The best restaurants serving British food in North West

Went to the bar. Not overly busy. Barmaid acknowledged me but served at least four other people who came to the bar after myself. In the end had no option but to serve me as I was the only one waiting. Got the feeling regulars get priority. Her loss as I always tip having worked in hospitality but not on this occasion.

Avoids at all cost this hotel is not clean so the kitchen must be as bad , go elsewhere and have decent food .

Food was great in here year's ago. No it tastes like the food has been warmed up. Please put it back to the way it was

The champagne was disgusting and cheap. The waitress was weird and thought herself funny. Service was late and the worst I've ever had. Worst place ever. Never coming back!

The staff were excellent and extremely accommodating when we came to celebrate my Nannas 85th Birthday! They honestly couldn’t do enough! We will be back!

Gratis alcohol y comida gratis. Un ensayo del nuevo nombre que ha tomado este lugar. Cómo delicioso. Qué gran adición a la Printworks. Manchester realmente merece una corona de su propio. Excelente personal y servicio en general. El ambiente era un poco ruidoso, pero eso era de esperar.

We went to this restaurant last August for lunch and the food was amazing with hardly any waiting time. However, we decided to try for lunch again this weekend and the difference was upsetting. I stood in the queue behind five or six people and there was a chalkboard with "30 minutes wait for food" written on it. Okay so 30 mins, not too long to wait, but as I moved down the queue it got updated to 40 minutes then 60 minutes. No way is it acceptable to wait 60 minutes for food! The tea would have been cold after 15 minutes. Would they have replaced with a fresh pot. I don't think so. This is such a joke to expect people to wait for an hour for a meal. Come on STRIKES. Get more staff, you must be able to afford it. Shall not be back until they improve the waiting times.

We booked for my birthday and thought we would have a nice tea and it was truly awful! Weak and cheap coffee, dry cakes and small sandwiches!!! So awful 😞 the bar manager was lovely and gave us a 100% discount… will not return 🤮🤢

Awful.. went for lunch with a client who I support and we sat upstairs and all we could hear is the kitchen staff swearing and shouting and using horrible language, and due to the echo in the upper floor this was throughout the restaurant so I’m unsure why management did not pull them up on this, was awful. Came for a relaxing lunch and got this.. Not to mention the state of the food, plastic; tasteless and disgusting.

Delicious lasagne, wonderful carvery and excellent service from Laura! Very happy squad right here, saved us from no carvery after Coppice Wood had a barmy

Had to write a second review. This cafe seriously needs to be looked at by higher management. Went for breakfast with my son and ordered poached eggs on toast with beans. Waited over 25 minutes for food and when it arrived it was absolutely disgusting. Complained to the Manager who offered a refund. Went to get refund and supposedly the chef (use that term very losely) just shook her head and walked off. Did not care or even apologise. This place has gone down hill badly and will never eat at this awful place again.

Not enough staff. No cups, teaspoons. Serviettes were a roll of blue kitchen roll. Staff do their best. Generally you have a lot of things empty or not working. I don't blame the staff. You can only do so much. Morrisons cut back staff and expect the same service.

Had sweet and sour chicken Cantonese style, it was soggy (usually crispy), no veg just onions, chicken was tough and the sauce flavourless and the fried rice was stuck together. We will not be back

Been visiting jodrell on and off as a cyclist for the last 5/6 years, from when the modern caterer was responsible for the cafe, sadly that came to and end a while ago and the university took back charge. The food seems to have been going downhill ever since. Todays (Sunday) breakfast offering consisted of sausage or bacon barms. Precooked and left to slowly cool in a pot, not kept warm or reheated, served on an unbuttered barmcake that was left to dry out in a paper bag. The whole thing soon disintegrated because it was dryer than Gandhi’s flip flop. And they have the cheek to charge £5 for it. On the (only) plus side the coffee is still decent. May be better in the week but today was embarrassing compared to how good it used to be.

Ordered the fish and chips at £17:50 I will let the picture tell the story it was honestly smaller than a kids meal and zero effort put into making it
