Reviews Summary

Diners rave about the vibrant atmosphere and exceptional value, especially for bottomless brunch and happy hour deals. While the cocktails and friendly service receive high praise, some guests feel the Caribbean food could be more authentic and flavorful. However, many agree that the overall experience is enjoyable and worth returning for.

"Considering it was busy, we had 13 drinks EACH (2 people) on the bottomless brunch. It was absolutely amazing tasty food and the drinks were perfect. Nice and strong not watered down, Gen served us she was so lovely and friendly. She made sure we constantly had drinks (getting the most out of our bottomless brunch) the food was freshly cooked and was amazing. Flavours were unreal and the atmosphere was happy and really nice. Music playing in the back and lots of happy people. We had two extra drinks added onto after the receipt!"

Cool places to dine and drink in Manchester

Turtle Bay in the Northern Quarter and on Oxford Street serves up Jamaican food and a laid-back vibe and Cheadle’s acclaimed Southern Indian-style street food at the Indian Tiffin Room is now open for business on First Street. There’s no denying the glamour of restaurants such as San Carlo and sister restaurant San Carlo Cicchetti. Ever since Carlo Distefano opened his famed restaurant on King Street West it has been a magnet for a glamorous set and, with Fumo opening on Oxford Street, this family business is one of the most successful in the city.
