BrewDog Manchester Outpost

Nice bar with pleasant staff. Good place to sit down and have a chat with a drink. The menu, when the kitchen is closed, is a bit cheeky. Be aware that a 'cheese platter' is literally a small bag of cheese bits, not a sharing platter or any 'real' cheese.

Lovely food, fantastic choice of ale. Friendly, attentive service. Vegetarian options: Very good selection.

What happened to Brewdog, this place has gone massively downhill. The food is rancid and greasy, what used to be some of the best chicken wings out there are now coated in this horrid thick breadcrumb layer and dripping with grease, barely any chicken or flavour at all. Beer is flat and unexciting. The place had a dead atmosphere, but no surprise no one was there given the poor quality of both food and drink. Won’t be coming back here.

Booked because I was going to a gig at Manchester Academy. Pre gig party was advertised on socials saying music would be played etc. Despite there being quite a few people in who were obviously going to the gig there was no sign of a "party" or any Stiff Little Fingers tunes! Not an issue albeit this was the reason I was there. Service was good and there was a problem with my wifes meal - some of the ingredients were missing. We were offered a replacement meal but instead we had it removed from the bill and were given free drinks so very happy with how that was dealt with. Burger was excellent. So a positive experience but care re advertising "events" that dont materialise

Food was really good. Drinks were decent. Staff were friendly. Definitely worth popping in.

First round of wings were bountiful and tasty. Second round felt like smaller wings were given. The Buffalo and Korean spice flavours were lovely, however, the dragon spice was like a salt and pepper vibe but far too heavy on the salt, almost like they'd been drowned in saxa table salt. No complaints about service, although we felt like if you were trying to break an all you can eat it record it would've been impossible with the time between wing deliveries. Only real feedback would be please offer a sauce for people who don't like spicy, but don't want dry wings. Really loved the prickly pear sour beer brewed on site.

We booked a table for 6 people at 6.30 as a pre gig meal on Saturday. We ordered food and were told no vegetarian burger option. The vegetarian in the group had to have chips only. We were not told there would be a wait. An hour and a half later we got our food, cold chips and not very special burgers after the wait. The reason given was they were down a fryer and grill ! Missed the support act and right at the back Won't be going there again. They quite rightly gave us a discount on the bill. Vegetarian options: No vegetarian option for burgers. Only fake chicken burgers which I don't like.

Gluten free option not available. Salad smothered in salad area like dressing which wasn't very pleasant in itself and swamped the taste of the other ingredients. Vegetarian options: Poor selection of vegetarian food if you don't want faux meat.
