    I really do love this place. On one of the busiest stretches where good food is hard to find this is the place to go. If you haven't already tried you'll need to add it to your bucket list. Full of Caribbean delights. Never disappointed. Meat always tender and full of flavour. Meals are well priced with big portions more than enough to fill a hungry human. In house drinks are amazing. Highly recommend the watermelon drink...unique and refreshing. They have good seating upstairs and downstairs. Lighting not too dark not too bright. Really nice decor give it a warm feeling. Will definitely vist again.

    Mama's Shack have such a varied range of delicious food we had to return. Pleasantly surprised with the beef ribs, oh absolutely melt in the mouth with just the right spices, you can tell it's been slow cooked for hours. We chose mash & gravy as a side and I'm so pleased the gravy was not bland and the mash was creamy. We also had steak which was perfectly cooked, accompanied by a nicely dressed salad. The Seafood Stew was amazing, especially the sauce it is divine. Churros were freshly made and you must try the sauce it's served with. Love it as I've only ever seen it being served with cinnamon sugar or chocolate. We had the beef Benedict in the past, we had to try as there's a shortage of decent halal brunch places in Manchester. The chef came to our table which was a first for me. The staff here are so pleasant they treat you like family.

    Unbelievably good Caribbean food. The jerk chicken was spiced and charred to perfection and the plantain so good you could eat a plate of them on their own. The mojito was unreal - best mocktail I’ve had - no sickly sugar syrup unlike other places. Can’t wait to visit again.

    We had dinner there today. Really cool place. Halal food, home food, soul food served there. I didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of the food. Very tasty and a little spicy! I had a curry goat with jollof rice and plantains. The prices are very affordable too, and the menu is straight forward. No complicated words!

    Food was unbelievably undercooked, tasted disgusting, was pink, and overpriced. It also took 1 hour for the pile of **** to arrive. Would even give 1 star if I could. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!!!!!

    This place was suggested to me as a place to take my friends when they came from London. I hadnt previously visited, but im glad i did, staff were polite, service was good and food excellent. They did run out of their best selling rib dish, but i opted for the jerk chicken which made up for it. Chicken was really tender, glazed nucely and that sauce was just amazing. My friends all loved their food and cant wait to go back there. Hopefully next time i go there will be some ribs to eat.

    A little gem on the curry mile. We stubbled across mamas shack while searching for something different to eat. The food was amazing. I had the ribs and i mean chunky ribs. The meat just fell off the bone and the sauce just topped it off.. i had a great convo with the chef/owner and the waitress. These guys know what they are doing and if you're looking for something different cooked perfectly then this is the place. We ended the night with churros which were delicious.We will be back very soon.

    Amazing food, drinks are delicious. Service is perfect. I have not had meat cooked as perfectly as they were here. And as well as being perfectly cooked, they were extremely flavoursome. Portion sizes are really good for the price, it's priced very well. Had a nice chat with the staff and owners who are all very friendly and welcoming. 5 stars from me!

πŸ‘πŸ‘ 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...
