Gourmet breakfasts in Manchester

“Absolutely delicious croissant - so rich and buttery. Everything was very affordable. Glad there’s somewhere like this in Warrington. ☀️ I’m excited to come back as I am trying to learn French but not confident talking to people at all. They have some French learning books you can read while you eat which I’d like to check out next time.”

“I love this place's food It's spot on very tasty and good portion sizes. It can be a bit of a wait sometimes as it is busy and only 1 cook but its well worth the wait. The chef seems to genuinely care about the food and presentation. so if you've got the time to just sit and relax over great Coffee and superb food you will love it”

“Great lunch during work Popped in, purchased a bagel and sat by one of the seats by the window. It was very peaceful, the bagel was delicious and so was the coffee. The cafe is really bright and open, making it a good spot to have a chill hang-out.”

“My new favorite breakfast spot! The staff here are absolutely amazing, so warm, welcoming, and kind. As someone who’s shy and Muslim, it means a lot to feel genuinely comfortable in a new place. They go out of their way to make sure I’m looked after, and they even adjust the food to fit my needs without me having to ask twice. It honestly feels like home. What touched me the most? They remembered my last order. That small gesture made me feel seen and appreciated. Highly recommend!”

“Been wanting to check out since moving to the area and loved the cozy atmosphere. I was SO happy they had vegan milkshakes as I've not been able to find anywhere that makes them! That and my avocado bagel was delicious. Love the different food options for a little brunch. Service was super friendly too. Will definitely be back to try their tea and coffee.”

“Great service and very friendly staff with good food and drinks.”

“The best cafe in the area, the food is amazing, great variety, freshly prepared. Very good prices, staff always so friendly. I really should go more often”

“Fantastic little cafe, had the builders breakfast, and for £7 you couldn't fault it. The service was great and the staff were friendly. 5 stars all thd way.”

“Wonderful place, Aaron is such a great host and puts so much care from everything he bakes to the selection of coffee which is fabulous. There is a real sense of community when you go in. I have been a regular there for the last 5y and it never disappointed. Take the trip, enjoy a superb cup of coffee and a lush cake!”

“Had an amazing Xmas lunch today at the lounge cafe thank you to all the ladies for great food and service at amazing price.”

“Cute little cafe, lovely food and amazing ice cream! Very friendly staff and plenty of options for every occasion? Will definitely be back to Just-Ice!”

“Visit here regular, with my girlfriend. As she rides her horses past this hidden gem! The food is always piping hot and the cakes…. They’re exceptional Wow I’ll leave that there. The drinks are made to exactly how you ask! I always have coconut milk and there’s no questions asked! The owners Dane and Jenny are so friendly and down to earth. Can’t fault it”

“Had amazing club sandwich with a refreshing milkshake great atmosphere really welcoming overall a delightful place definitely a must if in the area”

“I’ve been visiting this coffee shop regularly for a while now, and I honestly can’t praise the team enough. You can immediately tell they take pride in their work and genuinely care about both the quality of the coffee and the experience of everyone who walks in. Oli in particular has this effortless way of making the space feel welcoming, friendly, and his attentiveness is very wholesome. He remembers people’s preferences, checks in with guests thoughtfully, and the whole atmosphere runs smoothly under his watch. The drinks are consistently excellent, the service is efficient but personal, and there’s a calm, professional energy even during an influx. If you’re looking for a spot where you’re treated like a valued regular rather than just another customer, this is 100% it. Highly recommended!”

“Couldn't star the food as we didn't have any HOWEVER.... the lady who owns The Gallery is an incredible artist and it shows in the decor. Before I go any further, this is also a great bar with lovely cocktails. Stunning is an understatement, there is something interesting to look at everywhere you turn. Inside and outside, just beautiful, a gorgeous place to visit. I just wish she opened every day and night, but alas, only Thursday to Saturday. Friday being the only late one till 10pm. Go and visit, you won't be disappointed.”

“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Lovely little café with a proper cosy feel. Great coffee, simple honest food, and genuinely friendly service.”

“Really tasty breakfast, cooked well and prepared very quickly. It’s a small cafe, so space is a bit limited. But then in a way that’s nice, nothing worse than a huge noisy place. Big car park at the back too, which is handy. Great cafe!”

“Another terrific trip to Gladstone. It was my wife’s birthday and she had specifically requested a family meal to enjoy the epic Sunday Roasts on offer here. Hannah was attentive throughout our visit and gave excellent service. The food was amazing with great portions and excellent quality overall. The Sticky Toffee Pudding sadly defeated me.. We look forward to another trip in the future.”

“Absolutely amazing food at very reasonable prices. Went with my wife and daughter and we all enjoyed our food. Great selection of wine. Excellent service. Have recommended to all my friends and family.”

“The most perfect coffee, never had a negative experience here. Oat cappuccinos always so tasty:) Often quite loud just because popular with parents+ young children but always a welcoming, cosy atmosphere! One of my go-to cafes!”

“The food here is amazing. The service is friendly and professional. Had afternoon tea here yesterday and was delicious. My friend has a wheat intolerance and they couldn’t do enough. Her afternoon tea was the best she’s ever had. So nice to have such a quality place in Leigh. Can’t recommend enough.”

“Food and Thorn Bistro, led by Nicky and her wonderful team, catered our end-of-year team lunch and delivered directly to our offices in Piccadilly, Manchester. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. The quality of the food was fantastic, beautifully presented, incredibly flavourful, and clearly prepared with great care. Every dish not only tasted amazing but looked spectacular, taking our event to the next level and making it a truly special occasion. Nicky was an absolute delight to work with. Her professionalism, warm communication, and attention to detail made the entire process seamless. The delivery and service were exceptional, and the team went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. We will definitely be choosing the Food and Thorn team again in the future. I cannot recommend them highly enough for any event big or small!”

“Love this place. Proper full English breakfasts, afternoon teas. When you’re finished, take home fabulous cakes, buns and pastries. We’ve been many times. Great place. Went for ABBA night last night, had a great time. Loved it.”

“An excellent whole food restaurant with a varied and flexible menu. Great for a morning brunch and meeting of friends m.”

“Absolute hidden gem. Found this place by accident and will most definitely be returning. I was in a rush and hungry. Service was on point and I would say, they went above and beyond to help me choose from the menu and then, prepare the food within the time I had available. I ordered a halloumi wrap, and it was delish. Highly recommend.”

“The food was delicious I don’t normally leave reviews but when asked I agreed to. We always go here when we go to a show at the Appollo. The place is clean and the burger was yummy. Extremely good value for 2 of us. Both had burger meal which came with a drink all for under £20. Xx”

“Wow! What an incredible spot, the momos have an authentic Nepali flavour and the staff are incredibly kind, generous and welcoming. The service was excellent. I highly recommend trying the ribs absolutely delicious!”

“Very good portions, tasty food. Cannot go wrong with this Indian. Diverse range to food. I always order online and collect it. I would say price is good as the portions are very generous. Staff have always been very friendly and chatty when I’ve gone to collect the food.”

“Really super secret restaurant , please search it out you won’t be disappointed. Delicious food wine and great service what more could you want.”
