Allotment Bar & Restaurant - Manchester

Great food atmosphere and staff. And it’s dog friendly! thanks

This place is a gem on the northern heart of Manchester 😍😍

Had a great time, lovely food, friendly staff, nice surroundings X😁

Great little place for a nice drink and a quick bite to eat. Great service and friendly staff in a cosy atmosphere

Good food but had to wait a long time for service!

Food was amazing! Fairly small menu but with great range of choices, and everything we ate was delicious. Place was friendly and cosy, and we were given some good advice on our drinks choices. Would definitely go back!

Relaxed easy atmosphere. Perfect for our reunion of oldies. Have been a few times always enjoyable.

Great food well done guys merry Christmas xxx xx xx

Delicious food, fantastic atmosphere and refreshing drinks. I would definitely recommend!

Beautiful food and great atmosphere. Highly recommended. Definitely go again.

Great venue and good food. Was ready busy but really good atmosphere

Friendly staff and good service . Limited veggie options but nowt new there.

Excellent and attentive staff, lovely relaxed atmosphere. Great place to catch up with friends

Just brilliant. Good food , brilliant value, music right setting can hear but can talk. The whole experience brilluant

Slow service and absolutely freezing but good food and drinks

We went here on a Monday night, booked in advance. Whilst the place and the people were very nice, half the menu was unavailable. We were made aware Of most of the missing items before we ordered but another joined the list once we had ordered. Really disappointing considering it was the majority of the vegan options which were unavailable - so a very reduced choice.

Vegan food was lovely. Waitress was very very kind and attentive. Great atmosphere. Would defo go again x

Lovely evening, though a few things on the menu 'unavailable ' . Had to go to second choices but these were still good to be fair .

Beautiful place and plenty of fantastic vegan options. Perfect place to go for a nice dinner especially if you're in a group with some meat eaters and some vegans

Really enjoyed a selection of small plates. I've had worse food in much more pretentious restaurants. Nice atmosphere and lovely gin cocktails.

Lovely ambience And service good from the girl with blonde hair!

A pub restaurant that ran out of draft larger at 6.00 pm on a Saturday and was so full of loud lads drinking in the bar that it made for a very uncomfortable and loud atmosphere in the restaurant. They even ran out of bottles of Peroni! That was really poor. I give up on this venue. That's it. I've tried it twice now and both visits were unfortunately very questionable.

Relaxing atmosphere. Beautiful decor. Amazing and tasty food. Good service.

The food was fantastic and so was the gin, I would recommend.

Fantastic afternoon tea, reasonable price and plenty of food and great service!

Such a sour end to an otherwise good evening! Normally love the allotment, been there multiple times and the food/ drink has always been fantastic. But on this occasion, after i’d finished my meal, I noticed a mouse running about the restaurant. I immediately notified the manager and he proceeded to continue pouring drinks and did not react at all. After 20 minutes of still seeing the mouse zig zagging out of the tables and chairs, I decided to tell another member of staff, as the manager still had not done anything. I spotted a lady cleaning near the kitchen and asked if she could please do something to help the situation. She told me to speak to the same man I had already spoken to, I informed her that I had done this already and nothing had been done. She went to speak to him, but still nobody did anything. THE MOUSE WAS STILL THERE WHEN I LEFT (approx 45 mins after I first noticed it!) If this had been during my meal, I would have reacted very differently and possibly would have left due to vermin being in the restaurant whilst I was eating. Hugely incompetent staff! Very disappointed!

So many items off the menu - curry, crab, cauliflower, Bon bons, nuts, etc, favourite gin not available, beetroot fondant which was nothing of the kind, small plates all out first leaving the one diner who had a big plate meal with nothing to eat, printer not working so we had to pay a £121 bill without ever seeing it. Sort yourselves out, get your basic food ordering arrangements in place, come on - last night you were not good enough.

Absolutely fantastic food, atmosphere and staff. I really couldn’t fault our experience here it was wonderful x

Good atmosphere and friendly staff who were understanding when a member of our party was running late. The food was a little sporadic when arriving at the table with dishes taking for ever to arrive.

Great atmosphere and great food at reasonable prices. Will return

Friendly and helpful staff. Amazing range of Gins and lovely food.

Fabulous afternoon tea loved the picnic basket and all the sandwiches and cakes where amazing 😍😍😍

The food was fabulous, the staff were very attentive and the atmosphere was lovely

Friendly staff and good selection of food. Enjoyed the decor.

Great bar and restaurant with some good mid-week deals on. A little pricey if there aren't any deals, but a nice atmosphere and the food was very tasty and good portions.

Great gin bar! The bartender - also waiter - did a great job. He asked what kind of gin we liked and then made an excellent G&T with a similar profile but with a twist. We shared a number of small plates and all of them were very good. Lively crowd as well.

Food took too long and the restaurant was quiet too

Food good,service friendly and good,beer£5.60a pint too much,overall enjoyable thanks

Veggie and Vegan dishes were on the whole quite bland

Great food and service. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Hooray!

Great service, live music and food. Loved the cocktails. Amazing staff!

First time at The Allotment and we loved it. Really friendly, helpful staff who gave us some good ideas about the gin selection (we had a few, all good) . Food was excellent; great chips and glad we saved a bit of space for the desserts, which were ace. Already looking forward to the next visit.

Fabulous place, atmosphere, friendly staff and of course food, the gins are fab too! 👍😍🥂 As we are following a vegan diet this place is a gem well done and thank you xx 😀

This is great place with incredible nice people and good atmosphere. Love it.

Booked my table on Wednesday, arrived at 3pm..... took 20 minutes to see the menu, then 1 hour 20 until our food arrived. We did have an apology for the wait, but not what you expect when you pre book a table. Short staffed, bad management. Shame as a beautiful setting in the bar

Staff were lovely. Drinks were good. Food wasn't very hot and one of our party was very ill after eating the reuben sandwich.

Lovely atmosphere and beautiful food!!! We were sat by some very loud people which made it difficult to settle in but other than that it was lovely.

My friends and I eat at Allotment whenever we're in Manchester. The food is special, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is great.

The restaurant was so pretty and the picnic basket was such a quirky idea and the food was delicious - the fish butty was so tasty! However the service wasn’t great. When we ordered Prosecco, no one made us aware that there was an offer on sparkling wine as part of the picnic basket menu. I only saw this on the website later. We also never got offered any drinks, even though we should have also got this with our deal. I had to ask for these at the end of lunch Then we would have ordered more drinks but no one came near us to take an order so we ended up going somewhere else. Disappointing service when so much thought and effort has went into everything else.

Fabulous food, great gin and wonderful waitress. Helpful, informed and friendly. Very cool restaurant with lovely vibe. Loved everything about it.
