Cafe Football is going to be the place to be during the World Cup…read more Yes, it has stiff competition in the form of the nearby casino which boasts 27 screens (so I'm told), but this sports bar-cum-restaurant opened by former Manchester United team-mates Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs tops it in terms of all things related to The Beautiful Game. For a start, you're greeted by a display full of football boots the moment you enter the cafe, some of which are autographed by Ryan Giggs. The menu is divided into sections such as The Kick-Off and Terrace Food. The walls outside the toilets are signed by the owners. The walls are covered with football quotes. And so on. There was one big screen in the bar when I was there, while there were smaller screens for the more football-crazy for each of the tables and in front of the bar stools. I understand that they're planning to put more screens in place in time for the World Cup, which will probably boost the viewer to screen ratio from 8:1 to 4:1 or something along those lines. Now, I didn't try their food (mainly standard comfort fare), and it appears that they do have a fairly extensive wine and beer selection at prices you tend to get at a Westfield. I'm not too bothered by details like that when there's football on the telly.

As a proud Mancunian, and Man United fan, I've been wanting to get myself down to Cafe Football…read more(jointly owned by the legends that are Gary Neville & Ryan Giggs) since I first heard of its existence a couple of years ago. I'm happy to say, I've finally had that chance, and whilst not perfect, was definitely a great experience. I'll start off with the bad - I'd always imagined it as a standalone restaurant, but it's actually attached to the side of a huge shopping centre. A bit of snobbery on my side, I'll admit, but it does lose some of the lustre because of it. There's also a lot less memorabilia once you go in - besides a few shirts hung up near the toilets (admittedly, impressive to see those names up there), there's little to hint of the footballing pedigree of the two owners. But, onto the good - having sampled a gut-busting 3 course meal there, I can safely say the food is a drastic step up from the standard you'd usually get from your average sports bar/restaurant. I began with the chicken wings, easily the best I've ever had anywhere! They're immense, really crispy on the outside & very tender on the inside. Result! I then moved onto their version of the sausage roll - black pudding and pork, encased in a crunchy pastry and served with a side of home-made beans (mixed with pulled pork!!) I finished off with the Vimto trifle - given I believe the mighty Vimto to be the nectar of the Gods, it was always going to go down well! I meant what I said at the start, that amount of food was literally gut-busting, and I will admit I felt it the following day. But, it was totally worth it...

They show the games whilst you enjoy the food. I've been here with work for Christmas food and drinks, not one complaint. Here with my friends for curry and football and always have an enjoyable experience. The food is banging, like seriously good and I've not got a bad thing to say about, like literally cannot fault it. The staff are top too. So it might not have white table linen and flowers on the tables, but for authentic cracking Indian food, and a good time, this is the place to go!!

When, after 20 or so minutes I got up to find out if we were ever going to be served, we got the obligatory excuse but someone quickly came and took our order. The food and drinks came. I had ordered chicken strips and the tomato soup. The strips were hot and tasty. The tomato soup left a lot to be desired. It was very watery with no tomato chunks or any herbs that you could see or taste. The people sitting across from us didn't get what they ordered. For the price, I'd say if you don't have to be there, find somewhere else.
