   Whole vibe was good, wasn’t sure about the sweets in the table thing as some bits stuck out so was a little uneven and the burger was a little on the small side, however everything else was good and the food quality was good

   Beyond excited to hear AF was in Withington so had to try. The food was beautiful (eyes bigger than our bellies and ordered too much) and the staff brilliant from start to finish. We’re a family with young children so it’s hard to find these types of restaurants where you feel welcome with young children and not a nuisance.

   Service and wait was ridiculous plus they didn't have some items and no sweet menu! No sparking water or root beer

   Kids chicken burger was very plain - dry brioche plus coated chicken. No sauces were offered. Phoenix and famous burgers were great. Side dishes were huge.

   It's a beautiful building that has been sensitively branded The food and service were all spot on. Great value too. It is noisy in there but the manager was receptive to how this was an issue for the children we had with us and turned the volume down and moved our table Would 100% recommend and will be going again soon More non alcoholic beer options and some more local craft beers would be my only suggestion

    We were so excited to find out Almost Famous was opening on our doorstep and it really didn’t disappoint. We went early in the day so expected it to be quiet but it filled up nicely within the time we were sat there. Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. The food was as incredible as you expect from almost famous and we took advantage of the £5 burger deal so the value was insane but it’s not bad value without it. We’ll definitely be back, offer or no offer! Almost Famous is exactly what Withington needed!

    All round great experience! Prices are a little bit on the expensive side (where isn't thesedays?)... I think normal fries should come with burgers as standard but upgrades to dirty fries be made available.

    Amazing food/service. We used to go to AF NQ When the kids were small and it was really lovely to be able to walk to the new Withington venue. My youngest (7yrs) said “I'm dead because this burger is so Juicy!” and “In the future, there might be a better burger, but not now!”. Thanks to all the AF team who were so lovely. Really lovely atmosphere and great to see so my family. We will be back!

    Best almost famous I have ever had. Burger was done to perfect, lovely fries. The server we had was lovely, very helpful and efficient. Considering it’s just opened it looks really good. Amazing addition to withington. Good music, good vibe!
