The 30 Best Food store in Eccles

“Brilliant shop, but it went downhill for a time. The freezers were empty, so I stopped using it, I started going to Urmston, and the shop was packed out. The freezers were full, so that was my new go-to, so I thought I would give Eccles another try and guess what a new manager was in town and the shop was packed with great freezer products. So, five stars and a brilliant shop.”

“Afrobuy has always been a reliable source for me for my African items. Their products are always high quality; delivery is always quick. I can't fault Afrobuy and highly recommend them to anyone.”

“Always have a laugh in here with the family serving. Convenient with good stock and decent prices for a local store. Usually just buy my milk and the odd chocolate fix but essentials there too and open when they say they will be. Would love it if they started doing more services like evri and yodel but have recently got an inpost outside so that’s a start :)”

“Very friendly staff and everything you need . Halal certified.”

“I am new to the area and thought to get some essential but had no idea where to go, googled near supermarket and this came up, i had no idea where anything was in the store so asked a member of staff called jack he was so patient and guided me around the store helping me get everything i needed. This will definitely be a store i will keep returning to. BIG thanks to jack!!”

“Family run business. Very kind and friendly owners. You can eventually make requests and they would stock it for you. C:”

“Very experienced, lady so gentle with our baby, just following her advice now & waiting on the pups”

“The owner David puts on various speciality nights , tonight was a Thai night and all the food was prepared and cooked by his partner Sai .. It was awesome, she is an amazing cook, the food was outstanding and made me feel like i was actually back in Thailand .. at £30 per head probably the best Thai meal i have ever had in the UK ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Best place in monton. Lovely vibe, lovely people, gorgeous power bowls and soup. The best coffee in the area. We've had some brilliant nights here like the comedy nights, rum and reggae night and the quiz. Very cosy and welcoming.”

“What a gaff. Brilliant staff, atmosphere, craic and goods on sale. Popping in with kids, family or mates - always a great experience and brilliant welcome. Everyone cares and makes ye feel like you're where you should be. Happy days.”

“Great choice for anyone. My dog Shady always has a great time with the ladies and looks dead smart after. Would recommend to any dog owners locally who need a good dog groomer!”

“The best coffee house in Monton…hands down! Me and my partner popped in recently and we both agreed straight away that this is our favourite coffee spot ever. The atmosphere is cosy, welcoming and just what you want from a local coffee house and the staff were so friendly! I ordered the steak eggs Benedict with chorizo, and honestly… it was the best breakfast I’ve ever had. The steak was tender, the eggs were cooked perfectly, and the chorizo added the most incredible flavour. I absolutely loved it! The coffee was amazing too, smooth, rich and clearly made with care. We absolutely love this place and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend to anyone in Monton looking for great food, perfect coffee and lovely service! ☕✨”

“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.”

“5 Stars as I do prefer this Aldi, as the staff are very friendly and food always fresh. Just wish I could always get what I went in for.”

“Very nice little shop in Eccles selling lots of Bulgarian food- anything from dry foods and pulses, fresh diary and meat, frozen products, as well as cosmetics and over the counter medication. The prices are very reasonable and staff are very nice and helpful. It’s great to have a dedicated Bulgarian shop in Manchester, as most European shops that claim to sell Bulgarian products in fact have 1-3 products at best. It’s easy to get to the shop and there are places to park in the side roads.”

“I have took my two shih tzus to puppy dogs tails today because the groomer near me has closed. I must say they both look absolutely beautiful I have not seen them look so nice . I will definitely be returning there in future I am so happy with them”

“Aldi Eccles is my local branch when I'm at work. Staff are friendly and the store is always clean. Please can I give a special mention to everyone working today 22.09.25. I lost a very special necklace that was given to me after my mum passed away in 2023. Panicking, as I do, I approached the gentleman on the self serve checkout about 11am and asked if it had been handed in. He reassured me in a calm manner that they may have it. Without giving me any details he enquired with someone in the office who asked me questions about my necklace to make sure it was mine. I was then reunited with my very special necklace. Not only did the team members deliver excellent customer service, they also managed to calm and reassure me. This is why Aldi is my go-to store. I cannot thank Eccles Aldi enough.”

“Great staff really enjoyed my shopping experience, humane prices. “Shop at Lidl”. Same quality as anywhere else but in my opinion better experience.”

“A great polish supermarket, lots of choice and reasonably priced. Cold cuts and baked goods offer plenty of choices.”

“Dropped in here after night shift, can't go to bed without a hot meal. The kebabs are tasty!!! Good quality donner meat, nan bread is a pizza base style bread but always freshly cooked. I tried the hot chilli sauce which has a good fiery kick to it! All makes to a great kebab!”

“The usual.. great coffee and friendly emplyees. I am a fan to both Costa and Nero. The coffee is not bitter as starbucks. This tome I was lost in Manchester when leaving Trafford Center. Found this branch of costa in Eccles, had cakes and coffee, with our 4 pows friend (dog)”

“The cheapest Coke in Town or in anywhere really. Connected with the vouchers and the offers available. Last one was £21 for 48 cans if I am not mistake. Buy more and use the £5 voucher that will make your can of Coke costing around 0.28p to 0.35p per can. Without voucher its around 0.48p per can. They do have different offers and different items. I do kiss the £7 for 30 cans of Coke. The ladies in the shop are very nice and its never too busy in there.”

“Afrobuy has always been a reliable source for me for my African items. Their products are always high quality; delivery is always quick. I can't fault Afrobuy and highly recommend them to anyone.”

“Lovely down to earth staff! We enjoyed our fresh sweet treats! Definitely return.”

“Pol Mart is a Polish mini market and it's very accessible, just wish I understood the language. I go in quite regularly. The staff that can't speak English are just as helpful as those who can. They sell a lot of different cooked meats and cooked fish. I buy whole smoked Mackerel, kabanos and other items.They even have a small oven and they bake small white buns. There is a wide variety of Polish breads,Rye, blackbread etc. For the more self indulgent they have a variety of stunning cakes, fresh vegetables and the biggest Garlic bulbs I've ever bought,twice the size of supermarket variety. I love this store and there are many products I can't tell what they are but staff will willingly help and explain. Every visit is an adventure, highly recommended if you want to get away from mass produced foods in the local supermarkets.”

“Nice Big Indian/Pakistani or Asian Store with most of the Indian (South and North) cooking spices, lentils, rice, vegetables. Frozen fish is limited but there's butchers inside so good for meat too. Nice shop for Indian people living in Eccles, Swinton and Salford.”
