Chocolates in Manchester

“I live in Nottinghamshire and needed flowers sending to someone in Alderley Edge, I found Chelsea Flowers online. The recipient isn't regularly at the address so I discovered Chelsea Flowers could deliver vouchers instead. This was all done very smoothly, I appreciated the photograph of the beautifully wrapped voucher being handed in. Highly recommended, thank you very much.”

“Gorgeous place for a cosy drink or catch up with friends. Lovely staff and fabulous selection of wines, food, produce and not forgetting the beer! Highly recommended.”

“I’ve only been here twice, but it’s already becoming my favourite coffee shop. As someone who knows a fair bit about coffee quality, I can say their coffee is consistently fresh, well roasted, and clearly high quality. I’ve tried both the espresso and the cortado - the espresso was excellent, and the cortado had beautifully textured milk and was really well balanced. The customer service is honestly the best I’ve experienced in Manchester. Today, the tall guy behind the counter was genuinely interested in how my day was before even taking my order, which felt refreshing and sincere rather than scripted. Little things like that make a big difference. I’ll definitely keep coming back.”

“We come here every other week, every time family comes to visit we bring them here. This place is amazing! The best coffee and food in Poynton, real Sicilian food, great atmosphere and the most lovely staff!”

“Just had a lovely delicious meal with family at Juniper Hale! Thanks to Nancy for being so friendly and helpful. We hope to come back again soon for the white chocolate and pistachio French toast which sooo yummy!”

“What a fabulous place! The staff are so friendly and helpful. We visited last Saturday for breakfast. It was super cold, but we cosied up in a little hut with a wood burner, cushions and blankets and a stunning view (dress warmly). The drinks were divine and food delicious. Great value too, £50 for four of us. Perfect!”

“Great little wine shop and bar with inside and outside seating. Wide choice of wines and other drinks in the bar as well as cheese/charcuterie platters. Friendly, efficient and knowledgeable staff. Particularly recommend wine flight Wednesday: three small (70ml) glasses of wine for a reasonable price!”

“First time I have been here. The staff are very friendly the place is great my dog loved it and made new friends. Overall great time and experience definitely come again”

“Superb range of beers and good stock, prices all very fair”

“A very cozy cafe in Whitefield. We ordered the Turkish Full Breakfast, very tasty and generous portion. The seeded simit with honey and butter really impressed me. Highly recommended.”

“Cute, charming, and so friendly - I’ll definitely be back. (Psst - try the bacon sarnie on sourdough!)”

“I pass the shop on my way to and from work and it's always a highlight as the pavement and window displays are so stunning. I recently, finally made a detour to pop in and see what delights were inside. I spent some time happily browsing all the amazing gift items and floral displays and was drawn to the terrariums that have been created by the owner. I eventually bought a succulent in a small terrarium. As I'm not experienced with terrariums I wanted to start small. I was given full care guidelines on purchasing which I've been following. I'm delighted with my choice and the plant is still looking as healthy as when I bought it. I also bought a different Echeveria in a small pot as it's a type I hadn't seen before. This was also a very happy and healthy little plant and has even just started to flower. I'm so excited as I've never had an Echeveria flower before. The owner was so friendly and helpful and is clearly very creative and talented. I highly recommend the shop and wish I hadn't taken so long to stop and venture inside!”

“I had the most beautiful bouquet of flowers delivered on my wedding day from my husband. Absolutely blown away with how stunning and beautiful they are! Thank you so much. Really made my wedding morning even more special. Would definitely recommend! 10/10”

“Been wanting to check out since moving to the area and loved the cozy atmosphere. I was SO happy they had vegan milkshakes as I've not been able to find anywhere that makes them! That and my avocado bagel was delicious. Love the different food options for a little brunch. Service was super friendly too. Will definitely be back to try their tea and coffee.”

“Wow we were overwhelmed by how beautiful the flowers were, which were made by staff at occasions. .I placed an order for flowers for my mums funeral and they looked amazing . I would not use any other florest now and highly recommend this florest to anyone .staff were lovely so respectful of everything I asked for Thankyou so much x”

“We called in for the first time on Saturday morning and were really impressed by the quality of the food and drinks on offer and the standard of the service. One of the best cups of coffee available!”

“I absolutely love this place. First visited 20 +years ago when they first opened and I lived in Manchester. I now live up North near Penrith so it’s a treat when I get to visit and I feel like a kid in a sweet shop… The selection is incredible, the price are good, presentation is beautiful. Quality is top notch… staff are lovely I only wish we had a place like this up north and I could visit everyday!!!”

“Great food really nice place staff are great would recommend”

“A busy coffee shop but full of character. The menu and food are amazing and serve the best brunch, juices and health fixes. A great variety of teas and coffees too”

“Beautiful brunch spot Came here and had the most loveliest brunch. The food was unbelievable and the staff were lovely.”

“The Cocoa Tree Chorlton has moved from next door to Oxfam to opposite Chorlton Post Office and I had the most out-of-this-world chocolate experience I have ever had, here recently. I visited with a friend, whom I was buying coffee & cake for. I ordered a dark hot chocolate with raspberry sauce (albeit tasting gorgeously like melted Turkish Delight) and a warm chocolate brownie. The drink was very hot, which makes a change from so many hot chocolates in oh so many other café bars and it retained its heat to the very last mouthful, possibly as a result of the added sauce. The brownie cake was also delicious. To top off the experience, the shop owner presented us with a couple of handmade chocolates. I can't speak for my friend, but I popped mine in my mouth for an explosion of chewy, but melt-in-the-mouth mintiness. The overall cost for two people was a bit pricier that I might've paid in most other coffee/chocolate shops, but for the tastes and the hot chocolate remaining hot till the end, I think I would have been surprised had it been any less expensive. I imagine I will be bringing friends here for a treat, for many years to come. I highly recommend this shop!”

“The food is amazing, and the staff are awesome and welcoming. Very much my happy place!”

“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! :)”

“Came here almost everyday during a week stay in Chorlton. Great coffee, pastries and vibes. Staff is friendly and the front patio seating is lovely to people(and dog) watch.”

“Wonderful coffee, comfortable and inviting surroundings and friendly staff. I could tell that many customers were regulars even though it was my first visit. Lots of board games, which I see from other reviews is a Thing here. I'll definitely be coming back.”

“I love coming here for a breather by myself or with my little boy. He absolutely loves it, Lindsay is a gem and her food is delicious. The freshly made milkshakes go down a treat with my boy, the tea is spot on and the hot food is always tasty. There are lots of walks in the area so it's a great place to start or finish at.”

“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!”

“Sent fruit basket to poorly niece and children who received this. Can you see any fruit ??? NOT HAPPY”

“Every time I come here, staff is super nice and helpful. They've got everything you need at a reasonable price. Amazing fruit and vegs section. I'll come more often :)”
