    Good halal food! The best waffle batter you can get. Milkshakes taste better than five guys. The beef burger taste 100% similar to cheeseburger from McD Malaysia

    Had to wait 34 minutes for one burger, just one! No drink, no fries and still took them 34 minutes. Of course, the £8 burger is totally worth it… Psych! It’s the same size as the £2 ones they have at McDonald’s. Disgusting service, never again. Spend you hard earned money elsewhere.

    Place was an absolute mess, food took 45mins and they never brought it out, I had to go back up and ask where my order was , it was sitting there not touched and cold. Avoid at all costs the place is an absolute shambles.

    Went to the Archie's shop in and ordered a meal + lotus milkshake. Didn't receive the milkshake in the order and £6 pounds down the drain :( was looking forward to trying the milkshake - Would not recommend

    First of all the floor is like an ice rink, incredibly slippy. The interior decor is minging, the food isn't great and the music is too loud. It's not exactly cheap either.

    I had an amazing experience here today. Not only the decoration was stunning but the food was absolutely delicious. I came from London where Archie’s isn’t there so to have it for the first time and really enjoy it was something 👌 there was also really great service and I want to give a special shout out to Amin, Rafat and Tanzeel who made my time at Archie’s more memorable and welcoming 🥰

    I was very excited to dine in Archie’s for the first time, however we were greeted with long queues and wait times, the cheesy fries tasted like artificial cheese, the cola was flat and the wrap was nothing special. Very overrated. If I went again, I’d order something different in hope for a better experience.

    Burgers were alright nothing special as i’ve had better, the portions don't match the prices hence i had to buy 2 burgers also found hair in my food which was really off putting! However the manager did give me a refund on the curly fries.

    We went there just after opening at 12 o'clock and were the first people to order. Waited quite a long time for the order to be ready, and a lot of people has came in the mean time. It's such a busy place. But even though we waited long, it was worth it. Great burger and chips, mac and cheese bites definitely worth trying! And big plus that all Archie's are serving halal meat! Delicious and fair prices, definitely recommend.

    Service was slower than time itself. Ordered a box of chicken and waited 20 minutes. Most expensive 20 minutes I've ever had. As a note, they hate the front door being left open. They were more bothered about telling people to shut it than preparing food. Attached a picture and no, I hadn't been run over, the food was prepped and served that way.

    The burgers were great, the milkshakes were really nice but I feel like the Oreo and Strawberry one didn't have many oreos in as it just tasted of Strawberry, and the hot cheese fries were disappointing. We've had the cheese fries at Archies in the past and like them so ordered this time but there was only a little bit of the cheese sauce on.

    Oh they were great, I order their plain tenders but it was still a little spicy for my 8yrs daughter, the server was very courteous to us he exchanged the tenders and wiped up some for her with a lot less seasoning on it so it wouldn’t be spicy for her. That’s going above and beyond for your customer. So impressed and pleased

    This is the first time i came here. Lovely vibes and atmosphere. The burgers so delicious!! I got to take nice photos too 😍

  • 3/5 Simon M. 6 months ago on Google
    Shockingly overpriced for a very average experience. Service is pretty slow, staff seem to avoid people. The place itself is like an extra gaudy McDonald's. The food is quite average but was served hot. Fire the price, there are better choices out there. It didn't seem at all accessible for wheelchairs

  • 1/5 Sylvia 7 months ago on Google
    Thank you so much Archie's! It was the most memorable experience of the year! I waited a long time, with great expectation, and finally got a greasy, squishy cheese fry, and a ridiculously sour BBQ tender. I was shocked at the £9.80 wasted and the unbearably bad food but I still had to swallow for the sake of those expensive food. Thank you for making me taste the most awful food for the first time in my life.

    First visit and really enjoyed the Waffle we got it was so good! Service was great and even our waffle came with a smile.

  • 5/5 Stuart W. 6 months ago on Google
    It wasn't the cheapest burger I've ever eaten, but I must say it was made to order quickly and tasted great! Crinkle chips were the best too! Would come again.

  • 5/5 Ellie P. 4 months ago on Google
    Best milkshakes ever Been coming here since it was a tiny story. I got my favourite Oreolicous and then the waffle is biscoff. Service was a little slow howeve the food and milkshake made up for it.

  • 5/5 Jessica O. 8 months ago on Google
    This is a lovely restaurant. Very affordable. It is located not far from my church. I first visited this restaurant with some friends from church and I really enjoyed the experience. Please feel free to visit this restaurant and I can assure you that you will never regret it.

