Standard tiki decor but a lot less packed than the ones in town. I had a chocolate raspberry martini. Usually when you get drinks that are a combination of chocolate and alcohol, there is more chocolate than alcohol , eg a Baileys hot chocolate. Don't get me wrong, I like, nay love, that but it was nice to have the balance the other way round. My friend said it looked like chocolate soup. I put up a pic so you can make your own mind up. Whatever it looked like, it was a very very nice drink and I could happily drink these all the time. At £7 it was town prices but it was worth it. My friends had other cocktails which they loved. Maybe next time I will try something different. Definitely worth a visit when in Altrincham.

The passion fruit daiquiri was very tangy, so the bar staff reluctantly remade it for me; it was marginally better the second time round. Apparently the mixture has recently been changed.

This Slug & Lettuce is with out a doubt one of the worst locations I have ever been too in my life. Over priced, god awful food and furtantiure that breaks when you sit on it (oh yes, more about that in a second). Then, this is the place for you. We went on Monday evening. half the beers on tap were off, no ales on tap and the house red wine was bloody awful! The price was 15 pounds for a pint of lager, a pint of cider and a SMALL house red. I didn't realise I took a 'transporter' to London when I walked through your doors! Then we went to sit down, as both me and my father sat down, the chairs broke, sending us flying backwards with our drinks all over us. No refund offered and no new drinks served. Someone should do some customer service improvements!!!

The House is an outstanding restaurant and bar in a prime location in idyllic Goose Green in…read moreAltrincham. If you're looking to wine and dine a loved one or impress a new date, then you can't really go wrong here. Head chef and owner Adam Wilde has created an attractive warm bistro feel in this family run establishment, with dimmed lighting, booth seating and laid back sounds. The mix of French and English dishes change regularly and are surprisingly affordable. Classic dishes like Moules Mariniere, Pork fillet Stroganoff and Slow braised lamb knuckle fall between £9 and £13 and the well put together wine list starts at just £12.90. After a fabulous dinner, you don't have to move very far for entertainment on the weekends. That's provided by the House bar, where live acts play until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays whilst you sip your belgian beer, champagnes or cocktail.

The mushroom on toast and chicken lollipops stood out as the best! But the other small plates were not far behind! For the main I had chef's sushi platter - which I highly recommend! The sushi is prepared fresh and it was all delicious, probably the best sushi I've had in England! The menu has a wide selected range of sushi options. Every item of food we ordered was delicious! Drinks: I only ordered a soft drink, but the restaurant is also a bar which serves plenty of drinks. Atmosphere: The decor of the place is beautiful and fitted the relaxed ambience. We went for dinner quite late, when the restaurant slowly shifts towards a bar. Service: The service from all the members of staff was brilliant. The only downside was we had a very long wait between our starters and main (45 mins). Price: It is on the upper end but still very reasonable for the quality of food and the service you receive. Victors is slowly becoming one of my favourite places to eat in Manchester / Altrincham.

Everything was "yes, we can do that." Went on a Sunday afternoon with kids and they loved it. Buffalo sauce is great (had on on the chicken burger, off menu). Calamari is great. Would appear to be a very good place for grown-ups in the evening. Simple, elegant décor. Very tasteful and hip without being gauche. One television with the football on, perfect balance to be able to watch the game without being in a rambunctious pub/sports bar. My guess is it was the proprietor who took care of us for the first half of our meal and my wife said, "mmmm, he's handsome, too." That I could have done without but, overall, 7 out of 5 and we will be back regularly.

This meant that our dining experience wasn't as relaxed as it could have been. The service was very friendly and attentive and the menu looked good. I ordered the mushrooms to start which were presented well but were a little tasteless my husband liked his goat cheese tarts but felt it would have been nice if they'd come with chutney. The fish and chips were a hit for main but my sea bass was rather dry and lacked flavour. The dessert we shared toffee and pecan cheesecake was the best course of the night. Overall an average experience. Think it might be best to try this place at a quieter time in the week.

So when a good friend (and fellow beer fiend) from 'darn sarth' came up for a weekend visit I knew we had to head to Alty first. We got there early afternoon on a Saturday and quickly saw that we'd be the first people in there, not that we let that stopped us, it just meant we got the best seats by the open fires. The beer list is huge, sized more like a phone book (they have 250 bottled beers and more than a dozen on draught). So unless you really know your beers, you could feel somewhat overwhelmed at first. (Personal recommendation for Timmermans Peche). The staff are on hand to give you suggestions if you need. With spacious seating over two levels, it's a lovely place to sample some lesser-heard-of beers and watch the world go by.

Well they do say every day's a school day…read more We learned something we didn't know here; we both simultaneously thought that the milk in our coffees had turned (flat white & cappuccino £3 each) but the manager advises it's the complex quality of the exceptional coffee used, so next time it'll be espressos as milk doesn't add sweetness here and I avoid sugar. The manager offered to make fresh coffees and kindly explained about the quality of their coffee, supplied by Dark Woods Coffee and suggested this coffee ain't Costa - I do agree. My new coffee tasted identical to the original but my wife thought hers less 'sour'. Dark Woods provide the coffee and hand roast their beans on a 1950's Probat drum roaster. They are top notch on the environmental and social impact and certified B Corp - 5 green stars here. When tasting think terroir, varietals and process. I had the chestnut & wild mushrooms with garlic & herbs on organic sourdough supplied by an artisan maker. This dish was well balanced, delicious and a decent portion. My wife had the salmon bagel with cream cheese and scallions. She declared it delicious too (salmon delicately smoked by the Manchester Smoke House and bagel baked perfectly by the Bread Factory, Manchester). The sparkling water came well chilled and in a recyclable bottle. We were seated out back at a wobbly table that only required me putting my shoe on the base, the service was attentive, we were suitably distanced from other diners and they genuinely cared that we thought the milk in coffees was off. The place was spic & span clean and with their focus and transparency on quality organic food, preserving the environment (remember folks the earth is our only home) and relying on artisans for produce it's 5 green stars for them too. Really worth supporting.
