Four of us visited Skof on a Saturday evening for dinner service, this was me and my wife’s first experience of Michelin Star food and we were not disappointed. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome by all the staff. As my wife has an intolerance to garlic this was noted when we booked and my friend who booked for us had a number of calls with Skof who wanted to make sure they understood this and make sure that she was catered for. We stared with a cocktail from the menu and chose the 16 course menu with 2 of us opting for one of the wine pairing menus and the 2 others going for the low alcohol option. When the food started to come it was as amazing and described to us and also the server pointed out what they had done differently for my wife to cater for her. The food was truly amazing with so many amazing dishes but for me the seafood dishes throughout were the stand out with the Scallop, Langoustine and cod being the top dishes for me. The fact we were brought up to the counter for one of the courses was fantastic and gave us a close up of what goes on in the kitchen. Our table was booked for 6:30 and we didn’t leave until 10pm, time just flew as we were taken through each course. This was a meal I will never forget made all the better by the staff who were fantastic.

We had the 16 course tasting menu at the end of February and it was immediately apparent why they recently got a Michelin star, everything was outstanding with such attention to detail. Staff were really attentive and engaging. Sitting at the pass for one course was a really nice touch and we were mesmerised by the work that goes into this delicious food! The whole menu was adapted gluten free for me and I’ve never felt as well catered for so highly recommend in that respect. This is obviously a costly experience but well worth it for a special occasion. Didn’t feel like an alienating ‘posh’ restaurant and felt completely at ease

We had the pleasure of trying the four-course lunch menu at Skof, and it was truly exceptional. The meal offered fantastic value for money, with generous portions that left us satisfied without feeling overstuffed, thanks to the light and well-balanced dishes. The service was outstanding, but what stood out most was the relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere. Unlike many overpriced restaurants in Manchester, Skof embraces a casual dress code, allowing guests to feel at ease. The choice of music was also a highlight, perfectly set at a low volume, creating an enjoyable ambiance. We already can’t wait to go again and next time we’ll be trying the tasting menu. Well done Tom and the team 😊

Brilliant. The set miso custard with chicken of the woods mushrooms and truffle is one the best things I've ever eaten. The confit chicken wing and the cod were also really special. We had one of the wine pairings, and the sommelier was particularly brilliant. He was very knowledgeable and wonderfully friendly. It's a special restaurant.

Had an absolutely outstanding 15 course tasting menu, utterly sublime 😋. Staff were amazing, as was Tom himself who we had the pleasure of talking to. I would highly recommend to anyone and as a bonus they serve a beautiful Sussex sparkling white wine.

Amazing. Had the 16 course taster menu with the wine pairing and it was just fantastic. You get to have one course sat with Tom by the kitchen and he is a genuinely nice, zero ego guy. Wish him the best of luck getting his Michelin star.

We had a fantastic evening at Skof on 28th December. The food and atmosphere were fantastic. The staff are attentive and knowledgable when presenting each dish/wine pairing. The extra touches that make Skof such a memorable experience are brilliant. Well done!
