   We had the set menu which is really great value for the money. Staff were excellent and served the food promptly. Great views over Manchester!

   For the first time we went to 20 Stories to celebrate our birthdays. The place is great and the staff were smiling and welcoming . We had a cocktail on the terrace and admired the view before dinner. After we sat down and decided to have the scallops and the Porterhouse steak. The menu was great so it was a difficult decision. The steak took a while to arrive but it didn’t matter much as we were having a good time watching the sunset over Manchester skyline. For desert as it was a celebration decided to share a chocolate fondant. And till here everything was wonderful. However after waiting 40 min . The waiter came to the table with two empty plates with writing on them ‘ Happy Birthday’ but not desert. He then told us they didn’t have any and said if we wanted to order anything else. We of course after waiting that long we didn’t want anything else. I would have expected better from a restaurant of this category and a expensive bill. We gave the manager the feedback that night before we left but just took it the feedback. It’s a shame that could have been a great night from start to finish.

   Family dinner, great service, fantastic ambiance and had a real ‘wow!’ factor. Wine list good, food good. It’s certainly somewhere we will re-visit if we return to Manchester. It’s hard to impress my family but this place delivered.

   Terrible service. Constant asking if we wanted to order when clearly we were in the midst of discussions. Also had to ask 3 times for a glass of wine and was just fobbed off. Other than the management, the waiting staff were useless.

   From moment of entering, you know you are in a special environment. All staff are pleasant and well trained. This is the kind of restaurant where the rich & famous would be comfortable dining in. We felt comfortable and cared for despite our humble origins! Roberto from Hungary was a perfect waiter in every way. Many thanks to all staff for a memorable visit. Regards, Barbara & Steve, Liverpool

    I booked 20 stories as a treat for my sister and I before a concert in Manchester. It was mid week so not too busy not too quiet. We arrived early and were happily seated at the bar for a cocktail before our table was ready - it’s a beautiful setting. Initially for dinner we were sat in a bit of a corridor and it felt like trays were being lifted over our heads - we were asked to be moved which was accommodated. I felt like the beautiful booths were a little wasted as these seemed to be filled last - but we did get moved to a table with a great view. Food was brilliant - we had a chateaubriand with sides to share. No room for pudding unfortunately. Service was average. We requested a table outside for drinks after dinner as part of the booking but this wasn’t factored in (we just went outside ourselves but it was luck as it was pretty busy)

    The atmosphere is always great at 20 Stories; however service was quite slow between meals and drinks orders, and I tried to give our coats in for the closet but it was completely full so we had our coats on seats which wasn’t ideal. A good night but could have been quicker bringing our meals out.

    Our first time here and first date of the New Year for the wife and I . The food took entirely too long to come out . We ordered our food at 7:20 pm -lamb ( well done) .Coming from a hotel and restaurant mgr background this was taken into consideration . Our food did not come out until 8:13 pm. The waiter did advise the food was coming at some point but even the remembrance of him faded after 20 more minutes surpassed .

    A real event restaurant, with fantastic views over the city of Manchester. A very buzzy atmosphere, with everyone dressed to the nines and there to be seen looking at their best. Often, this type of restaurant can be all form and no substance, but the food and service at 20 Stories was excellent and lived up to the atmosphere and location. Not cheap, but recommended for a special occasion.

    Atmosphere and surroundings great but we felt it was very overpriced. I know it's not just the food you're paying for but rates, wages, location etc but still....£22 for 3 prawns a bit steep imo.

    Loved this place. Great atmosphere and great views of Manchester. The toilets offer great views, similar to those offered in the Shard in London. We had Sunday lunch and was really nice. Lovely house wines and the beer was ok too. We did not use the pods outside but offer those who want to experience the views without the meal a good opportunity to have drinks with a difference. We will go back again soon

    Disappointed- The vegetarian/ vegan option was a plate of carrots and for a substantial price! I’ve been here before and had a brilliant meal so I’m shocked at how little options were available and the standard of food! However staff were friendly and attentive. But wouldn’t recommend for anyone with dietary requirements.
