  “Visiting for a wedding and oh my GOD, this place is such a treasure. The food is amazing (bottomless brunch for 35P), the vibes immaculate, but the kindness and friendliness of the staff is top-notch. Manchester is truly blessed to have such a wonderful staple in their Northern Quarter. 100 years of success to the staff of Fress :)”

  “Fress is hands down one of Manchester’s brunch kings. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm, stylish, and buzzing without feeling chaotic. The staff are genuinely welcoming, attentive, and make you feel like a valued guest rather than just another table. The food? Absolutely outstanding. Every plate arrives looking like it belongs on Instagram, but the best part is that it actually tastes even better than it looks. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, and flavours that hit every note. Whether you’re there for the legendary French toast, steak and eggs, or one of their incredible brunch specials, it’s clear that quality comes first. The coffee is excellent, the presentation is flawless, and every detail, from the décor to the service, shows real care and passion. It’s rare to find a place that nails atmosphere, food, and hospitality all at once, but Fress does exactly that. If you’re in Manchester and you skip Fress, you’re missing one of the city’s true brunch gems. An easy 10/10. I’ll be back again and again.”

  “This is a really great restaurant with an extensive menu. We had a really yummy brunch here yesterday. My steak was as perfect as I’ve ever had. I asked for well-done and it was cooked through without being in the slightest bit charred. Everything was scrumptious and we ended up staying for a pudding (cinnamon crunch - highly recommend!!) the service is absolutely lovely and the restaurant has a great atmosphere. It’s definitely going to become a regular for us 😊”

  “I went to Fress for my birthday brunch with a group of my friends. The initial service wasn't the best, though I feel that was simply due to a mix up of the booking system when i was trying to book the table. The waiter let us know for next time to just call the restaurant up if anything. The food was so so good, every plate was cleared. Very affordable. All my friends loved what they ordered, I feel there is a nice variety and uniqueness on the menu in comparison to brunch spots. I personally had the steak and eggs on cheesy hash, and I am still dreaming of that plate now! They also gave me a free mocktail for my birthday which was a really sweet touch and that was really tasty too!”

  “Travelled from Blackburn after I won the ‘Meal for Two’ giveaway through Instagram and brought my mum with me to try this place out as it has been on my ‘to-go’ list for so long. Safe to say it did not disappoint! The service was amazing thank you so much (so sorry I didn’t get the name of our server) the food was delicious! Going to need a good sleep now 🤣 Sent us into a food coma. We ordered the Full English and Smashed Avocado with a Hazelnut Iced Latte. Everything was perfect :)”

  “Had an incredible experience from start to finish! The food was delicious packed with flavour and presented beautifully. Service was fast and smooth, and a big thank you to Rubel for looking after us so well. He explained each dish in detail and made sure we had everything we needed. Can’t wait to come back again!”

  “I came here for my birthday to have some brunch with my girls before the spa and everything was 10/10. The service provided by Rubel was amazing and he went above and beyond to make sure that all of us were enjoying our food and drinks and was super attentive to our needs. Rubel honestly carried the experience as he listened to my drink request and surprised me with this yummy mocktail daiquiri, plus he let us play some music, as it was quieter, has great customer skills and threw in some freebies as it was my birthday. Furthermore, i’m glad that the food matched the service as we all thoroughly enjoyed our food and couldn’t even finish it all due to the portions; great value for money. To conclude, i would and will be back and would recommend here to people looking for brunch with a vibe. 💖”

  “We visited last weekend for brunch. I had the chicken waffle and my friend one of the pancakes. The food was not bad and its halal, which is a plus. We just found the pancake a bit too sweet. We were very lucky and did not have to wait for a table even though it was Sunday. The coffee was one of the best you can get in the city centre and tge service was friendly and very fast. Within an hour we ordered, ate and paid”
