    Although the food from Onda was very nice, the experience was nothing short of atrocious. There is no warning that when you spend your £30+ on a ticket for their relatively small tasting menu, you’ll be sat 2 metres away from a ‘party’ with the most obnoxiously loud speakers and music you’ll encounter. There’s also no wall, no divider, nothing. People next to us were literally sat in between people at this party stood talking and drinking. You can’t hear the person sat half a metre from you on the other side of the table. On top of this, we asked for some water 3 times, it never came. When we pressed the matter with the waitress we ordered with, she said ‘sorry I’m only on the floor I can’t get the water from the bar’. So, although the food was lovely, props to Onda, and generally the bar staff were also very polite, the ‘floor staff’, and atmosphere were genuinely terrible. I don’t think we’ll be coming back at that price.

    Now officially my favorite bar in Manchester. Staff are knowledgeable and excellent, the offerings are well chosen and beautifully presented. Next door to 2 or 3 famous Manchester venues it still has the allure of the secret place that you alone know about. Visit before the rest of the world catches on.

    Fantastic experience. So good we came here twice in one evening! The young girl with yellow / gold t shirt knew her beers and menu and was great at up selling. Fantastic falafel pitta salad and delicious fries. Great tasting Factotum beer and a Pilsner too! Good times :-)

    Wow. What amazing food, what a space. It is early days so the place is building up gently. This place is a foodies delight and a destination restaurant. Morocco meets Syria meets Spain meets the local garden farmer

    This is a low key hidden gem! It’s become my go to bar in the area, friendly staff, good beer selections.. chilled atmosphere, sometimes DJs and omg the Greek style pitta kebabs and falafels .. up there with what I’ve had in Athens. I wish them every success x

    Big open empty space. Might have been bad timing?! Lots of potential here but unfortunately it felt like I was at someones wake... I would still try again though as service was good and hopefully I'll get a nicer choice of ale.

    It's a shame it's always cold in there. 3 times I've been, 3 times freezing and very drafty. Cold atmosphere. Something is missing but I can't tell what... A bit overpriced too.

    Super cool space. Their selection of beers and wines are amazing. My kind of music too, and amazing staff. Immaculate vibes.

    In my opinion, The New Cross is absolutely everything you want from a night out. You feel great the moment you walk in the door. There's space to dance or have a sit down. And they serve an excellent Melon by the glass.

    Looked like quite a nice place, went in and saw they had Guinness on draught and asked for 2 pints. First red flag was the lack of Guinness glasses (yes I’m that snob) Second was the state of the pour, definitely didn’t double pour it Third was the bubbles… it shouldn’t look like ice cream on top and it tasted as bad as it looked. I’m aware this isn’t a Guinness pub but if you’re selling it you should at least know how to pour a pint. Genuinely took a couple of sips and left the rest. Worst Guinness in Manchester for sure.
