  “Food took 1 hr 30 mins to come. No phone number to contact them. Just a knock off bando boxes really. I seriously recommend not to order from these, you get the food and the chicken is as dry as my exs lips”

  “AVOID AT ALL COSTS, Sharp small fragment of glass/plastic found in food. Was found whilst EATING it, took said peice of glass/plastic to trap kitchen along with the food it was found in. They all got completely defensive, started laughing in my face and shouting at me, didn’t look into it, completely denied that it came from them. Refused to help in any sort of capacity. Will be taking further.”

  “Food overall was decent. Pretty expensive for what you actually get. Horrible that the waffles are placed with the food. £15 but no drink included which is another downside. Waited over an hour for food. Area is very sketchy so keep an eye for rats”

  “7:17pm ordered my food. Didn't get it till 8:30. You might think that's fine for delivery, but it wasn't delivery. I ordered from the window and waited a hour an 10 minutes. After 30 minutes I was told it'd be 20 minutes , turned out to be another 40 minutes. Turns out you can also pay £5 for your food to be prioritised. When you pay £15 for a tray of food, another 5er is unacceptable. Mac and cheese was nice. Chicken was really dry on the outside, had to pick the edible meat off the dried top layer. Order was missing my corn on the cob. Friday night, no waffles, no lobster. Their trap juice is not juice. It is melted blue slush puppy bottled up and sold for £3.50 They seem to be prioritising Uber eats orders. We've seen 20 riders come and go in the time we waited for food. Lovely ambience whilst waiting, scenic views of bins and wildlife(rats) running around.”

  “Waited ONE HOUR for mediocre food cooked in too much oil. Had to sit in the car, in a back street, staring at bins while we waited. Absolutely not okay and not worth the wait.”

  “Overall i enjoyed the food and experience and would go again. i’m quite antisocial so i loved how its just a window you go to, say your order then you go back to your car and wait for the buzzer to go off. It’s quite expensive at £20 a box but i shared it as i wasn’t that hungry. Macaroni, corn and prawns were so delicious and had a lovely sauce on them. the lobster was a little dry. It could be abit cheaper but it was good.”

  “I’ve heard a lot about this chain in London, so I was excited to try the Manchester branch, since my cousin lives nearby and I’m visiting. Unfortunately, my experience didn’t quite live up to expectations. The seafood combo was a bit underwhelming, and it seemed like the crab legs weren’t fresh—the meat was dry, possibly from being precooked/defrosted. The broccoli tempura didn’t quite hit the mark either. It clumped together, lacked freshness, and was quite oily, which deviated from the light and crispy texture I expected from tempura. The prawns were a bit overcooked, and while the mac and cheese was decent, it didn’t stand out. Overall, the meal felt average, but with a few adjustments, it could really elevate the experience. I hope they consider refining some of the dishes for a better balance of freshness and flavor. I’d be open to giving it another try if improvements are made. But as it stands, it’s not a place I recommend.”

  “The wait is a little long to get served the food (approx 40 minutes) however, this is worth every second. Food is very flavoursome, hearty and big portions for what you pay. Everything is well made, seasoned and fresh. The baller’s combo was £25 at the time of this review and is almost big enough for 2 people.”

  “Trap Kitchen was very over priced and extremely disappointing. As you can see from the receipt the chicken wings were £7.99 in one portion there was only 4 wings the other had 5. Both wing orders were ment to have sweet potatoe fries and both came with normal chips. I lived in the USA for eight years so I know what chicken and waffles are like and what I had couldn't be further from that. I've given two stars because the mac and cheese was good however I would look elsewhere in the future.”

  “This place is in high demand. The wait time can be a bit much but it’s definitely worth the wait because the quality of the food is amazing. Travelled all the way from London just to get the taste of real seafood. The Lobster tail is the better option than the crab legs in my opinion. Crab legs was a bit too spicy and salty and a little bit of a hassle to eat. And I was way too hungry to go through that hassle. I had the lobster tail, bang bang prawns, mac & cheese and waffles. DELICIOUS!!! I just wish it wasn’t just a take away spot because the amount of time I spent waiting on my food was long since I had to stand. I didn’t have a car so that definitely wasn’t a comfortable wait. All in all, I can’t really fault the place because the food has me wanting more n more.”
