   Great surroundings,and good waiter service. However little concerned with the reaction from reception that because there was a possibility of being late I had rang a number of times and the phone was unanswered. The response was reservations closed at 1700. I pointed put the answerphone message was to re-direct me to the restaurant number which was unanswered. Given the notice when making the reservation about the 15 min grace period how else do you contact the restaurant to inform of unseen eventualities? I should add there was a 245 mile journey undertaken and this is a favourite venue for these trips. Perhaps the central reservations message needs updating and clarifying or the front desk staff need to be aware of issue and a direct number available which is manned. Incidentally as waiter staff pointed out this was a quiet period for the end of evening weekend. 2015 hrs 15 May. Otherwise the evening was uneventful.

    Arrived for our 11am Saturday reservation on the roof terrace. Only just opened so very quiet. Ordered the cheese soufflé and the eggs Benedict with chips. Perfect, only down side - no room for dessert. All done by 12.30 with restaurant filling up and getting busy. Exceptional staff, nothing too much trouble, lovely decor throughout, great service and delicious food. Highly recommend.

    3 Very Loud Rowdy Drunk Lads spoiled the Atmosphere, we had to move Table. Staff were not attentive, on an as and when Basis, had to constantly ask for Wine & Water. It was my 1st and Last Time at the Ivy Manchester. I have been to the Original Ivy in London, and there’s no Comparison

    It was a gift from our Daughter to go to the Ivy in Manchester, we have been to the Ivy in London and were expecting the same exclusive and different experience. We were both disappointed the food was good at best, but not special also the music was far to loud people were just talking louder to each other. It was not the special relaxing time we had been looking forward to.

    It’s a lovely place, the staff were friendly and efficient. The food was top class. We had fish and chips and shepherds pie, plain fair you might think, but served with all the embellishments and flair that you’d expect from a top restaurant. A little expensive, but you get what you pay for. A lovely experience, we will go again.

    Just the best place in Manchester to dine, celebrate and re-energize. Great service accompanied the great food. The staff made a special effort to provide my wife with an amazing birthday. The building in and out is fabulous. Growing through the bank of grey surrounding buildings, the Ivy takes you heart and senses to a happy green place. Thank you everyone.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Staff were very attentive and looked super. Only reservation would be the lack of space at table. It felt a little cramped and conversations around were easily overheard and a bit intrusive. Positive comment only. Thank you

    Absolutely stunning aesthetics, let down by excessively loud music. I love loud music but trying to eat and chat and even hear the waiting staff speak was so difficult. Also, the chair was constantly being knocked by everyone walking past. Kind of let itself down. There's so many nice places to eat in Manchester, I'm afraid I won't be returning. Such a shame.
