   Table service was great and server was friendly. Food was ok. We had cauliflower bits. Chicken wings. Cheeseburger. Taco Salad with Shrimp … this was ok but really lettuce with feta a few shrimp in a taco bowl. Tasty but not filling. Upon entry, staff were not welcoming. And lots of staff gathered social-chatting at a computer near our table.

   First time eating here & really enjoyed it. The staff are very attentive, food was lovely. It was my birthday so got a free dessert for the table. Loved the decor, we had the booth facing the door so enjoyed watching the goings on. Overall great experience & will definitely come back. Went upstairs after the meal & found they didn’t do cocktails you had to go to the bar downstairs but that wasn’t a big issue. All the staff are friendly & helpful.

    The staff were very friendly but the food was ok the sauces for the wings were really vinegary and they took around 20 mins to come which is really long to say it’s only 90 mins for the bottomless wings

    Really enjoyed the experience. The sauces that came with our food were delish 😋. The ambience was lovely as they cater for families with children. The music was soothing not too loud that you can have a conversation. Will definitely visit again xx

    The drinks were not as good as they were made out to be! The mains were bad as it was not cooked properly so we had to waste it! And the service was poor. We were given a table right in the corner near the fire exit despite booking before hand.

    No salmon, no orange wine. Ordered salad- was uninspiring & basic for the price. Taco didn’t mention the garlic on the prawns- which wasn’t mentioned on the menu- obviously contaminated all the plate with garlic.my friend can’t stand the smell of garlic, let alone it all over the plate. prosecco over priced as are most of other bottles. First bottle of prosecco came warm. Staff did change it but next bottle not very cool. Also on the bill we were charged for the band before 9 & the band was hardly on. Staff really friendly. & helpful Overall Really disappointing.

    Booked this for my birthday, got a great table for listening to the live band on a Wednesday night! Staff fantastic, normal wait for food as you would expect in any busy bar/ restaurant. Drinks service was excellent and the choice was great from beers to cocktails to bourbons! Will definitely be going back!

    Was pleasantly surprised with this place… was in from the states…disappointed with all our meals in Manchester..was looking for some food late night and stumbled upon this place on open table. We decided to give it a shot since the reviews were good and wow it was amazing. The atmosphere, the food, the service. I loved the live music. The strawberry basil bramble was great. I wish I got the hostess name who took care of us. The place was packed, we had a reservation but people were just getting up…the kitchen was closing soon and she knew we wanted to eat..she found us room ASAP. Whoever was working March 11, 2023 at 10:45pm at the hostess stand. You are amazing.

    Really nice night. Live music, so not the kind of place to go for a quiet night, we were seated around the corner so it was just loud enough to still be able to chat. The drinks were really nicely done, and the food was lovely. It all came to our table quickly. We enjoyed ourselves and will be back in the future. Of course, very popular so very busy, which meant we were waiting at the bar for 10 or so minutes after our booking time before our table was ready, but we didn't mind. The staff were kind and attentive. The food and drinks are priced about what you'd expect for Manchester, about a tenner for a cocktail, and 13 or so pounds for most of the plates of food.

    Visited with my daughter we arrived early as our shopping trip was cut short with snow. The staff were very helpful and welcoming and we were seated Lunch menu great value we had a main each and drink each cider and gin and tonic and it work out £12 per head I can't praise the staff enough customer service amazing and couldn't do enough Only small criticism was it was a little cold and I needed to keep my coat on but I didn't mention this and I know the staff would of dealt with this accordingly I live in Preston I think its well worth a train fare to visit . My husband is recovering fro. A major problem and once recovered this is our first outing I can't wait to introduce him to th Vlues Kitchen. If you are in the Area you must pop in

    Service: couldn’t be improved. Everybody super nice and helpful. Give them a raise. Food: burgers and fries super tasty. Sauces were good but skimpy in terms of amount given. The ribs were the only negative about the entire meal. They were pretty much vegan ribs. Had they already been eaten by someone? Sauce however, was banging.

    First time here, was for my birthday, birthday was not acknowledged in anyway at all even though I had mentioned this when bolling reservation. The table did not have a lot of space for the group of 6, we sat elbow to elbow in a booth and it was very noisy due to other guests screaming very loudly nearby. However The food was great , and served quick & enjoyed the live music even though we couldn't see the performer but was disappointed with the visit overall due to the lack of catering to our party/ acknowledging the birthday. I would visit again but not for a birthday.
