• Barbecue • Failsworth
Booked 2 times today
In 2016 the Old School BBQ was born, using a freshly imported 1982 Bluebird International American school bus from Arizona as a mobile kitchen.The bus was converted from a traditional seated bus to a fully functional kitchen, with smokers and griddles to cook low and slow BBQ food.  The OSB journey had begun, trading from humble beginnings on a local pub car park in Failsworth. Our little yellow bus soon became a familiar landmark and we became more and more popular with lunch goers who wanted freshly prepared, appetising food served with a smile.  Soon demand meant that we would be more often than not greeting our customers with a "sold out" sign, so it was time to expand.So here we are, with a covered seated area serving our firm favourites, complemented with a fully licenced bar and WC facilities... did we mention the stage?  That's right, we also provide live music from various acts from near and far - we are sure you will find our eatery to be like no other!

    Very attentive from the minute we walked in to the restaurant. Head waiter took the time to explain dishes in detail and make recommendations. Food was delicious. I made reference to a birthday celebration which was picked up and birthday banners placed above our table - a nice touch. Definitely recommend trying g this lovely restaurant

    Cressida has done a phenomenal job with Ego Death. The journey down to the bar is a bit of fun and when you enter the bar properly it really feels like you’ve been transported to an intimate and impeccably designed speak easy. You can forget the world you’ve left outside. The team are friendly, inviting and knowledgable. Really impressive. Elliot especially was absolutely fantastic and was happy to chat with us, talk us through the menu and various drinks. The drinks were very well priced and some of the best cocktails my husband and I have ever had. We only meant to stay for one maybe two drinks - we ended up staying for hours. We would highly recommend visiting and we will absolutely be back!

    This is our 4th time with Erst and it’s become our favourite place to dine in Manchester. The menu changes with the seasons but keeps a few of the favourites all year round so we’re always able to order the anchovies, flatbread and beetroot ajo blanco along side discovering something new to rave on about until the next time we join them Last night was the second time we were served by Louie (I’m sorry if that’s not spelt correctly!) who remembered us from a year prior. He authentically and enthusiastically provides the best service we’ve ever experienced in any establishment. His warm, light and knowledgeable approach makes dining with any dietary requirements fun and exciting (which never happens, ever.) Couldn’t recommend erst more!
