So happy to have discovered by chance that M&A offer such a great range of vegan options on the menu. Nothing felt like it was lame or just like a reluctant p.s on the menu. About 8 really tasty choices and my aubergine wrap was delicious. Thank you!
Quirky retro kitch best describes the style. Friendly and welcoming staff. Cosy ambiance with dimmed lights and table candles. Family friendly with facilities for small children & dogs are welcome too! Expect to stroke the lovely house dog. We were served in timely manner and enjoyed our fresh delicious fayre. Highly recommend.
This bar is a very authentic bar/restaurant which, if you are around; you should go to.
They have a wonderful selection of drinks (alcoholic and soft drinks) and with a nice foundation, which it has, it serves a great spot to stop in the local area.
We had drinks and food, both of which were good and also were complemented with a friendly atmosphere, which welcomes guests and makes you feel at home.
For starters, we had houmous which was smooth and creamy along with nice bread. Additionally, we had the salt and pepper deep fried cauliflower which was booming with flavour and in terms of cookery, it spoke to the customer a good start to what could be a great meal.
For mains, there was the aubergine burger, which is often something to be afraid of in the case of mushy aubergine which doesn't hold its shape and turns into a metaphorical mud pile of a burger. However, this burger was not that. The aubergine was crispy, and everything complemented eachother.
I had the chicken burger which was crispy and cooked well. One very important thing, that this restaurant did, was seasoning the flour which would dredge the chicken. This allowed for a very good flavour and didn't make the pickled overpower everything else.
The tacos that were served were very good, with a good balance of everything in the dish. However, there was a fair amount of residual oil left over. Along with this, the pickled cucumber could have been fresh if I were to be pedantic which meant that the dish, with a few tweaks can be a delicious dish.
Finally, a lamb wrap. This was well formulated and well executed and flavours worked well overall so no complaints there.
Overall Mary & Archie is a very good bar to stop if you are in the area; with very good service and our waitresses were absolutely lovely. The foods great, and the atmosphere aswell which makes this a good find. Also family friendly and holds quizzes on some days.

Amazing brunch! Food and coffee is great. Lovely outdoor seating and great service, would definitely recommend.
Fantastic little bar. Great selection of beers and the tapas we had was extremely tasty. Service was friendly and very good. Lovely spot in the lively area of Chorlton.
The food would have been so much better if it was hot. It was lukewarm and we didn't have enough time to ask them to heat it up as we were off to the cricket. However, the service was fab as were the staff. Great outdoors atmosphere and inside was chilled and fab too. I will definitely return and think the food was a one off as I have heard nothing but good reviews
Fab outside seating with cushions. Recommend veggie kebab flatbread with halloumi and lemoncello spritz - very unique.
I absolutely love this place! Great atmosphere and lovely service. Especially from Drew and Helen! They are an asset to this place. Breakfast was delicious. I'll be coming back 😊
We were looking for a local place for Sunday lunch and came across this place online and decided to give it a go as the reviews were excellent. It was a bonus that you do not have to book in advance, you simply turn up and it's first come first served. The beef Sunday roast was excellent! Pure perfection on a plate...generous serving of perfectly cooked meat with amazing and tasty trimmings as well. The peas, brocoli and leek were so delicious and don't get me started on the mash. They also have a great selection of beers, wine and spirits. The cherry on top? It was very reasonably priced too and we got a table straight away. We'll be back for sure!
food delicious...wine great...fair price. lively on a Friday night...a bit noisy but fun atmosphere
Great bar with good selection of beers and the food is great and good choice. They are back doing Sunday roasts and they are superb had the roast beef, cooked to perfection. Side of cauliflower cheese was amazing, it's not the cheapest but it's worth the money.
Great food and drinks, can get busy at times however you would expect that from a popular place
