Reviews
We had the pleasure of trying the four-course lunch menu at Skof, and it was truly exceptional. The meal offered fantastic value for money, with generous portions that left us satisfied without feeling overstuffed, thanks to the light and well-balanced dishes. The service was outstanding, but what stood out most was the relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere. Unlike many overpriced restaurants in Manchester, Skof embraces a casual dress code, allowing guests to feel at ease. The choice of music was also a highlight, perfectly set at a low volume, creating an enjoyable ambiance. We already can’t wait to go again and next time we’ll be trying the tasting menu. Well done Tom and the team 😊
We had a fantastic evening at Skof on 28th December. The food and atmosphere were fantastic. The staff are attentive and knowledgable when presenting each dish/wine pairing. The extra touches that make Skof such a memorable experience are brilliant. Well done!
Had an absolutely outstanding 15 course tasting menu, utterly sublime 😋. Staff were amazing, as was Tom himself who we had the pleasure of talking to. I would highly recommend to anyone and as a bonus they serve a beautiful Sussex sparkling white wine.
Amazing. Had the 16 course taster menu with the wine pairing and it was just fantastic. You get to have one course sat with Tom by the kitchen and he is a genuinely nice, zero ego guy. Wish him the best of luck getting his Michelin star.
Excellent. The food was delicious, with well considered combinations and beautiful arrangements. There were many memorable dishes on the shorter tasting menu. The cod and the duck stood out for me, but there were other preferences on our table. Everything was very good. The service was superb - pleasant, helpful, apparently relaxed, but highly efficient. The environment was comfortable, but also quite cool - probably about the right size to create a pleasing hum of music and chatter without it being too noisy to talk to other people on the table. It was also an enjoyable addition to the evening to be invited to the chef's table for one of the courses. Could anything have been better? Nothing that matters too much, really. Although the wine, beer and soft drinks pairings included some drinks that I enjoyed so much that I would like to track them down and buy them, others were more 'interesting' than enjoyable, possibly seeking contrast when something more harmonious migh have been more enjoyable? It is not surprising that Skof is booked up for the next few months. We have been to many tasting menu restaurants in England and abroad and this is up there with the very best - for the combination of the food and the enjoyable experience. Skof deserves to be a great success.
