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!

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.

The design is perfect, the concept is perfect the presentation is perfect. Despite the fact that they’re busy especially on a Sunday, the waiting time for your food is short. The coffee is good (most coffees in Manchester tastes stronger compared to London but this place was good!) I’d say this place is a must visit if in Manchester!

Went for brunch today at Ezra & Gil (Helper and Happiness) Hilton Street Manchester. Our server was Kate, she was very helpful and let us change scrambled eggs for poached on 1 of the brunch orders. We asked for the drinks to come with the food so you don't get the drinks first, and then have to order more she was very concerned if we had any allergies, which was excellent. We ordered French toast which was amazing, and 2 breakfasts, the scrambled eggs were the best my wife has ever had and my poached eggs were nice and runny, the food came quickly and was very well cooked and hot Dog friendly always a bonus, lots of high chairs were also available for young families, great mix of customers, both old and young, you can also buy their products , coffee beans and bread, takeaway also available, recommend checking this establishment out, you can also get alcohol .

It was my first time visiting and it definitely will not be my last! Me & my partner were seated quickly with a warm welcome and explained the menu and how to order. The bloody Mary’s were to die for, possibly the best I’ve ever had! The food was fresh and delicious and always served with a smile, worth every penny!

What a nice place to come, have breakfast and relax. This is my first time here and it was a nice ambiance. The food and coffee were amazing. We had the pleasure of having Kate and Laura assist us. They were very attentive. I definitely recommend this place if you’re ever in to Manchester.

Came for brunch this morning and have to do a special shout out to Abbi, who was so accommodating and lovely! I'm 35 weeks pregnant and she went above and beyond and even though it was so busy, she found me somewhere to sit whilst waiting and even made sure I got a suitable table plus providing service with a smile! The food and coffee was fab too!

This off the beaten track venue is definitely worth a visit, staff, food and atmosphere are all good. The menu isn't vast but there's still plenty of options to suit virtually all tastes. The wine options are very good, plenty of variety especially if you want to splash out a little I haven't been to the White Hart for some time, but I'll certainly return soon.

Really nice pub/restaurant, staff were excellent, as was the service. The food was of very good quality and well presented. My only niggle is that the portion size it was definitely sized to "leave room for dessert". I had the sausage which came with mash and green beans could have done with a second veg in there as well. Nice coffee, all said pretty good.

A lovely restaurant and the food was amazing but our only complaint was that the tables are too close together! We booked in at 7pm and it was quite relaxed with guests spread out, nice background music and the ability to communicate across our table. By 8pm the restaurant was so full and that loud we couldn't hear each other across the table! This really took the enjoyment away from an otherwise enjoyable experience. If we came back we would certainly book an earlier slot or risk a later one hoping its calmed down again

#RecommendedbySollyDj. This review is by an Indian guy who loves spicy food but can mange to eat and enjoy all kinds of food. Went with a group of 8 on 01/12/2023. 1. Food was really good. 2. Good selection of drinks 3. Service was very good and the waiters knew their menu and made good recommendations. 4. Loved the desserts. 5. Wine tasted good because the rooms were maintained warm despite -4 degrees outside. I would recommend the steak with peppercorn sauce. The pastries in the desserts was lovely. My colleague said that the Ferraro Roche was better than sex and mind you.. she is Italian. The lemon dessert is for you if you don’t like it too sweet. Location feels remote and slow down and find the parking which is ample.

Been here quite a few times over past couple of years. Place is always extremely busy and a really good vibe. Food has always been excellent and really good taste. I'd say its slightly on the expensive side compared to other Italians however still a good menu. Feel the only slight thing that let's this place down is the staff can be quite abrupt and make you feel rushed and can sometimes seem as if they not interested. However on the whole good. Will go again but will try different one first unless it's an invited occasion. Car park is large and has over flow altho can get quite full. I'd always recommend booking in advance.

The pasta & pizzas are cooked to perfection! Always book in advance as it gets very full quickly! Great for weddings parties ! Summer time is beautiful the doors open over the lake ! It’s a must try if you like real authentic Italian food ! Very family oriented a great day out or evening! Very romantic as well for couples!

Had a lovely visit to Diggle Lock, unfortunately was only stopping for a quick coffee (and a cookie once my attention was grabbed at the till) Coffee was lovely along with an amazing gooey cookie to go with it! The atmosphere was very nice, we visited close to closing time so was rather empty but I could tell just from the layout and design how nice of a spot this was! They had a nice log burner in the corner that was perfect for the post winter walk! Would recommend!

We tried 3 kinds of food they have and they were all quite nice. Especially impressed by their seasonal special bailey french toast in its moist texture and plenty of flavouring! Club sandwich was giant and fried chicken was seasoned well. Pancake is however not as expected as it turned out a bit too “sticky”and not fluffy enough for me. It is still a lovely place for brunch in the neighbourhood / Oldham. I think I will come visit again.

A small group of us ate at the Kings Arms last week for a lovely catch-up meal. I'd read many of the reviews, so I was excited to visit myself, and it did not disappoint. The food we had was presented very well and the service was wonderful. We very much enjoyed our visit and would not hesitate to return if ever in the area.

From beginning to end, the experience was absolutely fantastic. Having become accustomed to haphazard service over the years, it was really a breath of fresh air to find somewhere that does customer service properly. Attentive, friendly staff serving some of the best food in the area. We had a great night and will be returning soon!

I visited Fig + Sparrow based on the numerous 5* reviews on Google. I came on a Friday at 1pm, and it wasn’t too busy. Perhaps 50% of the place was full. There is a good amount of seating available, and when I arrived, there was a small but delicious-looking selection of pastries and bakes on the counter. There is always a wide variety of drinks available on the menu, and a bar at the back which serves savoury food. I asked the lady if the counter items were baked fresh and if they were vegetarian (halal in my case), and she said they were baked fresh, and suitable for vegetarians and halal foodies! The staff were very inviting. The lady explained what each item was, and she even gave me her personal recommendation. 10/10 for such caring staff :) I ordered a Cinnamon Bun and Latte to eat in. Those buns looked too good to overlook. Also, exceptional presentation of all the bakery items. The Cinnamon Bun was delicious! It was sticky, not too sweet, and full of cinnamon and brown sugar flavour. The Latte was also yummy, and had a lovely pattern on top. Overall, I am very happy I visited Fig + Sparrow, and I will definitely bring my friends next time. This place is too good not to share with others! I would highly recommended this place to those who like coffee shops, and just want to sit and chill :D
