The Manchester Pub

This place used to be amazing, but now literally the only good thing about it is Mack Flash Trivia on Wednesday nights. The menu is bad, with many items often not available, the service is lacking, and it is generally very dirty (especially the bathrooms).

I can’t even rate the food because it HAS NOT COME YET! I’m very hungry and have been waiting for two hours now. Outrageous. I would give it a zero if I could. I’ll update when or IF my food ever comes:/

I left the restaurant.

We've been weekly regulars here for nearly a decade, minus the pandemic. I'm not sure what's going on behind the scenes, but things are bad. The food is wildly inconsistent week to week, even in the same night the same dish came out looking different for two people at our table. That's when they even have what we'd like to order, even running out of things like chicken tenders and Jack Daniels. Service is equally as inconsistent, items are often forgotten and getting refills is a challenge. We've probably had 5 new servers in the last two months.

The bathrooms are consistently filthy and never properly restocked of soap or paper towels. The tables are so wonky they are constantly causing drinks to spill. Don't look too closely at the cracks and valleys in the tables either, because the cleanliness is highly suspect.

The only reason we keep coming back is for Mack Flash Trivia on Wednesdays and the bar recently stopped sponsoring the food vouchers as prizes. They should be counting themselves lucky he's still there because he packs the house.

Definitely not the place to go in Windsor if you’re looking to eat. Went on a Friday night. One server and only two cooks. Waited two hours for food. Some in our group didn’t even get their food.

Truly a great place to visit in Windsor. The warm and positive energy that the owner and staff cultivate make this bar one of the best small city bars in Canada. Will definitely be back next time in town. The owner truly care about his patrons and the good vibes are evident throughout.

If you want a creamy pint of Guinness while you sit back, enjoy some grub, and watch the premier league, this place is for you. By far the best spot in town to watch your team lose to a struggling Everton. The bartenders let the Guinness rest and pour it properly, while also having the knowledge to debate whether or not Callum Wilson deserves an England call up. In sum, a great place to get silly with the lads, bring your parents for dinner, or take the missus for a meal. 10/10 the best spot downtown if you’re a geezer like meself.

Excellent bar that provides British and Canadian fare and an excellent selection of draft beer. The staff is always super friendly and the food is always good and consistent. I highly recommend the Yorkshire Pudding!

Love going for Trivia on Wednesdays. Francois is the best Trivia host ever. We always stay for Karaoke after because Tenisha rocks! Food is decent. Service is good. But please, dear god, clean the ladies room! There's a cobweb that's been there since I worked there and I was on the opening crew!

Update: Cobwebs are still there. The chandelier over our table is down to one working light bulb. We are anxiously counting the minutes until we are plunged into darkness and can no longer see our answer sheet for trivia.

Update; Seriously, please clean your bathrooms better. It's pretty gross.

Me and two buddies were visiting from out of town, and we came to this place to get out of the rain on a Wednesday night.

The Manchester was BOPPING. Excellent vibes, everyone was having a great time, karaoke with lots of participation.

The bartender, Christian, was a fantastic host - made sure we were taken care of from start to finish.

Two of us ordered the dumplings off of the late night menu, and the price was unbeatable, and the dumplings were fantastic.

Will definitely come back next time I'm in Windsor.

Great food. Even better atmosphere. The servers were great I watched during the lions game and they had great energy. Definitely will come back

This place is amazing. The service was incredible, our server Christian was so much fun and we had the best experience. The pulled pork nachos are a must. SO good. Definitely stop in, especially on game day! Great atmosphere.

Amazing food and friendly owner! From the US looking for a something different to try and this was it!

This was once the crown jewel of chill places to hang out downtown. It once had great service and great food. Often winning local "best of" award. None of those things are true anymore.

I'd been going here for more than a decade, for food, drink and sports. But now if it wasn't for Mack Flash trivia on Wednesday nights, you couldn't pay me to go here.

I know post pandemic a lot of places have slipped, but it seems like they've tried hard to be the worst. Often dirty, with odd smells, the worst service in Windsor and high staff turnover.

It's routine to come in and sit at a table on Wednesday night, before trivia starts at 7 pm and sit there for 15-20 minutes without any of the 3 or 4 servers "working" to come by and take your order.

I'm not one to leave negative reviews if places, but every week it's worse. No one seems to care or make any effort to make the place even mediocre. It's really sad to see a place I used to love going to, fall so far. I'm honestly shocked the place is still open. There's a lot of better places downtown to spend your money.

Great atmosphere.
Went there for 2 for 1 deal, however the portion I received didn’t looks like 2lb of wings. I couldn’t finished 2lb of wings at loose goose, but I was hungry still after 2lb of wings here.
Even though the portion was small, the wings wee delicious. Refill of pop was slow as well.

Great spot that feels like a legit pub in the UK. Went recently for dinner and their new menu looks bomb. I had the Big Ben Burger. It was fantastic! And I’ll be going back for more great UK pub food. The ploughman’s lunch looks great.
Also had a great beer selection and my waitress was super nice.

Super cool bar, had some Euro beers available and UK pub fare, would love to go back during a EPL match

I came here 8 months ago and my experience was very pleasant. I was at Manchester earlier this week and it was certainly changed for the worst.

They’ve gotten rid of all the standard beers on draft and replaced them with IPA’s. The food was on par which is great but overall The Manchester seems like a sinking ship.

The service was fantastic.

2 stars.

This place is the best in Windsor. Christian has it all figured out, doesn’t matter whether you want food, drinks, or just a smile on your face, this place is magic.

This was an amazing British-style pub, complete with a phone booth! Great Ted Lasso vibes! The food and drinks were awesome, but the service is what made our visit excellent! So friendly, funny, and informative! This was our first stop in the city, but we will definitely be back! Family friendly! Don't miss out on this gem!

We stopped here on a rainy day to get out of the rain and have a quick bite to eat. The scotch egg was very good and my wife really enjoyed the jalapeño poppers. The bar tender was very friendly and served us our drinks very promptly. Great spot to sit and chat.

Awesome manager and staff! Come here to watch the game, great energy. Their new menu a hit, highly recommend their nachos!
