"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."

"I didn't get a chance to try the food, but the atmosphere was nice and the staff were friendly. It was a great spot to stop at after a walk along the canal. I would rate the service and atmosphere both a 5 out of 5."

"Such dependably delicious food, has gradually become one of our favourite places to eat in Manchester. The summer rolls in particular have to be the best in the city. Pho is lovely, prices are reasonable, and service is always quick and friendly even when busy (which they usually are! Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch"

"Delicious brunch! I could have tried everything on the menu. I ran from Stretford to meet my friends, and we sat outside in the back area, which was a perfect spot to cool down. I ordered a variety of drinks, including pressed apple juice and delicious black coffee. For my meal, I had a chocolate croissant followed by a Cobb salad, which had the perfect balance, and the dressing tied everything together beautifully. Other members of the group enjoyed the breakfast, burritos, and pancakes. Everyone left feeling satisfied and happy. The owners and waitstaff were incredibly friendly and attentive without being intrusive. It was a wonderful way to spend part of the weekend!"

"wasnt going to write a review but having booked in for my grandma's 88th birthday and to be told to go elsewhere if we wanted to be accomedated when we were sat at the table i can't not!! Such a shame as it did seem like it could be a bice little venue! Our waitress was helpfull enough, it seemed to be the management/ chef that wasnt, (which i assume was sarah) Even my grandma at 88 picked up on how we weren't really welcome there, It was an extremely awkward experience. We were recommended this place by family member whos a local who said it was nice! I've since told told family they need to try other places as if this is how they're treated then there's a whole new world out there. We arrived to being the only ones there and immediately felt an awkward presence like we shouldnt of been there! (Excluding one young girl with blond hair who was extremely apologetic to the lack of service they could offer) if it wasnt for her we would of left!! We immediately felt like we shouldn't of been there although we were booked in. We had already had a text to say that a new girl had booked us in and they couldn't accommodate us at 10.30 so to come at 11. We turned up at 11 and were given a drinks menu. We asked for a food menu and were told we don't really offer breakfast!! Were shocked as we booked in for breakfast. My mum had come from Liverpool and myself from Bury to take my grandma out for her Birthday! We asked for a few simple breakfast items eggs, bagles etc to be told to go down the road to another place if we wanted them!! I understand mistakes happen if they have booked us in too early but I'm sure they could if accomedated us for a little more. I would like to try for tapas but being so far away and the experience we've had I don't think it's worth the travel for us. Such a shame I think the chefs attitude could of been a little bit better and more accomedated."
