Essy's Spinningfields

My first time purchasing a halal sunday roast. The food was very nice. For me the chicken was slightly in the dry side. I would definitely return and also have the chicken again. Well after I try the other offerings.

We were staying at travelodge central and was bored of the usual breakfast there so decided to go for a walk and so happened passed by this cafe. What a gem! Friendly staff quick service. Good atmosphere. Really enjoyed breakfast. the royale smoked salmon paoched eggs on sourdough with avo salad drizzle of spicy mayo plus the homemade creamy sauce that came with it (served in tiny cup) tasty on my palate. Highly recommended. Will visit again when I’m in Manchester.

So I have a breakfast here every week. Perfect. Get a Sunday dinner delivered every Sunday. The food is perfect. The delivery of the food is consistently terrible it just comes as an absolute mess pretty much every week. The gravy tubs are empty and the contents spilled all over the bag. The paper tray had come open yet again this week and I had to scoop my dinner out of a soggy plastic bag. I guarantee it didn’t leave the shop in that condition and I believe they complain about it to just eat / uber eats. But maybe it’s time to rethink the packaging to stand up to the rigours of travelling across Manchester on the back of a bicycle because it’s not on receiving your dinner that you’ve spent 40-60 a week on.
