High quality beans in Manchester

“Best soup I’ve ever had!! Cosy tucked away hidden gem. I ordered the Tomato soup and Cajun chicken ciabatta. Portion sizes were big & value for money was amazing. The staff are very friendly & kind. Will 100% be coming again. The hot chocolate with marshmallows is soooo good.”

“They have a huge seating area, and are open till midnight. Great place to hang out with friends. Beware though, they only accept cash.”

“This is an oasis of delightful experience, low-cost food, and excellent coffee. I was shocked to discover this thoughtfully arranged wayplace within the sterile halls of the interchange. Please visit and enjoy as I have done.”

“I've tried flat whites from so many different cafés around , and the one i had here is by far my favorite! Smooth, perfectly balanced, and made with high quality coffee . Plus, the staff were super friendly and welcoming ✨”

“Great, cozy cafe for a winter morning coffee & pie. The Chai latte was nice & sweet and the keylime pie was amazing. Easily the best keylime pie I've ever had! Happily coming back soon!”

“Wonderful food, great service and a lovely atmosphere. Came here 14th December for the Christmas markets and parade. Would recommend to come here for a bite to eat or if the other pubs are full. We'll worth the money”

“Staff here are so lovely! Been to other Coffee House establishments, Partington is by far the best of the bunch. Food is always thoroughly cooked, and piping hot (had a bad experience in another CH). Fast service, with a smile, and the best coffee around!”

“Went to Piccadilly Garden with friends then just searched cafe on Google map, found this cafe and walked in We ordered Benedict and French toast, the Benedict is surprisingly nice, its wish sweet potato hash browns mixed with bacon bits and red pepper. I think it’s an interesting combination, I never see anything similar in other brunch spots. I personally don’t eat red peppers, this combination even caught my stomach. And I think the Holland sauce is quite nice, better than other places I’ve tried. Classic french toast is okay, normal I’d say. Also ordered berries mocktails it tastes fresh I like it, £5 is very reasonable Have to shout out to Tyler for the great service, very lovely and considerate. We had a whole excellent brunch experience here, and would always love to come back”

“Had the halloumi pesto sandwich and it was amazing! The American is nice too. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the service was great. Will definitely be coming back.”

“two guys on the sunday day shift thank you KINGS my hot chocolate was so good with the added unconventional syrups love u guys i hope the rest of the shift was easy and light!! u both clearly have a lot of knowledge knowing the milk would curdle with certain additions, good work team !”

“We were looking for a breakfast in Denton, we found this little gem just opposite Lidl, oh what a great find it was! Smiling owner, very cosy and making you wanna go back! Very reasonably priced and menus sticking to your hands not because they were dirty but because they’re so nice to touch and browse! We’ll be definitely back for the roast and other menu items (pizza etc). Some music (Italian maybe?) would be nice.”

“Haven't tried the fish and chips but the Chinese dishes were tasty when we visited. Service was very quick and efficient and the portions were a generous size. Price was very reasonable for the food.”

“Fantastic food fantastic service and warm and friendly staff would highly recommend”

“Not been for seven years but had spaghetti Bolognese. It was lovely as usual. I used to have it regularly.”

“Friendly staff, delicious drinks. Really tasty iced tea. I got an elderflower iced tea and it was perfect. Not too sweet or strong. Nice atmosphere, quite empty and radio playing at a good level. Highly reccomend. Has nice outdoor seating and is wheelchair accessible.”

“Had a nice taste explosion with this lovely sweet, wonderful and cheerful staff... and most importantly,the coffee was superb.”

“Absolutely brilliant, love getting my coffee before the train. The team are always so smiley no matter what the time in the morning! They always make sure my coffee comes before the train even if I leave it late they are so speedy and happy! Top service!”

“Probably the best coffee place in Manchester, I go out of my way to get a mocha here. Really good and flavourful coffee that is well priced for central Manchester, nice vibes and place to chill though it is quite small so seating is limited especially if you want a table. Baristas are nice and knowledgeable about all the difference beans as well”

“The service is very good. The coffee is very fragrant. I especially like his croissant. It’s delicious. Whether it’s pistachios or raspberries, the ingredients are solid.”

“The best hot chocolate, and recently appreciated his icey cold frapachinos in this heat wave, thank you Nigel”

“Love hungry Joe's plenty of food on plate so much i asked for a doggy bag”

“The Bailey's hot chocolate is exactly what you need on a winter's day. Thanks coffee shack! The whole place is amazing and such a fantastic location.”

“I visited Costa Gatley Sunday afternoon — a clean, well-maintained store with a cosy atmosphere and a good selection of food options. However, what stood out during my visit was an interaction at the till that left me quite surprised, and not in a good way. When I ordered a medium hot drink, the young girl serving me actively discouraged the choice. She suggested I go for a smaller size, saying: “There’s not much difference in size — go for the small and save some pennies.” As someone who has run a business for over a decade, I found this quite concerning. In most places, staff are trained to upsell — encouraging customers to consider larger sizes or additional items, which is standard practice in retail and hospitality. Her approach, while possibly well-intentioned, directly goes against basic principles of sales and revenue generation. Encouraging customers to spend less, especially unprompted, may seem kind, but it’s ultimately damaging to the business. In my view, this isn’t just unprofessional — it’s a risk to the long-term health of the store. Costa may want to consider reviewing training procedures to ensure staff understand the balance between customer service and commercial awareness. Thank you”

“Got some great ingredients here that you won't find in Lidl.”

“I have been going here for a very longtime, chicken in black bean sauce, Vermachelli Singapore style, fillet steak Cantonese style, king prawn chow mein these are just a few dishes that I have always ordered. Cooking is a fine art I have never had a complaint about any food I have had from this takeaway, I have been to restaurants in Manchester China that have not been as good as this takeaway. The couple running this takeaway are very good people. Food always prepared perfectly, order on the phone always very polite and Pleasant. I will never go another Chinese takeaway why would I when this is to the highest standard.”

“Sweet music, good prices and amazing staff. Also the presence of a toilet is anhuge olus for such a small cafe.”

“Lovely cafe nice breakfast and coffee really friendly staff. Love this place will definitely be going back for breakfast…”

“Can't beat a costa hot chocolate now the weather's cooling down n winters on its way..”

“Wonderful hidden gem! Friendly staff and a lovely latte. Spacious and nice views of the park.”

“Lovely location. Nice carrot cake and a pot of tea for £4.25. Friendly service.”
