The Old Wellington

First time dining at an old English Pub and I enjoyed both the vibe and the food.

Very good portions. The steak and ale pie had a brief scent of beer in the stuffing which gave a special twist than a regular pie. Crispy crust. Smooth and buttery potato mash.

Easy 5 stars on all aspects!
I had set a high expectation on this restaurant after reading the reviews and they didn’t fail me!
The best fish and chips I’ve had, not oily but still crispy. The sea bass dish is really nice too. The white sauce is spot-on. Food is delicious and served in generous portions

Service is great! The waitress took a fantastic picture of me and my friend

Atmosphere is very cozy! Perfect lighting and warm atmosphere that I’d highly recommend anyone who’s looking for amazing food and service

Just had a great time at The Old Wellington in Manchester! The fish & chips were crispy and perfectly cooked, the Meat Pit platter was smoky and packed with flavor, and the drink selection hit the spot,  especially their ales and cocktails Great vibes, historic setting, and solid service. It's definitely worth a stop if you’re in town!

Omg this place is SO CUTE! Catherine was our server and despite having a fully booked house upstairs she was very attentive! We walked in with no reservation and were warned ahead of time we’d have to wait for food because of the private dinner on the top floor, and it was totally worth the wait. We appreciated the heads up and were happy to sit and enjoy our drinks while we waited for food. The fish and chips were fantastic. We also really enjoyed the scotch egg, halloumi fries and the sausage and mash. Bar staff was knowledgeable about beers and liquor offerings, which was helpful as we’re here from the US and wanted to try some local options. We finished our night with the sticky toffee pudding which was delicious. We will be back next time we’re in town!

We visited whilst in Manchester for the Great Manchester half, and wanted somewhere to eat some decent food after running. The place was great - it had outside seating for those wanting to enjoy the sun, and had cosy interior seating which was also nice. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the food was good and reasonably priced. We had the roast (beef), garlic schnitzel and the gnocci, and all were great.
