    I booked a table for 5pm as we were going to see a show at the AO arena. I chose Hardrock as it was near by, the staff were lovely and friendly, apart the the member of staff at front of house taking my booking, I mentioned about sharing starters with my Mum because we were going to see a show and his/her reply was “ well to book a table you should be eating a substantial meal and something about an alcohol policy” I have never heard such rubbish. For one we both wasn’t drinking and for 2 no one should tell me what amount of food I should eat. They came across very rude. Even though they said that we were shown to our table where our waitress was very nice and understood we were going to a show and we wanted to share a a couple of starters and have a drink. Nowhere on your website states about eating a substantial meal in order to sit at the table and I haven’t got a clue what they meant about an alcohol policy.

    Very disappointing. So much money for poor food (compared to visits to other hard rocks). Poor service, the soft drinks were so small

    Atmosphere was friendly and lively, downstairs was much noisier than upstairs seating. If you want a less busy meal. Request upstairs seating our waiter stevie 100% happy with him. Food was good we had mac n cheese with chicken. Only complaint this was over salted. Possibly the chicken seasoning culprit.

    Nice ambience on a fairly busy Saturday evening. We found the staff pleasant enough, but service and level of attentiveness pretty poor, with us having to request to order drinks, and menus for desserts. I was extremely disappointed with the food, possibly one of the worst “big chain” qualities of food I have ever experienced. I opted for the chicken and rib combo, with a side of boneless chicken wings……..the chicken was grey, really gristly, and the meat on the ribs was hard. I ate what I could and then brought this to the attention of our server, his reaction was “errrr, that doesn’t look right” he took the food away, but then that was all, no offer of apology, nothing. Overall I was extremely disappointed, and the quality of food was awful, especially considering the cost upwards of £100 for 2 people.

    We went to hard rock to celebrate my partners birthday and from the minute we walked in everyone was so attentive, all of our needs met and very helpful in all aspects. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would come back again! Gemma was our serve and she was amazing from beginning to end!

    I have alot of intolerances. Last time I went the staff were amazing, this time no so great. They now use soy oil, one of my intolerances is soya proteins including soy. The ribs i had were dry and over cooked. Like they had been sat waiting to be given to someone. The rest of the food, and my family's, was fine. Not amazing, but fine. Quite loud but thats the atmosphere you expect.
    Hard Rock Cafe - ManchesterResponded on 26 January 2025
    Hello Lee. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're sorry we couldn't offer more choices given your intolerances. In regards to the ribs, I'd like to assure you all our ribs are prepared and smoked in-house. Sadly sometimes one or two don't always come out right due to the handmade smoking process. I do hope the issue was bought up with a member of the team during your visit as this is an issue we can easily rectify. We do hope you'll give us another chance and look forward to seeing you again in the future. Team HRC Manchester
