Yard & Coop Manchester — Restaurant in Manchester

Amazing chicken feast!

Yard & Coop is impossible to top for delicious chicken in so many different variations. A burger is always my choice though! I had one of the specials for the 'Battle of the Bloggers' which was Ronnie's Reviews 'Carolina BBQ Burger'. It was superb. Fantastic flavours from the marinade and the succulent pulled beef. Nice crunch from the chicken coating and the slaw.

However, it was the Pulled Chicken BBQ Fries that stole the show. A massive portion of fresh fries plastered in ranch and pulled chicken. I loved every mouthful.

As always the service was spot on and the atmosphere is great for dining.

Previous visit: Just an incredibly dank tray of food! Every mouthful was amazing. The Messi Burger had fantastic flavours from the sauces but the chicken was coated with something special! It was so crispy too and plenty of it. I did have to send it back for the pulled beef to be added and I'm glad I didn't miss out because that was really tasty too. The BBQ Pulled Chicken loaded fries were almost as enjoyable as the burger. Again delicious sauces and plenty of meat. Some was a tad chewy but I suppose it just made the taste last longer! The place is cool and the staff are a delight. Couldn't recommend it enough and I'll certainly be back. I feel bad that I've never been before now!

Previous visit: Another great burger! Having had the best chicken burger of my life on my previous visit it was needless to say I was excited to get another fix. I ordered a 'Karen' burger with an extra thigh. It didn't match the lofty high standard set but it was still a damn enjoyable burger! Their chicken is perfectly crisp and juicy. I also had tots which are always a winner over regular fries. Sadly you can't swap them with your meal so I had to have side salad and pay separately for the tots. Fortunately I had a free side voucher to use though!

The place itself is always popular and the staff are great. Quite pricey but you'll struggle for a better chicken place...

well after months waiting for a email response ive realised i wont be getting my refund for being double charged for 1 terrible meal. where do i start. i came in to try this new place out after uni 6 months back. i wasnt busy or empty plenty of staff. i ordered my food and drink on the app and waited 15 mintues before going up to the bar to just buy a drink becuase i was fed up waiting and asked the bartender if my order was ok. she said oh sorry but our system is down atm so youll have to order with us again. so me and my friend did so and listened to her. we waited then 30 minutes for our food and original round of drinks to arrive. then the food was wrong but after 45 minutes of doing nothing i was starving. realised my meal was incorrect but decided does it matter i just need to eat. and wow they really got it wrong the food didnt just taste bad but the chicken was grey and the fries where undercooked and looked like they took a bath in whatever sauce mix that was. so i just left it and said can you take it back i dont want to eat anymore id like to just leave. i felt back about asking for a refund but i just wanted to run to mcdonalds to eat something quick easy and actually safe, i left asking the bartender i wont be double charged and she promised id be okay and appologised which was the only time the start seemed to care when ive alreadfy been inconvenienced. i new i wouldnt be coming back again but then a day later checked and yard and coop have double charged me for a horrific meal and experience. then you guys take it a step further and ignore all my emails asking for help after i send messages to all your email addresses. honestly its left such a bad taste in the mouth i was impressed at how inept customer care is here. i wont be surpised if you guys close soon. i dont expect to get a refund. not after seeing how shocking the buisness is. and id know as i work in hospitallity. and ive found there isnt just me thats had trouble at...

Where do I even begin with this restaurant? Some friends and I heard about their deal of a small free dish and were curious to give this restaurant a try. The advertisement didn’t have a start or end time anywhere, no matter where we looked. I even tried calling and no one picked up. We arrived after walking miles only to be told they were out of the dish only a few hours after opening.

Fine. Okay. It happens — a restaurant runs out of dishes, even if the dish is the most basic thing on the menu. We decided to give it a try anyways and pay full price, but weren’t even given an extra discount for the inconvenience because “It wasn’t fair to the others,” as if everyone else was a student who got turned away from a promotion after walking miles to get there and not even offered an extra small discount as an apology. Whatever, customer service has really gone down the drain but maybe the food would make up for it.

It didn’t. The food was subpar at best and for the price, I would’ve taken food poisoning at Dixie’s any other day. We paid 14 quid for the exact same thing we would’ve gotten with the promotion (I guess they didn’t run out) and still left hungry because the food was so mediocre.

Our plates were almost inseparable because there was grease all over the bottom, sticking them together. I lost my appetite after that. Dirty plates? Does that not violate health codes? We were not even offered an apology.

We left feeling irritated. Tip is automatically added to the bill with a quote along the lines of “Tip of 10% automatically added for service that will WOW you.” Who in their right mind would argue over a tip with someone who handles their food, regardless of how terrible the service was? Waitress was unhelpful, plates were dirty, and we didn’t even receive the promotion we came there for in the first place. We gave the place a chance,...