    Grandaughter loved it , she never stopped talking about it , was like going in barbie land she said , all pink

  • 5/5 saniya p. 8 months ago on Google
    Nice place to hang out... We ordered a burger and two shakes. The shakes were not that great as I've had better from other places. I prefer Rocco's over Archies, their quality is superb. But ofcourse Archies provides a very unique ambience. If you love to click lots of pictures and make reels then Archies is the place for you to hang out and chill.

  • 1/5 Why Q. 10 months ago on Google
    The food was horrible. The beef and chicken burgers we ordered were dry and stale. The milkshake was runny and tasted like milky water. Trust me when I say it was the worst I’ve had in my entire life. The manager was so rude and told us to leave because they were closing even though they agreed to let us eat in 1:30hrs ago when we ordered. Yes 1hr 30 mins to eat in. She became hostile and literally stared us down from afar whilst we was eating. Archie’s used to be up there but the decline has been crazy. Would not recommend eating there even to my worst enemy. Ps: we travelled over an hour to go try their food and that’s the service and quality we got. Shocking.

    It is better than your average high street multi food fast food place. The service can be a bit patchy though. I would go here again.

  • 5/5 Yaz B. 1 year ago on Google
    Enjoyed the food. Smash burger was probably one of the best ive tasted so far. The kiosks at the front to order food were really good. Overall a good spot for a much 👌

  • 5/5 Manc M. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely love this place! Ate there twice yesterday! The falafel wrap & chicken burger was to die for! Thr flavours! The flavours! ❤️ The place is extremely clean & the quality of food is second to none. The only downside was the wait. Please extend this chain! 🙏🏻

  • 4/5 Hiu Ching K. 10 months ago on Google
    Came for the decorations downstairs. Food taste as good as they were in other locations. I ate downstairs and after 10mins or so I find the lighting and decorations too pink for me. I didn’t know bright pinks can hurt my eyes like that. But it is pretty and cute, suitable for photo taking and definitely for pink lovers only!

  • 1/5 Aneesah K. 1 year ago on Google
    the food is lovely however i just walked in and the lady at the front w reddish hair making milkshakes was not wearing gloves she constantly itched her hair and armpits and didn’t wash them before making the milkshakes the hygiene of this place really lets them down

  • 5/5 Faisal J. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited this place on a Sunday afternoon. Very busy but for obvious reasons. The burgers were amazing (we had the Tornado) and this is something we don't get where I'm from (Birmingham) so a great treat. The star for me was the 'oreo and banana' milkshake. The combination was surprisingly delicious! Parking is hard to find here.

  • 4/5 Eleanor L. 1 year ago on Google
    Burgers are amazing, especially the hot chick! I cannot stop buying them it’s like they’re addictive. However, in the past few months prices have increased from £6.90 to £8.20+ online! Considering the locations students are most likely frequent buyers and the new prices are too much. This is now the reason I’m broke. Update - went to a different location down the road and ordered a burger that I used to love but they took off the menu until recently. Went in store and not only had to wait 40+ minutes (not exactly FAST food) but they gave me the wrong burger! Not only was it not the one that I ordered but it was a burger that wasn’t even on the menu?? It had breaded chicken with bacon (which I don’t eat) and these strange hard crunchy bits which were awful… Kind of lowered my opinion not going to lie so I took a star off from my last review and I hope this was just a one time thing.

  • 5/5 TequilaFever 2 years ago on Google
    Quick and friendly service but enough of the standard review rubbish.. WHAT A BURGER. I went for the Chicken Cheetos burger and who knew what an amazing combination it would be! The Chips were fantastic too. But the best thing, despite walking 10 minutes with the food and not eating it (we resisted the temptation) we arrived home and it was still boiling hot! A 100% revisit when back in Manchester

  • 4/5 Chanda B. 2 years ago on Google
    The milkshake I had was so thick and was really delicious! The chips were also extremely nice, but in terms of ordering, we didn't even know where to stand and it took quite a while to get our order taken. After we ordered though, the wait wasn't too long. The place itself was tidy, but could have been tidier.

    Love the work these guys do feeding local wildlife and adding a splash of colour to the drab, urban landscape. Seems like everywhere you look around town there's a bit of bright pink livening things up.

  • 1/5 Ahmed A. 2 years ago on Google
    Look at the burger shape . Fully squashed. Fries was freezing cold and shake was on another level. And waiting time was 50 minutes. If you want to waste your time and food . Just go there.
