   Great place for us plane geeks and their wives!! Good snack - type food and decent coffee. Very close to taxiway, with both runways visible. Wish Heathrow would filliw suit!

   OK cafe serving snacks. Staff seemed a bit glum.

   Average prices for a tourist attraction. £2.80 for a 500ml bottle of Coke®. £3.60 for a Latté. It was far too hot in here. Uncomfortably so. The had a rather large fan but all this does is circulate the hot air. And it was only 16° and cloudy so I couldn't fathom why it was so hot inside the Café. But it would really benefit from having Air Conditioning fitted. Other than that it seemed clean and well maintained. Worth a visit if you're at the Runway Visitor Park anyway.

   In terms of food, a bottle of coke, an ice cream and 2 coffees equated to about £14 which isn’t that bad nowadays for a tourist attraction. Service was nothing to complain about and the atmosphere is very good. Not only is there a cafe, but there is an outside area, a viewing platform and a play area. You can easily see planes takeoff and land from each runway and this is very good for photographers and spotters. Also, there are a few retired planes dotted around the area such as the Nimrod, the Trident, the BA 146 Professional and in its own hanger, the Concorde, all being very good to look at. Also, you can have a paid tour inside the Concorde and the Trident, which these tickets are roughly £14 per person, which i don’t think is that bad for a tourist attraction, these tickets also last an hour, so you get a lot for your money. Lastly, there is a 360 flight simulator which is based on a fighter plane where you can do barrel rolls and loop the loops. Overall, i think this is a very good day out for the family and even friends.

   Awful service. More expensive than a service station. I paid just shy of £20 for two breakfast and two cups of tea. The staff were the least attentive that I've ever experienced. There was no toast or bread with the breakfast. We left feeling robbed and disgruntled. The viewing area was good though. £5 for two hours parking was worth it. Just bring your own food and drink, then you'll enjoy yourselves.

   What a view! Concorde on one side and an active airfield on the other. Prices are reasonable for the location and the food / drink quality is great. Somewhere to shelter when the (frequent) Manchester showers hit.

   Amazing food good price too it and we got to go on the concord that is situated next to the cafe! There is great views of the outside and the planes now the reason I removed one star is because I got really bad diarrhea after eating here so be warned

   Excellent location, views of Concorde right beside the cafe indoors and great views across the runways watching the air traffic landing & taking off. Good food at reasonable prices, friendly staff and ample seating indoors & outdoors, plus outdoor picnic tables nearby. Recommended, especially following the Concorde tour which we did. Recommeded!
