Today, May 12th, 2024, I enjoyed breakfast at The Refuge (Kimpton Clock Tower), where Georgia provided exceptional customer service. Her attentive care went above and beyond, ensuring a delightful experience.

If you want an outstanding Sunday lunch then look no further than The Refuge. Amazing experience and the food was outstanding. The Sunday roast is one of the best we have ever had. The ambience and stunning dining room makes the whole experience outstanding. A massive call out to Denisa who gave us amazing service.

My friend and I popped into The Refuge for a glass of wine, and I gotta say, it was a vibe! The place had such a pretty atmosphere, like stepping into a cozy oasis in the middle of Manchester. The staff were welcoming, which really added to the experience. Plus they are dog friendly!

Dined here for my birthday and it was great! Very relaxed vibes with lovely architecture & decor. Food is served as small plates for sharing, we got 7 between 3 of us plus some pitta with hummus and we were stuffed. The dishes are small but flavoursome and gave a fine dining feel. Would love to go back & try some more of the food. The bar bit looked perfect for a date night!

The building is huge. Whilst it was quieter on a Sunday evening, there was still a great atmosphere. We took a table of 6 for their roast menu. The 5 carnivores were beaten by the huge platter of roast meats, cauliflower cheese and roast potatoes. The meat was excellent, the food was delicious. Our vegetation guest had the veggie alternative which was also good plus the potatoes, cauliflower cheese and more.
The restaurant had a good selection of wines and beers. The service was prompt and friendly.

We have a new favourite restaurant for Sunday lunch, I think! Set in a huge converted insurance hall which oozes character, The Refuge has plenty of space for diners to relax and enjoy their meals. And enjoy it we did. We ordered the Sunday Roast platter for two which had thick slices of tender and tasty beef and pork and a half chicken. Plentiful roasties (though we ordered some extra as well), veggies, cauliflower cheese and a lovely gravy rounded it off. By the end we were glad we skipped the starters. Very highly recommended and we will definitely be back.

Wonderful ambience. The menu is limited but the food is very flavoursome. Definitely try the sourdough bread with the tapas-like main course. The service is very good with an extremely friendly staff.
