Barista recommendations in Manchester

“Had a wonderful experience this morning. Ruby welcomed me with a smile and suggested an addition to my order which was phenomenal. Carlos brought my full order to my table and made sure I had everything I needed. Catherine bused the dishes from my table when I was finished and ensured I was satisfied with everything. I had a lovely conversation with all three of them after I was finished and left feeling very thankful this was the coffee shop I chose while I was in town for a day. Very personable pleasant experience”

“The service was top-notch—friendly, prompt, and attentive. The staff made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in, accommodating special requests with a smile. The highlight for me was the full breakfast. It’s an incredible value, offering generous portions of delicious, freshly made dishes. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the bacon was crispy, and the pastries were divine. Every element of the meal, from juices to coffee, was exceptional. Overall, Wrappers delivers excellent service, mouthwatering food, and a wonderful ambiance. Highly recommend starting your day with their full breakfast. Can’t wait to visit again!”

“Me and my partner started coming here over 2 years ago, we had walked past seeing “cocktails, coffee and pizza” which my partner turned to say it’s a place made for me (I often have a cocktail, water and coffee when out). We have been on sunny days in their outside area and inside - both carry the amazing by atmosphere and impeccable music taste. The staff are friendly and maintain really good service, very relaxed and chilled vibes no matter what time of year. Families, friends and dogs are welcome too! The food - we have tried many of their options but have come to have a standard order of the pepperoni hot honey pizza and pumpkin base with ‘nduja and cheese pizza . These are amazing, the dough is unlike most other places, that the crust alone is something to look forward too. The pumpkin is a personal fave, again hard to find else where and even if you can it’s nowhere near as moreish! They also have amazing vegan and gluten free options - which I have tried the vegan, and again, amazing quality and taste. They do have dessert options- the baked cheesecake is also a must try, not normally a fan of them but I for sure have been won. Sad to see this little place go but well deserved and excited to see the new place just down the road! Hoping it goes well and will be back when it opens!”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas breakfast at branch 14 this morning! The food, the atmosphere, the amount of effort put in by the amazing staff made the experience absolutely awesome for my 2 year-old granddaughter. Father Christmas went all out to make it a fabulous event for all the children who were there and it was a lovely touch when he came out to chat to each child individually especially for the little boy who was initially a little overawed by the meeting! Very special day, and the individual gift boxes are just the icing on the cake, to be honest I can't see how they can do all this for the price. Super good value!! I highly recommend this gorgeous little family run coffee shop!”

“Foods up their. Would be nice if they opened Sunday mornings. I reckon they could make a good fortune there”

“Ordered a bacon sasuage and cheese bagle and it was delicious, real sasuage with a flavour high quality bacon. But the range of beads meats pasta was outstanding and would recommend this place to anybody passing by like I was.”

“FABULOUS! We were warmly greeted and served by the most sweet, chatty and efficient little lady - so good to see families involving their children and instilling values at this young age. The food was delicious, the portions healthy & delivered promptly - will definitely be going back!”

“Great, cozy cafe for a winter morning coffee & pie. The Chai latte was nice & sweet and the keylime pie was amazing. Easily the best keylime pie I've ever had! Happily coming back soon!”

“Found this place on Google maps as we had an appointment nearby. What a gem! Had tasty fresh sandwices with lovely chips. What lucky retirees to have this on site.”

“everytime I visit the coffee house, your welcomed by lovely warm smiles. Claire does wonderful artwork on top of my coffee and hellene is so friendly so is hana, infact i love ALL the staff, a wonderful place for coffee and to feel at home.”

“Great medditeran influenced cafe, good for breakfast or scones.”

“One of my favourite costa coffees in Manchester, very friendly staff and great vibes inside”

“This is a Great Big Corner shop. Staff are always polite friendly & helpful Shop is Big Bright & Very clean Choices are vast and fresh. Love this place.”

“Random stop for coffee. After visiting Bolton Museum for the Reebok Exhibition, I strolled into Bolton looking around the market place. Up the escalators and to the left I saw this coffee shop. It looked clean, attractive and modern so I checked it out. When I entered I saw I could order a coffee on the tablet display stand. Making my order was easy and straightforward. After I paid, I saw a member of staff making my drink straight away. It was a Saturday around 1.30pm. The coffee came in a paper cup and lid and I took a seat outside the shop but inside the cordons. The coffee, a latte, was great tasting, and presented well. Just what I needed. I recommend this place if you're around Bolton town centre.”

“Sweet music, good prices and amazing staff. Also the presence of a toilet is anhuge olus for such a small cafe.”

“The usual.. great coffee and friendly emplyees. I am a fan to both Costa and Nero. The coffee is not bitter as starbucks. This tome I was lost in Manchester when leaving Trafford Center. Found this branch of costa in Eccles, had cakes and coffee, with our 4 pows friend (dog)”

“The Indian street food and chai tea are delicious”

“A very cozy place indeed especially when there’s a little drizzle outside. The ambiance was so quiet and comfortable that you can get a lot of work done in peaceful environment. There are chairs, sofa seats and counters to choose from according to your taste. Outdoor seating is however best for a bit chilly weather. About coffee, I found it pretty bland to be honest. It just tasted like coffee dissolved in water with a pinch of milk. Still better than Starbucks but needed a cookie to get some taste. The staff is really friendly and helpful with ingredients and taste.”

“Staff are good but sometimes feel like they're in a rush to get you served and out even when they're quiet. Quick service otherwise. Prices are a little high but very convenient for a quick and convenient caffeine fix”

“Drinks are great. Never been a fan of Starbucks food, but they have a decent selection.”

“Good selection of food and the drinks are really nice! Love the selection of seasonal drinks/cakes as well. The service is excellent and the staff are lovely.”
