Quality cafe experience in Altrincham

“I had a lovely lunch here yesterday, good offer of all the standard all day breakfast stuff as well as healthier options like salads, baked potatoes and lunch specials. Good value for money, much more reasonably priced than other eateries in Hale. Give it a try”

“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!”

“Went to see STUART MICHAEL. Would definitely recommend! It was my first ever show of this kind. It was packed out! Would suggest getting there at least half hour before any show starts to get a carpark space behind the theatre.”

“Cocktails were 10/10!! It’s hard to make a delicious Pornstar Martini but they so good we went back for seconds!! Lovely atmosphere and our server V was very friendly and made the best cocktails! Cant wait to go back! So good to have a local fab cocktail bar!!”

“Called in for the first time today just as I was passing. Bought a few things then thought I’d visit the cafe for coffee and cake . Really nice small cafe. Totally spotless and the most amazing thing was the great service and friendliness of the lovely lady who works there. ( blonde plaited pony tail ) Thank you so much . You are a credit to Waitrose .”

“Was there last. We had a starter, main, and a few beers each. Best curry I've had in years. The service was very good. I'll be coming back again.”

“Great place for us plane geeks and their wives!! Good snack - type food and decent coffee. Very close to taxiway, with both runways visible. Wish Heathrow would filliw suit!”

“Love the Cafe! I have had the Fish & Chips twice now , never disappoints and always a great portion for the price!”

“Awesome food. Big portions. Great staff. Love the food here which is really cheaper than most places nowadays”

“Great service and very helpful staff. I am a regular visitor, sometimes to get lunch and sometimes to place larger orders for my office. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Libby, Tilly, Beka and Ivan for helping with my most recent large order.”

“Tried a jerk chicken wrap here for the first time today and it was superb! So flavourful and decent quantity. Really lovely staff.”

“Great food whether you want home baking, an Italian special or just a bacon sandwich. Thoroughly recommend the cappuccino with a double shot of espresso (think big flat white). Lovely atmosphere and dog friendly too. Can't recommend too highly.”

“Excellent service. The workshop team are the most helpful people, always happy to go out of their way to assist. Very competitive repair prices and their work is always top notch. My mother in law has taken her csr there for years and she knows they will look after her. Recommend to anyone.”

“Great Brunch place! Had a brioche with avocado, scrambled egg and spicy mayo. Was very delicious and portions were big! Service was also very friendly.”

“Really lovely tearooms with a warm welcome & service with a smile. Highly recommended! Our dog Lola loved her sausage treat too!”

“My friends and I had a coffee and pastry there and their drinks and pastries were super delicious esp the pistachio croissant was so rich and yummy”

“We visited So Marrakech, the place is clean and nice. The atmosphere is amazing. We ordered latte, cinnamon bun, and momo turmeric kombucha. The latte was nice, the cinnamon bun was one of the best, the momo turmeric didn’t taste nice but it feels healthy. The place is so recommended.”

“A great local cafe serving a variety of food by friendly welcoming owners. I would recommend the porridge, Persian or Turkish breakfast and omelette.”

“Not able to judge the food (they dont sell any) or the atmosphere (as no one else was in) but the bar itself is wonderful. Only small, with an indoor upstairs seating area & a small section out front with tables & chairs (only good for dry days) Theres also a beer garden to the rear apparently (never tried it)? Although limited for bar space the beer selection is good. More often than not there are 3 locally brewed ales on cask & 8 beers on keg, which usually includes a dark one. Altrincham born & bred Iv'e been coming here since it opened in the early 2000s and despite both it sister bars closing (Chorlton & Liverpool) luckily this bar continues to trade. I wish there was a greater choice, but should you be unable to find something unsuitable on cask/keg, they also have a well stocked fridge with numerous craft ales so im confident you'll find something suitable. Not the cheapest of bars, but far from the most expensive. OK, its getting a little tired around the edges now & the downstairs disabled toilets could do with a bit of a face lift, but all that said I still highly recommend this place.”

“Visited with work colleagues for a few drinks and had a great time. The bar wasn't overly busy and we were able to talk to one another without shouting which was nice. The drinks were good and not very expensive. The toilets upstairs were clean and tidy even though it was towards the end of the night.”

“Really nice & fresh salad box. Staff is always so friendly and the freshly baked sausage rolls are amazing. Wish they did hem every day.”

“This is one of our local go-to places and it kept us sane throughout the autumn and spring lockdowns. Great coffee and friendly service, top tunes and now toasties and also booze! What's not to like? The seating is outdoors but some of it is covered and they have blankets for when it's cold. Top marks!”

“If there was an option for 6 stars, this pub would get it. Came here after a walk in the area and walked in to friendly staff and a warm fire. It was a weekday so not so busy we got a table straight away. You think it can't get better. It does. The pie was amazing, mash was amazing and gravy was amazing too. Such lovely food we had to get dessert and that was, as predicted, amazing. Can't wait to come back here again and try the other food on the menu, really exceptionally good pub to come.”

“Popped in for a bit of comfort food on this cold day - wasn’t disappointed asked for a crispy bacon butty and was delicious,”

“I am from Arizona, but I served a Mormon mission here back in 1980 and this was the one place that had the best burgers in the world better than any that I have in America. And so literally I’ve been coming back for 43 years to this same place and same location. Their hamburgers and onion rings are second to none. And the lady that’s been serving us has been there 27 years, that’s crazy. When we bring my kids over and grandkids this is their favorite stop, we purchase takeout and then we walk across the street to the picnic tables and enjoy the best burgers around.”

“I always come here with my family to have carvery. Not only because the food is delicious, but they also have a small playground inside. Today I was served by a woman named Bon, she was wonderful, she was very patient and kind. We will keep coming back.”

“Like Subway but with a focus on the illustrious bap. The welcoming server knocked up a sweet and saucy Smoked Chicken Bap that I’d definitely order again.”

“Visited on a Sunday evening, place was quiet, large selection of drinks (deals on shots) place was clean and modern, good atmosphere. Staff were excellent, friendly and welcoming, would I visit here again, absolutely.”
