  “This is the midland restaurant and bar which is used in the morning for the hotel guests breakfast. We stayed for a night which included a three course evening meal. I booked this because we stayed a few weeks ago - but without the meal and enjoyed the hotel - so we were looking forward to it. Sadly the menu for such a plush hotel was very poor. Bangers and mash,burgers and fishcake was the choice of mains. The taste of the food was average. Burgers were stunning looking but dry. My starter of breaded mushrooms was nice but the chocolate brownie horribly dry. I noticed they had given us a different menu than other guests, probably because we bought the package. This in itself isn't a problem if the choice was a bit more interesting let's say. Plus the three course meal was £150 more than the bed and breakfast we had done a few weeks earlier. If you wanted a steak it was another £8.00 on top of the £150 already paid! The service was awful. Had to wait and wait for each course to be cleared and after yet another wait my wife had to go and ask where our desserts were. When we eventually got up to leave nobody seemed to know where they had put our coats and to top it all they insisted on us paying for our drinks despite the fact we were staying on a bed, breakfast and evening meal basis. Front of house staff were fantastic and said they would reimburse us for the meals. It hasn't gone in my bank yet but they did say it can take ten days. Just an update. We received £60.00 back which is under half of what we expected. Better than nothing I suppose.”

  “I was surprised to see this restaurant on the Confidentials app, offering £25 vouchers for a £50 spend. I opted for the Confit Chicken and Morel Mushroom Terrine to start, followed by the Butternut Wellington for my main. I had no complaints about these dishes other than the portion size…miniscule! My friend ordered differently but found the same. When we got home, I pretty much made a second dinner. Perhaps we should have bought a voucher each, rather than sharing one. Drinks were expensive. Service was formal.”

  “I had breakfast here, and it’s interesting to have such deluxe breakfast in the U.K. I love the egg bar, and the chef who cooked the omelette for me was wonderful and lovely. The overall vibe therein was marvellous.”

  “Great place. Amazing steaks and grills. Food was beautifully presented from starters to desserts. Wasn't a fan of the starters except the scallops. The kids menu is really boring and wouldn't recommend even for the price. It's basically nuggets or fish fingers so we ordered the cod from the main menu for toddler, which we enjoyed. Would go again for grills and drinks. Drinks and cocktails were good as well.”

  “Disappointing experience here for my birthday. Was taken as a treat by a friend who had prepaid for my meal. Started promisingly with two tasty starters of scallops and truffle mushrooms on toast with a poached egg. Really delicious. Main course, my partner chose the beef cheek (delicious) and I chose the 10z sirloin steak with peppercorn sauce and harissa salt chips. Then the wheels came off... I don't think the chips were salted at all. The peppercorn sauce was very sweet and not at all the peppery tang I'd hoped for. But the steak itself - 5oz of it was just pure fat. Pretty much inedible. I mentioned this to the lovely waitress who collected our plates and she agreed it was very fatty and said 'let me see what I can do'. Then watched her approach another staff member (youngish bearded guy in a suit), and show him the plate, at which point he then looked at our table and then shake his head! As if who we are and what we looked like made any difference to the fact that they served me a steak that looked like it had been cut from a blubber whale. One nice touch was a pre ordered happy birthday plate. Very nice surprise. Desserts we chose were the roasted pineapple and coconut - bother were not great. Ice cream was mostly melted on both by the time we got them. The first was a weird dessicated little shard of something coconutty and strange tasting pineapple. And the peanut butter and chocolate cheesecake was rich and claggy, which I'm afraid I found quite cloying. Honeycomb was good though. Then there was a long delay with the bill as the aforementioned bearded waiter forgot it. Then the bill was wrong which took more time to sort. And after all that they still added a service charge! And anywhere that charges £4.50 for a bottle of still water is just shocking in my book. Had high expectations but sadly only 3/6 dishes were decent and the service wasn't quite up to par - it felt a little chaotic. Not the best birthday experience alas. Photos supplied (note the fatty steak!).”

  “Excellent British Restaurant parked in the midland hotel. Very nice cozy dining room. Very good value ala cart and set menus. Simple yet refined dishes made with very well sourced British produce. Flavors we bold and techniques we faultless. From the starters, mains and desserts everything was very good. Stand out dessert was the brown butter cake, perfect toasty butter flavor with a nice gooey texture. Their twist on a rhubarb crumble was interesting. Only gets 4/5 stars as the meal overall might have been a little heavy but probably due to the season and the dishes we ordered. Service was excellent and attentive. Cocktail menu was interesting. Well made and tasty. Overall a must go if your in the Manchester area.”

  “The food is very tasty. The staff are very friendly and their suggests are reliable and helpful. The price is a bit higher than other restaurant but it's worth. Don't forget to have this liquor with dessert.”

  “Service as sharp, attentive, friendly and all round impeccable when it comes to allergies. The environment is vibrant. Cocktails are inventive and tasty. Food is hit and miss. The lamb rump was tender and served with cracked wheat, giving it a nice balance. The trout was also well cooked but unfortunately a bit too salty. Serving size is perfect.”
