Drinks store in Manchester

“We’ve been here twice recently because it’s just so good! The first time I had the Turkish eggs with halloumi and sausage, then the second time I went for the chicken and pancakes, both were amazing. One visit was around 11am on a Saturday and there was about a 15-minute wait, but definitely worth it. The other time we went a bit later and got a table straight away. You can book ahead, but they also keep some tables for walk-ins. Staff are nice and friendly and really good to accommodate allergies too”

“Good espresso and great people!”

“My friend and I took our 6 year old daughters to the Funky Monkey Christmas party yesterday and what an absolute blast we had! There were fun games and prizes for the kids, plenty of choice from the menu for the kids to choose from and they even got to meet Santa and get a special gift! Our girls absolutely loved their time, and us mums and dads had so much fun too. We even won a prize as adults and can’t wait to have our beautiful Christmas cupcakes!! The staff are wonderful here, and you’re literally made to feel part of the Funky Monkey family from the moment you step in the door! Our food was delicious - we would particularly rate the latte and the banana and toffee muffin and I am looking forward to coming back to try even more from the menu. Thank you so so much to the team for hosting such a fun event last night, you could tell a lot of heart and hard work went into this and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. We really hope you’ll host this again next year and in the meantime we will definitely be back for more tea, coffee and treats! Merry Christmas to you all!”

“Great little coffee shop. Nice selection of, home made, sandwiches and cake, to go with the excellent coffee. Definitely be returning there.”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas breakfast at branch 14 this morning! The food, the atmosphere, the amount of effort put in by the amazing staff made the experience absolutely awesome for my 2 year-old granddaughter. Father Christmas went all out to make it a fabulous event for all the children who were there and it was a lovely touch when he came out to chat to each child individually especially for the little boy who was initially a little overawed by the meeting! Very special day, and the individual gift boxes are just the icing on the cake, to be honest I can't see how they can do all this for the price. Super good value!! I highly recommend this gorgeous little family run coffee shop!”

“Good food, didn't take long for it to arrive. Can pay by either cash or bank transfer (not card) highly recommend Lenny's large breakfast yummy”

“This was a really charming and friendly tea shop where I stopped for a breakfast and a cuppa. It was good food, hot and the server was super friendly. Would recommend”

“Perfect place for a girls brunch! Food was delicious and staff were excellent! Very reasonable prices! Will definitely be back ❤️”

“I popped into one Thirty this Morning for a G.F. Breakfast. Unfortunately no G.F. Sausages. But I recieved plenty of Bacon to compensate. Lovely young Lady served me, very accommodating. Next Time I'll go for the "Big Breakfast" as G.F. bread are Tiny Slices. I checked out the "Breakfast box" in the Reviews it Looked BAZZIN. Overall a Very Pleasant experience ☺ The Young lady even worked out my Bill so it came back Cheaper. Bargain.”

“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!”

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

“We visited one four five this afternoon for lunch in a party of three and we enjoyed a lovely lunch time meal of baked potato with cheese and bacon accompanied with a salad dressing and our other friend had egg royal with salmon. Follled by a cheeky Procesco. All in all a very enjoyable afternoon lunch.”

“Wonderful place for breakfast especially if staying at the Crown Plaza, as we have several times. Not only is the food great, the ambience and decor is charming with its plants and each table having an old fashioned glass milk bottle with cute stainless steel cups for drinking water! It’s a popular place so today we arrived as they opened in order to get a seat. It soon filled up. This place does a lot of takeaway breakfasts also. We were served by the lovely and friendly Josh and ordered the amazing French toast along with the Turkish eggs with chorizo. Coffees were great as well. Service is polite and efficient and we’ll be back tomorrow!”

“Now we’re talking. La Collina was a treat - they have a short, simple home-made lunch menu. I had gnocchi with Bolognaise sauce. Perfect portion size. Coffee was delicious and forced myself to have a pistachio cannoli alongside it. Matt the chef is a focused on flavour and dishes with a twist - you can taste it. Nice space to work from too. Back soon. BACK AGAIN: La Collina is a hidden gem. The menu is developing from daytime only into an evening offering too. Matt, the creator and chef is passionate about the menu. New menu dropping in mid August. Go there.”

“This coffee shop is so cute. It’s become a regular for me and a friend on Wednesday mornings. Coffee and cakes are great. Meeting Lydia (the volunteer) has been such a pleasure. I think she’s brilliant. ( I hope your driving lesson went well!). I’m looking forward to Wednesday already, I must be as I never leave reviews!!!”

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

“Amazing selection of wines and beers. The staff are very knowledgeable about there products and you can see it's there passion. Not overpriced. Good quality and you get what you pay for.”

“Recommended me some great wines that I probably wouldn't have tried otherwise and they were all greatly received. Would visit here over a supermarket any day of the week.”

“Popped into the shop earlier today to grab a couple of bottles. The salesman, I think his name was Joe, couldn't have been more helpful. He gave me a really great selection of recommendations and was really helpful getting everything into the car for me. Will definitely go back.”

“Loveliest of places. To work, relax, feel welcomed, learn from experts in one of the most laid back, informed and genuinely passionate and inclusive fun ways possible. Great pouring selection and lovely tables and layout inside and out. You feel totally at home as a solo customer, working or reading and relaxing. Wish I’d discovered before this year but making up for it now.”
