Busy Saturday morning but we was seated quickly. Juices were fresh and food was delicious. Only disappointed was the coffee it tasted like they was form vending machine which was quite surprising.

Food and drinks are spot on! Salmon comes in generous portions as well as the soup. They’re both flavourful Also they make the best smoothie and milkshakes! Will definitely go back for different menu Service is okay but atmosphere can be loud during peak times

Superior experience. We came for a soft brunch around 11am since we had some small bagels earlier in the morning. First we were waiting around 10 mins while being seated. Order was instant. We followed advice from waitress and got pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Fantastic combination. Flat white and English breakfast tea is a must have option. Restaurant has temperament atmosphere; staff is friendly; served food looks excellent every way I was looking at; and important thing premises are clean. For me nice place for tasty morning breakfast or late morning brunch.

Had an enjoyable time here! The place is so welcoming with all the wooden decor. The staff were incredibly friendly and kind. There’s quite a lot of options for both drinks and food. We have ordered a sour cream salmon bagel and a steak sandwich with scrambled eggs. Everything tastes amazing, especially the sandwich. I’ve ordered a matcha which said it’s non-sweetened. It tastes just right and not too milky.

Have always been impressed by the delicious breakfast and lunches here. Particularly enjoy the sweetcorn fritters and french toast. Lovely friendly service, despite always being very busy. Often a queue for a table but always worth waiting

Visit two of their branches it really didn’t disappoint. If I’m not mistaken this is the biggest branch compared to the other. I have to queue for 15 minutes ish to be able to get a seat. The vibes lively yet warm and cozy, not to mention the friendly staff. Coming here twice both ordered Turkish eggs always, it was creamy, fulfilling also has interesting sauce, for another order we tried french toast it was superb. Coffee was top notch, the drink also has various options depending on your preferences. Must visit if you’re in Manchester! No wonder it’s super popular

I’ve only ever been to federal on Oxford Road but this one is equally amazing. I swear by the French toast !! And I’d never tried a sandwich from there before but the steak sandwich doesn’t disappoint, steak is so perfectly cooked and so tender. The staff are absolutely amazing too !! I think it was the manager that found a table for us to sit at because ours was wobbly!

This place under promises on the outside and over delivers on the inside. It looks like your average high street cafe, then you step in to a quirky cool place to eat. Service was perfect & food was 5 star, definitely worth the money. I would recommend this place for breakfast we had the Manc Muffins and they are better than a McDonalds one.

Had the Big Yin because I was craving some haggis and needed to fuel up for a big day. Every meat was savory and cooked to perfection. If you're looking for a more well-rounded meal, you may want to get something else as it did end up being quite a bit of meat. The portion sizes are deceptively big for the price, I wasn't even close to getting through it all! The staff was really attentive despite how busy the place was. Would definitely come back to try that Manc Breakfast next time I'm in town.

We enjoyed the private dining experience with Marco as our waiter. We had canapés to start, followed by the three course menu. The food was delicious. There was a nice choice of drinks so our guests all had options they liked. Special thanks to Marco who really went above and beyond to look after our guests & us. Marco is a real asset to the Browns Team.

Food was amazing. Had the valentines menu. Well worth the money. Staff was amazing. Heidi kept us topped with drinks. Didn’t have to wait at all really for any part of the evening. Live pianist was a great touch. Stunning building and unique architecture. We’ll work the splash for the experience of this place.

The event was a huge success, and we’ve received glowing feedback from the entire team. Thank you for helping make our celebration so memorable and special.

Absolutely superb place - set in an old historic bank with plenty of marble lining the walls, this is an iconic location for a meal or simply a drink. The service was second to none. We had a friendly bar tender, Oscar, who just made things easy for us. We had the 2 courses for £18.95 menu; effortlessly delicious. Highly recommend

Fantastic from start to finish. From the food which was faultless & very reasonably priced for the quality. The staff which are so friendly & welcoming, from the 2 gentleman at the door when you enter, welcoming staff front of house & servers, all are friendly & do what they can to make your visit as perfect as possible, especially a tall guy called Miltos. If you want a 5* experience at an average price, you will not be disappointed

Yet again, a fantastic meal at The Ivy! Fantastic service throughout from our server, amazingly tasty food. And honestly, it's not massively expensive... yes a little more than what you'd pay in a Spoons, but the food is top notch devine with a wonderful atmosphere and wonderful, personal service! It's our treat. You can pay less than £20 for a two course meal. Also, the App gave an amazing offer... double points... whoop! Thank you once again for an amazing experience.

