Very good food a most enjoyable evening and my calzone pizza was really good

Really nice food good service

Wonderful meal for my son's 15th birthday

We recently made our first visit to L’Aquila and enjoyed a wonderful meal . The service by Bianca was professional,helpful and helped make our experience the more enjoyable. We will be going again in the near future.

The food is always hot and fresh. Portion sizes are good value for money even on the early bird choice. Excellent choices

Yes nice couple of hours. Very pleased with the meal and the attention from the staff. Been many times before- lovely venue

We had a party of 31 celebrating an 80th birthday, food was great, service was excellent and everyone enjoyed it. Thank you.

Nice atmosphere and service. This is my local and I've noticed it never smells like stale beer or a gent's toilet unlike Hillary Step next door or the otherwise fantastic Carlton Club down the road: here, they offer interesting spirit combinations on request and, as a cider drinker myself, there's usually an option for me. The crowd is usually friendly without undesirable come ons. While it feels very LGBT friendly, I have met both anti and pro trans folk here, but such is life. Spacious seating and interesting decor with two outdoor options, one directly in the sunlight until evening until the spring and summer late evenings, the other providing cover from the rain for smokers or outdoor loners.

Went for brunch last Monday, excellent food lovely staff It's a credit to Andy how he's transformed the place

We ate here for the first time at the weekend and we weren’t disappointed. It’s a lovely restaurant with plenty of staff who are attentive without being overbearing. The food is delicious, my husband’s fillet was apparently one of the best he’s had. Good wine selection too as well as excellent cocktails. We will definitely be returning.

Nice food , nice staff

Went on Bank Holiday, a bit too noisy and busy for us, but to be expected. Adult food was good in the end, good portion size and tasty. Service wasn't the quickest though and our order was originally brought out wrong, more worryingly for our daughter's allergies. The restaurant apologised and quickly fixed the issues with adult order, and replaced my daughter's with what we ordered for her, but her chicken was very very dry, she left most if it. We ordered the alternative options for children with allergies dessert, but were then told they were all out after we'd already placed the order, they offered my daughter strawberries instead which she enjoyed. okay overall experience, but won't be rushing back. We've had much better experiences and overall food quality elsewhere.

Great service from the minute we stepped through the door. I lovely member of the bar staff team came and met us and took us to our table. She supplied us with menus then asked us what we'd like to drink. We all ordered Sunday roast, there was no veggie option but they were more than happy to put a roast together without the meat, an extra Yorkshire pudding along with extra potato's and veg. We followed this with apple crumbles all round which we all thoroughly enjoyed. The food was absolutely amazing along with great service. We'll be back again soon. Thanks for a great lunch.

I've started coming here regularly now when I work in our Manchester office. The food and atmosphere are perfect and the combination of a cafe and bookstore is brilliant. They even held the last maple flapjack for me and wrapped it to take away so I could catch my train on time - above and beyond.

It was really nice in all areas food fabulous

Excellent service excellent food will definitely be back been several times already well worth a visit 100%.

Always excellent food and service everytime we come. One of my favourite places to eat. Great value for money x

Great pub, great atmosphere. I and my party all had the Sunday roast. We all agreed that it was delicious. Food is served quickly by efficient and friendly staff.
