About Caravan Manchester

On Goods Yard St, Caravan Manchester runs as an all-day restaurant and bar serving breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. Seasonal menus mix globally inspired plates, from vanilla pancakes and baked eggs to grain bowls and sourdough pizzas, including margarita and anchovies varieties. The Korean Fried Chicken comes with kimchi pancakes, and a salmon rice bowl also appears on the menu, with tiramisu among the desserts. Seating spans tables and booths of different sizes, and a bar and outdoor terrace add to the format alongside a private dining room set up for groups. Specialty coffee from Caravan Coffee Roasters runs through the day, and cocktails feature into the evening. Dogs are welcome throughout. The mix of formats suits meetings and catch-ups as much as weekend brunch or dinner with friends.

Customer Review Summary

Pizza draws the most attention, though opinions split: several diners call it fantastic or sublime, praising the anchovies pizza and a margarita alongside the flatbread, while one reviewer felt the base was underbaked and soft. Close behind, brunch dishes earn repeat praise, especially the Korean Fried Chicken with kimchi pancakes, baked eggs with lamb merguez, chorizo and potato hash, and salmon rice bowls, with tiramisu singled out often for dessert. Service is consistently described as friendly and accommodating, staff moving reservations around during a busy Valentine's night and one manager granting a discount after a gift voucher issue with no QR code. The space itself, with its booths, bar, and DJ setup, is repeatedly called lovely or gorgeous. A couple of minor notes surface, like a "potato hash" turning out to be roasted potatoes rather than hash browns, and one diner preferring a different meatball filling, but these read as small asides rather than real complaints.

    “Nice place! The food was delicious and surprising in ways. Anchovies pizza was fantastic. Nice base. Not too many anchovies, and with a touch of salsa and fresh parsley. A lovely combination. Padron peppers and rosemary fries were great too.”

    “came in yesterday for the first time and was very impressed with the lay out of the restaurant before i came in i was gifted a voucher to use at the restaurant but had some problems with it I'll come on to that at the end i had 3 choices on the night but chose not to have dessert I started with a lamb meatballs as starter which was nice but the meat wasn't to my satisfaction as i preferred a different kind of meat I chose a margarita pizza and had a house flatbread the bill was around 30 pounds now onto the voucher problem i was gifted 25 pounds to use on the night however the person who bought it for me didn't have a QR code on the email which was required when it came to paying for the bill it was a confirmation email instead with no other attachment i explained the situation to the manager by stating the email that proved the gift card that was bought me didn't include a QR code Sarah the manager did take a photo of the email i had and granted me 25 pounds off the bill i was most grateful and left feeling very lucky to have it deducted from the bill if you are going to buy a gift card for family or friends please make sure you don't have the same problem as me but all in all a very successful evening staff so friendly very welcoming and left feeling joyful at the end thanks again to Sarah and the team i will return very soon thanks guys”

    “I would give 7/10 to the brunch, but the salmon rice tastes so good and fresh! Tiramisu tastes softer, not bad Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is nice! 👍”

    “Really wonderful food and service in a great venue. Loved it. I had the prix fixe menu- two courses for £21. Unbeatable. I had the pork schnitzel followed by tiramisu. My dining companion went to the main menu and had a sublime pizza. Will cone back.”

    “I had the chorizo and potato hash, and it is absolutely loaded. I couldn’t even finish it all. My friend ordered the pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. She enjoyed her meal very much. The portions were substantial. The taste was great. Presentation was cute. The interior of the restaurant was gorgeous. It’s a lovely place to go for a day or evening date, or with friends and family. We enjoyed the smoothies too. One thing to note, and this may have just been a me thing, is that when it says ‘potato hash’, don’t expect hash browns. They’re more like roasted potatoes briefly squashed, as you might be able to tell from the picture. No issue on taste or anything though!”
