I had the chicken and avocado salad arepas, so tasty and great portion! I also loved it with the guasacaca sauce, strong flavours. The empanada was so good I wish I’d ordered more, the beef was so tender. I got this as a takeaway and it was still warm and perfectly wrapped up.

I cannot believe how good this was!
Me and my girlfriend went to freight island in order to enjoy some food, especially Burgerism, because we never had it "fresh"; but always through food delivery apps.
As soon as we spoted Mia's Arepas, we got so curious about it, and after a quick chat with the owner, we were ready to give it a try.
Let me just say, this was by far one of the best decisions of my life hahaha ❤️. The arepas are absolutely DIVINE. I couldn't believe it!
I cannot think of anything else now, and I think I am officially an addict. This is my new favourite spot in Manchester.- Service

Great good but didn't like the ordering route. The food here was amazing I had a chicken area with plantain and avacado. It was ready in 15 mins but was delicious. Easily one of the best Arepa I have ever had. And halal too! My only issue was the only way to order is via a website and submitting my phone number. I can understand this is easier when busy but I ordered just after opening hours and seemed unnecessary.

This is my absolute favorite place in Manchester. I came here while visiting from the US and everyone in my family loved the food. My daughter has celiac and cannot eat gluten and this is the best meal we have had in a very long time. The arepas were so full and fresh I wish I had more time to try others. We had the chicken and the beef and both were phenomenal. We also ate empanadas and they were some of the best I’ve ever had.
Not only was the food amazing but the service might have been even better. They were so accommodating and knowledgeable about gluten allergies and ensured we had a great experience here. I can’t say enough how amazing Mia’s Arepas is and highly recommend to anyone in the Manchester area. Thank you for making our family trip even better with your delicious food!- Service

Simply unreal, being Colombian we have our own arepas and had high expectations as the last filled arepa I had was in Cartagena Colombia. Vicky’s Arepa blew me away with the freshness of the avocado salad to the the deliciously tender slow cooked meat balanced with the sweet plantain and the freshly cooked arepa. One of the best meals I’ve ever had. The meat empanada was also good.

Thanks so much for your visit, we’re glad you enjoyed the Venezuelan arepas. We hope to see you soon.
Absolutely superb food. I’ve tried a few different arepas - and whilst they’ve all been great, I think the traditional pabellón is my favourite! Good quality produce, prepared and cooked with love. Mia always has a smile on her face, and the enthusiasm she has for sharing Venezuelan cuisine with everyone is obvious. A true hidden gem in Manchester.

Absolutely fantastic Arepas. The flavours are all very present. Interesting and unique flavour combinations happening despite it being tradition Venezuelan street food. Mia is also an amazing person if you get the chance to meet her. She clearly cares about the food she cooks as well as people she is cooking for. Price is very good for the portions given (as seen in the photo). Takeaway and orders only at the moment but hopefully she manages to get some restaurant space in Manchester.Owner response
Thanks so much Samuel to visiting me and for such as nice review from you, It was a pleasure to cook authentic Venezuelan Arepas for you, I hope to get my space in Manchester very soon too.
Mia is just fabulous and her food is next level. She did the catering for a recent wedding I planned and everyone commented on how fantastic the food was. Thanks so much Mia x
