The Brunswick in Manchester

I have never been inside the pub it seems really busy been past there when getting my bus seems like really lively especially on the weekends

Very surprised with the food. Tasty and generous portions. If you need to catch up the train it's a great place to have supper before leaving

Este pequeño gran pub estaba al lado del hotel donde me alojaba y era útil para una pinta rápida con amigos. Gran selección de cervezas de barril y barman muy amable!

Near to piccadilly train station, had a drink, clean pub, seating outside as well.

Came on the weekend for a short stay in Manchester and mistakenly stepped in here. 45 minutes for food, the place was empty fyi. I was refused to be served a burger because breakfast is until 1pm, yet my food arrived at 1.20pm. Everyone else was allowed to order a burger. Food was ish, good only because we were starving.

Very good pub, close to the station. We ate very well, good service, good atmosphere

Breakfast and a beer on match day. Good way to start the day

Good food and drink served promptly despite the pub being busy on a football match day.

Great music! We enjoyed this pub.

Arrived in Manchester at 9.50 we weren't sure where to go had a wander for 5 mins and came across this pub. Opened at 10am lovely staff, great pub.

Decent pub, a good service and security.

Friendly pub staff nice just the ticket half cold lager on a warm day 😀

Amazing service tonight from Camo! Really friendly and genuine guy! We will be sure to return thanks for making us feel welcome :)

Nice location from train station

A nice cosy pub for an afternoon drink having just arrived at Piccadilly Station

Typical English pub in the centre. Nice atmosphere . It's worth visiting.

Nice pub a short walk from Piccadilly station. Was a nice stop for a quick drink on the way for a train. Not quite so rowdy as some of the city centre pubs and with a reasonable selection of beverages available. As well as some very comfortable wing back chairs (if they are free)

Great aperol spritz and delicious food. We didn’t expect much but the small plates were all lovely and great portion sizes. The service isn’t great but it is more of a pub than restaurant, so we didn’t mind.

Great pub, Great service. Only thing that puts me off is sitting outside and the beggars come and mither you. And before I get grief for that I give to the folks on the street but don't want mithering when having a pint after my working day

Good food reasonably priced drinks average for city centre. Met up with friends and it was a good choice of venue. Sat outside in the sun

I can't rate the food because after waiting an hour our food still hadn't arrived despite the place being half empty. We got a refund and the manager did not even make the effort to come over or apologise! Meanwhile the poor girl that processed our refund was visibility shaken up and apologising profusely and saying she had just been shouted at by the kitchen and the manager! Absolutely no way to run a pub or treat your staff!

Visited on a quiet Sunday morning for breakfast. After an hour's wait (and despite chasing) our food just didn't arrive and no indication of how much longer it would be. Food was across two separate orders, and the neighbouring table only received part of their order after an hour and only after chasing too. We eventually asked for a refund and went elsewhere. The manager - who took our original order - wouldn't get involved and sent junior staff to apologise, despite them being visibly upset. Obviously mistakes happen - but to lose at least 3 separate food orders, still fail to serve them after chasing, and to upset your staff then send them to deal with customers instead of the manager taking responsibility is terrible. Wouldn't recommend and won't be going back.

Great pub food. Big portions. Excellent menu choices. Staff friendly.

Great place to relax and have a bite to eat. Pure chance we didn't know the establishment at all. We highly recommend. For Frenchies who are not used to it, here we order dishes at the bar 😉. We enjoyed it, Thanks!

Really nice bar right in the heart of Manchester. Only had snacks, but they were lovely. Battered chicken with a spicy dip. Good selection of beers. I had blue moon with a slice of orange. Was the best drink I had all day. They also sell nice coffee. Bar staff are very friendly. Well worth a visit if you are in town for a show.

After missing my train I needed to fill 2 hours and I was lucky enough to find this place x Annie the barmaid was lovely, even helping my carry my drink so I didn't have to struggle with my bags. Thank you for amazing service and turning my bad day in to a good one

Encontrarme con la familia pasó por este pub que había “googleado” como una posibilidad, pero no tenía planes firmes, ya que no estamos familiarizados con Manchester. No nos decepcionó la comida, bebidas y sobre todo el personal era excepcional

Nice place to meet up and have drinks x

Great public house in the heart of Manchester Piccalilly. Nice atmosphere, great selection of beers. Wine and spirits.

