Customer Review Summary
Bottomless brunch is the clear draw here, with reviewers repeatedly praising attentive servers who kept drinks and food coming over the two-hour sitting, including the big breakfast and small plates. Several single out one particular server by name for going the extra mile, though anonymity means the individual can't be credited here; more broadly, staff are described as friendly and accommodating, with one reviewer noting the team surprised a birthday guest with a headband. Beyond brunch, the 2-for-1 cocktails draw consistent praise, and the croquettes get a specific mention as a standout among the three small plates for £17. Ordering by app is noted as easy, though one reviewer mentions a voucher glitch that a bartender resolved helpfully. Diners describe the setting as clean and nicely decorated, with quiet spots to relax. Several reviewers recommend booking ahead for brunch or dining, and multiple say they've already rebooked, including for Christmas.

“We had the boozy brunch for my daughter's 18th. They couldn't do enough for us. The food and drinks where all of an excellent quality. The lady who serves us was lovely.”

“Had a bottomless brunch here yesterday. Our server, Blythe, was amazing. Really attentive and went the extra mile to ensure we were all happy. Other mentions to the other server (long coloured hair) and the general manager who were also great. We've booked in again for Christmas. Brilliant value.”
- Adam Broadhurst
“Maddie gave us one of the best customer service experiences we’ve had. She was friendly, attentive, and had such a positive attitude. Nothing was too much trouble. She made us feel looked after all evening. You can tell she genuinely cares about customers, and she’s a real credit to the team. Thanks again, Maddie, for making our visit so enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back.”
- Mikey J
“Food was really nice and the 3 small plates for £17 was good value. I thoroughly enjoyed the Croquettes. The place is very clean and decorated nicely.”

“Found in the heart of the city centre, a stones throw from the station, the Slug and Lettuce brings a layer of sophistication to the commuter hot spot, with hot food all day and great after work drinks. With a Beer Garden area that is Manchester's best kept secret, this is the place to be in Piccadilly.”
