Quick info
About Slug & Lettuce - Didsbury
Slug & Lettuce - Didsbury is a cocktail bar at 651 Wilmslow Rd in Manchester, where guests can join a hands-on cocktail making class and learn to mix their own drinks. Bottomless brunch runs in set time slots, with each booking finishing at a fixed end time. Cocktails are part of the brunch, and an upgrade gives a wider choice. Afternoon tea is on the menu for guests who want something different. Staff provide table service, checking on drinks and suggesting cocktails. The large space includes a big dining area, which suits group birthday bookings. Tables can be booked online, and any remaining balance is paid after booking.

Customer Review Summary
Bottomless brunch is what most reviewers come for, and they repeatedly praise the staff keeping drinks topped up, with one noting a final round was brought over even with minutes left on the booking. Cocktails get a good word, including one reviewer who liked the recommendations, and a cocktail making class is described as excellent, with guests learning to mix their own. Afternoon tea and a Mother's Day visit also earn praise, with the waitress described as on top of everything needed. Several call the place clean, beautiful inside and great for a friend's birthday. The main criticisms concern food and condition. One reviewer finds the food choice not great and calls paying extra to upgrade the cocktail selection a bit cheeky, while another rates the venue a poor show, describing a huge space that looks ill-kept, out-of-order bathrooms, average food and staff running around. One diner warns that an online booking left a balance to pay and nearly left without settling it.

“We had a great time on Saturday. We did the bottomless brunch. Got to be honest, the food choice isn’t great but I suppose you don’t go for the food. The cocktails were great although having to pay extra to upgrade to get a better choice is a bit cheeky. The service was great 5 stars for Brenna. She kept checking on us to make sure we all had drinks and was lovely and friendly.”

“I’ve been to quite a few Wetherspoons for bottomless brunch, and this one is by far one of the best. It feels cleaner, more welcoming, and just has a more premium atmosphere than many others I’ve visited. A huge shout-out to Connor, who looked after us. This is actually the second time he’s served me, and he is absolutely fantastic. Friendly, attentive, professional and genuinely lovely. He never let our drinks run empty, and even with just a couple of minutes left on our booking, he still came over to make sure we got one last round. That’s the kind of service that really stands out. Connor is a real credit to the team, and because of service like his, I’ll happily keep coming back. Highly recommend this Wetherspoons for a bottomless brunch – brilliant value, great atmosphere and exceptional service.”
