The Rivals Bar Restaurant - Manchester

Hidden gem. what a beautiful restaurant. the first time, four of us. there was a show in the theater. the restaurant was quiet as a follow. has not spoiled our experience. very nice menu. basic prices for restaurant in the city center. very friendly staff. look forward to going back.

Beautiful staff very courteous when it is late to see with a theatre production. eat excellent nothing to complain.

Nice eating, nice personal and good decor/ample. had a fab pre theater meal.

Good place for an appetizer. excellent selection of food and wine

I always love dining at The Rivals before the theatre but on this occasion the food was quite mediocre both of our mains were luke warm and the chips arrived after my partner had finished his main and I'd almost finished mine. We didn't complain because we were on a time limit as the play was about to start. Also, there's so much on the menu these days that isn't included in the set menu cost that it feels a bit odd that it's a set menu.
