Piccolino Caffé Grande, Manchester

Absolutely excellent! Don’t think twice about it. We were just looking for a spot to grab a bite and have a good chat for a couple of hours. We enjoyed our time there so much that I completely forgot to snap any photos of our food!

The chefs are highly skilled, and their attentive service staff ensures that their talents shine through without any shortcomings. As a fan of Italian cuisine, I can confidently say that these chefs are at the top of their game!

The food and atmosphere were fantastic. However, I must highlight the wonderful Jennifer, who is an incredible waitress and made our evening truly special. She assisted my friend with her dairy intolerance by providing an alternative dressing for her pasta with chicken, which was truly a marvelous dish—although I have to say I adored the lasagna I had even more. It's a lovely place with some of the best food in England. Thank you, everything was delicious!

We went on Saturday night and it looked busy. The food was excellent however, my aperol spritz was on the weak side and the waitresses were rushing and even missed a drinks order on the table (1 person didn't get their order in) and there was no check backs.

We visited this restaurant on a recommendation and really glad we did. The decor is lovely and the restaurant had a really good atmosphere. It seemed pretty busy for a Sunday night but service was prompt and well delivered. Food was delicious and I would particularly recommend the arancini. I have arancini any time I see it on a menu and this was about the best I have had Edit: Visited again on another trip to Manchester. We were served by Cesare, who was fantastic and very engaging. Another fantastic meal.
