  “Ended up wandering in as it seemed rather quiet on a Saturday early afternoon back in December, we’ve been going back nearly every week ever since! The buffalo wings are amazing, I hate eating meat on the bone but I always make an exception for them. The bbq pulled pork fries are a must. We don’t tend to eat the same item when going out but we can’t help ourselves whenever we visit. Never had an issue with the food, atmosphere or staff.”

  “The pubs is lovely and clean with amazing service provided. They have a pool table and some wonderful beers. For me, the standout was the menu. The food was incredible. Didn't take long at all and when it came it blew me away.”

  “Went here for lunch on a Sunday and it was really lovely! I had the steak focaccia sandwich with chips and my partner had the fried chicken burger. The focaccia itself was just amazing - really beautifully seasoned with herbs and the perfect texture! Honestly I could have gone here for the bread alone. The chips were great as well - not too salty and a good crunch. Some of the seats are a bit worn out and could maybe do with a bit of love, but otherwise great food and great service. The prices are amazing too - I think the steak sandwich with chips was about £10? It was a big portion too.”

  “The Head of Steam, Didsbury ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dropped into The Head of Steam in Didsbury on a laid-back Saturday afternoon and found exactly what I didn’t know I needed — a cosy, ambient pocket of peace. The atmosphere? Effortlessly relaxed. No need to perform or posture. Just good vibes, warm smiles, and that delicious hum of friendly banter weaving through the background like a familiar tune. I wasn’t here for the pints or the pub grub (though they looked tempting). I simply had a proper cup of tea — no frills, just honest comfort in a tea pot and cup — and let the easy rhythm of indie tunes and lively chat wash over me. It felt like the kind of place where time slows down just enough for you to breathe. A solid go-to for solo unwinding or catching up with friends without the pressure of noise overload. Whether you're nursing a tea or a tipple, this place ticks the "refresh & rest"”

  “Came here on a Sunday to collect a mild magic sticker but ended up staying for more drinks and a Sunday roast !! The roast was delicious. I didn’t like the vegan wellington because of the cranberry sauce but that’s just a reflection of my palette rather than the food itself😂😂service absolutely wonderful- ended up buying 3 cans of gorgeous sours ! Selection is great in here. Genuinely my only fault is that the music could’ve been a bit louder as it feels quite quiet and echoey !! First time in didsbury- will absolutely be back”

  “Great pub in busy Didsbury. Camerons is a Hartlepool Brewery reinventing itself. On our latest visit with Martin in 2023 they had a mix of own beers and beers from Three Brothers, Thornbridge, Alphabet and Full Circle. Had a 4.6% Sticky Toffee Porter by Three Brothers, Stockton. For trendy hipsters there were several craft ales. Good selection of wine. Staff really friendly and well trained.”