We were initially drawn to the restaurant by its impressive exterior, and once inside, we were delighted by the stunning ambiance. While the staff were polite, they didn’t come across as particularly warm, though they were still accommodating. The food was decent, though not extraordinary. However, we were pleasantly surprised when we received a complimentary cake after our meal, which was a thoughtful touch and appreciated for the occasion. The restroom, located upstairs, was beautifully decorated, adding to the overall charm of the place. All in all, it was a pleasant experience, with a few small areas for improvement in service, but the hospitality and atmosphere made it memorable.

Definitely the coolest Ivy we have ever been too, the building is out of this world and the inside is just as elegant and mind blowing as the outside. I would definitely recommend going to this place, the food is phenomenal the service is fantastic and if I could rate the atmosphere higher than 5 I would, it's truly an experience I think everyone should try and do. We had the luxury of eating on the top floor and it is definitely the place to be. Overall a fantastic place to dine out, one I would aim to come back to next time I am in Manchester.

I have visited The Ivy Spinningfields Manchester multiple times, and it remains one of my favorite spots. The service is always consistent, and the staff are welcoming and professional. The restaurant is well-known for its excellent reputation and elegant atmosphere. Their desserts are both luxurious and delicious. Their afternoon tea is among the best I’ve ever had. This place is truly exceptional, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

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 :)

Went on Saturday at 1pm, it was full and people were queuing outside! Lovely fresh food, quick service and affordable prices, we paid £60 for 3 starters, 3 main courses and 3 drinks. 1 person from our group is vegan and she thoroughly enjoyed her summer rolls and pho.

Decent veggie brekky with tea for £5.50 (would be nice to have a veggie sausage but was more than enough - you get 2 x egg, 2 x hash brown, mushroom, tomato, beans and 2 slices of buttered toast ). Really friendly staff and fast service despite it being a busy Friday morning. Thanks!

The food and atmosphere were amazing, and good music played while we waited. The food tasted fantastic, and I would love to eat here again. However, the quality of service needs improvement, as we were seated without anyone attending to us to place orders until we called for assistance.

Long time customer of Mike's cafe. Has undergone great development over the years with constantly refreshed food/drink offerings. It is impossible to not be befriended by at least one of the staff, every iteration of employees has been great as the next Fantastic work spot, just as much as a place to dine. Also recommended if you enjoy seeing dogs

I came here for a coffee and it was really good, nice Barista coffee and tasted much better than the usual coffee chains. I came another time for lunch with my mum and the salads here are pretty good. They change and you can choose whichever you want, I had chickpeas and caesar with chicken which was great. They also have sandwiches and toasties. The service was great and I liked the calm atmosphere and modern decor. They have soya milk and other non dairy milks which was good. Overall a great coffee house in Ancoats.

Visited this place when visiting Manchester. The place is walk-in only at the weekend for brunch. We waited no longer than 20 minutes for our table. The menu has loads of choices. The French toast and pancakes looked amazing. I ended up choose a Full English which was cooked well and had great tasting meats. I recommend this as a brunch place.

We regularly come for a weekend breakfast or brunch and wouldn’t go anywhere else. As other reviews have said, the food is amazing and the portions are very generous. Whether you are after something sweet or savoury, there is a great choice and some brilliant specials. The service is also excellent and a special mention must go to Taylor, who is a real star. It is definitely worth the wait if there is a queue outside (and they will lend you an umbrella to keep you dry)!

Stopped by Cafe 19 for breakfast, and it was a fantastic experience! I had the pancakes, which were perfectly fluffy and delicious, while my wife enjoyed the French toast that was just as amazing—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Both dishes were generously portioned and full of flavor. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy, making for a really enjoyable morning. Highly recommend if you're looking for a tasty breakfast spot!

So good we came here 2 days in a row! I found this location through google due to the high star rating and the super picture perfect food. But its not style over substance. It tastes as good as it looks! The first morning i had apple cinnamon French toast and my husband had chocolate chip pancakes. I had pancake envy and wanted to try the pancakes so the second morning just before our drive home i had the berry pancakes and my husband had the oreo french toast. Both sets of food were exceptional! The service was brilliant and a lovely lady even remembered us discussing where we were going the day before. We wouldnt hesitate to visit again! Highly recommend a trip if your in Manchester!

Great full English breakfast! Especially the beans, eggs, and mushrooms. Smoked salmon as an extra is also fresh. Sausages and bacon are a little bit too oily for me so I didn’t finish. Potatoes are a bit hard to bite. Cartado to me is too sour (just personal taste). The staff are kind and warm. However I waited for 20 minutes after ordering and I was very hungry. But the taste worth it! Next time I may try a pancake. What’s more, is there any one know what the black stuff on the fork is? It seems like toast but has a taste of meat. Really appreciate!