Strongbow dark fruit on tap, sit out the front on a nice day

Popped in for breakfast bank holiday weekend very good food decent portions too

Great place to stop for a cider! Super casual and light hearted.

Nice pub with outside seating in the sun. Some nice beers on tap. Friendly staff.

Absolutely fabulous. The chef is an absolute professional who made alterations to my sons meal to make it dairy free. The meals were superb and delectable. A little bit noisy but overall a great experience.

Despite being "the pub that everyone passes by", The Brunswick is somewhat of a gem of a pub tucked away amongst the hustle and hustle of Central Manchester. Bar staff were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating and served a cracking pint of Guinness.

Everything rocks about this joint.

Great little pub had lunch in there yesterday was fantastic top quality cooked perfectly. That good we went for breakfast rhis morning which was just as good 10/10

The food and service was excellent. My order was served incorrect to start with and they offered a free drink for the inconvenience. Took nothing away from the experience.

Very good food, good beer and friendly

Went in for a pint. They were closing early that night. Different hours than Google suggested.

Good service and a good choice of drinks, didn't try the fold so can't comment on it

This is a lovely pub. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and the service is quick and efficient. It's got a nice friendly atmosphere as well. The Guinness is very good indeed. I'll definitely pop back in here again in the future.

Good music, lovely staff, beautiful cocktails and affordable food. Been coming for the last few weeks recently and have had nothing but brilliant experiences. All the staff including the manager always made me feel welcome. Highly recommended.

Very busy place.. Little higher price. Beer ok.

Great pub to drop in a beer after the game

Always a good place to stop off for a drink and a bite to eat in-between trains.

Good prices and great bar staff

Good pub to visit after a long train journey into Manchester. Comfortable and relaxed.

It's a nice pub with a lovely selection of alcohol

Had a very tasty fish & chunky chips with Manchester caviar. Ordered & quickly arrived. Great talkative staff. Washed down with pint.

Nice traditional pub, good to just sit, have a chat with friends, relaxed atmosphere

Top boozer. . Food is excellent 👌

Good smart bar near to Piccadilly station, drinks are expensive and keeps the riff raff out

Near the train station, food looked good but we didn't eat , nice pub

So good!! We had a few small plates, Roasted Heirloom tomato bruschetta and chicken tenders along with the chicken burger and a side of onion rings...let me first say the place, atmosphere, music choice and staff are absolutely perfect. Then, the food was delicious. The chicken was so tender with a great crunch. The onion rings were perfectly seasoned and flavored. Would Def recommend The Brunswick to anyone coming to the area! Five out of five, hands down!!

Drinks are decently priced and the music was good.

Great barmaid yesterday evening. Made some amazing cocktails. Super friendly and chatty. Made our night.

Had a great pub lunch here today. We had a chicken and a beef burger - both excellent. Don’t over order on sides - portions are huge. We ordered 2 side of chips - one would have been too much.

Very pleasant place staff Very friendly first time in Manchester will be back

Dropped in here as a first watering hole from MCR Piccadilly and (a) loved the food and (b) found the drink prices eye watering. But then the MCR of my youth is long gone - but the pie and chips remains top! Had the pukka steak pie, handcut chips, peas and gravy. The gravy was homemade and outstanding - as were the chips!

The food was delicious and hot, the service was fast and the staff were friendly.

Great place to visit, food choice was good, service was good

Lovely down to earth pub. We just had a drink or 3

Good pub , nice atmosphere. Kept dpor open so cold and fag smoke was drifting in .

50% off food on Mondays - extremely good value! We had two starters, two mains and some sides for £26. Food portions was very good and the quality and tastiness of everything we had was 10/10. Easily one of the best places I’ve eaten in a long time.

The food is fantastic and plentiful.

Decent pub for a pint before the train. Good selection of drinks and a nice atmosphere inside. Can get quite busy but service seems to be quick.

It's a pub, so not glamorous, the staff are great and the food was prepared to order and served hot. Lovely food, it was quiet, which was very relaxing. Would go back in a flash.

