"After we have tried various places to eat on a bank holiday to discover it completely booked or rude fellow workers, we have luck with our 5th attempt. it was so refreshing to be welcomed and informed, there were food available. our friends were vegan and this place had a lot of choice surprising for them! we had happy to arrive during the happy hour 2 for 1 cocktails. I chose a distinctive mojito that was made beautiful. for beginners I really wanted to taste chicken wings or the mac n cheese, but I worship bulton. When that came, it was just like the one my friend had brought back from Malawi. it was convenient to use a paper bag that offers a medium for snacks later and kitty tasty. for the net order all hate one? a thick broth plate, filled with various meats such as lamb or pebbles. I had a bobadi dish that were baked with mint. all seasoned were perfect and generous. overall really good service and a beautiful variety especially for vegan vegan vegans."

"We were very excited to experience the food at Stretford canteen given the rav reviews, we chose the restaurant instead of Street Urchin in Ancoats my sons 30th birthday, we were disappointed to be regretting our choice. The flavour of the food was good however the quality and quantity didn’t meet our expectations, the short rib was exceptionally fatty so you couldn’t eat much of it and we ended up having to order more to feel satisfied. The accompanying purées and vegetables weren’t enough for the men in our party of five. I was also disappointed by the texture of the choices bun and the amount of crème patisseries The bill for five was £288 that’s a lot of money for us, we were hoping for some special and we were also rushed out of the restaurant and I wasn’t advised there was a time on the table. Sadly the restaurant didn’t live up to the hype. We won’t be returning."

"Nous sommes venus ici parce que c'était un établissement de restauration sans gluten. Le personnel était vraiment sympathique et l'ambiance générale de l'endroit était très professionnelle. Notre nourriture est venue et c'était hors de ce monde. La présentation sur les assiettes était incroyable. J'ai vraiment apprécié mon repas, d'autant plus que je n'avais pas à me soucier d'être saturé. La carte des desserts était super. Mon partenaire et moi-même avons choisi les crêpes protéinées et encore une fois, la présentation était fantastique. Ils étaient vraiment aussi beaux qu'ils avaient goûté. J'ai hâte de visiter à nouveau"

"AMAZING FOOD! I ordered the vegetarian pho with tofu and veggie chicken (which was delicious and the portion size was huge! This bowl is bigger than my head. Their menu prices have gone up slightly compared to another photo you might find in reviews but it is still great prices for great food and lovely service, staff went out of their way for me and made sure to say goodbye even when they were enjoying their own lunch! Would recommend, even the coffee was lovely :"

"Hearing about a traditional fish and chip shop in Prestwich, complete with a restaurant and bar, and cooking in beef-dripping with the option for vegetable oil (call to confirm vegetable oil availability), I was compelled to check it out. Upon entering the shop, I found myself in the bar area, with access to the restaurant located upstairs. The bar was furnished with tables, chairs, and stools for those wishing to enjoy a drink or avoid the stairs. It is encouraging to see young people engaged in the fish and chip shop trade, potentially leading to more traditional establishments in the future. The cod, although slightly smaller than expected, was delicious and cooked to perfection. The chips were among the best I’ve had in a long time. The pea fritters, black pudding fritters, and tartare sauce were also excellent. In-house pies were available as well, so I sampled the cheese and onion and meat and potato varieties and can recommend both. There is parking available across the street and on-street. However, the opening hours might not suit those looking for a lunchtime meal, as at the time of this review, the hours are Tuesday to Saturday from 4:30 PM to 8:30 PM, and closed on Sunday and Monday.
