Cafe experience in Salford

“My new favorite breakfast spot! The staff here are absolutely amazing, so warm, welcoming, and kind. As someone who’s shy and Muslim, it means a lot to feel genuinely comfortable in a new place. They go out of their way to make sure I’m looked after, and they even adjust the food to fit my needs without me having to ask twice. It honestly feels like home. What touched me the most? They remembered my last order. That small gesture made me feel seen and appreciated. Highly recommend!”

“Such an amazing place for breakfast/brunch! My absolute favourite spot, and not just for the great food, but also the cozy atmosphere (also dog friendly!), and the brilliant service! Especially David always greets everyone with a big smile and so much care, making guests feel welcome and wanting to come back time and time again! I've become a regular without even realising it and looking forward to many more bruches in the future! Would 100% recommend!”

“We came in for lunch and it was amazing as usual. It was my daughter’s first visit and she loved it. Mike and the team looked after us brilliantly. Highly recommended.”

“Stayed over in Manchester & found this little gem for breakfast/brunch. Ordered a large & small breakfast with tea & coffee included. Freshly cooked, although we were the only ones in, phone orders were coming in. Nice friendly lady cooking & serving. Worth a visit. Plenty of road side parking”

“Delicious coffee & treats and quiet canal-side seating. A social enterprise supporting good causes. Attached to The People's History Museum, which is by donation. Highly recommended.”

“Amazing atmosphere and great Customer service, food is well presented and great value for money, the range of food is comprehensive. They also do too good to go bags and you get a great deal at less than £4!!! Can't wait to go again”

“A wonderful experience at Cafe Istanbul! The food and service were divine, and the atmosphere was perfect. It's an ideal spot for an evening with family and friends”

“Went for a small pot with the lamb curry and it really good, especially for the price as the small pot was the perfect portion! Lots of flavour in there and the lamb was really tender it just fell apart, would definitely go back”

“Gijan never disappoints. Best chicken burger in Salford.”

“Fantastic lunch here. The food was to die for and the freshly squeezed orange juice was gorgeous. The mozzarella focaccia was so flavourful and the strawberry and vanilla sundae was absolutely next level. Our server, Esin was so lovely and attentive and even surprised me with a piece of passion fruit cheesecake (which tasted incredible) as I’m halfway through my pregnancy and was out shopping with my mum. Will definitely be returning!”

“Really good coffee and fantastic pastries & treats. They also sell some cool artisanal stuff like jams and crisps. Atmosphere is always quiet and relaxed.”

“Just finished a delicious cheeseburger, hot, fresh and very tasty. Highly recommend”

“Went in with the Mrs for some scran. She had french toast I had the full breakfast. Both tasted amazing. Presentation of the food was nice. The hot drinks were amazingly good. Credit to the coffee machine they use- definitely high quality. The shop is all tones of grey and blush and looks top. They have this smart looking glass salon section where my mrs went for lazer hair removal before food. Fun concept for the ladies or men who like aesthetics. Definitely go again.”

“Fabulous choice of food. Staff were patient and polite. Everywhere really clean no cluttered uncleared tables.”

“Waiting for my lorry to be serviced popped in for breakfast,was a good breakfast good price would stop by again!”

“Great affordable food. Helpful staff. The best milkshakes.”

“Great nourishing food that sets you up for the day, looks to be closed now, which is a great shame.”

“Came here yesterday with a friend and ordered 2 hot drinks and breakfasts. The drinks and food came quickly. Food was hot and fresh. Big shout out to Lesley and Lewis were great front of house they were friendly and nothing was too much trouble we asked for a little extra milk for the tea and this was done without any problem. There was a lovely atmosphere great to see a happy environment and great teamwork”

“I loved the food and especially the service here. Craig is such a sweetheart ❤️he works so hard and hes so lovely to speak to❤️ I will definitely come by again and recommend it✨️✨️”

“Great sense of community support. Thank you guys”

“Been living at Globe House for almost a year now and feel very at home. The apartment is finished to a high standard and building facilities are fantastic - who doesn’t want to unwind in a spa! The management team are brilliant, nothing is ever too much trouble and any problems are solved straight away. Additionally, they are all so friendly and it’s lovely to pop by for a chat. Location is great, really easy to pop into the city and a very short walk to the train station. I would highly recommend living here!”

