12 Best Cocktail Bars in Manchester

“my favorite place in the whole wide world. If any one asks for a manch rec I only tell them here. This is the only place you should go. Best food, drinks and SERVICE ever.“

“Great food!!! Love the staff and atmosphere!!“

“I wanted to update my review, I spoke with the kitchen manager John today and after speaking with him I am ready to give this establishment another try and put the misunderstanding behind us. I appreciate him reaching out to me and not only listening to my complaints but found a more than fair resolution. If the food is half as good a John's customer service I'm sure it will be great. Thanks again for reaching out!“

“So. Stinking. Delicious. I had a hard time picking out what to get…I’m already planning my next visit. From the food to the service, everything was top notch!“

“Great environment welcoming for all people -plus amazing pretzels“

“A*. Would definitely recommend“

“This place is amazing! I love the remodel- old-timey vibe with a laid-back feel. Drinks were so imaginative and complex. I appreciated the food too-I'm going to try and recreate the Mahummara dip (if I'm spelling it right). Considerate server. I really can't recommend it enough. I've been twice and had a great experience both times.

Vegetarian options: There were vegan and vegetarian options.“

“I ordered a Large Thai Ice Tea , Bulgogi Beef Baos & short rib Garlic Noodles . Great food ! Great service !“

“We dined at Villaggio last night for the 2nd time. We called for a last minute reservation and were accommodated. Our server was Michael, he was wonderful. A true professional and master of his craft. Highly recommend this restaurant. Excellent food and service. Thank you!“

“Called as soon as place opened for the day to make a reservation for Monday evening. Hostess put me on hold, told me first available to sit is 7:45 pm tonight. Little late for kids to wait at home, so we had dinner elsewhere and came to sit at bar and have a night cap and desert. When we came in there close to six staff crowded behind the Maitre D's station. We asked if we could sit at the bar. They said no problem, then one of the staff followed behind us at a distance. Maybe to make sure we got to the bar? There was only one bartender and she was very busy. There were 11 people at the bar. So took awhile for bartender to get to us. My wife ordered a drink, I ask for a decaf expresso with a shot of Ameretto. Bartender gave me a great pour of almoretto in a snifter glass. The decaf regular coffee came few minutes later. I was hoping for expresso at a place like this but, whatever. The one bartender seemed to get into a quiet disagreement with a manager. We ordered the pumpkin cheesecake which was amazing. The building is amazing, deserts amazing also. But service, and staff planning is just not up to what I was hopeing for.“

“Dinner was fresh and delicious!“

“Was very pleased with the wait staff and management. They went out of their way to accommodate us after small complication. That is a rare occurrence in today's restaurants.“
