Bites in Manchester

“Brilliant Thai takeaway , the food is fantastic and authentic , you will not be disappointed ever ! The delivery is efficient and friendly staff great choice of meals and great quality, I’ve recently been diagnosed coeliac and the owner guides me through what I can and have , really amazing service !”

“What a lovely little restaurant. We ordered garlic bread with cheese - amazing. Then cannelloni and risotto for main. Both came piping hot and very tasty. Sticky toffee pudding and profiteroles for pudding. The profitaroles were the best I've ever tasted. Service was speedy and reasonably priced. Under £60 for 2 with drinks. Definitely worth a visit. They also offered gluten free pasta and pizza.”

“Absolute best cafe in Reddish. Makes great food for a good price and its always made quickly and tastes amazing. Would definitely recommend!”

“Best sandwich shop in South Manchester by a mile, have been coming here for well over 10 years. Lynn and the team are fantastic, always happy to see you. The food is outstanding and exceptionaly good value. I HIGHLY reccomend a Shark Special with bacon, although I've tried nearly all the menu over the years and there is not a single item I didn't enjoy. Do call ahead for quick pickup, it is busy between 11.30-2.”

“Very clean , very helpful the beef And tomato We have just collected was absolutely Delic. Ious”

“It can get very busy, that tells you what you need to know. Food is really good, portions are well sized and good value for money. If you have any qualms regarding dietary requirements, this is the place to go. They were happy to call me back and double-check dietary issues to avoid disappointment.”

“Fantastic food all the time. And friendly staff. 10/ 10...”

“I have tried many food from here and the food is really good. They have MSG in the food as any Chinese takeaways. The service great, quick and it is affordable.”

“Best Chinese I’ve had, all the travelling I’ve done it’s the best hands down!”

“Favourite kebab takeaway in Stockport. Lovely, fresh, tasty kebab on chips with salad! Great value for money. Homemade baklava, very generous portion and absolutely delicious!”

“Ordered food on App and it was ready and waiting for collection when we arrived. Food was excellent and portions large at reasonable price. Staff very friendly and shop was busy showing how popular it is. Car parking to the side which helped Couldn't fault any of it Will be our first choice chippy now!!”

“My wife and I visit Scona every Sunday morning for a treat whilst our kids are at a local yoga class. The scones are AMAZING, obviously, but so are the breakfasts and drinks. Excellent service, too. Roll on Sunday! :)”

“Lovely little venue cosy friendly staff will be back.”

“Beautiful. Located in the quaint town of Uppermill, this chic cafe bar is a faithful spinoff of one of Uppermill’s best cafes, Caffe Grande Abaco. This cafe bar has a nice rustic and authentic atmosphere, like a traditional cafe bar you may find in Italy. Also, the staff are really friendly (10/10), especially Nigel (the owner), who was great to me. Plus, I went to Caffe Grande Abaco for 10 years, and it was quite emotional to meet Nigel, as I was always asking the staff at Caffe Grande Abaco, “Is the owner in?”. Now, back to Veloce! The cafe offers a variety of drinks, handpicked from CGA (at this point, I’m going to shorten it - Caffe Grande Abaco). So, you can have a nice latte or a cosy hot chocolate while you chill and warm up here. Surprisingly, it is also a deli, since they have charcuterie meats and cheeses, condiments, authentic Mediterranean pastries and biscuits, and even freshly baked bread (so authentic!). I tried Rogers Pistachio Cruffin (mix between a croissant and a muffin) which was crispy and flaky on the outside, but fluffy and indulgent on the inside, and the silky pistachio cream made it even better. Perfect for breakfast! They also do sandwiches here, with fresh sourdough and scrumptious meats and cheeses and even flaky sausage rolls. What I really want to mention, however, is the fact that they are supporting local businesses. Most things here (the pastries, products and even honey) are made by small businesses in towns near Uppermill, which is really nice as Veloce is helping out those businesses. Overall, this place is a must if you are looking for a proper Italian cafe bar, and some delicious food. It is also perfect if you want to buy some charcuterie meats and cheeses, as they have a wide variety of them. Only complaint is, Veloce really needs to bring in some Arancini, as I don’t see much Arancini in Saddleworth, and I’m very sad about that. If you want more reviews like this, make sure to follow The Wandering Chicken, so you don’t miss out on the best places to eat in Manchester, and even the world!”

