Mannings Bar Restaurant

The service at this restaurant is fantastic and the food is incredibly delicious. I highly recommend dining here, you will not be disappointed. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Last night's dinner at this restaurant was below the usual standard. The food was bland and uninspired, with small portions served on cold plates. The prices for drinks were also extremely high.

A group of 9 of us had an amazing evening at this restaurant. We started with delicious cocktails and enjoyed beautifully presented and tasty food throughout the night. The kitchen even accommodated a request to tweak my dad's starter. The portion sizes were just right and we even managed to share some desserts. The staff were attentive and accommodating, especially towards my dad who is in a wheelchair. Adam, the manager, was fantastic and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. We were able to enjoy drinks at the bar before being seated, and there was no rush to move us along as our party arrived at different times. Overall, a great dining experience with a friendly and accessible atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back soon!

Terrible. Waitress clearly didn’t want to be there, rude and miserable. Food very larger portions of poor quality food . Sea food starter was not a described on menu, steak flavourless with a very cheep of the shelf sauce . Ice cream £3 per very small scoop . Wine poor . Restaurant not even a quarter full in the Friday night I can see why . Over priced, poor quality and terrible service. Don’t waste your money guys .

We lunched here before Christmas. Its a pleasant place to come, upbeat atmosphere, good service and snazzy decor. Food is averagely good, upmarket conveyor belt type food. I think its on the expensive side for what you get. My Mangalore curry at £18 was mainly sauce with two or three mouthfuls of a rather tasteless colley. I think the fish might have been added to a preprepared sauce so that it was not really marinated and the rice was rather dry. Perhaps popped in the microwave to heat it up? My partner's seasonal duck dish based was yummy but a verysmall/starter size at £14 . Drinks are far from cheap, £3.55 for half a pint of cheaper end lager, SanMiguel. There is a service charge of 7.5% which is supposedly optional. This is not really the case as it was automatically added, the bill was rung up on the till without a bill or receipt. I did not mind paying it as the service was good and the staff get it. However to say its optional and to then include it automatically is not really a choice. A friend of mine doing locum work at Treliske hospital as a consultant ate here recently and got a 10% reduction on their bill. I have given this some thought and have decided that as an old age pensioner Iwill not be eating here again as I have no wish to subsidize this largess. As I said the service is good, all the staff are friendly and courteous. Julia was very helpful on the phone when I rang beforehand regarding the new menu.
