Baked delights in Manchester

“A lovely corner store filled with gourmet treasures just waiting to be explored. Fresh bread and pastries (important from France and cooked throughout the day), dairy products, cheeses and savoury snacks are all available as are biscuits, treats, condiments, jams and lots of wine and beer choices. There's an array of luxury choices to enhance a picnic or even your weekly shop. Hampers are available. It's an Aladdin's cave of food and drink.”

“We dropped in for lunch today and were not disappointed. The decor is welcoming and tasteful, the service friendly and cheerful and the food delicious! The menu was great and the drinks choice was plentiful. I loved the fact that you could have a half sandwich along with a bowl of delicious homemade soup, and my husband totally enjoyed his homemade cheese and onion pie. This place is definitely worth a visit.”

“I have only visited this establishment the once. I was passing and needed a drink. But I also purchased some food. They do have a wide range of good quality products. Which the very friendly staff are more than willing to help and give advice about.”

“First time, as good as I've been told. So delicious. Burek and Samoon was top tier.”

“After my first time to patronage this cafe in Prestwich, I came to this shop again for having the breakfast. I ordered light breakfast last time while I ordered full this time. Food is yummy with good price. I love this cafe as its like a family-operated shop with warm and friendly atmosphere.”

“Lovely coffee and the sandwiches were delicious. Great selection of cakes that are delicious too. Lovely staff who served us. Highly recommend, well worth a visit.”

“Wray's is great. All of the food I have tried so far is excellent as are the drinks and sweets. The service and atmosphere however is something else. Such a welcoming place.”

“We’ve been coming to Cocoa Tree for a number of years. It’s a nice little independent shop smelling like a sweet dream. The coffee and cakes are always fresh and delicious with smiley and welcoming staff. It’s always nice to see Mariana and have a chat and a giggle. This little gem worth a visit if you’re in the area or passing by.”

“Serendipitea is our local! Birthdays, anniversaries or just any excuse for a Gathering Of The Clans - we're here! This isn't just a café, it's a proper community hub. The food is fantastic quality, the staff are lovely and they take pride in serving their community and giving back. They DO cater for veggies/vegans/allergy sufferers - but their sausages are EPIC! If your dog is well-behaved, they're welcome too.”

“I totally disagree with the comment below. It's a lovely cafe with great food and very accommodating, friendly staff.”

“Excellent, friendly service! Came for a red velvet cookie dough. Out of this world! Will definitely be back again. Thank you so much ::))”

“I've been here tens of times for takeaway grilled cheese sandwiches, but I have never tried the wings. Honestly, the honey and sesame chicken wings are the best wings I ever had! From how they looked and of course they tasted, it was an extremely pleasant experience and I would recommend them to anyone! Of course, the atmosphere and the service was top-notch as always!”

“Great POlish shop and helpfull staff. One of the best around.”

“Popped in for lunch and it hit the spot! The meal was cooked to perfection. Nice to have just a tasty and flavourable lunch”

“Fantastic place to enjoy a bite to eat with beautiful views, delectable dishes and wonderful and upbeat staff. Well worth a visit and right on the canal, a gem on the outside of the village. If you're travelling by car there's not much parking so try to find somewhere nearby or park in the village and walk down the canal. The were a good selection of choices available on the menu including a comprehensive number of drinks to choose from all for reasonable prices. It appears to be a popular destination but they do have plenty of tables so you may have a short wait but it's worth it. Outside by the canal most of the seating is for 2 people but there are a couple of tables for bigger groups on the side and out front. Inside there are plenty of tables, upstairs has great views. The staff were very friendly and eager to please. We will definitely be returning!”

“I have been to this place several times and I enjoy it! Nice people and nice atmosphere. Amazing food ! Shisha a bit pricey but worth it.”

“Absolutely loved this place! Had a vegan breakfast which wasn't like a normal breakfast, it was so good. Had a nice kombucha too. Love the vibe and ethic.”
