“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!”

“Lovely coffee and friendly staff. The cakes looked delicious so next time I am gonna try one!!”

“It was my first visit to Door 34. Inside downstairs is quite compact, and was full when I visited last week. But there are a couple of rooms upstairs, and that is where I went. I ordered when I went in, a Cappuccino and Banana cake. As I said they were quite busy, and my order took around 25 minutes to arrive, but worth waiting for. The large Cappuccino was one of the best I have had, and the cake very nice. Staff were friendly and I enjoyed the experience in nice clean surroundings. I will definitely go again.”

“Two Suns is the loveliest coffee shop with the friendliest staff. Amazing coffee and homemade bakes, including freshly made croissants. Loads of veggie and vegan options for lunch, I honestly can't rave enough about this place. It's so welcoming and relaxed, a real home from home feeling.”

“Nice place for a break in the journey, nestled away on the Pennines The cakes were lovely, but the lemon meringue was a bit too much for me. The meringue was the uncooked & blow torched variety, rather than the classic baked. The lemon was also pretty heavy.”

“What a lovely coffee shop that serves light snacks too. I had the Greek Melt that was very tasty and my wife had the tuna salad sandwich. We sat in the front garden that's full of beautiful flowers. Staff were so friendly that is norm in this part of the country.”

“In my role as a community support worker I look after adults with various learning disabilitie s I tried Mee Thyme. It was an excellent place. Owner Debbie was lovely and we have been back several times each time she is polite, always a smile on her face and goes that extra mile with the guys I have with me. The food is varied and tasty and all the staff do a great job with their warmth & kindness.”

“What a fantastic little roastery. I picked up a flat white and a bag of beans from them at Bolton food festival and I honestly can't stop ordering their coffee since. They've got a great range of coffee in their online shop that have become a staple at home, and are great for a wide range of brewing methods. I can't wait to try their cafe next! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a local roastery in Manchester, especially love their atomic fable.”

“Lovely cafe with friendly staff in a beautiful space. Fantastic coffee & a variety of sandwiches & cakes available. My only suggestion would be please could you add some salads to the menu.”

“Delicious food prepared fresh to order. We tried multiple pastries, including the cream cheese and honey which was delicious. Will be visiting again soon”

“Great selection of coffee beans, beverages and drinks available. My partner loves the coffee beans to buy and thoroughly enjoys the notes, especially from the Africa region. Probably one of the best mocha I've had ever from here, although I do recommend hot chocolate and the other coffee based drinks!”

“Fantastic visit here, helpful staff. Food efficiently prepared well presented and served with care. Will definitely be visiting here more often. Cakes look amazing”

“We've had quite a lot of flowers from here. All the recipients have loved them. We've always opted for natural/airy flowers but Hannah and Jack are friendly and will chat to you to find out what style of flowers you want. Will call again for Christmas flowers and a wreath. Would highly recommend, lovely people.Thank you. Helen and Carl”

“Fantastic authentic Italian cuisine at a reasonable price, great service and a passion for food and impressing the customer. Very good menu of Italian favourites as well as some more items that show off the Italian pedigree. Fantastic thin crust wood fired pizzas that are also very popular to collect and takeaway. Good choice of wine and beverages with a focus on italian beers, all your favourites are here. Nice atmosphere as the restaurant isn't massive with an open kitchen with the pizza oven on view. Due to the size and popularity I would recommend booking especially if you're a larger party. For me one of the few eateries in the area that deserve a 5 star rating. Keep up the good work!”

“This has been our regular pizza both dine in and takeaway for 2 years now forget the big name pizza places this is the real deal.and i can honestly say we have never been disappointed with anything we have eaten both dine in and takeaway, nothing is a trouble for them if you want to change anything they do it without question. Also really lovely staff nothing is too much trouble.”

“We sat in and had an amazing meal. Would definitely recommend a visit. Food freshly cooked delicious flavours. Friendly stafff”

“Really tasty food, fast service and nice atmosphere will definitely go back again”

“We ordered soup chicken curry with boiled rice and salt and pepper chips everything was perfect best I've tasted would highly recommend”

“We went to Terra & Mare on Christmas Day and it was absolutely amazing. I was in charge of booking a restaurant for our family Christmas Day meal. I found Terra & Mare online, and although the reviews were excellent, I was still a little apprehensive because I had never eaten there before and I just wanted everything to be perfect for ourselves and my parents. Well, thanks to all of the amazing staff at the Terra & Mare our Christmas Day was absolutely perfect. From the second that we walked through their doors, you could tell that you were in great hands. They immediately took our jackets and sat us at our table, then within a minute or two they brought us some drinks over. Every single member of staff was so attentive and couldn't do enough for you, and they did it all with a huge smile on their face. There were five of us in our party, and each and every course that we had was absolutely delicious, and there was nothing that you could fault. This was the first time that we had managed to be together as a family at Christmas for three years, so thank you to everyone at the Terra & Mare for helping to make this one absolutely perfect.”

“Very good food. Great service. I will definitely come back whenever I am in Manchester.”
