I’ve had this place saved for a visit for years, FINALLY I made it for lunch and it was certainly worth the wait!
They very kindly allowed us to bring our dog inside too which helped us avoid sitting outside in the cold.
The mac n cheese is definitely one of the best I’ve ever tried. I can’t wait to come back next time I’m in Manchester.
Thanks to the lovely wait staff too 😊

Popped in one Saturday lunchtime , not expecting much, but it was such a wonderful experience! We sat with our dog and ordered the ham and chips grilled cheese with some coffee and it was very yummy. the lady who served us was really friendly and offered coffee refills :)
My wife and I recently checked out Northern Soul, and we were blown away by their mac and cheese and grilled cheese. Seriously, they were incredibly delicious! Not to mention, the service was top-notch, with friendly staff making us feel welcome right from the start. Sure, the prices were a bit on the higher side, but for the quality of food and service, it was definitely worth it. I'm already planning to come back and bring some friends along. Highly recommended!
Came for breakfast a few days ago, the restaurant had an amazing vibe and the service was extremely friendly and quick. Sadly, there were a couple of issues with my food. The truffle and parmesan hash browns were cold the first time they came out, but this was sorted very quickly and they were lovely and crispy the second time around. The truffle flavour was very strong so if you're not sure on truffle be aware!
The sausage grilled cheese sandwich was very tasty, with a very generous portion of sausage inside. I felt that the sandwich was a bit haphazardly put together so it didn't hold together very well and the egg, while having a lovely runny yoke, was slightly congealed and under on the white.
Overall, I'd definitely come back to Northern Soul to try their regular menu on the strength of their service and the lovely atmosphere of the restaurant.
Cute little place, always a queue to be seated- quite busy. Service is slightly slow. Good sized and delicious sandwiches, would recommend for 2 to share 1 if you are not a big eater. Must try their spicy/korean chicken wings, they were more than just delicious. Staff is very busy, have to look for them if you need something. Food is great-definitely recommend a trial.
We've been wanting to come here for years, and it was worth it! Elise went above & beyond for us as we couldn't make our minds up, so we ended up sharing 3 dishes. The mozzarella bites were amazing!! There was a great atmosphere, everyone seemed in good spirits. There was a bit of a wait for a table, but that's always a good sign. Our only niggle was that there wasn't enough cheese on the traditional raclette. We'll be back!
It was so good the first time, we had to take our son and his girlfriend the 2nd time!
I, of course, had to order the MAC ATTACK again (minus the fried chicken) this time but still couldn't finish it.
Definitely worth a visit if you want something different.
Really friendly staff, made me and my partner feel genuinely welcome.
The Soul Toastie and house fries was fantastic, arrived at our table in no time. I’d highly recommend visiting this establishment!
Cheese-lovers unite! They certainly know what they're doing here at Northern Soul with the gooey, stringy deliciousness that is melted cheese. 🧀 I shared the mac 'n' cheese waffle fries with one of my friends, and I also had The Soul with tomatoes and jalapeños. So tasty!!
Lovely restaurant. Server was amazing as was the food. Excellent music and atmosphere in general.
We both ordered the New Yorker and some mozzarella bites and the quality was incredible. We were also served by Elise who was very friendly with her service and was helpful when it came to explaining the menu. Will definitely be returning

I first rang the week before our visit to enquire if we'd need to book a table for 3 as we were celebrating our sisters 18th birthday but was told we'd probably get a seat quickly. When we arrived we didn't realise the football was on too so we were told there was a half-hour wait, however we were only waiting 10mins before we were shown to a table. We were happy to wait and over the moon when we had as the food was well worth any waiting time! Amazing melt in the mouth pork and chicken, Mac 'n cheese was THE best ever!! The cocktails were so tasty! The most welcoming and upbeat service from our server Elise(sorry if spelt wrong) when she heard our love for pickles she suggested the jars they sell, to which we jumped out of our seats for! It was even entertaining a whole train carriage of people on our way home guessing how many were inside and wanting to buy it off us..we thoroughly enjoyed our time at NSGC and eating pickles for weeks! A bit of a late review as we went 23rd September but we're definitely going back!!
Absolutely delicious food, great service and good value for money. We had 5 different dishes and each one was as good as the other. Highly recommended for cheese lovers. 💛🧀 💛🧀💛
By far the best place for the thickest, most tasty milkshakes I’ve ever had! It’s definitely my favourite place to go for the best mac n cheese and any grilled cheese sandwiches. They are so good, as are the mozzarella sticks and the seasoned fries! Not to mention, the staff is so friendly and lovely, they always do their best to accommodate and make you feel welcome. Highly recommended!
Stopped here to line our bellies before a long drive back to Essex. The frickles were amazing. I've never had them with jalopenos before. Both sandwiches we got were glutinous in the best way possible.
Thank you so much. What a great find for our first trip to Manchester.

Very nice grilled cheese sandwhich. I think the service was so and so, almost felt like we were getting kicked out in the end.
Honestly some of the best food in Manchester. I go with my colleagues and we leave so full and satisfied, the menu is stacked with so many options and it's worth every penny. It's cooked to perfection, that first bite is heaven each time, you just never want it to end. The team are lovely and chatty, they are fully knowledgeable with the menu and what's good and what goes with what food, we're all due another visit very soon so the excitement is real. Highly, highly recommend visiting here, if you are in Manchester for a day trip THIS is the place to eat.
Food was great & the service was 10/10 - super friendly and efficient. Try the Maple Bacon Milkshake, you will not be disappointed.
Finally made it!
I've been looking to visit here for such a long time and glad it was worth the wait!
The grilled cheese was done to perfection, and would recommend a bowl of frickles!
My friend had the mozzarella sticks which are insanely huge, and real good value for money - but also incredibly tasty.
The only issue is there's nothing like this in my neck of the woods so I'm going to need to visit again to try the other items, unless I can get a deliveroo to the North East!
Would 1000% recommend.
