get a quick bite. Waited for an hour and a half. The staff are incredibly rude.

Best food in NQ 🍗 Class atmosphere, great service, and very allergy friendly.

We went to celebrate a birthday and had an incredible time. The atmosphere and staff were incredibly lovely and attentive, and the food was just as amazing. Our front of house staff (Jaelan) was very patient and kind with us, and provided excellent service. Would definitely come again!

Me and my friend Layla went here for dinner, and let's just say we had an absolute blast. Layla was knackered, but you certainly woke her with your excellent service ! Top trumps!

We entered as a walk in and were advised that there was a 30 minute wait for a table but they were happy to accommodate us. We were advised to wait at the bar. We ordered drinks and were served by a lovely girl who was happy to help. Within 20 minutes we were seated at the table. The menu had a great selection. Within 5 minutes we were approached by the lovely waitress to take our order. There was a bit of a wait for our food but Paula, one of the team members noticed and quickly chased our food. Mikey came to apologise for the delay and offered us a free drink on the house, which was lovely of him. The food came and it did not disappoint! Very appealing to the eye and very tasty!! Honestly, this was our first visit and from when we were first greeted to the very end we were looked after and the team couldn’t do enough for us. We eat out a lot and never had staff so lovely and enthusiastic towards the customers. Well done, you should all be very proud of the way you deliver the service. We will definitely be returning very soon.

I never leave reviews but this was seriously disappointing. Came in and ordered with the QR code and took 35 minutes for 1 main dish, Mac & Cheese rolls and some mash. Mash didn’t come with Gravy even though on the app through the QR code it is called Mash & Gravy side. Had the parmo plate. A teaspoon of dry macaroni and a few kernels of sweetcorn with fries that clearly weren’t fresh fried. A total waste of £40, can easily get better in any generic chicken shop on the street for half the price. Can’t fault the staff we were seated quickly, table was clean but there isn’t really any service so not sure why service charge is included. Could see other customers looking around wondering where their food was. Could be a great concept if done well. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Great day ,, food and drink b4 going see Peter kay ...absolutely brilliant...staff very attentative ,,atmosphere fantastic....
