  “Okay. This is one place that is definitely worth the hype. And it has gained a lot of popularity on social media and stuff, so it gets quite crowded, but still you get your food super fast. And it’s sooooo delicious, really, really affordable for the quality and amount of food. I had the rice with the popcorn chicken and the crispy spicy beef, and it was totally worth it. It’s a nice set-up inside, creative, if you want to dine in, but most people take it to go, makes sense. The service was so nice too. I believe it was Seth working the registry, and he was such a cool (and cute), kind guy! Will definitely be coming back here!”

  “Had the best time at Meridian! The service from start to finish was absolutely amazing. A special thank you to Susie, who made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. She introduced us to the Build Your Lunch Box deal and explained everything perfectly, making the whole experience so easy and enjoyable. The food prepared by Chef Joe was absolutely delicious, and Daniel was so hospitable, regularly checking in to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. A huge thank you to Adheem too for the fantastic service! Every member of the team was so lovely, friendly and accommodating, and they really made our experience special!!! I’m not from Manchester, but I can honestly say I’ll definitely be making the trip back to Meridian for this again! Thank you so much to the whole team for making our visit such a wonderful experience. We’ll definitely be back!”

  “I got a box for lunch. I had popcorn chicken, crispy beef and tofu with Malaysian curry and noodles. I guess I'm not crazy about crispy beef in general, too much crisps and not enough beef. But the popcorn chicken was great and the tofu was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, it absorbed the Malaysian curry well, which was pretty tasty. Great food for a great price, seemed very popular among locals.”

  “Best place in Central Manchester to go during lunch break. A range of Asian cuisine to choose from. Crispy beef, Malaysian curry, popcorn chicken, spring rolls and much more! You get a decent amount too (even with the small option), all for low cost, it's an absolute bargain in my opinion. Also a shout out to the manager, who is one of the most welcoming and friendly guys in Manchester. Love this place, you have to go!”

  “lunch deal is very good value (i got small + 2 extra toppings @ 6.80) you get so much high quality food, the box is practically overflowing. their tofu is possibly the best i’ve ever had it was so light and the crispy beef is incredible. the gyozas and spring rolls are coated in salt and pepper seasoning which is so good. the staff are lovely and service was amazing!!”

  “Had a great experience here. The staff were incredibly friendly and took the time to explain how to order, which made me feel very welcome. There was no pressure or rush, I was able to relax and enjoy my visit. The food was excellent, with generous portion sizes and very reasonable prices which is hard to find elsewhere in central Manchester. The venue itself is fantastic too, with plenty of space for socialising including board games and a pool table that make it a fun place to spend time with friends. I’ll definitely be back with friends and family!”

  “Meridian is located just off the main shopping street and is well worth a trip. It’s a real gem of a place that offers really tasty food at a good price. I had the small lunch bowl with two extra toppings and honestly it filled me up. Special shout out to Daniel who was really helpful and a thoroughly pleasant chap. A definite recommend.”

  “It’s a 10⭐️ experience. Great food, wonderful and friendly staff who were so warm and friendly made us feel really welcome and comfortable💕 We heard about this place through TikTok so came in from the rain and the girl who took our order was instantly so friendly and then the gentleman who gave us our food was also so lovely and nice to us! Food was banging. Best shredded beef I’ve had and thank god I got a small appetite because I’m taking the rest back to devour at home! Best value for money, affordable prices and a large portion size. Thanks, Meridian!”
