We visited Albert Schloss for our works Christmas meal recently having booked in advance. When we arrived our table wasn't ready and we were urged to get a drink at the bar which at 3pm in the afternoon was so overcrowded it was ridiculous and inaccessible. Eventually we were seated right on the edge of an area of people standing and drinking right over our shoulders. The place was far too busy and overcrowded to a point where a number of us commented on what the safe capacity of the place actually was...as it had surely gone over that amount. The food was fine, nothing unbelievable, average but not bad value. Service from our waiter was very good and they also took the time to be very attentive to one of our diners who is coeliac. The toilets here are a disgrace. Obviously I can only speak for the mens but there isn't a tenth of the toilets required for the amount of people...one of the toilet bowls was overflowing with vomit... urine all over the floors, more what you would expect at 3am in a dingy club toilet, not a restaurant/bar in Manchester at 3pm. The amount of people probably ruined it in the end but the service and food were fine.
