Had to send the scollops back twice as they arrived cold. The Malayan chicken sauce looked watered down. The starter and main I had lacked taste and flavour. The meatballs my friend had were hot and tasty. They automatically added 10% service charge to the bill and I had to argue with them to take it off. It is good they took the scollops off the final bill and the manager did deal with the issue. I gained the impression they thought they were being scammed when I just wanted a good meal for a birthday celebration. It’s not the first time as a Black woman I’ve had a poor quality meal from them. But my friends like the atmosphere and so do I. The decor is lovely and cocktails make you feel like a film star ⭐

I ordered the Hot honey chicken pizza( which I’ve had before and was delicious) on this occasion there was vey little chicken and the pizza was very dry.. My friend ordered Chicken Wellington.. at £21 I thought it looked a very small portion and veg looked over cooked . And no potatoes included at that price!!, A large glass of Rose Zinvandel was £10 .. very expensive ! The portions seem smaller and the wine more expensive. Very disappointing evening as I have always enjoyed Albert’s Didsbury and eaten there regularly for years. 2 favourites are no longer on the main menu .??? . Steak Fritzes and Fish @ Chips. Need to be added as I think the menu is very poor and has Earle changed over the years

One of the waitresses (the one that issued our bill - you can check the CCTV to identify when our table/bill was closed), has been passively aggressively rude. I asked to pay in cash to which she informed us the restaurant doesn't take cash, according to their rules. Fair enough, it's within the restaurant's right to chose the payment methods. Initially, I wanted to pay the service charge as well, in cash. But since the waitress, and the restaurant as a whole, did not put any effort in providing the extra cash service, I decided to remove the service charge if paying with the card. The moment the waitress heard I want to remove the service charge, she started to roll her eyes, make all sort of annoyed gestures, throw the new bill on the table, throw the card machine on the table with nor verbal communication, throw the receipt on the table with no communication again, started banging all our plates and turn ignorant to anything else besides the bare minimum for payment. We then left and thanked her, and she rolled her eyes again and didn't bother to reply. The only reason I'm bothering to levave a review is because I own several restaurant as well, and I know how such toxic employees can impact the culture of the restuarant and the team as a whole. The restaurant is doing a good job, in general, but such employees are losing the restaurant customers.

The evening was spoiled by a selfish couple 'VAPING' on the terrace. Each time the server came they stopped. Having their 'Vape' smells over our food spoiled the taste. Our server Connor was great. So attentive and caring. Definitely will not stop me eating here again.

Hi David, Thanks for leaving us your feedback, I can only apologised we missed the culprits, if you'd let one our team know we could've fixed this for you. I'm pleased it hasn't put you off returning and I'm sure Connor will be thrilled also. See you next time :)

Parking limited at busy times, stressful. It’s about time Albert’s changed their meat supplier!! Steak frites always tough, sinus throughout, rib eye steaks same issue. Even the fillet mignon was below standard! The menu is very limited. £35.20 for Cloud Factory Sauvignon blanc is tantamount to extortion when it retails for £10.85 and even less wholesale. And before some smart Alec responds that’s the wrong price- NO IT ISN’T not when you include the 10% service charge. If you order a large glass (250ml) then the price goes up to the equivalent of £39.60 a bottle!!! After several complaints about the temperature of the wine I have automatically ordered a pint of ice to cool the wine down to an acceptable temperature because I know it’s going to be too warm!!! Which is a cardinal sin in my view! Albert’s food standards are in inexorable and steadily decline as I have as experienced following recent visits! Albert’s have even succeeded in upsetting my grandchild by removing the chocolate brownies from the children’s sundae and the size is substantially smaller but the price had risen to 4.75 . Used to be £3.50. What cheap skates!! The manager and Lucy, the part owner of Albert’s need to visit Canteena in Sale to sample how good food should taste and take note of more realistic prices and not to take advantage of being located in a ‘posh’ location such as Didsbury. While we are on the subject of locations, I would like to inform you that “Albert’s Worsley” is located in Swinton which you must have thought that Albert’s cannot be associated with such a riff raff area. Shame on you!!! I bet the people of Swinton are not happy!! As you may have gathered I have had it with this chain of restaurants. It look awhile but I have finally taken to writing this negative review following many face to face complaints.
