"My family and friends went on Sat 3rd Feb 23 for my birthday meal, expecting it to be very good but it wasn’t. In fact the food was very poor, garlic mushrooms lukewarm and in a bland sauce, soup was lukewarm and very bland, now for the mains, we asked for steak medium rare but it came medium well and it looked and tasted like a frozen beef grill steak, the sea bass was cold and dry, the breaded haddock was so well done it was hard, steak and mushroom pie was bland, salty and the pastry was so hard it was inedible, the choc brownie was very plain, and also the Sticky toffee pudding was just like chocolate cake with toffee sauce poured over. We had already sent back the sea bass and when asked if everything was ok one person said no but nothing was done . So when we received the huge bill my husband and I complained but the mangeress just said why didn’t you tell the staff, I asked for her to take off some food off the bill but she only took off the sea bass and declined to even take off a round of drinks or starters!! I had to apologise to everyone for the poor food, it spoilt the evening and when you pay a lot of money to expect good food it’s very disappointing and upsetting. We didn’t sleep properly all weekend worrying about it , we definitely will not be going again. We dread to think what a wedding is like there!!"

We were attending a friends sons 18th birthday . The food was very mediocre and then fell short . The canapes were taking forever. I was feeling sorry for the hosts who had paid a fortune for the party . Never coming back here .

Average experience after not being to the crown for a couple years. The menu is very limited with very basics meals. The chicken Skewer is £16 for 5 small pieces of chicken and a handful of chips, definitely not value for money.

Spotless premises, nice atmosphere on entering, lovely friendly staff, 3 fantastic meals paired with lovely wine nice glasses) and piping hot latte and teas. Staff actually remembered the request for water for the table which is a rarity. Highly recommend.

Atmosphere was good but food average. Garlic mushrooms were like warm. Beef stroganoff was nice but meat was a little tuff and not enough sauce so dry. Dessert was jam roll poly and custard, this was the best out of what I ordered. Couldn’t fault the service.

Well what a find! Wonderful pub, with lovely atmosphere, very helpful, friendly and polite staff. The food was really nice, especially the steak and ale pies, the chocolate fudge desert and the chocolate and raspberry tart. Definitely be returning in the future and can highly recommend it.

As well as having an excellent restaurant with a great menu The Crown also has an outstanding function room. The room is very well presented and is spotlessly clean They set the room out to suit whatever type of event you are having, such as weddings, birthdays or even a wake and they offer some really nice buffets as well as special menus. The staff are very warm and friendly and they provide all the help that you need to arrange your day.

"Alborz is a wonderful hidden gem in Levenshulme that serves a variety of Persian and Middle-Eastern food, located on Stockport Rd you could be forgiven for thinking that Alborz is as unassuming as it's humble exterior suggests. However, what lies behind those modest doors is truly fantastic restaurant both in terms of food and service. The interior is understated and tasteful, furnished with Persian vases and ornate tea sets, the tables are close together to make the most of the limited space available but this lends a refreshing communal atmosphere to your meal. The staff were friendly and attentive and more than happy to talk you through the menu and explain the various dishes. We ordered the Mezze Platter to start, this consists of four different starters, and is ideal if you're not overly familiar with Persian cuisine, the homemade hummus was a particular highlight being both fresh and tasty. We then ordered the Alborz special grill for two, which looks as wonderful as it tastes, succulent skewers of koobideh and chicken accompanied by grilled vegetables, saffron rice and a freshly baked taltoon bread which was frankly quite ridiculous in its magnificence and is so large it came supplied with its own stand. This was a true delight to eat and I can highly recommend it. After all of that, we were overloaded with food and couldn't possibly consider having dessert and so, asked for the bill, which led to true surprise of the evening, all of this wonderfully authentic and fresh food came to a grand total of £42. This reflects tremendous value in a time where a meal for two can often prove quite expensive. Overall I would say that Alborz is definitely worth visiting if you're in the area and if you're not well then it's worth making the trip for. If you're a fan of Persian food or perhaps want to try something new then you would genuinely struggle to find such a quality dining experience at this price point."
