    I booked at table at Albert’s for lunch with friends. The service was excellent and I requested a break between courses to give us time to chat. The food we ordered was good and we weren’t disappointed with our choices. We had a lovely afternoon and there was no sense that we were being rushed by the staff.

    Great welcome, seated straight away and with thought put in to where to sit us. Service was always with a smile and the food topped off an already good experience. It all looked good and tasted even better. Will be back soon!

    Unfortunately our experience this time was very poor. Our order had not been added to the system and sent to the kitchen so we were waiting for about 50 minutes for our food. When it did arrive our dishes came 10 minutes apart, again due to a miscommunication with the kitchen staff. Food itself was very good but the overall experience was not want we would expect. Disappointing.

    In the past week I have dined twice at Albert’s Shed. I have just moved to Manchester and have been celebrating with family. On both occasions I was very impressed with the service, food and the vibe of the restaurant. The restaurant is very tastefully decorated and has a very classy atmosphere. The menu has something for everyone. The garlic bread is lovely thin based 😋 I had the Malaysian chicken twice! 😋 The mini dessert options are perfectly sized if you are feeling a little full up but still fancy a bit of a treat. Great selection of drinks/ cocktails. The staff are lovely and incredibly attentive- nothing too much trouble. The food & drinks are reasonably priced also.
