"Extremely stylish, but relaxed place. They serve excellent food at very reasonable prices - you'll find it near impossible to spend more than a fiver on a main course, which can't be bad."
Manchester Evening News
"A welcome relief from all the nearby tacky theme bars. The minimalist interior boasts stripped floorboards, understated colour scheme and plenty of seating over two floors. Good selection of beer and reasonable, well-priced food."
City Life
"Surprisingly devoid of students, despite it being a bottle-throw from the Union, and surrounded by University buildings. Kro (Danish for Drinking Establishment) tries hard to be two different things and manages to succeed. Downstairs is a clean metallic look; simple and cool, whilst upstairs is homely with large couches, bare wood tables, high ceilings. The perfect place to meet large groups of friends and discuss random thoughts."
Manchester After Dark
"All in all, Kro Bar is definitely the place to splash out for lunch. Its appeal lies in the allure of refinement rather than the essentially functional competitors nearby�"
Guardian
"Storming new bar with great beers, draught and bottled, plus great-value food."
Virgin Trains Magazine
"Kro is happy to purvey a good selection of beers and honest, good-value food (burritos and the like for around �3) within a minimalist, understated interior and, apart from the bar area, spacious surroundings. If this is the way the Kro flies, it should have no problems taking off."
City Life
"A combination of cutting edge style and cask beer are all too rare on Manchester's burgeoning caf� bar scene. However, the oddly-named Kro Bar, 325 Oxford Road manages to combine the two with a degree of aplomb all too rarely seen nowadays."
C.A.M.R.A
"... the place was owned for almost 100 years by the Manchester branch of the Temperance Society... The abstainers wouldn't appreciate the huge range of British and foreign beers - including Bombadier, Hydes, Becks, Budvar, Heineken, Hoegaarden, Kirin, Krombacher, Kronenburg and Stella - and the well-chosen wine list, but everyone else seems to."
