    Excellent service, very relaxed atmosphere and delicious food. We had the Sunday Roast which was plentiful and very tasty only complaint was it was only lukewarm which I find in a lot of restaurants these days. Saying that we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

    I am a big fan of Albert Shed of old great food and value Was really disappointed with service as they were understaffed. Starter was lovely but the Sunday roast was disappointing and they had missed the roast potatoes which was rectified. Generally value service ambience wasn’t the best

    On arrival we waited over 15 minutes to be ask re a drinks order and that’s only because we pulled a member of staff over. They brought a water jug but no glasses. When the starters arrived we had to wait and ask again for plates. We then waited 40 mins to get someone’s attention to get a second drinks order. When the girl brought them I was nearly wearing mine as I don’t think she appreciated me asking if someone could take a drinks order. The mains took over an hour to arrive. The steak was over done and cold. It was a dreadful experience and had we not have been pushed for time to get to a concert we would have left. It was extremely expensive not worth the money. We so much choice in Manchester I would strongly advise others to avoid here at all costs.

    This was our 4th visit every time has been excellent. There was a very slight delay in our dessert choice being delivered, I didn’t actually complain but they took 10% of the bill anyway. I would highly recommend these venue

    5 errors in a 3 course meal for 2 people…. Not the usual standard. We were told there was a problem with the ordering system so hopefully just a blip but will be a while before we return