Amazing very hot food would go again if we were in Manchester

Had an amazing dessert would come here again staff very friendly and welcoming just what I needed

Very very nice great music ,popped in from cork on way home to Newcastle very nice thank you .xx Susan

Needed a quick dinner, popped in here as next to where we were staying. Confusion over what time the kitchen closed, confusion over the cocktail deal. Food was ok. Friendly enough staff, just felt a bit unorganised.

Nice staff and enjoyed a good sandwich. Was there for just a short time whilst waiting for a flight later on in the day but they were accommodating and made sure that you got everything you needed. Atmosphere was a calm - pretty chill.

Nice pub near Piccadilly station

Wow, called into the Brunswick today, first time, AMAZING. BEST BREAKFAST EVER. Will definitely be visiting here again, each time I come Manchester. Super chilled venue with super friendly staff. See you soon guys

Wanted to have a coffee and something to eat - small late brunch or just a bite before heading home - a bar tender proposed a nice starter - bait fish in breadcrumbs with tartare sauce. I asked for extra salad and was amazed - it was really great food and at a great price, too. And coffee - real brown sugar cubes to add extra flavour - you don't get it often. And music and candles at the table - lovely atmosphere. I enjoyed my treat and recommend. Hope to visit soon again :)

First time back in Manchester in a long time for a works reunion found this gem we all had a great night thanks guys .

Good atmosphere, great bar staff. Chilled vibe!

Steak and eggs off the breakfast menu and the tomato compote were unbelievably good. Nice coffee too.

Called for a breakfast around 11 am and was ok til a couple came into pub under the influence of various substances I guess but ended up having ablazing row and smashing a glass - welcome to city centre pubs !!

A very pleasant afternoon spe t in the Brunswick. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere...

Very friendly barstaff. Food was delicous.

Great place for a beer and a bite to eat before you go to a gig in the city. It has a relaxed vibe and the staff are attentive and relaxed at the same time. I love to spend some time here.

Nice small bar , good selection of drinks. Bar man very good.

Really enjoyed our lunch here .. fabulous friendly bar maid and bar man . Excellent customer service .. will certainly be back ..

Brilliant atmosphere and food lovely 5 stars ⭐

This is a great pub with good food and really friendly efficient staff. We popped in for lunch this week as it wasn’t far from our hotel. We were served quickly and the food was really tasty. They have a good food menu with a great selection of cocktails and other drinks, and lots of special offers available at different times.

A great pub, excellent decor and very friendly staff plus excellent beers and food. superb taste in music as well. Recommended.

Always call in here if passing through for City games

Lovely pub good selection of ale , bit pricey but expected of this location . Friendly bar staff who helped us pick a beer to drink . Thanks guys 😁🏳️‍⚧️

From what I can remember a friendly place on a Saturday night!

Lovely pub in the heart of Manchester. Only popped in for a quick drink but ended up ordering a few starters. Can't believe the portion sizes, they are massive! Food was lovely and well presented too. Staff really friendly also. Especially manager and other gent on the bar. Will be back

Day out in Manchester and by far had the best time here...French martini was better than the alchemist made by the beautiful Charel! Long Island ice tea's made by the gorgeous Lamy! And what's more 2 for £12 on cocktails! Such a vibe here, music was great, service was absolute quality! Thanks for a fantastic evening, would definitely return again! 😘

Good place to meet, a decent selection of beer and Guinness was good. Sadly the music far too loud to hold a conversation

Me and wife+daughter called in to have a drink before catching train to Stoke

Proper run pub, methodical, & timelessly done at Brunswick. Very busy due to football fans Man Utd v Barcelona. No customers were over waiting and staff done a great job with a smile even though rushed off their feet behind the bar & kitchen.

Visited here twice over the weekend. It's close to travelodge Picadilly and the train station. Lovely friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. I didn't have food but it looked lovely. Big shout out to the friendly door staff/ security Mo for helpful directions and advice. Will return in my next trip to Manchester.

Lovely bar, friendly staff and security. Very pleasant..was on a few nights on my Manchester trip

We had some fries and some beer.

Great staff and very good music!
