Well, I am super confuddled that none of you lovely Yelpers have reviewed this take-away yet! It's…read morethe bee's knees, I can tell you! I am lucky enough to work just across the road from this delightful establishment and spend my hard-earned tips in there (far too) regularly. Their food is preposterously tasty; it's all freshly made and prepared as you order, they have a great selection of curries, pizzas, burgers, and sides, and if you step through their door more than once (though I have found myself battling with that door on occasion, it is quite the cantankerous entrance) they great you with a friendly smile and "hello again!" as though you've been eating there for years. Being a vegetarian I can only vouch for their veggie options, but they are tasty enough to have me going back there almost every other shift. As a self-confessed massive fan of chips and cheese, I find myself longing for Chilli's version more than any other. There is nothing spectacularly different about the chips or the cheese (they are just standard fries with mozzarella from what I can work out), but they are damn tasty. On a particularly lazy week recently where I simply could not be bothered to prepare a big one-pot dinner to take to work for each shift, I think I may have consumed Chilli's cheesy chips three times.... Considering I'm not normally a big take-away girl, that's good work, Chilli's! My carnivorous colleagues wax lyrical about the karahis and kebabs on offer for those who partake in meat-eating and I honest to goodness cannot remember the last shift when at least one person didn't look naughtily at the rest of us and ask the fateful question that causes us all to reach deep into our pockets: "Does anyone want anything from Chilli's?!". As if feeding us poor and hungry bar staff on our arduous club night shifts week in, week out wasn't enough reason for me to be more than a little bit in love with this place, the portions and prices are fantastic. The karahis are all priced between £4.90 and £5.50 and are huge! The pizzas are the tastiest I've had from anywhere, beating the living tastebuds out of Pizza Hut and Dominos, and as you may have picked up, I am quite the fan of their cheesy chips. They also have fabulous meal deals on offer at all times, including my personal favourite; they serve a personal pizza (7") with two toppings of your choice (pineapple and jalapeños tends to be my go-to combo) with chips and your choice of drink for £3.50. That winning taste-fest has seen me through many a long and difficult sold-out club night. I would love to give this haven of naughty foods a five star review but I have never had anything delivered from them, what with work being in such close proximity, so I am unsure if the impeccable service I am accustomed to transfers to this aspect of their business and I have unfortunately seen some not-so-positive reviews of their delivery on the tinterwebs. Although having said that, these negative reviews are not the majority by any means. As far as my experience goes, check Chilli's the hell out if you are on a night out in the Northern Quarter and get a bit peckish. They are open 7 days a week. Go on, treat yourself. But be warned, you may form a similar addiction to that of my colleagues and I. It's just so tasty!!

Born from the genius and success of The Biospheric Project, 78 Steps is just around the corner…read more(well, 78 steps away) from the urban farming project which has taken Salford and Manchester by storm. The idea behind the shop is local food on a micro-scale, bringing the community in the area locally grown, ethically sourced and high quality produce. Stocking fresh fruit, veg & eggs from local farms, bread from the Barbakan deli in Chortlon and eco-friendly cupboard fillers from companies like Suma and Ecover, 78 Steps has a great range of British products, championing fresh local items and seasonal produce. As well at the shop itself, 78 Steps offer a Wholebox service, delivering fresh food to local people on a regular basis. Boxes start at as little as £5 and contain at least eight varieties of fruit and vegetables, making healthy eating cheap and accessible. Some of the fruits and vegetables have been grown at the Biospheric Project itself - just 78 steps away - making this a truly carbon efficient enterprise.

There are a few tables and chairs on the inside and out, so you can choose to eat it. They serve some dim sum, rice and noodle dishes but the highlight is really in the special dishes, which you wouldn't normally find in a standard Chinese. I stopped by here at around 9:30pm on Friday 27th June and ordered a won ton noodles to go. Unfortunately, the won tons were really small, smaller than they used to be, and the skin was coming apart from the won ton. I also got food poisoning from eating this, so I won't be coming back now. This is a shame, as it was really good when it opened. I especially liked their soup noodle dishes and they used to do bitter melon with ribs :(

The Karma team prepare a daily changing menu of authentic home-style Indian food which is delivered to your desk in a specially insulated tiffin. The meal consists of rice and chapati, a veg dish and dhal and a choice of meat of vegetarian main. And the food is good. Really good. So good in fact that it made me think of my Mum. Plus it's perfectly portioned so you're satisfied without the post-lunch slump. How much? A fiver. Yes - a fiver! For a proper plateful. You can barely pick up a coffee and croissant for that around here. Get some karma in your life.

Situated inside the Premier shop on New Bailey Street, you wouldn't expect to find this little pie…read morestand, serving up some great pastry, potato & gravy combinations. Only a few moments from work, we have had Friday lunches from Pie Cottage a number of times - we ring in the morning, put the order in (a large order, of about 20-25) and then collect circa 1pm. The food reaches our kitchen hot and fresh, each box marked with the flavour of pie and either mash in the box or in a large container for us to dish out. I've had meat & potato and pork & chorizo, which were both tasty; the pastry is sturdy - you'd easily be able to pick it up if you wanted to eat on the go - and filling well distributed. Mash isn't my favourite but it's a nice texture, and I believe they only serve up meat gravy. Due to the small and indepdent nature of Pie Cottage, we often end up taking everything they have, so I would recommend avoiding if it's our Friday lunch! £3 pie & mash or jacket potato with filling 10-4 Monday to Friday.

In typical "eyes bigger than our stomachs" style, we ordered quesadillas, nachos, burritos and chips. They were all excellent. And so filling. He burrito is a meal in itself.
