Great vibe in the place plus German beer and steak and frites for under £8,well worth paying a visit
I visited here, and was having difficulty hearing my waitress. Bless her, she went and got a megaphone to take my order. Most restaurant don't care, but at Man Bites Frog they went the extra mile. Thanks guys, you are the best!!!
Carnt fault this place , friendly staff cool decor , food is amazing for a bar restaurant , winner winner
We had a lovely meal -really tasty, fresh food which looked amazing. The staff were so friendly and helpful and a great atmosphere too- in a quirky bar. Will definitely return.
Absolutely love this place. It’s been my local for over a year (moved away, otherwise it’ll still would be) and each and every time again amazed by the quality of the service and the food. Hidden little gem, good stuff, good people, good vibe!
Busted my shoulder this evening so need a stiff drink for the pain. The staff were very kind and gave me an electric massarger to help. Can't remember ever being treated as well �. muchas gracias
We had a lovely meal here, friendly staff, good food in a nice relaxed environment
Best Sunday lunch around.
Homemade horseradish capped it all off. Can't wait to go back. Everything was full of flavour from the red cabbage to the gratin. Perfect
Loved the name, the music and food - could have bought a few more steaks but I'd go back just for the baked camembert! Worth every penny
Great food, friendly staff. This place is the business!
Amazing!! My brother held a small gathering here yesterday which I attended. The service was outstanding - after I was unknowingly and accidentally overcharged for a round of drinks (I would have been non the wiser but for the Bar girl’s honesty) I was then made aware and charged less for my next round. To top it all off, the Sea Bass Roast dinner that I ordered, requesting Yorkshire’s and gravy “like an actual Roast but with Fish” was absolutely DELICIOUS!! Thanks so much guys! I shall definitely be back!

Top Notch! Highly recommend. Lovely atmosphere and great food and drinks service was brilliant too. Thanks a lot
Our new favourite place. Food is delicious and authentic French cuisine with interesting little twists and there are regular new additions to the menu to keep us coming back. Always a warm welcome and a pleasant ambiance. Love it!

Just had a great night at MBF, dinner and comedy evening was brilliant. Both comedians where hilarious, I love Troy Hawke and can’t believe we have such an amazing event right on our doorstep!!! Where else can you get lovely home made food and top notch comedy, a 5minute walk from your front door on a Monday evening. Well done guys
Wow! Amazing food, amazing atmosphere, amazing service...can't wait to eat my way through the menu. Bravo!
A really nice french styled restaurant (or bar). Reminds me of a brasserie with good food, drinks and atmosphere. It's got a beer garden out front and back, a babyfoot (table football) and service is friendly. The food menu looks a little over elaborate (miso sauces and emulsions) however the chef does it justice and pulls off the flavours well. Steak frites is also available and a lovely generous portion is provided. It's relaxed and a lovely place for a meal. Cosy.

Yet another 5-star restaurant. This french inspired restaurant packed a punch, with its rich flavours and relaxed atmosphere with lovely staff. For my main I had the Stake-fritas with the mushroom sauce. For the steak I asked for medium-rare, it was on the rarer side, but I don't mind that. The mushroom sauce that came with it was a really nice touch and it was a pleasant surprise that the sauce wasn't as rich as the other sauces I had and didn't overpower the core flavours that the steak had to offer, the fries were good and seasoned well. We also had the Black lentil almond dahl with crispy tofu. This was presented well, but I didn't taste it, but they said it was incredible. We also had the fish (monk fish) again was presented well, but didn't taste, and yet again they said it was outstanding. Finally for the mains we had the Braised short rib, this was tender and was like butter in your mouth, and the aligote potatoes were done to perfection, with strong notes of garlic and cheese as there should be. For the desserts, we had a try of all the deserts put together, starting with the rice pudding with drunken fruit. This was warm and very comforting, it really made you feel like you were at home. The. The bruléed bananas with the ice cream and sauce really hit the sweet spot, the texture was perfect and was very satisfying. Finally we had the Chocolate Orange mousse which was very rich and smooth with perfect hits of orange. All of the meals were close to perfect and the atmosphere was amazing, with great music taste and the laid back vibes really makes you relax and enjoy the great food they serve there. The refined menu gave a classy edge to the place, and if you want brilliant authentic french food COME HERE.

