Big announcement from Onda Pasta Bar

First we’ll get the bad news out the way. The Onda popup at The New Cross has been so popular with the people of Manchester that it’s seen a four month waiting list! As a result the team has had to make the tough decision to cancel all bookings between 28th March and 12th May. If you’re gutted by this news – and if you had a booking between these dates that’s now cancelled – don’t worry, because the team at Onda has also announced some very, very exciting news…

Onda had planned to be a popup at The New Cross until August, which is why bookings were available for diners to book for these dates. However, demand has been sooo high that the team realised they were going to need a bigger boat – or a bigger restaurant in this case. This is why they’ve been busy behind the scenes searching for a new space.

In the last few weeks, the team has found a site that has got a fully fledged restaurant in, which means they won’t have to install all the bare bones themselves (extraction, kitchen, toilets, plumbing, heating etc, etc), saving themselves a significant amount of money in the process.

So when will this new space be ready? The team’s announced that the new restaurant will be opening its doors to Manchester in May! And if you had a reservation with Onda between the dates mentioned above, you’ll be given the opportunity to book priority space at the new restaurant when it opens. Keep an eye on your emails because you’ll soon be receiving a booking link which will be open to you before anyone else before it goes public.

You can use this link to book in with Onda at its first restaurant when it opens from May onwards.

Some of the most popular hand-made fresh pasta dishes have included Scallop and Crab Cappalletti, Fettucine with Garlic Mussels, Beef Shin Campanelle, and Lumache with ‘Nduja and Vodka. If you prefer your pizza over your pasta, then try one of Onda’s pizzettas, choosing from Tomato; Garlic, Parsley and Mozzarella; Cacio E Pepe; or ‘Nduja, Mascarpone and Honey.
