Food and drink in Manchester

“First time,really good impression. Very polite staff and 5 star meals”

“Wat a lovely welcoming place. I sat in qnd had the special homemade meatball marinana. Was so delicious and fresh. Will defo be going back”

“The best Prestwich café. I'm sad it took us so long to try this outstanding café! The food was delicious, a shashunka worthy of the name! Best one I've had in the UK, spicy and with melt in the middle eggs. Outstanding oat milk coffee, the best around and there is good competition. Great veggie/vegan options, and lovely staff/vibe. Great with our annoying toddler too! :) Will be back!”

“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.”

“This place is mindblowing! Beautiful decor, absolutely spotless, coffee and sandwiches to die for. And the prices are very good. Beautiful oat vanilla latte & the most delicious chicken tikka sandwich. Even if I’m not hungry, whenever I happen to be in Manchester, I make sure I get 1 for later Lol. The owner is a very decent, sincere and genuine gentleman. He works with passion and prices, quality of products, cleaniness and his approach to clients reflect that. Always happy and professional. I can’t wait to go & grab my fav sandwich again. Definitely a place to go, not just whilst waiting for your bus!”

“My first time at this cafe. What an excellent cappuccino and a great Full English breakfast ! The staff are very nice. It is so enjoyable eating there.”

“If you’re looking for ambience, this is not for you. Getting that out of the way, this was one of the most authentic and affordable breakfasts I have ever had in England and cooked to perfection and had great portion sizes.”

“Absolutely love it here. Went last week for the first time in a couple of years and the layout has really improved, felt more spacious. Very child friendly too . The staff were lovely and the food and drinks were great!”

“Randomly found ourselves just outside Stockport this morning, wanting a breakfast. Google'd for a cafe and it suggested Flora. What a lovely find, the prices matched the food, excellent. First time I've been served egg & beans on toast as a toasted sandwich but I'll be making it that way for myself in the future. Coffee was fresh and smooth.”

“Great place out of the city. If you go from the airport to Old Trafford stop in this village and have a coffe and cake at Fino! Excelent cakes and very good prices, very very good comparing to Manchester caffes. And this is what I call coffee, but Im from Croatia, we take expresso. Personel were very friendly!”

“Second time coming here. The woman who runs it is lovely. A nice old fashioned cafe where youll get fed good hearty food. Any irish lads working local this is where youll fed fed a proper meal. She does broths and stew type food.”

“Lovely place to sit and have coffee and very good cake. One of the few places in Chorlton that has an off road garden area to sit.”

“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.”

“Great little coffee shop. Nice selection of, home made, sandwiches and cake, to go with the excellent coffee. Definitely be returning there.”

“One of my favourite places to come and work as the coffee and atmosphere are 10/10. However, came and had brunch today and can honestly say in 6 years of being vegan it's the best breakfast I've had! My brother ordered the breakfast sandwich which he said was amazing. Also incredibly good value for money all this plus an oat flat white and half pint of Moretti came to £20!”

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

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

“Excellent Breakfast - great service. I especially liked the large Latte coffee as an after breakfast treat.”

“The best omelette I have ever tasted. Italian chicken and mushroom with chips and salad. You guys can cook!!!”

“Our 4th afternoon tea tray from here, never fails to please - plenty of very fresh sandwiches, savouries, little cakes, scones, clotted cream & jam, fruit.... superb value and excellent quality”

“A fantastic place to meet with like minded people and enjoy doing the things that we all enjoy”

“This is literally the best breakfast anywhere in the area. I travel couple of miles out of my way to eat here.”

“Manchester on a Sunday Morning for Bruch was a lot busier than we thought. Luckily we got a table at Idle Hands. I'm super glad we did. Lovely atmosphere. We ordered and shared: Meaty Hash Brown Stack and Divorced Eggs. Both tasted fantastic. Food came quickly and was presented like a work of art. It was so good, I really can't recommend it enough. I ordered one of their famous pies and can tell why. I got the Banana Milk Pie and it was so light and creamy. Top marks.”

“By chance I discovered this recently opened little gem of a cafe in Hale Village adjacent to the railway station. This cafe is on the second floor above an art gallery and is immaculately clean and simply but tastefully decorated. Very polite and attentive staff with a good selection of nicely cooked food and drinks at very reasonable prices. It is an ideal location to relax and meet your friends for a coffee or a light meal throughout the day.”

“Only had cake and a drink but service was quick and friendly. Breakfasts looked fantastic and the number of people ordering them speaks volumes for popularity and quality, so don't believe you'd be disappointed. Would recommend and likely have a breakfast next time!”

“Lovely food and friendly staff, great place to have a catch up with friends for a coffee or a bite to eat”

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

“Great friendly staff, good food, clean and tidy. You can never go wrong eating here”

“Had a couple of beers, great place to chill. Always friendly.”

“Best cafe in central Manchester, community run, delicious and affordable teas/coffees and snacks. Cosy and comfy with great service. So happy it's around the corner from my office!! :)”
