Coffee shops in Manchester

“I absolutely love Costa Coffee, but the best store for me is my local one. All staff and friendly and store is well cleaned. I visit on a weekly basis and I haven’t had one negative experience.”

“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.”

“Really busy but quick service, drink made perfectly. There was one young lady with long dark hair in a ponytail and lots of smiles. She took my order and helped all the rest of the staff. If everyone worked as hard as she does, with that level of customer service the world would the a much nicer place.”

“Really nice coffee, enjoyed it. With cozy atmosphere. Relaxed after watching the cricket game.”

“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”

“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.”

“Located in one of the most beautiful place in Manchester, this is an exclusive men club (no woman allowed). Good environment, good service and high quality barber. Also a good entertainment. Funny and professional people. Highly recommended. Important stuff? open bar!”

“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”

“I stayed here last night and had a really lovely time. The staff at breakfast were all very pleasant and helpful, but Kai was an absolute standout. He was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure I had everything I needed throughout my meal. His warm and thoughtful service truly made the experience even better. Highly recommend!”

“Good to enjoy your coffee, comfortable, nice, and cozy lighting.”

“Really busy but quick service, drink made perfectly. There was one young lady with long dark hair in a ponytail and lots of smiles. She took my order and helped all the rest of the staff. If everyone worked as hard as she does, with that level of customer service the world would the a much nicer place.”

“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.”

“Amazing coffee with fresh, delicious food and drinks! The atmosphere is fantastic, and the staff are always welcoming, friendly, and full of good vibes”

“Lovely store in Knutsford! Staff are extremely friendly, absolutely nothing too much to ask and quick at queue busting. There is a pretty wide selection of food for a coffee shop. I got a Mac and cheese (delicious!) And a small bag of brownies (also delicious). It's quite tucked away on the high street but a lovely stop for a drink and a snack!”

“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 !”

“If you have been in here you know its fantastic already. This is not a typical cafe, its like a community centre but with style, that puts on events and builds networks amongst people.”

“Friendly staff, nice cakes, excellent breakfast barms and good prices. My new regular place whenever I'm in Oldham”

“It's a busy place and the team here work really hard and serve with pride and good humour.”

“Always friendly, professional and helpful. Clean, nice environment. Thanks to Borga, great Barista and makes lovely coffee!”

“A great place to meet others, excellent customer service. I was greeted by a friendly smile and didn't have to wait long for my Latte; found a quiet area by myself as I'd had a busy day so it was well worth it.”

“Really good coffee.Love their caramel macchiato”

“Staff members- Moe, Dylan and Lucy. Are the most friendly staff in there. Making you enjoy your visit. They bring a lovely atmosphere to Costa Denon. Made delicious drinks. Thank you.”

“Great staff. Small Starbucks in the hotel complex. Plenty of room though, including outside seating. It can be quite noisy and has a lot of foot traffic with the hotel, gym, bar and workspace right next to it.”

“Nice place to pop in and get some coffee!”

“The team at this Starbucks is honestly exceptional — no matter what time of day you walk in, the staff are always smiling, upbeat, and ready to help. Whether it’s the morning rush or a quiet late afternoon, you’re guaranteed a warm welcome and great service. A special mention goes to Jen, who has quickly become Norbert’s favourite! She’s always so cheerful, remembers our usual orders, and makes every visit feel personal and positive. The energy here is just different — happy staff who clearly enjoy what they do, and it shows. Thanks for making our daily coffee runs something to look forward to!”
