    Visited for 23rd dec evening meal as were residents .. very quiet so I presume skeleton staff .. ordered prawn pasta and garlic bread .. partner burger .. he enjoyed the burger .. the pasta was tasty but not luke warm .. garlic bread was 2 tiny pieces of French stick for 6 pounds and was cold .. only reason we didn’t complain was the lovely friendly red haired bar maid who made up for it .. wouldn’t eat again here by choice

    I went for pre show dinner and found it very convenient nearby the Lowry. There are roadworks just outside the hotel at present so it didn’t look great from the outside, but the interior is fresh and modern. Very comfortable dining and really lovely staff. The tapas was tasty and beautifully served. It made a nice change from the eateries close by to the theatre and was only a 12 minute walk along the canals- which was also very pleasant! I would go again.

    Nice food in a friendly setting. We had the tapas afternoon tea - I would have liked more main course items and less sweet. Our server was very friendly and helpful!

    We received a really warm and friendly welcome. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and tidy. The staff were all really friendly, super helpful and constantly smiling. The food was well presented and tasty. I couldn’t fault anything.

    Really nice time, used a Wowcher deal excellent value, ordered tapas aswell which was lovely service was excellent and a lovely friendly atmosphere. Only thing I would say is that should extend tapas menu for more choice and do meal deals like you used to do before covid . Will definitely be going again

    Booked a table on terrace for a relaxing afternoon drink and food. Service was none existent. Sat on terrace for 20+ minutes and no one even poked their head out the door to see if anyone needed serving. They had very few customers inside and only half full terrace and at least 4 staff stood around inside doing very little at all. Customers on near by tables advised us not to expect a drink or food anytime soon so we left without even being offered any service. Would have expected after waiting to reopen the whole team would be eager to please and see customers back. It seems not to be the case here. Waste of a trip. Won’t be back

    A Spanish afternoon tea is a great twist on an original idea. The food was excellent. The ambiance and service was great. The Churros were the best I have ever tasted (including those I've had in Spain!) Overall, a lovely treat.

    I had a Caesar salad and there was way too much sauce on it sadly this ruined the salad, especially the amount of cheese on top, the fish and chips meal my boyfriend found several bones however the starters were delightful, overall staff were very polite

    We were unsure how this outdoor booking on a Sunday would be but we were pleasantly surprised. We were warmly welcomed, taken to the outside seating area (which granted us next to the road) but we’re once sat down with the little perspex screen was fine, heaters ready to put on so all good. Absolutely great attentive service, beautifully cooked food. A little expensive for a lunch out but really enjoyed it. Would recommend

    Excellent service. Menu very limited and pricey, wouldn't say it was out of this world but good enough. If you go at lunch time be prepared for it to be cold, it's all in the ahade by 2pm or do the sun will come round and its much more pleasant

    Went along with a wowcher voucher that entitled you to a glass of wine and a main course (limited menu) and it was lovely. The waiter Shaun was very nice, pleasant and recommend a lovely cheese for the burger topping. Overall a great couple of hours out and would definitely go again
