Pier Eight Restaurant & Bar in Salford

Really great restaurant attached to the Lowry Theatre in Salford. We had purchased the VIP package with some theatre tickets and it's really sad with every penny! You get a glass of prosecco on arrival, three courses of food (you choose from a menu), a bottle of wine to share between two of you and a hot drink to finish. You can either have everything before the meal or save a glass of wine/your dessert for the interval. The food was delicious and the service was excellent, would definitely recommend!

A really nice way to spend a couple of hours before a show. Top class food, wine and service. And you can retreat to your table during the interval where dessert, hot drinks and any left over wine are waiting for you.

Very limited menue. Mains was 4 options chicken, trout and two veggie options. Service was quick and the food was very good.Theres plenty of other restaurants around offering far more choice and just as quick service.

Lovely restaurant, with nice atmosphere, friendly attentive staff. Food on the face of it looks like you don't get enough, but the meals are deceptive and there is certainly enough to eat. The quality of the food and the presentation is superb. It is expensive, especially when you start adding extras and wine etc, but for a special occasion before a good show it is a great place to eat.Certainly would recommend.

We booked here for our first anniversary dinner, having got married at the lowry a year ago. We booked 7 weeks ahead of the date. We got an email just over a week before our booking to say due to an admin error they couldn't honour our booking as there is a private event taking place across the lowry. They did offer to seat us in the bar with a free bottle of wine, but the menu is snacks and not appropriate for the occasion. This is really disappointing, as the food was excellent when we ate here before.

Food is out of this world but not cheap but as they say you get what you pay for

Meal was OK but a little bland. They need to season their dishes better, the ham hock croquet was disappointing but the fish main was much nicer.Service was good and it is ideal for a pre theatre meal but it just needs to up its game to make it worth another visit.

Great place to eat and drink before going to the theatre next door. Choice of restaurant or bar meals, both looking very inviting.We went for the bar option, couple of side orders and 2 mains, all very nice and not long to wait either. The staff were very friendly and helpful as well, good night out.

Was treated to afternoon tea by my daughter who lives in New Zealand for myself, my eldest daughter and her two sons for mothers day yesterday. Was not impressed with the service at all. Firstly we were shown to our table and just left there! We eventually called someone over who asked what drinks we would like. When the coffees and teas eventually arrived I turned my cup over from the saucer and it was badly stained. Then waited ages again for a clean cup and fresh coffee to be brought which I drunk in two goes. Asked for more coffee which was not forthcoming so asked again for a pot which is what you usually get with afternoon tea! When the sandwiches cakes and scones arrived I was not impressed with the selection especially the boys choices of dry cheese or ham sandwiches - thought there would have been more choice - maybe egg and tuna. Ive told my daughter in New Zealand that it was lovely as I didn't want to upset her especially as I know it would have cost her a small fortune and nothing she could really do all that way away. Definitely would not go again or recommend this restaurant to anyone. I dont think you had enough staff working although I must mention one member if staff called Adam who tried his best to accommodate us and get things moving along

Lovely restaurant at the Lowry. Great location. Delicious food and an extensive selection of drinks. Plenty of outside seating, great place to sit outside and enjoy the views on a summer's day Great place to chill out 👍👍👍👍
