Food Quality
Pros:
"The food was to die for! Best roast I have had in Manchester."
"Everything about the place was excellent. Food was amazing."
"Food - we had short ribs, crispy chicken, frickles, and focaccia to share. Beautifully presented, well-made and fabulous flavors."
"I had the popular Sunday roast and it didn't disappoint. It was lovely."
"We had some hummus and flatbread to start which was brilliant. The Sunday roast was a generous portion and cooked perfectly."
"The food was amazing, thanks to the kitchen team! Really good value for money."
"The food, the drinks, the service and the attention to detail was absolutely spot on."
"Amazing food, great service and a fabulous setting with a warm and vibrant atmosphere."
Cons:
"We found things just average, not exceptional. Food wise, the Yorkshire pudding was over-baked, browny and bitter."
"The pork roast has its fastening string unremoved. Squash mash too moist."
"We had the main of roast. The Cauliflower cheese portion is very small for the price of it. Dessert was basic."
"Although the food was nice in general, portions very very small for the price."
"The food is either good or it is bad. No consistency at all. Some dishes were spoiled with way too much garlic and oil."
"First and last visit. Slightly pretentious. Food nothing special and very overpriced."
"I was disappointed by my main course which was a risotto, it was dry and definitely not up to restaurant standards."
"Although you maybe able to book a food and drinks table for 9pm, you cannot order food at 9pm!!!"
Service Quality
Pros:
"Amazing service, we were greeted with amazing service, atmosphere and the food was to die for!"
"The staff were outstanding. Kieran and another lovely man looked after us."
"The staff always recognize him and treat us all as special customers. They are genuinely some of the friendliest, most knowledgeable, and conscientious people I’ve encountered."
"The staff were super friendly and efficient and Josh was excellent on the gin tour."
"Really friendly woman at the door - Faye - and great staff behind the bar."
"Did the gin tasting and Sunday lunch (vegan). It was good - tasting was great experience. Overall the staff made it really good. Service and atmosphere exceptional."
"We recently held our Winter Staff conference here! It was fab, the gin tours were really informative and interesting, and Chloe really helped organize the whole day perfectly."
"What a fantastic team that run this place! The lady on the front was so enthused and knowledgeable which made the visit really!"
Cons:
"Service wise, the waiter was nice but the lady showed us to our table was not very friendly."
"The wait time for 4 small plates was ridiculous, well over 40 minutes."
"Service was great and very friendly staff. Food was brilliant - different to what I’d ever had before but will be back to try some more of the menu."
"Booking was at 4:30pm. In 90 minutes we had 1 drink and 4 small plates of food. Not through our choice, that’s how many times we were asked despite attempting to grab the attention of a few staff on a number of occasions."
"Had to ask for the bill and leave after one drink due to the music being really loud, had to shout to talk, felt like we needed ear plugs!"
"Made a group booking for 13 about 4 weeks in advance for my wife's 50th birthday, on the day we were running 30 mins late so as per their booking reminder we phoned ahead to let them know."
"The blond lady at the reception with a super man t-shirt, was very unwelcoming and rude. We felt like we didn't deserve to be served."
"We were ushered through to the 'unauthorized area' otherwise known as the store room. We had the company of the forklift truck and the metal shelves. It smelt like an uncleaned fish tank."
Atmosphere and Decor
Pros:
"Very nice interior decor."
"One of my favourite cocktail bars ever! Very mellow afternoon vibe, nice music, comfy seats, nice loos, and the feeling of being valued customers."
"Proficient cocktail bar nestled in amongst a working gin distillery - Spirit of Manchester. Good big space with lots of seating and a dedicated gin tasting room."
"Amazing service (no surprise) very nice staff, kind faces and really nice decor... definitely coming again."
"Overall the experience was great. The space felt busy but also intimate."
"Gin Making Session - What a fantastic afternoon we have had at Three Little Words making our own gin. The session lasted about 2.5 hours."
"The vibe is so on point and relaxed it really is a fantastic night out here. Will be returning again and again!"
"Beautiful restaurant and bar. The atmosphere was lovely with a great singer and guitar player."
Cons:
"We were ushered through to the 'unauthorized area' otherwise known as the store room. We had the company of the forklift truck and the metal shelves. It smelt like an uncleaned fish tank."
"Very nice bar and restaurant attached to the Manchester Gin distillery under the railway arches."
"Great cocktail bar and restaurant with Gin Distillery and tasting room. The space is very beautiful and has a cool hip vibe, live DJ on the Saturday night we visited."
"We were welcomed in by the doormen a very rude young lady told us to leave as the bar was “full”."
"We were all in such a good mood after just finishing dinner, and none of us were drunk. We were having a laugh and talking to some customers and the bar staff. Only to be told off by a manager 10 mins later to not leave the table."
"Enjoyed the food and cocktails on Saturday. We stumbled by only by chance so hadn’t booked and the host was very accommodating, a 10 minute wait at the bar with a cocktail and we was seated."
"It's a nice vibrant place with friendly stuff. Music was nice and I wouldn't have minded if I was going there for the cocktail bar, but it was a bit too loud for dinner."
"A wonderful evening at the launch week of Three Little Words ...wonderful food and amazing cocktails! A super stylish venue beneath the brick arches - luxe fabrics, gleaming copper and honeycomb mirrors."
