I've been here twice and both times the food has been awesome. Today I had a burrito, and I could choose the different ingredients that would go into it, including even cactus !

Chicken burrito with all the fillings was insane, I'd come back from Cornwall just for one of these. The Mexican cola was great as well, we can't get them in cornwall but I'm going to try and get them online somewhere. So much choice on this place and all very reasonably priced. Absolutely fantastic

This was one of the days where I was really hungry and popped into the Arndale market looking for some food. I have heard fables of this amazing Mexican place and thought now would be a good time to try , and boy oh boy wasn’t I right The food was amazing with great taste and the sauces and the quantity never ceases to disappoint you. If you want to fill your tummy in for a quick 10 quid , this is the place for you !

They are the most authentic in the town. Their burritos are very tasty and have good spice levels.

Great food the large burritos are really large, had those once but second time i opted for kids size... They really are loaded. Really liked the slow cooked beef the first time i went second time had chicken, be good if they did kids size but with diffrent filling options meat wise the big ones are just too big for some of us

Panchos is the best burrito in Manchester with no exception. If you in Manchester this is an essential staple. a great selection of mexican food that is good value and super tasty. you wont be disapointed if you eat here. Friendly staff, good beer, awesome food and a good location make this the best burrito ive ever had. A true Mancunian legend!

So many options that are both fresh and tasty! I got the small size which was the perfect size for lunch without feeling like I was blocking myself Loved that you could choose 5 add-ins rather than the usual ones and pay extra for guac... Highly recommend!

Excellent burritos. The portion size for the price is great and the standard is very consistent. There are lots of options for customisation. The service is acceptable and seating is a bit of an issue at busy times, but that is not within their control. That said I would happily stand to enjoy a panchos burrito. There is also a range of Mexican drinks and bottled sauces which have been great when we have tried them.
