Coffee break in Manchester

“This is without doubt the best Costa that I have visited. Really friendly staff, well organised restaurant. All tables were clean, no rubbish and nice atmosphere.”

“Exceptional service, from a young lady called Bailey. Treated me as an individual, knew her brand and how to use the app. Went over and above.”

“Picked up a sandwich and coffee here just now. All standard Costa fare as you might expect. The purpose of this review is just to say how genuinely friendly the two young servers were. A credit to your business. I hope you reward them well.”

“Wonderful barristas - always cheerful and friendly - they know their regular customers and orders so well. Special shout out to Mandeep and Kayleigh; you are both just wonderful ❤️”

“Staff extremely friendly. Service is fast. Food and coffee is delicious! Thank you”

“There are many Costa coffee outlets in the Stockport area, but this is the best. The staff are fantastic, friendly and efficient, and parking is easy with plenty of seating indoors and outdoors.”

“This Costa is usually and understandably busy but I was very happy to get a table today. I had a lovely cappuccino and a cake. It is a very nice Costa to take a break in and watch the shoppers walk by. The staff were very friendly, they cleared and cleaned my table for me. The cappuccino was delicious and I had a very enjoyable experience. Thanks to all the staff at Costa. Thanks for reading”

“Had a great stay recently! Special mention to Charlie who particularly stood out for being very welcoming, approachable and helpful with any questions and requests I had. Would recommend”

“Salford Quays Travelodge is the best in the whole country! Our favourite place to stay. Perfect for getting around Manchester by tram, and ideally situated for The Lowry theatre. And lovely Ordsall Hall. This Travelodge is always comfortable, warm and welcoming. The staff are smashing. Big thanks this time to Lavinia, Kevin and the nice young man who kept our delicious breakfasts topped up - I'm so sorry I didn't get your name. Already looking forward to our next visit.”

“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”

“I visited the Starbucks at Television House in Manchester and really liked the place. It’s in a convenient city centre location, easy to reach and perfect for a quick coffee break or to relax for a while. The café was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and polite, and my order was served quickly. The atmosphere was pleasant — nice background music, good lighting, and a calm vibe even though it’s usually quite busy during rush hours. There’s free Wi-Fi and enough seating for short stays, though it can get crowded at times. Overall, a nice spot for a coffee in the heart of Manchester. I’d rate it 4 out of 5 for its service, cleanliness, and location.”

“ordered two matcha lattes with extras, and they were made perfectly, absolutely spot on. This is exactly the level of quality and care people expect when ordering from Starbucks. By far the best Starbucks experience I’ve had in Manchester. Other locations could definitely learn from this one.”

“Coffee can only taste as good as the person is making it ! Top temperature for you to enjoy ! Amazing coffee taste with a kick ! These guys work hard at festivals top customer service & treat every customer different to their needs ! I am always happy to buy my coffee while on a photo shoot & these guys are here !”

“We came to this branch of costa on Saturday 25th October 2025 ,my son was doing a challenge to run 103km in memory of his friend who died of MND ,we highlighted this area as a rest stop, I felt we needed to praise your staff as they allowed his sports physio to set up her table to work on the team as it was cold and breezy outside, that bit of warmth as well as coffee was very much appreciated Thank you costa staff”

“Coffee is always perfect from Starbucks. Temperate just right. You can get the standard coffee options however they usually have some seasonal coffees. This one is positioned in the Trafford centre and has brilliant staff. It’s pretty quick with service. Majority of the time it’s clean however during the busier times the table may have old cups on. Best to clean up after yourself! Often busy so you might not get a seat if you’re planning on dining in.”

“I had a great experience today at Starbucks thanks to Sammy, who went above and beyond with his service. He took my order accurately, made sure everything was just right, and the drinks and food were absolutely delicious. What really stood out was his thoughtful gesture of serving the order directly to my table, which added a personal and welcoming touch. Sammy’s friendly attitude, attention to detail, and dedication to customer satisfaction made my visit truly enjoyable. He’s a great asset to the team — keep up the fantastic work!”

“Great coffee and atmosphere! Stopped by Starbucks today and had such a pleasant experience. The staff were really friendly and welcoming, and my drink was made perfectly — exactly how I like it. The place was clean, cozy, and had a nice vibe to relax or get some work done. Loved the aroma of fresh coffee and the calm background music. Definitely coming back for another cup soon!”

“Really enjoyed my stay here, the staff were outstanding and hospitable, the bar next to the lobby had a welcoming, cozy feel, wonderful menu and lovely rooms. I'm not sure about some of the complaints on the size, it seemed average to me, but it was very clean which is high on my importance list, as was the rest of the hotel. This hotel is away from the city bustle a bit, but a lot of trees around the property make it very relaxing and a pleasure to escape the traffic. My only feedback is the vegan sausage in the morning was freezer burned and a little bland, they can be tossed in oil & seasoning to add flavor, but fresh/defrosted is best. My veg pizza was wonderful, so was the veg burger. Great buffet in morning. Outstanding staff professionalism in housekeeping and lobby.”

“Always pleasant. Love Jade. Want to take her home! So polite and courteous. All facilities always spotless. Enjoy coming into Starbucks when by daughter has her piano lesson”

“Such a bright airy space with nice coffee and toasties! The perfect pit stop for light lunch after a stroll around the park ❤️ staff are friendly and service is quick!”
