The Angel Pub Mcr — Restaurant in Manchester

AWFUL! We had the Christmas menu - pate served with 2 small pieces of bread. I asked politely if we could have more bread and the waitress said she would check?? She did bring some more - one extra piece each for the four of us. Onto mains - mine was beef with potato ad my friend had duck - and more duck! I enquired about vegetables only for the waiter to say I had veg - pointing to my potato! I asked if we could have a side serving of vegetables only for him to come back and say there was no extra veg - they only had enough for the Christmas menu, in desperation we asked about salad but no, they didn't have that either! - so my beef came served with potato ( fine) a soggy splodge of spinach and a couple of tiny mushrooms as garnish. My friend basically had a plate of duck - one sliver of onion and another soggy splodge of spinach! How ridiculous! What restaurant doesn't serve vegetables? Then onto dessert - orange chocolate mousse in a cold glass served on a red hot plate!! Because they put the plates on the hot plate to serve the desserts!!? And my poor friend? Burnt apple tart! DON'T BOTHER - the fact it is sited in the middle of a building site doesn't add...

I've walked past this place many times and never felt compelled to go in . And till now .and the first thing you notice is how old this pub really is, why all around it is changing with sky high apartment , new offices , this pub as stood the test of time .

The toilets are dark walls covered in stickers & graffiti , and the fan is thick with dust , but all this said, you are greeted by friendly bar staff. And the people that go in are happy to chat to anyone who goes in . And as the day went on, it was getting busier by the minute, but good weather and a nice outdoor space helped . You will get a warm welcome in here . Will I go in again, I think so .it's doing its own thing and not trying to keep up with anyone else, so good on them . The drinks are good .and the lad & the new trainee bar member was...

I his pub is right on the edge of Manchester city centre, not far from both the Northern Quarter and Victoria station.

From the outside it looks quite plain, but inside it has a quirky old fashioned feel to it, what with the old wooden type fixtures and fittings and the fact it's really quite small.

It does seem a little unloved although that's not to say it's actually dirty - it just looks like it needs a spruce up.

The drinks on sale are pretty much most of the usual suspects but will a few odd additions like their own cider (7%...🤯). The spirits range again, no surprise, you're bound to find a drink.

There is a beer garden and in the afternoon when we was in there you can catch the sun in a very pleasant way until late, also I do have to say it very much looks like an overgrown car park and the benches are a wee bit wobbly, but having said that - I had a...
