  “Popped in for a quick drink and discovered they do dinner. So full roast beef Sunday dinner it was. Wow..thats the best Sunday dinner I've ever had (sorry mum) really nice. The staff were friendly and the food served quickly. They have pie of the day so we will return for that if its half as good as the Sunday dinner it will be amazing. I had a pint of Guinness which was also really nice one of the best ive had. So all in all a great place for dinner.”

  “Molly’s service was 10/10. I would come back just because of her good treatment. Food was ok and the place is one of its kind in the city. I would visit again but i’d expect to spend a little bit less. Nacho x”

  “Wonderful place, I have been here in occasion of an holiday from Italy with my family. We all had fish and chips and it was great, portions were huge! The service was nice and gentile, I give 4 points to the environment because it is a bit narrow. Anyway I advice this place to everyone.”

  “There are some elements of the Sunday Roast at The Chop House which could be improved upon... the potatoes could do with a touch more roasting to give them some crispiness, and the Chicken would benefit from a little bit more of the same crispiness on the skin... BUT... You can not flaw the sheer amount of food you're given. This has to be the best value Sunday Roast. I was defeated by my half chicken... Leaving just the wing on the plate, but then I did have an extra Yorkshire pudding (flawless and huge), and the service was perfect - friendly, knowledgeable, warm and welcoming. If you're looking for a healthy portion of food, with sensational gravy (get the sourdough boule you'll thank me for it) head to Thomas's Chop House this winter!”

  “I loved this place! The host was great and the service was fast. The food was really nice and interesting, nothing like i've seen before! Typical British, i assume, but more interesting than ordinary fish and chips. The location was great and the inside was super cute!”

  “I was with a large group. Ordered a few days before arriving. We were given a menu with no prices on, but they had the menu online, so checked the prices on their website. We ate and then were given the prices, mine was £5 more than the online price. So questioned why it was more. The lady said oh the prices went up today, I said just today conveniently? She said yes unfortunately. But you still have the menu I saw online, on now. And that was the price I assumed we would be paying. Nobody said the prices were going to go up!! And if they were going up today! They should’ve let us know, don’t you think? They went up today because there was a conservative conference on! Also have a look at my photo, does that meal justify £34?? I had also ordered the side of green veg, but that didn’t come till after I had nearly finished my meal. And the green veg was £5 on top of the £34! So £39 for my meal. A pub meal! It tasted nice, but not worth the price. This is not a restaurant, it’s a pub meal. I thought the service was slow, we were booked in for 6pm and I didn’t get any food until 7.20. And then my veg came 10 mins later! £39 is totally over inflated for the price of my meal, because the conservative conference was in town! I ordered the Barnsley Chop. My friend had ordered the house pie, but was expecting at least some meat. The pie was mashed potatoes and cheese, no onion. She was hoping for at least chicken or steak. And she was charged £21 for a cheese and potato pie! I have to say I won’t be recommending Mr Thomas’s Chop House to anyone I’m afraid. I wasn’t impressed with the level of service or the lack of communication about the price of the menu. We should have been given the prices before we ate, instead they made it up to their liking. That’s really not the way to do business. We weren’t part of any political meeting, we were there on business, but nothing to do with what was happening in Manchester this week. I feel that the prices were inflated because of this, which was unfair. UPDATE We were not a party of 30, there was only about 20 of us, there was another group of people with a separate booking who were at our conference. The menu was exactly the same, I fail to see what you changed other than sticking £5 increase on everything! A bit of a steep increase I think, the food certainly does not justify the price! Frozen chips, not triple cooked. They looked and tasted just like McCain’s steak chips. It’s only a pub in Manchester, not a fancy restaurant. With regards to the pie, I’m 100% sure, that people expect a meat pie from a chop house, not cheese and mash. It’s just beige food carb overload. I would listen to your customers and change that pie. I was disappointed in the Mr Thomas’s Chop House and if I was the owner I’d definitely listen to your customer feedback and change the price, the service and the menu, and make it a better experience.”

  “Delicious elevated pub food! This was our first meal in the UK after traveling from the US and it was so tasty! Great food and great beer. The atmosphere is also very nice and cozy!”

  “Mr Thomas’s Chop House is a charming slice of old-Manchester — with its Victorian tiles, narrow layout, and historic atmosphere, it feels like stepping into the past.  The menu sticks to classic British fare — think hearty dishes like corned beef hash, steak & kidney pudding, and traditional roasts.  Many diners praise the corned beef hash in particular.  Service reviews are mixed: polite and attentive at times, though some guests note slow food delivery and occasional crowding delays.”

  “I had a lovely Sunday roast here—perfectly cooked, flavourful, and exactly what you’d hope for in a rainy Sunday cozy. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. However, the service left something to be desired; it felt inattentive. Overall, a great place for food and ambiance, but the service could use some improvement”
