Chillz Restaurant Bar and Lounge
About This Spot
Stepping into Chillz Restaurant Bar and Lounge on Chapel Street, you’re gently enveloped by a welcoming energy that blends the warmth of a close-knit gathering with the subtle hum of a lively evening. It’s a place that feels simultaneously inviting and vibrant—a spot where the city’s rhythm slows just enough to savor moments with friends or unwind after a busy day. The atmosphere balances the buzz of a well-loved night spot with the ease of familiarity, where every corner seems to invite you in for a meaningful pause.
The interior is thoughtfully crafted to create a relaxed yet spirited backdrop, with soft lighting and carefully curated music that never overwhelms but rather pulses alongside the contagious smiles of the staff and patrons. There’s a casual sophistication here, where the mood flows naturally from upbeat late afternoons into deep, intimate nights.
At Chillz, the experience is truly shaped around connection—whether it’s through sharing plates rich with comforting West African flavors or raising a glass to toast new memories. The menu offers dishes that resonate with heritage and freshness, each bite unfolding with just the right balance of spice and soul. The food invites unhurried enjoyment: the comforting aroma of freshly cooked jollof, the crispness of fried yams paired with vibrant salads, or the satisfying warmth of pounded yam alongside richly spiced soups. It’s a culinary invitation to sit back, savor slowly, and feel at home.
The heartbeat of Chillz is found in its people. The staff's genuine attentiveness adds a quietly exceptional layer to the evening—friendly, familiar, yet always respectful of your space. This care extends beyond the plate, weaving a subtle intimacy into the experience that keeps visitors returning, whether they’re locals or exploring Manchester’s diverse food scene for the first time.
Beyond just being a restaurant, Chillz pulses with the city’s multicultural spirit and a welcoming vibe that lingers long after your visit. Whether drawn by the flavorful dishes or the easy camaraderie in the air, patrons find themselves not just enjoying a meal, but joining a vibrant, warm community.

While visiting Manchester from Canada, I went to Chilliz on a friend’s recommendation. Hands down, it’s the best bar and restaurant in Manchester—and trust me, I tried many. The food was excellent, the desserts were outstanding, and the service was truly top-notch.

The food here is amazing! The jollof rice was especially great, full of flavour and perfectly cooked. The puff puff delight was excellent — soft, fresh, and absolutely delicious. Special shoutout to Oyinda for her great customer service; she was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back!

This is the best African restaurant and night scene location in Manchester in my opinion. Great food, friendly staff, great music, lovely interior and great night vibes. Never disappointed when I’m there. I always go for the Suya, pepper soup and Ayamase. I tasted my mums Fried rice too and that was very nice also! I’ll be ordering it next time I visit.
