About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Lively
  • Good for special occasions
Dukes 92 was originally a stable block for the horses delivering foods off barges to the Merchants warehouse opposite. From these humble begininngs the building now houses Manchester's original bar and grill which has been refurbished and extended three times since its opening in 1991 the space today is informal and airy with the buildings heritage being reflected in a subtle blend of antique furniture and modern fixed seating.
With its most recent refurbishment Dukes can now properly call itself a venue with two bars, three private events spaces, a grill restaurant, excellent smoking facilities, canalside terrace and balcony overlooking the canal basin. Dukes continued appeal relies on its ability to transform from a relaxed, family friendly environment by day to a vibrant and stylish bar and grill by night.
The space has been extended and refurbished since its opening in 1991 and inside its interior combines contemporary features and its trademark antique furniture.

    Pros- Can’t fault the food or service, our waiter was attentive. Cons - the noise level was ridiculously loud. I get that it’s a young crowd vibe but the sheer amount of people was intimidating. A flight broke out between 2 young women feet away from our table and diners had to help break it up as no security were around to help until the event was over. Not what you want when you’re eating out.

    Hello Annmarie, Thank you for your feedback. I'm really pleased you enjoyed the food and service from your waitor. We are very sorry for the incident that occured from two other guests within our venue - we ensured security who were monitoring all aspects of the venue were swiftly brought over to de-escelate the issues. We certainly have a lot to take away from a very sunny and busy day to ensure much improvement in the future. Safety of our guests and staff is something we take seriously, always. Thank you for your comments, we will condsider them well. Best wishes - Team Management

    We came for Saturday lunch, ate inside. We had the smashed burger, the Korean chicken burger (both with fries) and the tofu ramen - the food was delicious. Plus 2 large glasses of wine and a pint. Bill came to £73 inc service which we thought was very reasonable. Our waitress was really friendly and at the end of the meal she brought us 2 free brownies as a surprise for the 2 of us who were celebrating our birthdays - this was a really nice touch. The place was quite busy outside with some larger groups inside too, good atmosphere. It’s clear that they needed a few more staff to cater for the volume of customers but all the staff were doing their best.

    Hello Mark, Thank you so much for your review and feedback. We're really pleased to hear the positive notes from your recent visit. We did get a little surprise yesterday morning with what should have been a very rainy day turning out rather warm and pleasant - This did cause a few staffing issues which we will be sure to improve for the future. Best Wishes - Team Dukes

    Sunday 16 March we had the best Sunday lunch! We were rather boring and all had the roast beef - turned out to be a top choice. It was served nice & pink with fluffy Yorkshires and plenty of real gravy. Great Horseradish sauce too. We also treated ourselves to chocolate orange cheesecake and the sharing white chocolate profiteroles with pistachio & raspberry coulis - both delicious. Service staff were efficient and pleasant. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and look forward to visiting again.

    Top food decent atmosphere able to talk and eat. Good surroundings. Reasonable prices about 13-16 for normal mains, £26 for steak. Main + desert for two plus one just main and 3 drinks £33 a head (including a steak so if you had 2 drinks it'd be similar
