Quality cafe experience in Cheadle

“Lovely cafe open end of the week with excellent coffee and brownies/cake. I also highly recommend the breakfast bagel! Staff voulenteers are so helpful and great community atmosphere.”

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

“Well after friends and customers as told me to try the Three Flames I can honestly say I wasn’t disappointed, the food was outstanding the atmosphere was great and the staff was brilliant they couldn’t do anymore for us specially Younis what a great lad I’ll definitely be coming back and thank you to the chefs also”

“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”

“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!”

“Since my review below, management have reached out to me and have confirmed their cutlery and crockery is recyclable hence I will add another star to my review. Many thanks for response. Very interesting place for breakfast or lunch in Cheadle. This cafe is definitely a positive addition to the Cheadle community - making it feel more like some of the cafes in Didsbury. It is very clean and had a nice friendly atmosphere. The manegment adhere to the Jewish community, hence this cafe is closed on a Saturday. You will find lots of nice things on the menu and everything is well presented and clean as stated above. The reason I can't give this more than the 4 stars, is based on the disposable plates, knifes and forks and coffee / tea cups. I imagine on a good day this Cafe must go through a lot of disposable waste. Not sure if any of this is recyclable (but I have no proof) so effectively this cafe could contribute to world pollution (perhaps comments from management will put me right on this issue). It would be good to have notices saying the cutlery , crockery is all recyclable as this would get another star from me. And lastly but not leastly there is only one Vegan option on the menu. As we all know Veganism is on the rise and it is always good to have more Vegan options on the menu. On the other hand for the Jewish community it isn't an essential - but for the public it might be. In conclusion I would recommend this place as it gives a fresh look to the Cheadle community and it is clean. Worth a visit if you are in Cheadle.”

“Been coming here for myself & previously also with my sons for donkeys years. Although from time to time I've strayed to other hairdressers, I always return to Johns, always delighted with the friendly service & results. John has now retired but the shop is in the capable hands of Alison & Mark, who I know will continue the great service & to treat their customers well. Highly recommended.”

“Our son completed all his GCSE’s with the Intuition Centre in Heald Green across 2 years and he could not have had a better experience. We are a clinically vulnerable family and the exam officer Shabir was an absolute angel. He went over and above for our family to make sure that our son could sit exams safely and nothing was too much trouble. He was understanding, kind, diligent and supportive at a time when so many people like us are struggling so much. No other exam centres would help us and I called so many. Our son would have really struggled to sit any exams at all without Shabir and the Intuition team supporting us. They understandably get quite busy so please be aware of that but honestly if you need to sit private exams this is the place. We can never thank them enough for all they have done for us and our son is now doing A levels and planning what he wants to do next. Without the Intuition centre it would be a very different picture. Fantastic people who genuinely care and that is becoming rarer these days. Huge 5 stars from us”

“We have loved coming to this restaurant over the last couple of years. Have had excellent service and great food at a good price. Since lockdown, we have ordered takeaway from here a few times and even though they are busy, their service has still been excellent! You have been the highlight of our day today... thank you!”

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

“Just had the (not fake meat) vegan burger and salt pepper chips, I was very impressed. Top marks!”

“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!”

“Great pub very nice clientele and good prices”

“My son and I went in half 6 Saturday evening having just phoned ahead to check. Pub was bustling with a good atmosphere and the restaurant was filling up. Lovely friendly staff tended to us throughout the meal which was delicious! I had the chicken fillet, which had lovely crispy skin and the caramelised onion and potato gratin was fantastic and all held together with a great sauce. He had rump steak, medium rare, which was really nicely cooked. Desserts were equally good. I had sticky toffee pudding which was moist with lots of toffee sauce and a really generous helping of ice cream. He had the chocolate and salted caramel cake which was chocoholics heaven! Highly recommended.”

“Best Indian takeaway in Stockport. It's been our favourite for years now. Totally agree with the other great reviews. Love the kebabs on generous fresh naan bread.”

“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”

“I have not been to the March Hare in a while due to the last few visits being very disappointing . Todays vidit has definitely changed my opion. We were greeted by the assistant manager Gav, he was pleasant and accommodating. We had not booked but he managed to squeeze us in. The waitress Georgia was very pleasant and professional. The food was lovely and service was prompt. 2 empty plates. The refurbishment was in character and creates a family friendly atmosphere. The outdoor area has had a much needed upgrade and definitely a place I will visit on a sunny day. The toilet upgrade is definitely a vast improvement . Excellent selection of drinks including a vast variety of zero alcohol. I would highly recommend it .”

“Lovely welcoming Pub, really nice Bar Staff too, we will be back.x”

“What a lovely evening I have just had for my daughter’s 11th birthday family meal. I booked a table online and requested a table near the window which we got and then as a surprise at the end of the meal the chef brought out a cake and the staff sang happy birthday to my daughter which I wasn’t expecting. All the staff were superb. I’m afraid I didn’t catch their names but a blond lady and a tall lad with longer hair looked after us and a female chef. They all deserve massive praise. Constantly checking we were all ok and dealing with my sisters gluten free dietary requirements (she was impressed and happy that you kept everything separate and even more happy she got a carvery with gluten free Yorkshires and gravy!). The food was as expected- pub grub, great quantity and taste. We all left full of happiness and full bellies and that’s all we want from a family outing! So thankyou”

“The Hesketh is hands down the best place for a Sunday roast! I had the chicken roast and it was absolutely delicious – perfectly cooked, juicy chicken with crispy roast potatoes, fluffy Yorkshire pudding, and rich gravy that tied everything together beautifully. The portions were generous, the presentation spot on, and the flavours reminded me of a proper homemade Sunday dinner, only better! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. It’s clear the team really take pride in what they do. If you’re looking for the perfect Sunday roast in the area, The Hesketh is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be back next week !”

“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.”

“Always make space for us and are wonderful at finding a quiet table for us and our autistic daughter. Couldn’t praise the staff highly enough. Great food and drink and wonderful atmosphere. Natalie who served us tonight was brilliant, much appreciated.”

“Great place, had my baby shower and my sons 1st birthday party here, food is amazing, prices are great and such a great atmosphere! Staff are also so nice and accommodating. Will always use these for get togethers now!”

“The bar staff are friendly and helpful here. I love visiting this pub I usually call in after I've been shopping in Stockport before going home.”

“Great place to hang out with friends! reasonable price for drinks and cocktails and pool on wednesday! Great service from Nathan all the time and makes time to talk to everyone. Friday night DJ is also a vibe. will definitely be returning.”

“my sister neices and my mum had a lovely night last night at the retro night but please dont say its chicken in the basket because its more and the desert to the staff was very friendly and helpful will be coming back for a boogie on the dance floor”
