About O’Neills Hungry Joe's

O'Neills Hungry Joe's is a cafe on Chapman St in Manchester, open daily for daytime service with no booking needed, just walk in and take a seat. The kitchen runs a full English breakfast alongside a "full monty" option, both served as they come, since the menu does not offer swaps or changes to breakfast items. On Sundays the cafe moves to a home cooked dinner menu, including a lamb dinner. Outdoor seating gives a spot for eating outside, and high chairs make the room workable for families with young children. Food is also available to take away for anyone eating off site. Portion sizes on items like the bacon sausage and egg sandwich can vary between visits.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often return to the full English breakfast, with a big breakfast, a bacon sausage and egg mega sandwich, and a lamb Sunday dinner also named. Praise centres on tasty food, nice portions, piping hot big cups of drinks, a clean room and friendly, quick proprietors, and one regular says they eat here twice a week. Traditional cafe is a phrase used more than once. Complaints carry real weight though. One reviewer says the sandwich contents vary from day to day, with two sausages and one egg one day and three sausages and two eggs the next. Another dislikes that swaps and changes are not allowed on the breakfast, and finds front of house staff moody. One diner reports being met coldly and ignored while served tea, and believes it was because of their skin colour. Another reviewer, who is blind, describes the food as basic and the coffee as instant, and reports that staff said it was irresponsible to leave him alone and that they were not insured to look after him. One regular also says the cafe needs a refresh.

    “Myself & my friend eat here twice a week, the food is very good. But the cafe is in need of a refresh.”

    “The disgusting attitude towards a disabled person and his partner is unacceptable and the pitiful reply as more to be desired. A family members experience from this establishment towards a disabled person: "I never write things like this. I’m incredibly lucky in that, I don’t come across this sort of behaviour very often in my life. When I do, it’s usually not worth writing about as many other blind people have written about it far more eloquently than I. However, I feel my experience today really does need to be shared and I would thank you for reading. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!! O’NEILLS HUNGRY JOE’S Came to Manchester for my girlfriend to attend a professional dance class from 9h30- 11h50. As a blind person I asked her to leave me in a nearby cafe so I might get on with some work while she was doing the class. The food was basic and the coffee was instant but the staff were appalling, although seeming polite at first. Upon my girlfriend's return to collect me after her class, as I had requested, the staff were abusive towards her and myself as they felt it was "irresponsible" of her to "leave him on his own as he might have fallen over or wet himself" and "they weren't insured" to "look after" me. I'm 24 years old, I have a degree, my own business, a car and a very happy, respectful relationship. The level of disrespect shown to myself as a disabled person and my girlfriend (not carer, as she was called by the staff) is unacceptable in any city of the UK in this century. We are disabled PEOPLE, not objects, not pets, not victims, not children and most of all not a nuisance to anyone. This place of business and most of all these uneducated people need to learn this, as they have lost any future custom from myself and everyone I know through their damaging attitudes and ignorant mindsets towards disabled people. An atrocious experience from start to finish! My hands are still shaking and I’m still shocked and enraged at this treatment. I feel patronised, humiliated and most of all incensed that my girlfriend (a truly wonderful, caring and compassionate individual who was only ever given me love, patience and kindness) was treated so poorly and worst of all judged by people who do not know her, me, us or indeed any disabled people apparently. I do not feel out of line for saying that Manchester should be ashamed of this establishment."”

    “Great place, nice portions for a reasonable price, busy but quiet, and the proprietors are quick to serve and friendly. Big cups for big drinks and everything is piping hot. They also do take away and home cooked Sunday dinner. Yummy. Also, takeaway available.”
