Halal Reviews for Comptoir Libanais Spinningfields

TLDR: Had the most wonderful time at Comptoir Libanais. Really impressed overall with the vibes, staff + food. I was there celebrating a birthday, and there was excellent service throughout, the food came out hot and fresh, and it was amazing. I even planned a little surprise birthday cake to come out, and it was executed perfectly. BIG shout out to Parker who sang Happy Birthday in the best way possible! ✨ Food: Highly recommend the mixed grill, if not, then the falafel wrap is a must. Alongside the main meal, a mezze sharing platter is a must (Baba ghanoush from here is my ultimate favourite). Baklava was lovely for a dessert (more on the very sweet side), but I think the mint tea stood out to me as a nice end to the meal. Staff: Lovely staff! Again, massive shoutout to Parker, who was attentive, made great recommendations, explained things nicely and had a key attention to detail when bringing out the surprise cake. The other staff that came over were just as attentive and friendly which was impressive. Price: I think for some, prices can seem a little higher than normal, however, I think for the portion size, the freshness that you get + the service, the price seems worth it. I would definitely pay again but only for a little celebration or a treat (if I can control myself and not go back again next week!). Atmosphere: This is often overlooked but I think the venue of the restaurant is gorgeous. Absolutely stunning details, relating to the culture + heritage behind the restaurant and the food they serve. Really pretty for the aesthetic shots people want and love to take, and it never felt too overwhelming or rushed. Lovely.

We had a really quick pre-theatre dinner. The waitress was great, knowing we were short on time she rushed through our drinks and food. Though I noted the wait time for the Neighbouring table was very quick too. The service was excellent and the place itself is really atmospheric. The music was in-keeping with the aesthetic but not too loud, just right. The food… my word… it was delicious. Absolute 10/10. Will definitely revisit.

I had hours to kill for my flight so looked for a Lebanese restaurant in Manchester as I love this cuisine. The food was amazing! Fresh, high quality and cooked with care. The service was also excellent. Asking about allergies, explaining all the items on my mezze and just really attentive. The waitress Dwhani was so professional. I will Definitely be back next time I’m in Manchester and have recommended it to all my friends there.
