Pastry in Cheadle

“A pleasant shopping experience. More expensive than other supermarkets, but plenty of quality produce. 20% off cheese on Thursday, and a free coffee for members makes it worthwhile.”

“Always clean and tidy. Staff are friendly and helpful.”

“I’m consistently impressed with Emma every time I visit this Costa. She always remembers my drink and has it ordered before I even get the chance to ask. She works with a genuine smile, is friendly to everyone, and goes out of her way to remember people’s orders. Emma carries herself like she owns an independent coffee shop, and she represents both the franchise and the Costa brand impeccably. In a world full of mediocre service, she is a refreshing standout. She’s a real asset to the team and to the local community in Cheadle Hulme. Dave”

“Staying at the attached Premier Inn with family during house renovations. Came for breakfast on reopening, after having watched them spend the weeks leading up to it doing maintenance and cleaning everything. Very clean and tidy inside. Breakfast was great. Good fry up and selection of fruits, cereals and yoghurts. Coffee good too. And the measure of any hotel breakfast, fantastic croissants which came hot from the oven! Joanne who served us was great,very friendly and attentive. Was lovely when serving my young children too. Thank you! Back tomorrow :)”

“Absolutely amazing wraps, healthy options. As well as some great Friday treats. Been on a number of occasions food is always amazing. Staff are so friendly.”

“went for some food here this afternoon, amazing service so attentive and polite !!”

“Lovely selection of breakfasts One thing that could be better is they should do the eggs benedict with sourdough bread toasted. The normal bread gets too soggy. Next time I'll ask to swap them. Thanks :)”

“Only just discovered the Damson tree today, 4 take out sandwiches lunchtime today absolutely lovely, Fair price too,”

“This establishment is an ABSOLUTE diamond in terms of food quality and staff. I have to say, this place serves the BEST bacon sandwich ever. Beautiful thick sliced doorstop bread, top quality bacon cooked to exactly how you like it, perfect crispy. Brown sauce. Their coffee is really really really good!! On top of it all, the friendliest staff. If you’re in the area, don’t miss it!”

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

“Foods up their. Would be nice if they opened Sunday mornings. I reckon they could make a good fortune there”

“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.”

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

“Called in for coffee and sandwiches. Very nice and fresh. Good value. Another visit. Great food. Really friendly staff and very polite.”

“Nothing but positive experiences with Bean Machines over the last few years. I manage two coffee shops on opposite ends of London and bean machines have always been fast, efficient and well priced. We had one of our coffee machines recently serviced by Luke, who was great, providing a thorough service along with a replacement pump which id been meaning to do for a while. Very friendly with great customer service! Highly recommend.”

“My daughter's class's end of year party was held here...it was Amazing venue, can't fault the staff and location. Five Star Highly recommend from having a party or just popping in for a cuppa.”

“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”

“Thank you for the excellent service.”

“Great place to catch up over a coffee and cake staff very friendly and accommodating tables cleared constantly and area always kept wiped down. The toilets were also equally as clean and tidy.”

“Awesome garden stuff. We bought a lovely star shaped lantern, very bright and cheerful and some other essentials. Were disappointed there weren't any chicane mango pizzas.”

“Lovely place. Not as many pensioners as last time. Bit pricey for certain goods.”

“I've recently moved to the area and this was my first time in the Co-op. Lovely shop to get your last minute essentials, love that they are open until late, even on Sundays! There was a lovely member of staff who was really helpful during my visit, Hessam helped me get an item from the top shelf, such lovely customer service! Will definitely be revisiting on a Monday again!”

“Great service. Great food. Access through rear of Europa building.”

“Very modern looking Starbucks with high ceilings and lots of light. It would be nice to see a bit more colour, but does provide a nice calming environment. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and although they were rushed, still took the time to apologies for the delay and made sure my order was OK. My drink was delicious as always.”

“We’ve just had the most delicious corporate lunch delivered to our offices, so fresh and beautifully presented would highly recommend!”

“Been to this little gem of a place regularly for coffee and snacks. Such friendly service and today at the Halloween sweetie hunt they excelled themselves in putting on a fun and child friendly event. Thank you so much Abney Cafe!”

“Really great place to eat. Friendly staff, quick service and beautiful food. I've had the full breakfast on two occasions, and tried some of their quiche and sandwiches too. Always perfect, great prices, and dog friendly too! Highly recommended.”