“Found ourselves stuck outside the shop on a Sunday with a bust tire in 28c heat, this amazing lady opened up the shop just so we could get some cold drinks whilst we waited for recovery such a nice gesture goes a long way. Will definitely return to try the food! 10/10 customer service!”

“Called in for breakfast, 1st time, was more than happy. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. Food and drink a Big 10/10 food was freshly cooked and piping hot. They even avoided one of my all time pet hates, cutting the toast corner to corner(it drives me insane lol) if you haven't been and are in the area definitely call in. Thank you ladies I will definitely be back.”

“1st time visit yesterday, Friday 7th Nov 25. Welcomed in immediately, friendly, seated, busy Cafe. Order taken. Food was lovely & prices are fair. Will definitely be going again. Owners/staff so friendly,service bang on.”

“What a gem to drop onto whilst driving through Buxton. Definitely worth a stop if you want a bite to eat. Excellent spot A clean plate because the food was that good”

“As a family tradition we go out for breakfast on the morning of a holiday. We tried this cafe as the reviews were very positive and my wife had heard about it through a work colleague. The staff were very welcoming. There were a few regulars in who made the place seem very community focussed, more friends than customers. The food was really good freshly prepped after we ordered. When I mentioned where we going on holiday the lady who served us explained she was from that same area originally and advised us of things to look out for. Can't fault it. We will visit again definitely.”

“Great selection of sandwiches snacks and cakes. Lovely service everytime. Brilliant take out service also!”

“I have been a regular customer at this coffee bar ever since it opened the lady who runs the business is a wonderful welcoming and kind individual. I have visited many cafes around the area but in my personal opinion this has a more homely atmosphere to it. The food is spot on and I have never had a bad meal”

“Nice little rea room we just had drinks no food”

“Best breakfast in Middleton, eggs consistently cooked just right- dippy but not snotty. Friendly staff who are very welcoming.”

“Excellent breakfast, been here several times. Good food, helpful friendly service, clean, and nice atmosphere. I’ve heard the evening menu is good too, must try it.”

“I’ve been eating here for over a year now and the choice, price and quality of food is always top quality. But, yesterday a chose to eat the Xmas sandwich and it took it to a whole new level. It was absolutely delicious Please keep it up Jan and your great team. xx”

“I've not actually been to this location, but I walk past it all the time and say that I'm gonna go in. Because the staff looked so friendly, it looked so relaxing in there and very like homely two so I will be joining you guys for coffee.Soon”

“Absolutely amazing party! The room was stunning, the singer was incredible, the food was absolutely gorgeous, and the staff were amazing. Truly the best party ever!”

“This is a lovely little cafe on Pepper Road Industrial Estate and you can takeaway. I had a mango and berry smoothie and a sweet chilli and cheese panini. Both were absolutely delicious! Will definitely be coming back! The staff are also very friendly and welcoming.”

“My friend and I took our 6 year old daughters to the Funky Monkey Christmas party yesterday and what an absolute blast we had! There were fun games and prizes for the kids, plenty of choice from the menu for the kids to choose from and they even got to meet Santa and get a special gift! Our girls absolutely loved their time, and us mums and dads had so much fun too. We even won a prize as adults and can’t wait to have our beautiful Christmas cupcakes!! The staff are wonderful here, and you’re literally made to feel part of the Funky Monkey family from the moment you step in the door! Our food was delicious - we would particularly rate the latte and the banana and toffee muffin and I am looking forward to coming back to try even more from the menu. Thank you so so much to the team for hosting such a fun event last night, you could tell a lot of heart and hard work went into this and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. We really hope you’ll host this again next year and in the meantime we will definitely be back for more tea, coffee and treats! Merry Christmas to you all!”
