Specialty drinks in Manchester

“The Royal is an hidden gem the food is outstanding all home cooked, and excellent value for money. The menu caters for all, the Sunday lunches are amazing all freshly prepared and if you don’t have room for your dessert you can take it home. The homemade pies a choice of Cheese or Meat are freshly made by Alison are a worth a try they are delicious. It is well worth a visit and the prices are extremely reasonable. The staff go above and beyond they are so friendly especially Alison & Nicola.”

“Ooof I cant explain how wonderful this place is. Just tricky if you are in a bigger group. Every time I am in Altrincham I do come here. So don't misunderstand. Awesome place. X x”

“Every time I come here, staff is super nice and helpful. They've got everything you need at a reasonable price. Amazing fruit and vegs section. I'll come more often :)”

“Amazing selection of wines and beers. The staff are very knowledgeable about there products and you can see it's there passion. Not overpriced. Good quality and you get what you pay for.”

“Loveliest of places. To work, relax, feel welcomed, learn from experts in one of the most laid back, informed and genuinely passionate and inclusive fun ways possible. Great pouring selection and lovely tables and layout inside and out. You feel totally at home as a solo customer, working or reading and relaxing. Wish I’d discovered before this year but making up for it now.”

“Wonderful coffee, comfortable and inviting surroundings and friendly staff. I could tell that many customers were regulars even though it was my first visit. Lots of board games, which I see from other reviews is a Thing here. I'll definitely be coming back.”

“Junipers is such a lovely establishment. The staff are so welcoming and kind and the service was fabulous. Our server, Flash, was so attentive and made sure we had the best experience! The food was lovely & drinks were delicious. Definitely will return! 5 stars x”

“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.”

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

“Stepping into Turquoise in Cheadle is like being warmly hugged by a restaurant that knows its own character inside out. The décor isn’t trying to impress with chandeliers or glitter thankfully but instead wraps you in warmth with local artwork on the walls that feels like it’s been chosen by someone who actually likes art not someone who just Googled “restaurant paintings.” It’s inviting homely and gives you the sense that whether you’re bringing the family for a big feast or sneaking in for a romantic dinner for two you’re in the right place. Now the food. This is where Turquoise flexes its muscles. Take the full English. It’s not a plate of sadness and regret it’s a proper spread. The sausages aren’t your usual limp Richmonds. No these beauties taste like they’ve just been pinched from a farmer who still sings to his livestock. I don’t even like sausages usually but these have that magic balance meaty juicy and full of intent. And if you fancy they’ll happily swap one out for a Turkish sausage which adds a little drama to the plate like inviting a flamenco dancer to your breakfast table. Their Mediterranean and Turkish dishes carry the same ethos generous but never sloppy bold but never brash. You can tell nothing’s rushed here. It all tastes fresh like someone actually cared as they stirred the pot. The staff are relaxed happy and with that ease that says “We’d rather be here than anywhere else.” They don’t hover like suspicious pigeons nor do they vanish when you need them they’re just right. And the value. Well it’s excellent. Other places might leave you nursing the sting of buyer’s remorse but here you walk away content your wallet intact and your taste buds gently applauding. Turquoise doesn’t just feed you it reminds you that food cooked with love and pride makes everything better. And if you’re lucky the sausages might even wink at you on the way out”

“Came midweek for the early bird menu and it was absolutely beautiful. Came with a friend and her 2kids and the waiting staff were really nice and attentive towards them both, the service was brilliant the food was sublime and the price was solid. Absolutely brilliant early bird midweek deal - Best I've encountered in a long time.”

“Number 1 Indian restaurant in the Bolton area. Some serious connoisseurs of Asian cuisine amongst our group. Veterans of the southern Indian lamb delicacy converted to the North Indian variety served here. Sizzling platters incredible, combined with incredible curry and sides in the original el tel combo meal, this place is one not to be missed. Will be back again next week, top tier place- give it a try!”

“Outstanding as always! Fair prices, fantastic food and amazing friendly service. 3 of us went on Thursday evening for their special 5 course offer. Really amazing value, but more importantly we all commented on how every part of the food was spot on delicious and hot . 10/10 for this great restaurant”

“Food is so nice, I love Thai food and can also be very picky but the pad Thai here is amazing and as a veggie all of the curries are also amazing. I’ve eaten here with people who eat meat too and they all like it, people who don’t like Thai food would even like it. Staff are lovely, if arranging a delivery it is always on time if not early and the restaurant is cute and chilled out. Will eat here forever if possible even if I move away from home. :)”

“Pappas food is excellent. love the fish & chips. Great service by the owner”

“Absolutely LOVED the experience. The food, the sourdough, and the coffee were excellent. The egg Benedict was exceptional. They offer vegan options, and the menu was inclusive. The service was so nice, and I would highly recommend it.”

“Perfect cafe and open on a Sunday morning. Winner all round”

“It was a lovely bar and the food and coffee was great highly recommend it kind regards tony”

“Beautiful building, a real hidden gem! It was lovely and quiet around 9:30am on a Saturday. The queue was starting to build by 10am when I left. The brownie had a nice homemade taste, but it was a little dry. I find this is usually the case in cafes, but this was certainly one of the better ones. You can also choose to have it warmed and served with cream when you order. The mocha frappe was also good, but a frappe is different to an iced mocha, so expect it to be sweet!”

“One of the best cafe experiences I have had in Manchester. Friendly staff, wonderful tasty food and is very popular with a lot of locals in Middleton. Everyone I work with recommends this cafe for the welcoming service and homely feel. & I can tell why. You truly feel wanted and welcome when you come in and to top of off the food is just as good as the staff.”

“Couldn’t recommend the place enough; been meaning to visit since it opened but only just got round to it and I can’t wait to go back. Cycled over, so made use of the plentiful bike racks. Really loved the outdoor area, but sat inside and ordered coffees and breakfast. Service was friendly, coffee and food was all grand; especially the rhubarb and yoghurt granola bowl. Breakfast muffin was tasty too. Looks like a great place for food, events, drinks, etc. My kids had a nice time and I bet on sunny days that outdoor must be hammered. Will be back soon I hope”

“Tasty breakfast served quickly with a smile”

“Very nice cafe. Grabbed a standard English with a decaf cappuccino Good location and tasty quality food with special mixes of Egyptian salt and sauce, handmade. Didn't try the sauce but was recommended to put the salt and spices in with the beans which was very nice Staff friendly and helpful”

“Lovely food. Pleasant atmosphere. Good décor. Great staff. Whether it's a quick and tasty lunch, coffee & amazing cake, or ice cream treat, this is a brilliant choice.”

“Such a great place to eat, meet & get together. The food & service was outstanding. We had an excellent lunch today. Family of 5 including 3 children & everyone ate well for a very reasonable cost. The food was both well made & well presented. Thank you.”

“I visited whilst waiting for a train - the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The menu was clear, and varied with delicious options. I opted for a Jacket Potato with Tuna which was a great size, baked to perfection and served with a lovely salad. This with tea was £6 - great value for money in a gorgeous cafe.”

“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!”

“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”

“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”
