Evelyn's Cafe Bar

Fantastic experience overall. Only reason not getting five stars is that one of our dishes (French Toast) was surprisingly smaller than the other dish (Pancakes). Given both very similar dishes, for one to be less than half the size was disappointing.

We were going out for my dad's birthday, some of us are vegan and vegetarian and some have allergies, so we picked Evelyn's because of the vegetarian and vegan options. We had booked for 8 o'clock on Sunday evening.

Steven - the manager rang us at about 6 o'clock to let us know that they had run out of some meals, which was a lovely thought to let us decide. He assured us that we could pick off the main weekday menu as well, even emailing us the menus to help us decide.

From when we got there it was a really friendly experience. Our waitress Yemi was an absolute delight, laughing and joking with my dad and explaining the menu, suggesting drinks and just generally being very helpful.

The food was gorgeous, and as the menu has many plant-based choices we were able to share food and everyone could try.

We had brought a cake for my dad and Yemi, without being asked, put some candles in it for him, which was a lovely touch.

Honourable mention to Jake and Luca the bartenders who made us some gorgeous cocktails including a bespoke mojito for my dad.

And as a lovely touch, they took my dad's drinks off the menu.

All together a delightful evening. Thank you to all.

Absolutely love this place. Excellent food. Excellent service. Excellent music. Relaxed atmosphere. Probably my favourite restaurant in Manchester right now.

From the moment we stepped in the door at Evelyn's it was a lovely experience. The food was beautiful and full of flavour. The service was fantastic, very friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely recommend.

Gorgeous place, fantastic service and loved that the lychee lemonade was big enough for 2 glasses - very good value and presentation.
Sadly my Choice of the coconut chicken was out - and weirdly I had a feeling this might be the Case (the description sounded amazing so I knew it would be popular and it was so busy) I guess my feedback would be to ensure you have surplus ingredients for the more popular dishes. I think the crab burger could have been served with more to increase the portion size and maybe with something other than a lettuce leaf - for the money and as advertised as “big”.
Anyway, we would definitely come back, it was lovely overall.

Fantastic place, lovely people. They present unique tastes!

Roast was a decent portion and left everyone full. The lunch pancakes and SOOO GOOD! And the honeycomb on top is just delicious. Definitely try it!
Vietnamese Coffee wasn’t anything special though
Overall my group had a good time there :)

We’ve always been impressed, every time we’ve been 10/10 for everything, but we just felt the food was just not up to your usual standards

Incredible flavours, atmosphere and staff

I came here for a bridesmaid proposal. Staff were very accommodating for my balloons/Brad Pitt mask and the service was fantastic. The staff even gave their own reviews of their favourite Brad Pitt films. Couldn’t be happier with how well they treated us. Excellent food too - thank you so much!

Evelyn's was recommended to me by a friend and did not disappoint. My tuna poke was delicious and perfectly seasoned, my boyf has the courgette burger and spicy fries, which he said was also delicious. The room was buzzy and the décor really on trend. The servers were very nice, and avoided that too cool for school attitude that a lot of similar places have

Thoroughly enjoyed our night at Evelyn's Cafe - great food and service. We will go again!

First year anniversary meal, from the moment you walk in to the moment you walk out, you are made to feel very welcome. The food is amazing

Amazing restaurant nice atmosphere. The food was great too

Start of great night with friend
Great food and good service
Thanks

Fabulous place to eat and socialise!
Great food. Lovely vibe lovely staff.

Excellent food as always, and more than happy to check for specific allergens not listed on the menu. Super helpful staff, a good atmosphere, and great value are some of the many reasons we keep going back (as well as the amazing brownie!)

The decor and ambience is amazing, we were seated quickly which was great. The taste of the food was amazing and great presentation but most of the group felt the portions were small which meant we had to pick up a further snack at the next place.

My favourite place for brunch every time I visit Manchester. The staff are lovely, the food is incredible - especially the Shakshuka - and great cocktails. A must visit place for anyone venturing to Manchester.

As always the service in Evelyn's was brilliant, our waitress was really friendly and welcoming, it felt like talking to someone you already know! Lovely service that matched the warm atmosphere. Loved the food and will continue to recommend! Thank you! xx

Great location, fab music selection the night i was there and food is very tasty and relaxing place to eat

Really good lunch meeting up with a friend - coconut chicken and duck salad.
Very pleasant

The food for delicious and they catered to our needs, the downstairs bar is lovely too. Great spot for a girls night!

Very friendly staff. Ate there 3 times last week and very happy with everything we had.

Food was bland. Portions were small. Long wait. Service was good but was out of stock with practically everything. Wouldn't rush back

We love this place so relaxed, food excellent and the staff flamboyantly wonderful as always. Great place!

Just a lovey place & the food is just lovely too. Especially the roast dinner. Gravy is aaaahhhhh yummmmm

My husband and I have been to Evelyn's twice now, and both times the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent. We'll definitely be visiting again :-)

The staff were really attentive, food came out really quickly and the ambience was really relaxing. Would definitely come back

Great food, pleasant staff, beautiful restaurant. I would recommend it 100%

We had a lovely dinner in Evelyn's (I've eaten here a few times and it's always been amazing - particularly the buttermilk pancakes on the breakfast menu). We had a gorgeous chicken satay noodle dish for our main and delicious French toast with ice cream and honeycomb for dessert. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, beautifully cooked with tasty, well balanced flavours. Our waiter was also fantastic. He was really polite and couldn't have done any more for us. I highly recommend Evelyn's and I can't wait to return! Thank you.

Love this place. Good food, amazing cocktails, lovely atmosphere. Staff are friendly and attentive.

Was on a lunch date and the waiter was more then helpful explaining the new dishes on the menu and the food was amazing as it always is here. Love the atmosphere in this place. Highly recommend it.

Lovely restaurant that provides a diverse and healthy lunch and brunch menu with a range of interesting soft drinks and health shots. I had the kedgeree bowl which was nice but very salty.

Always great food when we go here and excellent vegan choices. Service excellent and will continue to keep coming here!

Evelyn's never disappoints. The atmosphere is good and staff are friendly. I would definitely recommend going here for brunch.

Loved the food
Best steak and eggs I've ever had, will definitely be back

One of the best food in Manchester. Healthy and good choice and offer of fish, meat, sides, starters and desserts.