“Came here for our anniversary meal and it honestly was the best meal we have had! The staff were incredible throughout the night, and whilst we didn’t get their names, the young, blonde lady and the middle aged, olive skinned gentleman who served us a glass of bubbly each were amazing. The food is to die for and trust me you will not be going hungry when you leave. Thank you for making our night an unforgettable experience!”

“Dishoom Spinningfields is one of my favourite restaurants in Manchester. When it first opened back in 2018, it was Dishoom’s first restaurant in Northern England, and since then they’ve set a remarkable standard of both food and service quality and certainly left me coming back for more. The interior is super impressive, cool and unique. Dishoom is based on the old Irani cafés in Bombay, and the interior is so large and feels like no other restaurant in the city. My go-to dishes are the Chicken Ruby with Basmati Rice and occasionally the Gunpowder Potatoes. The portion sizes are generous, and the rich spices of the curry are super good — it’s obvious they use great quality ingredients and seasonings. For drinks, again the selection is vast, with my favourites being the regular Chai and the Mango Lassi, which are both really good. There is always a staff member walking around topping up tap water, so you’ll never go thirsty. The pricing is a little high, but I feel it is worth it for the quality. Matka Holders can also roll a dice at the end of their meal to potentially earn everything for free, food and alcohol included, during certain times. This makes it all fun, being able to put the meal on the roll of a dice. Due to having an allergy, I can scan a QR code on the menu for the latest information, and all the staff members are well trained in dealing with allergies. They’re aware of coeliac disease and the danger of cross-contamination, and always keep my items separate from my friends’ when I dine in a group. Overall, this is one of the places to be in Manchester if you’re looking for good food with fantastic allergy awareness, overall ambience/vibes, food and service quality. It’s a place that you can go for a special occasion or even a quick lunch (although a lunch menu / meal-deal offer would make it even more enticing for sure!).”

“The Black Friar has been amazing to work with for our friendship group's annual Christmas lunch. They made the entire booking process extremely easy, with all the T&Cs clearly outlined from the start. On the day we were looked after by Jess, who was incredible, very quick to respond to any issues raised, never kept anyone waiting, so accommodating with our various quirks (like pictures), and was easy to reach when needed without making it seem like hovering. And always with a smile, of course. Truly, truly a standout member of the team deserving of all the praise. The food at the Black Friar was also divine, incredibly generous portions (that I admit, have bested me) and every bite was a pleasure for all the senses. Our whole group was very happy with the afternoon we got to spend there and we will definitely be looking into coming back for next year's annual Christmas lunch, a total gem of a pub.”

“Marble Brewery are one of the best brewers around in my view. Their new tap has hit the ground running. On my visit, there was Pint on cask, in addition to 9 varied keg offerings and a full fridge. Great use of the space given its purpose and a place I'll return to.”

“**"Exceptional Experience at the Barbershop!"** I recently visited the barbershop and had the pleasure of having my haircut done by Amir. From the moment I sat in the chair, I knew I was in the hands of a true professional. Amir's attention to detail and creative vision resulted in one of the best haircuts I've ever had! He took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and skillfully transformed my hair with a stylish, modern look that exceeded my expectations. The precision of his technique and the unique design he created are true testaments to his passion and expertise in his craft. I left the barbershop feeling more confident and refreshed, all thanks to Amir's incredible work. If you're looking for a barber who combines talent, creativity, and a genuine commitment to his clients, Amir is your go-to guy. Highly recommended!”

“Very pleasant experience and iced coffee and hot chocolate were great!”

“I had a brunch today with my coworkers (smashed avocado with salmon), absolutely delicious! Great selection of coffe and organic food! Highly recommend”

“Excellent food and really friendly staff.”
