Baked good purchases in Manchester

“Grounded in the North went down a storm at PlannerFest. There was lots of praise for the quality of the brews and cake! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.”

“Amazing coffee friendly staff.Kenya is the best one. Highly recommend.”

“The food was so lovely and reasonably priced. Really lovely , friendly staff who helped calm my toddler down (who decided to have a huge meltdown just after we’d ordered our food) with great distractions and a babycinno. Thank you so much, will definitely be back!”

“So handy and seem to carry everything you need in a pinch. Also staff more than happy to help.”

“WoW...! , I have just had the nicest breakfast sandwich in a long time. The food seemed top quality. You may find this place to have slightly higher prices then some cafes. But in my eyes its worth every penny. The staff also were friendly. They have marquee outside as well as inside dinning. It looked extremely cosy well set out and extremely clean.”

“After moving from the Northern Quarter to Heaton Moor, I was desperate for a decent cup of coffee. Luckily, I realised B'spoke was just up the road - the only place in the area that serves NQ quality coffee. It's a must-visit for all true coffee lovers. Nick serves up fantastic coffee with a smile and is always up for a chat!”

“Absolute gem in prestwich. Can't believe it's taken me this long to pop in. Had a fantastic coffee & a beautiful bun filled with bolognese. Highly recommended 5* Update Dec 22' Finally got round to tasting the wonderful pizza at Lupo. Its definitely the best pizza I've ever tasted, everything was so so fresh and tasty. I highly recommend. Very easy to communicate over WhatsApp, get your orders in!”

“Really nice setting. Good coffee. Food really nice and tasty. Cakes looked great. Definately will return.”

“Massive thank you to the staff for all their hard work making our daughters baby shower just perfect. They went above and beyond. We all had the best time!”

“Really charming little cafe. We were in Manchester for an event and stopped in here as somewhere local to where we were staying. Rather than just being a convenient place to eat Sunday brunch, the menu was varied and all of us enjoyed the meals we ordered. The staff were lovely, really friendly. Would definitely recommend.”

“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.”

“5 stars to everything! Very good food, lovely staff and good prices. Recommended 100%”

“Came in for a solo brunch on my day off. I got a very warm welcome and an absolutely perfect cooked breakfast.”

“Honestly have to say that this is probably the best craft store I’ve ever been to - and it was a random discovery on a day trip to Manchester. I’m used to Hobbycraft and the occasional trip to CassArt (not something we have in Nottingham) but I have to say that I’ve never seen Procion dyes for sale anywhere else. The gift ideas on the first floor were fun, I saw some things I’ve not seen for years, but the treasure trove downstairs was great. Interesting selection of craft books, paracord in nice bright colours, three different types of fabric dyes, quilling paper, spraycans, all the scissors your crafty little heart could desire, a great notice board with workshops etc on it by the stairs etc etc. And that’s really just the tip of the iceberg. Maybe slightly short on the amount of cross stitching threads, but most places are and despite this had a good selection of embroidery hoops.”

“Went on a hot evening. Managed to sit outside and get the breeze. Shisha was of decent quality and service was quick. Good prices for shisha and drinks!”

“Had the BLT on toast with a mocha, Was cooked perfect, Staff was friendly, Places to sit and fair on price. Five ***** From me.”

“Excellent service every day, happy to discuss the new bags of coffee, staff are friendly and chatty, The place is always immaculate - great vibe too”

“Absolutely amazing. I don't know of a comparable bakery in the Brooklyn New York metro where I live. I had the twist and the cinnamon bun.”

“By far the best chippy for miles around. A really friendly welcome for either eat in or take away. The Greek Cypriot family owned business also serves an excellent array of traditional Greek food.”

“What a lovely place….excellent choice at reasonable prices, beautiful food and very well presented. Not your usual cafe, it has that something extra. I also love the family run feel of it. I will be coming again for sure!”

“So refreshing. Wonderful array of flavours in both dishes. Very well prepared and hit the spot just perfectly. Wish I could have breakfast here everyday! Will definitely come again :)”

“Love this store, it's clean and bright, good parking and the staff are absolutely wonderful, always a smile and friendly word for you.”

“Always good produce at affordable prices very efficient checkouts”

“What a find! Lovely atmosphere, efficient unrushed service, friendly attentive staff, gorgeous food. No room for afters but a huge range of delicious cakes to take home. We shall return!”

“Lovely cafe serving good coffee which beats all the major chains. Ideal for a coffee and cake or lunch”

“Great place to shop and not too busy, for a Friday afternoon. Loads of Decent offers and great products. This was my first visit to this place. since it moved, from the old place. I usually do my shopping online. But called in with a friend, who needed some bits.”

“I went in for some donuts on Fat Thursday. They were amazing. Staff don't seem to wear masks though all the customers did.”

“Everything is where I looked for it all the items on my list were in stock the staff are helpful and polite and willing to help in anyway they can”

“Friendly staff, free parking, well stocked for a small shop.”

“There are 3 Costa Coffee stores in Oldham and this one is clearly the best. It is clean, modern and well looked after. Staff are very friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be that as it is run by Odeon, it does not offer any promotions or deals on food as well as charging 10p extra on drinks. Not a big deal and I expect to see some franchises putting prices up.”
