Chakalaka - Reserva de mesa

After we have tried various places to eat on a bank holiday to discover it completely booked or rude fellow workers, we have luck with our 5th attempt. it was so refreshing to be welcomed and informed, there were food available. our friends were vegan and this place had a lot of choice surprising for them! we had happy to arrive during the happy hour 2 for 1 cocktails. I chose a distinctive mojito that was made beautiful. for beginners I really wanted to taste chicken wings or the mac n cheese, but I worship bulton. When that came, it was just like the one my friend had brought back from Malawi. it was convenient to use a paper bag that offers a medium for snacks later and kitty tasty. for t...

Authentic South African flavours and excellent value for money! Our first of what will no doubt be many visits to Chakalaka was complimented by the warm hospitality of our waitress Chi, who was attentive, helpful and knew the menu in detail. The drinks were delicious and plentiful thanks to happy hour, and when the food arrived it was packed with flavour and piping hot. Genuine South African recipes well worth a try! The venue also has a great atmosphere and serves well as prime example of what Manchesters Northern Quarter has to offer! Compliments to the Chef, the bar staff and especially Chi! Thankyou so much, we will be back!

The staff at this restaurant are incredibly friendly, with the manager even remembering us from our visit six months ago. They serve large portions of traditional South African food that is full of flavor and calories. This is not the place for tiny plates of steamed vegetables; the food here is hearty and reminiscent of what the Springbok Rugby Team would eat. This restaurant is a must-visit for a relaxing and delicious evening. There are no fancy decorations, just fantastic aromas and unforgettable cocktails.

food was delish. tested the macaroni starter and lamb curry pornstar. really good food, will be back to visit. the beverage menu is good and cheap. 2for1 cocktail happy hour. think it works over five. give the amarula an attempt is like a chocolate baileys. the staff was great. really chilled, relaxed mood. parking is after 8 o'clock directly there on the oldham street (on individual yellow lines,) I think.

Such an awesome place in the NQ! Superb twist on South African cuisine with more than enough to sate both ex pats and English alike. Great drinks specials with generous and well priced meals. The maize balls and chilli bites are particularly worth an order though everything is great. Friendly and attentive service too.

Highly recommend this place, as a South African. Sixth time here and doesn’t disappoint. Both meat and veggie platters amazing. Drink selection just the same as back home!