Delicious jack fruit shawarma. Rosemary salted french fries were also divine. Definitely be returning
Popped in for a quick bite at lunch time, nice selection of drinks, very limited food menu. Opted for the burger, which was an absolute surprise, basically it was wonderful. It may be small but it packs a punch, I could have eaten several. Not somewhere I'd go for an evening dinner, but for lunch , excellent.
A true gem of a place.
The staff are bloody lovely, knowledgeable and great at recommending dishes or drinks to compliment the food. It's a really relaxed place, the music is great and the food delicious. On the few times I've visited recently its felt cosy, welcoming and homely.
I would highly recommend.
Always great to visit here. Not been for a while and the food menu has changed significantly. We had the burgers which were delicious. The cosy atmosphere in doors is perfect when the night gets a bit darker.
The food is excellent, great drinks, lovely staff and the outdoor space at the back is perfect for an afternoon drink in the sun or shade.
Great little bar. Definite focus on quality with better beers and wines than you’d expect for the price / location. Eclectic decor with a great Sopranos mural in the back. Very friendly staff. Sunday roasts are the best in Chorlton. Definitely recommend a potion of their chips to snack on.
I stumbled into man by frog by accident and what a wonderful accident it was! Lovely Liv with curly hair welcomed me in and served me the most delicious cold pint in all of Chorlton! Will be back! 100/10
We booked some tables outside the back for a party last weekend and we can’t say enough good things about this place. Dave was great, the staff were great and the service was flawless. Gorgeous atmosphere, accommodating, welcoming. 10/10
I can’t recommend this place enough! I came a couple of days back after It was suggested to me by a co worker for its relaxed and welcoming atmosphere and it didn’t disappoint! The staff were very friendly and engaging, in particularly a curly brown haired lass though I’ve forgotten her name (apologies!), I was informed that the Sundays roasts here are also a must try so I look forward to returning to try one with my other half.

A warm and welcoming atmosphere. I had the best meal I've had in a very long time. Service was 5 star and the food was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. Great wine. Definitely recommended. I will be taking family and friends here again.
Our Sunday roast was a long time arriving due to a "technical issue", but was very tasty, albeit a bit salty for the liking of my party. The outdoor seating was very relaxed and the staff very friendly and informal. Would possibly return again if they do have a greater menu choice during the week.
Came in a couple of times now, this time we had Sunday lunch. All I can say is I used to be a chef, and this was one of the best Sunday lunches I've had for a long time! Modern yet still holds all the flavour of a traditional Sunday roast! Superb! Place was awesome too with a really cool seating area at the back. Great staff, great food, great place.
Superb, I don't give many 5 stars.
The food here is excellent from the main menu, to Sunday Roast, to a cheeky bowl of frogs legs. The flavours are fantastic in what is such an unassuming bar. Food prices somewhat reflect this, but you are buying quality. Decor is quirky without being kitsch, and there's a good atmosphere here.
The rear garden space is well decorated as a little bolt hole round the back and a surprising little addition.
Really nice place to get some drinks and the staff are friendly and helpful. There's in door seating and outdoor seating towards the back, which is partly covered with a canvas shelter. There's also electric heaters and unlike other heaters these actually keep you warm. If anything there like looking at a nuclear bomb detonation - but you soon get quite accustomed to it.
PROS
- Decent outdoor space
- Wide range of drinks available
- Dogs are welcome (not sure indoors but definitely at the outdoor seating at the back)
- Food is nice
CONS
- Not a lot of vegetarian or vegan options available, except for a couple of starters and fries.
Went in for food knowing nothing about this place and was blown away! Such friendly and helpful staff, FANTASTIC food, charming decoration. Food not cheap, definitely restaurant rather than bar prices, but it's properly great. Menu is short, which I usually take to be a sign of a good chef and fresh ingredients! Big portions, absolutely delicious and non-greasy. Definitely going back.
