Reviews in Manchester

Visited the Rising Moon for the first time on Wednesday. Have been reccomended to come here a couple of times previous. Can safely say the food was lovely! Very fresh and could tell the lasagna was homeade. My only gripe is that I ordered a side salad as the side for a kids meal. Maybe it's me but as it was listed as a side on the kids menu, I would normally expect it would simply be lettuce, cucumber & tomatoes etc but instead it arrived with what looked like rocket, with bits of red onion and a vinagarette. I can understand that they have essentially provided a small version of the adults salad but personally it doesn't seem appropriate and my little one wouldn't touch any of the veggies because of it. Also the veg sticks are very thin almost like scraps rather than a chunky stick of veg as you'd expect for a child. Besides from this, which I suppose is all down to personal perspective, the food was fantastic, the place itself is lovely and atmospheric and the manager (tall dark haired young lad) who was running around was extremely politely and friendly to little one especially, even though they were having to deal with the waggon & horses kitchen being out of order so had more people to seat and bigger wait times. Will definitely be back! :)

Super food, attentive service and lovely atmosphere for our pre theatre me. Drinks are on the expensive side hence the vfm grade but overall hard to fault. We will be coming again.

Great food, lovely staff, nice atmosphere.

Visited for lunch, not my first time and wont be my last, absolutely best place for proper gastro pub grub around Hyde, if not Tameside. Yesterday was amazing as always, had lamb henry and the wife had braised steak with onion gravy, we both left suitably stuffed and very happy. Only gripe was I wanted to add a tip to my bill, but couldn't add it to card payment and very rarely carry cash!

Nothing I can complain. Lamb Bunny Chow absolutely beautiful, carrot salad coming with os is really refreshing. 10/10, definitely will come again.

Lovely restaurant and good parking. Friendly , professional staff and delicious food! Excellent!

A gem in the middle of Manchester. The food is great . All the starters in the platter were excellent and the Pelmeni with broth really hearty. The service is friendly and informal, but professional and the atmosphere lovely. They also have a remarkable wine list which is pricy but not unreasonable.

Lovely atmosphere, very relax the food is great and it is just so friendly, I go regular and met up with cousin we had a lovely evening and even got promised a free pudding when I return. Lovely place to eat and meet,

We love it here - even my 8 months old is a huge fan and enjoys to try most of the things

We had a family meal ( 7 people) for my Birthday on Thursday 26th January. On arrival we were immediately seated at our table. We were able to order drinks quickly . All the food served was excellent. We had one vegan diner who was more than happy with their order plus the chefs added a couple of unexpected extras on the plate which went down very well. The staff and service were also excellent. A thoroughly enjoyable experience for all .

Lovely dog friendly pub, food and service was excellent, will definitely be returning.

Our Sunday lunch last week was perfect - as always. The Fat Loaf is definitely the best restaurant in the area.

We had a great time. Actually we visited the Drop twice within the week! Yes, it’s that good! Thank you for the scrumptious Caribbean food. Keep it up

Amazing! Fantastic food and fantastic service. And massive servings, one meal is sufficient for two to share.

Food was brilliant and couldn’t fault it. The portions were really good sizes and everything was really tasty. It’s also really good value for money too

Amazing food. Great service and pleasant atmosphere. We have already booked to go back again next month.

Another fabulous meal at The Rising Moon. I had the braising steak which was delicious & my husband had chicken with garlic, cream & mushroom sauce which was lovely. The vegetables were cooked perfect, still crunchy & tasty & the chips were golden & crispy. Every time we go to the Moon the food just gets better & better .

I love this place and the staff are brilliant! Really friendly and make you feel so welcome. My family come over from Matlock to lunch here as they love it too. Adele is fab as well as her team. Highly recommend
