Lovely little dinner date today. We have been here a number of times for drinks, and once before for food. A lovely spot for a post walk drink or snack, and evening meals are great. Chris was very friendly and helpful.

I just wanted to thank the Manager today for being very helpfully with my son’s Autism requirements even during a very busy day in the pub.
It’s great to see a more diverse understanding around hidden disabilities making families days out a more relaxed environment within local pubs.
The Didsbury are leading the way here and would recommend that this is an inclusive family environment for hidden disabilities.
Keep up the great work!!

Great service and good food. Our Sunday roasts weren't hot enough which was a shame, especially since they are no longer such good value following recent price increases.
Despite these reservations this was still an easy 5 stars from me and recommended.
Keep up the great work, thank you.

We had a nice time for our family birthday meal here on Tuesday lunchtime. Steven and the rest of the staff were friendly and extremely attentive to the needs of our group, which spanned 4 generations.
The food was quite good overall and we appreciated the vegetarian options on the menu. It's a good pub for bringing the family to for a sit down meal, and they've clearly geared the pub to accommodate this.

Excellent atmosphere. Excellent food and service.
I respect pets, but my preference is not to have pets in a public eating establishment. Please don't let this stop you from dining here. I still enjoyed my meal and quality time with friends.
Helen Lane
The staff were lovely, my main meal of beef cheeks was delicious but my dessert of Christmas pudding was a diabolical serving. It looked like it had been through a wringer. Not recommended as a choice.

Good foods, friendly staffs, free car parking behind the building

Came here last week for my birthday - Iona, our server, was very attentive and really accommodating plus gave us some great recommendations on what to have for dinner.
Food was incredible, beer was reasonably priced and fresh, service was top-notch. Will recommend The Didsbury to anyone who visits this area 😊

Don't park here! Run by cowboy parking outfit "Euro Car Parks". My elderly mother parked in a clearly labelled disabled parking spot. She displayed the blue badge. Got "charged" £200 (£100 on consecutive days - 2 notifications came the next week) to park. Euro Car Parks are disgusting.
Update: The Didsbury have been very swift to take up the case with Euro Car Parks and we hope the charges will be cancelled.
Euro Car Parks operate on a principle of poor signage so that it maximises profit. The Didsbury want clearer signage and there's tension I think. Customers are regularly caught out by these disgraceful Car park operators.

Really nice food, friendly staff, and nice atmosphere! We really enjoy our meals outside.
Chris Roaf
Really good food, but could do with some more vegan friendly options. Ran out of dairy free milk while we were there too.
But very delicious nonetheless. Plus some lovely little parks for walks after lunch.
Ljay Rush
Had a veggie sausage sandwich it was okay. However, really great atmosphere, really dog friendly. I'll definitely be back to try a more interesting food option!! Fab location in Didsbury as well!!

The Didsbury certainly gets 5 stars all the way. Here's the key reasons why, let's start from driving towards car park.
My friend and I arrived about 6.30pm, it was dark and we had never been here before. So first time, and out first impressions were highly impressive with the well lit building, beautiful seating area at front for nice days, warm evenings, be ideal in summer.
Heading into car park, a very decent sized car park and headed into the venue.
Warmly greeted and sat down, made comfortable and offered main menu and specials menu. Ordered drinks which promptly arrived.
Lovely waitress took our order. For Starters, we had Creamy Garlic Mushrooms and Korean BBQ Chicken Strips.
Mains, we had Mixed Grill and Smothered Chicken.
Puddings, we both had Apple Tart with Custard.
All the food was well presented, beautifully cooked and both plates and food piping hot. Was wonderful and delicious. We had a really good meal and we would return, also highly recommended in this cosy venue.
Many thanks.
Sorry, no photos taken for this review, perhaps next time.

Excellent experience all around. Good food. Service provided by Chloe J was of an exceptionally high quality. Thank you for a lovely evening in Didsbury.

My wife and I used to live in Didsbury, and The Didsbury has always been our favourite pub. Visited it this afternoon, and boy, was it a treat. A pint of Greene IPA, and a delicious homemade steak and ale pie - what else would a true Brit want? Our server Steven was very helpful and polite.
Top pub!
Charlotte Rix
We had a lovely meal here and Chris provided very friendly and attentive service. We will be back again soon for more delicious food!

