In reply to Siward: Not sure if Akbars is open in the afternoon. If you don't mind a small walk, the Marble Arch is just out of town past the Coop building and serves very good pub grub as well as being "the" real Ale pub in Manchester village.
Failing that, I would do something like Wagamama or similar. At least you know you aren't going to get utter pish.
