    We couldn't book a table and just walked in. It was busy but the staff managed to find us a table. Friendly and informative staff asking us whether we would like to order by phone or table service. As we had a voucher, we had to order via table service. We ordered Hot Honey Mustard Chicken Wings (£6.50) and The Dirty Bird (£13.50) to share. Food came at a reasonable time and we were happy with the portion as it did fill us up. Lovely crispy chicken in both dishes and flavoursome from the variety of sauces. The atmosphere is chill-out. A good place for gatherings with friends and families as children were provided an activity pack. Would come back again.

    First place visited in Manchester. We got here because everything else on our radar was closed already. The place is really cook and fun! Great atmosphere and a really playful environment around. Great music selection, helpful staff and a really cool feel to it. We had food.. I had the buffalo burger and my missus had some chicken on top of mac and cheese. I was not impressed with my choice as overall it was pretty blend. The other dish was though pretty poor. The combination of chicken, pasta, cheese and fries all at once really didn’t seem to follow a logic. Not the worse anyways.. everything else compensated really well and ended up walking out pretty satisfied regardless of the £45 spent for a beer a coke and 2 dishes..

    Great food and atmosphere! We ordered burgers, wings, mac n’ cheese and fries and they were amazing! The milk shakes were also very nice. Do not accept American Express.

    WOW 🍗 We spotted this place from across the road at Ad Hoc Wines and decided to come here after our wines. Best chicken wings I've ever tried, so so yum and fluffy. Buttermilk is the way forward! The restaurant is very big, spacious with different areas, booths, tables outside, quirky decoration, even an arcade machine. Friendly service and a fun atmosphere 😎

    Went down here for lunch and had some absolutely delicious fried chicken. Have to recommend the tenders, buffalo sauce, blue cheese sauce, onion rings and Nutella milkshake. Waffles were crispy and fluffy at the same time. Service was great!! Would come again 😊

    The chicken is yummy👍🏻 I’ve been here two times now. The first time was with a group for dinner and drinks and we had a great time. The chicken is perfectly cooked is delicious 🤤 You can sit outside as well if it’s sunny 🌞

    Speedy and friendly service. The salt and pepper fries really were the highlight, definitely worth the upgrade! Chicken was also nice, it could’ve used a bit more seasoning in my opinion but the meal as a whole was very good overall.

    Good quality food. On the pricey side but it's worth it. Staff are extremely welcoming and the service is very good. We return every time we come to Manc 🤝 Recommend: Karen burger, Mac n cheese, Gravy

    Went for a bit of Lunch. Quirky atmosphere and the food is Junk with a capital J but thats what you need on a rainy afternoon in Manchester. We waddled out very satisfied. Our waitress 'Liv' was an absolute diamond! Thanks again for lovely service and sorting out our bill after a minor issue, Keep up the amazing work!

    Amazing food and great selection, staff were great, definitely a must if you are in town

  • 3/5 Joyce H. 8 months ago on Google
    Chicken comes off-the-bone here which sadly takes away from the enjoyment. My obsession with fried chicken led me to Yard & Coop where I ordered the chicken and waffles. I think the dish relies on the delicious honey butter and syrup to give the chicken more oomph. While it was crispy, it felt somewhat lacking. And the waffles could have been softer in the middle. Not enough chicken pieces either for roughly £15. It's a fast-paced restaurant and we were lucky to get a table but I won't be a repeat customer.

    Honestly the best chicken burger I’ve had ever! Customer service was 10/10 with friendly staff. Decoration was quirky and unique. A must in Manchester.

    Great food, exceptional service and lovely atmosphere. The chicken kebab was delicious chicken was nicely season and cooked brilliantly kebab had a nice warmth to it with a great slaw and sauce.

    What a friendly place, and the food absolutely delivers! Juicy spicy chicken burgers, crunchy slaw and a great choice of drinks. Definitely a place to try!!

    Love the atmosphere here for hanging arround with friends.. i order Fried Chicken Plate - full Chicken Breast with bee knees Hot Honey Sauce and Dirty Fries.. the food was great..

  • 5/5 zeynep c. 9 months ago on Google
    The food was super tasty. The chicken is halal so there are many options to choose from. The music inside was a bit loud but there are places to sit outside as well.

  • 4/5 Vicky J. 9 months ago on Google
    Expectations were high for this place and they didn't really meet them... Seitan 'chicken' thighs were ok but was expecting more flavour. Sauces didn't have enough sweetness and frickles I think needed a bit more patting down before battering as the batter just didn't stay on the pickles. Peach ice tea was also way too sweet. However service and atmosphere was great. Not sure I would recommend.

  • 5/5 Louie 11 months ago on Google
    The food is very nice. I particularly recommend the salt and pepper. Quick and easy food, nice atmosphere, would visit again.

    Inside is super busy and loud during the weekend. You could barely listen well to what others talking about. That’s why everybody seems yelling at each other which just makes the whole situation even worse 😅We waited for a long time until we realized they forgot our orders. Well quite understandably, cause we see how busy the staffs are…..The waitress is friendly and gave us a free drink for the delay of the food (we’ve waited almost an hour) The chicken finally came and it tastes alright. I wouldn’t complain. Still left 5 stars review just for the sake of their service. Shout out to all the waiters I think they all deserve a raise 😀

    Place fills up rather quickly within an hour of open so make a reservation if you’re coming in a large group. Staff are really helpful. Burgers are freshly made I’m sure but I wish my chicken patty and fries were just a little hotter. They tasted great though. Large indoor seating area and comfortable inside when it’s rainy and cold.

  • 1/5 Tasneem E. 9 months ago on Google
    Had a terrible experience here. They added a tip to my bill upfront before serving, which felt pushy. I asked them to remove the tip from my bill, they then gave us cups that were disgusting, and the fries were stale and cold. The food didn’t even make up for it. Overall, the restaurant lacks professionalism and cleanliness. I wouldn't recommend it.

  • 5/5 Beth B. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolute incredible. The atmosphere was buzzing on a Saturday afternoon, food and drinks came out at reasonable times, the staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. The Korean nugs were something else, cannot recommend highly enough. I would suggest to book as it was fully booked all day and they had to turn people away.

    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! 2nd 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 (like most places...) 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 in Manchester.

    2nd visit here and great food. We got the buff daddy burger, honey butter waffle with sides of tenders and mac n cheese. Left stuffed and was concerned I wouldn’t be but all good 🤣 Only small piece of feedback is I didn’t order a burger because they say it’s a chicken thigh with xxx but the buff daddy had 2 thighs in it. Had I known burgers come with 2 thighs as standard I’d have got that but the waffle was amazing anyway. Also, the syrup served with the waffle was stone cold so it didn’t help the butter melt 😒

👍👍 I was craving curry during my stay in Manchester. And Google suggested this place to me. It's in the centre, almost 6 minutes away from my hotel. The interior design is very hip and it has a great vibe. The music that is being played is modern. The curry was amazing. And the prices were perfect for...