I hosted a party in the private room upstairs. This is a beautiful space and Becky had made a big effort to decorate it so it looked its cosy best. Abundant, very good buffet. Attentive, friendly service. I hadn't been to The Didsbury before but, on the basis of this experience, I would certainly recommend it.
Emma Ackers
Food was much better value for money last time we went a few months ago .... £12 burger was not worth £12 came with about 9 chips. The kids meal 'chicken lolly pops' which was supposed to be chicken pieces with cheese in a tomato and herb sauce came as a chicken breast covered in cheese no tomato and herb sauce in sight came with more chips than the £12 burger! Veggie burger was bland and dry, ordered the whitebait starter as last time it was delicious and huge served in a bucket, this time served in a TEACUP! .... won't be back anytime soon such a shame .... �

The Didsbury hosted our engagement party in their upstairs function room last weekend. The room is lovely, built on three levels, newly decorated and accommodated our large group of 70+ guests with ease.
We arrived early and the room was already set up, looking great. I was also allowed to hand bunting and put balloons up etc with added to the appeal. All of the staff were very attentive from the beginning right through to the end. We had an afternoon tea style event and the cake were amazing. All the guests commented on what a lovely venue and the great bubbly atmosphere.
We were over the moon and our engagement party couldn't have been better!
Thank you to all the staff.
Dominic Paul even did a few numbers (a regular live musician at the Didsbury) which went down brilliantly.
I'd highly recommend this venue �
Joanne Whitworth
I visited here with my family on Sunday and wow ! Very friendly staff, quickly served although I'd happily have waited as the food is second to none! Emily our waitress was very attentive, friendly and could't do enough to help! Beautiful place, would highly recommend x
Mike Potter
Food ok, But left use waiting for food starter came with the main meal & to top it off had to cancel dessert after 20 minutes. We won't be going back soon .
Matt Norton
We ate there on Sunday and I must say for what looked like a lovely place and comprehensive menu the food was awful! It was a £50 bill and this is what I got;
The egg had a hair in it and the 'Gourmet Burger' was over cooked near burnt and dry! Extremely disappointed.
Christopher James Mapp
superb pub, great choice of ales and was served by the amazing Harley at the bar who was warm welcoming. great place for a drink and sit in the garden.
Jo Taylor
It is a lovely pub and we found the staff friendly and pleasant. The food though could be better though. My seasonal buttered veg were hard and there was no butter on them and my daughter had pulled pork burrito but there was hardly any pork in it. The people at the two tables next to us who had food also complained about their food too. It was disappointing because it could have been so much better with more effort from the kitchen

I was there on bank holiday Monday 27th May with family. Service was good from the staff but the food was quite slow coming to the table. It was not that busy. The lentil soup I had was only warm. Food overall was not to bad, but would have expected better being a chef and brewer pub. Other pubs of the same chain have been very good I have been in.
Chris Taylor
Had to paid £2.00 for car park when had no cash .then they had changed the menu and I did not like it. Bad service I was the only person who was at the bar and and still waited about 8 minutes before I got my drinks.so had my drinks and went else where
Michael Auerbach
Lovely Bank Holiday meal in the sun seemed a great idea after a lovely stroll around adjacent botanical gardens! Ordered 2 chicken burgers which took 40 minutes before I had to chase them up! Food tasted nice but spoilt by the wait..service wasn't the best to be honest but good atsmophere there.
Christine Mckenzie
Poor service, food cold, and it was the worst that we have had in a chef and brewer, plus pay for car park, although we left in disgust and forgot to get a refund
Lee Baylis
Nice place, great food and service. Would recommend.

I sent an email to 6171greeneking on 3.7.18 I've posted here as I haven't had a reply. Is the email address still live? Nothing bounced back?
On the 1st July myself and 10 family members ate at the pub for my birthday lunch.
I'm afraid to say the whole experience ruined a rare family gathering and my birthday lunch.
The tables were dirty, uncleared and staff appeared stressed and overworked.
When food eventually arrived it was poor, often not as described or incomplete. Several meals were returned, as were two puddings.
At the time my partner did complain, and we were offered free drinks, however most declined as by that point we had all had enough and were keen to leave.
I've eaten at the pub many times over the years and this was by far the worse experience I have had here. A mobile number was provided to follow-up the complaint, but I would prefer a written response to this complaint.
I look forward to your response,
Mr. S. Conway
