Reviews in Manchester

We had a fabulous Sunday lunch last weekend! Just the two of us, with lots of catching up to do, and everything was quite simply perfect! It was no surprise that the food was delicious (it always is at The Fat Loaf). We had the roast chicken and the roast lamb and everything was perfect! Had to have some cauliflower cheese on the side and it was exquisite! Our half bottle of Showdown was the perfect accompaniment. We couldn’t resist the deserts, so went for the chocolate pot (richly chocolatey but not too sweet) and the steamed ginger pudding (gorgeous!) Food aside, the service was the perfect blend of friendliness and professionalism. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more! If you haven’t tried a Fat Loaf Sunday roast yet, you’re missing a real treat!

Came last week for my boyfriends birthday and had a really good time. The woman who was our waitress was so lovely and couldn’t do more, she even sang happy birthday and surprised him with a cake. Thankyou again for making our night special.

Lovely cocktails ! Maybe fish options could be considered?

This is my sister’s favourite restaurant and what can I say, the girl has taste. Honestly some of the best food I’ve ever had and the staff are super friendly and good at what they do. The garlic bread is as big as a regular pizza and the pollo Al formaggio was to die for. End on profiteroles and thank me later. So good I spent two days in Manchester and ate here on both of them.

I had booked a meal for 4 at the Rising Moon on Sunday 29th October. Ordered 3 prawn cocktails, I have had this dish before but on the occasion it was not upto the standard of previous visits, The mains were a little off as the vegetables were not cooked enough the were almost raw, I am coeliac but I find that there is no alternative to the Yorkshire puddings and stuffing as I know these can be purchased from all the major supermarkets. The staff on this occasion were not at all helpful, they didn’t ask about allergies until i promptly informed them and at times were all chatting at the bar, when I asked about our mains being served the waitress was rather rude in her response. Apart from the above the rest of the meal was ok.
