"Lunch at Trafford College's Aspire Restaurant was a most pleasant experience. I was part of a large party that enjoyed an excellent Christmas lunch which you would never have guessed was cooked by students. The starters were excellent. I enjoyed Mackerel on a bed of beetroot whoever put the beetroot together will go far in my estimation. The fish was cooked perfectly and it was well presented. Other starters (Mushroom soup, Goat's cheese tart to name but two) were well received by my fellow diners. I went traditional and opted for the Turkey well presented, cooked just how I like it and truly delicious. I got similar feedback from the pork mains and other options. My Christmas pudding was tasty and quite the ticket! Other desserts were equally well received. So do yourself a favour and check it out you might just be as pleased as I am!"

Went here today and it was brilliant! Lovely, professional, calm restaurant, clean and well presented, great service, outstanding food (and yet insanely cheap for what it is) and loads of parking. Would definitely recommend!

Food as always was excellent, I would recommend the lamb although those who had the fish 3 ways said it was excellent. The setting I'd good very good value for money The students on the night were very good , lead by John and his team . Always worth a visit.

Lovely and clean but the room would have benefited from table cloths. The waiters were not very attentive. We had to draw the attention of the lady in charge on two occasions. We do realise this is a training restaurant and we are only pointing out these items as a training guide. This did not distract from the lovely food. View menu

I was treated to lunch at Aspire after a business meeting and was thoroughly impressed with both the standard of the food (chicken in a tarragon sauce was particularly delicious) and the attentive service from the catering students. They’re a credit to the college and promise great things for the future of the hospitality industry!

First class food and service. I have taken our PROBUS Group to ASPIRE for the last 7 years. The standard of food and service has remained high and the satisfaction of our members is unanimous. It is a lovely top floor restaurant, with lifts and disabled access. The feedback from my members is positive year on year hence the repeat business.

Just back from a lovely themed night at Aspire Restaurant at Traffordd College fabulous value and great food. Really good prices for quality drinks too. We had a 3 course meal with additional appetisers on arrival and coffee with a sweet treat at the end and 2 alcoholic drinks each including their fabulous award winning Rhubard Gin Cocktail (delicious) All in it came to £50.20 for the 2 of us plus of course we left service on top of that. So pleased to have revisited and looking forward to more meals there going forwards. Well done Aspire! View menu

I have been to the Aspire Restaurant at Trafford College for tea a few times now and I have never been disappointed. The front of house students are always polite and very attentive throughout the night, often checking if everything is okay with your food or if you need anything/ would like another drink. The food cooked by the students is always great quality and is presented to an exceptional standard you literally feel like you're eating in a Michelin star restaurant but without the expensive prices. I honestly can't fault this place. If you haven't already paid a visit then you definitely should.

So this restaurant is staffed by the college students including waiting on and food Preparation but do not think this is going to be some mediocre canteen food! It is excellent fine dining. The young people are attentive and knowledgeable. Ok there is the odd over enthusiastic moment with the service but give these students a chance to impress you, everyone needs a break and this is a fantastic idea to expose the students to a real life situation. Menu was a choice of 4 for each course. All beautifully presented and great flavours. Very reasonable £18.50 and a full bar options with 10 or so wines also reasonably priced
