Comfortable atmosphere in Altrincham

“Ellie was amazing! Not only did she fit me in last minute, she also gave me first class service. She was so friendly and informative. I was extremely pleased with the colour and style and came out feeling very happy after my visit. I usually have Callum who always goes above and beyond and Ellie was exactly the same, I definitely recommend Terence Paul Hale as they are all amazing at what they do and very friendly.”

“Lovely owners, lovely building, lovely location. A short walk to fabulous gardens and stately home. We didn't eat but the breakfast looked marvellous. Thank you so much for making us feel so welcome. Tom and Tie C.”

“Lucy is great and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a dog groomer. We get so many compliments on how well our show spaniel is trimmed and it’s a testament to Lucy’s experience and professionalism. Her communication and reminders are brilliant and pricing is very reasonable for the level of service she provides. Lucy shows much pride in her work and care for our dog and it is evident she is like this with all of her dogs based on how busy she is with all of her regular clients! We have used a bigger groomer company previously when our dog was a pup and he was so overwhelmed with the noise and other dogs he used to come out shaking and so stressed; Lucy’s 1:1 set up is absolutely perfect, especially for more nervous dogs and we haven’t looked back.”

“This is our go to for special occasion cakes for the past few years. I would not go anywhere else - the flavour and detail are second to none. Nothing is too much. Would recommend. Sarah - Sale”

“I had a lovely lunch here yesterday, good offer of all the standard all day breakfast stuff as well as healthier options like salads, baked potatoes and lunch specials. Good value for money, much more reasonably priced than other eateries in Hale. Give it a try”

“A new customer with Leah. She was very patient with me as I had no idea what I wanted but I'm happy with the result. Also the price was acceptable”

“Tanya's place is absolutely wonderful - we couldn't imagine leaving our bunny with anyone else! We have a house rabbit so she is used to lots of roaming time and Tanya always makes sure she gets regularly let out to explore, keeping us up to date with videos when she can and and our bunny absolutely loves her little holiday here. Tanya cares for her like she is her own. She is so knowledgeable and always gives such great advise. The facilities are amazing - central heating in the winter and air conditioning in the summer. All food is included and Tanya always makes sure they have the best veg and hay. Can highly recommend :)”

“Excellent quality and service. Richard is incredibly patient and passionate about what he does. He spent all the time I needed talking through and showing me the myriad options he offers for a suit. He makes every visit a really great experience.”

“They're one of the best cafes around. Staff is super friendly and the place is spotless. They'll get more customers if they offer more food types, like pastries and cakes.”

“Robina and John are the most wonderful neighbours to have over the road from Hive Stores. They both work very hard to bring a lot more joy and creativity to the neighbourhood and are always willing to help where they can. The waiting room cafe has the best value full English around and the engine room is set to become a great creative hub. Whilst enjoying breakfast on our day off we conversed with familiar faces from the local neighbourhood who were enjoying crafts and socialising in a relaxed atmosphere. Thank you Robina and John for always helping, making us laugh and generally being authentic people. You've created a great space!”

“I’ve been seeing Rebecca to prepare my skin for my wedding day and she has been a dream! Her service is flawless and my skin is glowing more than I ever knew it could. The retreat is also beautiful and so relaxing. I couldn’t recommend her more!!”

“Fabulous service, great nail technicians and a perfect manicure, as always. Love Nail Studio of Hale!”

“Most friendly, welcoming, caring barbers I have had the pleasure of go to. I take my son every month and you are welcomed as though a long lost friend. The care they take when doing hair and beards is extraordinary. I sit and watch Kostas when doing my son's hair and it's like watching an artist at work, the care and attention to detail is beyond anything I have seen in both barbers & hairdressers before. Would highly recommend everytime”

“Went for a Turkish wet shave today. Very professional, my stubble was "steamed", moistourised, shave foam applied, then a very careful shave with a cut throat razor followed. Very nice results, no rash. Will happily recommend. 5 stars.”

“Great quality food for a more upscale version of a British lunch. The scallops were outstanding so was the T bone steak in particular as cooked to perfection, but was all great. Lovely restaurant in Hale village and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.”

“One of the very best Indian restaurants in the whole of Manchester. Authentic and all the dishes were extremely tasty. Portions also very big. Delicious.”

“Had some lunch. Friendly staff food a coffee were great”

“Such a lovely place. Wonderful food, volunteers, people and atmosphere. There is a nice store that sells nice wine, soaps, salt, jewellery, greeting cards including wooden greetings cards, chutney, tea, jams..and many more. For me, it's love at first sight.”

“A great local cafe serving a variety of food by friendly welcoming owners. I would recommend the porridge, Persian or Turkish breakfast and omelette.”

“The Garden Café in Hale is an absolute gem! The coffee is top-notch, and the selection of cakes is simply delicious. Every bite was fresh and full of flavor. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a treat. The service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. It’s clear that the staff take pride in what they do, and it really adds to the experience. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee or a leisurely afternoon treat, this place is well worth a visit. Highly recommended!”

“Dining at Brasserie Blanc was undoubtedly the highlight of our stay at the Delta Hotel. From the moment we stepped inside, the beautifully designed interior transported us to a different world. The space is bathed in natural light, creating an atmosphere that’s both elegant and uplifting. Despite not having a reservation, the staff welcomed us with warmth and generosity, even seating us in what must be the best spot in the house. The customer service was nothing short of exceptional—genuine, attentive, and effortlessly accommodating. The food was absolutely divine. We started with the Dressed Devon Crab and the Pan-Fried Sea Bream, both bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors and perfectly presented. Paired with a bottle of their delicious white wine, it was a meal to remember. So memorable, in fact, that we ended up enjoying a second bottle as we lingered over dessert. Speaking of dessert—what a treat! The Wye Valley Rhubarb Crumble was the perfect balance of tart and sweet, while the Pistachio Soufflé was light, airy, and full of flavor. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience. Brasserie Blanc is not just a restaurant—it’s an experience we’ll fondly remember and gladly recommend. Can’t wait to return!”

“We been last week for our wedding anniversary and we really enjoyed our food , service was excellent , Razvan made our evening, he was very attentive and he recommend us one of your Sicilian wine which was amazing with our food. We will be back for sure.”

“The food is absolutely fantastic ! The price is very affordable . This restaurant is run by a friendly family. Their sons help out in the restaurant with good manners. Once you arrive there , they immediately ask you what you want to eat and drink . Also , they have a large variety of food and drinks to choose from . This is definitely one of my favourite restaurant.”

“Really great coffee. You can tell the owners really care about the customer experience and have gone to great lengths to make it a welcoming environment!”

“This is one of our local go-to places and it kept us sane throughout the autumn and spring lockdowns. Great coffee and friendly service, top tunes and now toasties and also booze! What's not to like? The seating is outdoors but some of it is covered and they have blankets for when it's cold. Top marks!”

“I took my daughter and her friends to the salon today for her birthday party. They had an amazing time from start to finish. The girls were so welcoming and extremely friendly. I can thank you enough for making my daughters birthday so special”
