Cafe in Macclesfield

“Lovely cafe serving awesome veggie options and range of excellent cakes. Hot drinks are great too!”

“Tracy was a true star, really helpful and kind So much appreciated as I’d missed my train by seconds”

“Mustard Cafe in Macclesfield offers friendly service and fresh, tasty breakfasts in a very clean setting. The coffee is delicious and the prices are reasonable, making it a standout spot for a relaxing meal often rated better than chain cafes in town”

“Have been here three times now and the food has always been delicious. The chicken club is especially good. The space upstairs is airy and bright, with large floor to ceiling windows and the downstairs is cosy and low-lit. We’ve had the breakfasts, the pastrami sandwich and the club - all delicious. Staff are lovely too.”

“I mean what’s not to like?!?! Ordered the Spam and Egg Vienna and it was amazing, will definitely be back again.”

“Well I have been popping in and out of this cafe for longer than I can remember it was flocks then but I can say the food and the staff are still the best to day I am on my way down from Scotland. Well worth the diversion”

“Reasonable priced decaff coffee and vegan cake. There's milk alternative available, oat, coconut and soya for anyone who's vegan or lactose intolerant. The staff are friendly and welcoming all in all a nice place to visit and cheaper than some highstreet coffee shops.”

“I absolutely love the Cornish pasty at this place, I live in Manchester, but whenever it is possible, my husband and I go to Macclesfield just to have a few.:) We have tried to find a place in Manchester that could beat this one, but no such lucky so far. In my opinion all sweets and pasties that I have tried are excellent. We haven't seat in to eat there though, we prefer to take it home. Enjoy!”

“Excellent hub for all things around autism. The whole place is purpose designed to be a safe space for people with autism to feel comfortable and get help with what they need. Exceptionally professional and knowledgeable staff. Very supportive if you're new and have questions (drop in or appointments available). Help with all aspects of the journey with clubs, learning and fun. Well integrated with other services in Cheshire East. Wonderful cafe for lunch and snacks. Helpful with special diets. A great community doing what it says on the label.”

“Went back again today and I think it's fair to say we are developing a habit! The atmosphere inside is so nice, and the guys are so friendly, it makes it such a lovely place to visit - and the coffee is so delicious that's worth going for alone. There's a great cake selection. The brownies/tiffin/cookies/cakes are just right, they are rich and taste amazing without being too much and there are loads of gluten free and vegan choices so it's a great place to go with anyone.”

“A lovely little place with a good breakfast. I had the full English, it was well priced. The bacon was well done just like I asked for. Food was tasty and set us up for the day. We went on a Sunday morning. It opens at 8am which I think is amazing. Nice plants in the windows, nicely presented place. The staff are great, even the chefs in the back give us a smile. Would definitely recommend.”

“Really great plant-based food. Edit: Unfortunately, the owner has decided to start serving non-vegan items. This means we won't be visiting again as we can go to places like that much closer to home. I will leave my rating as is, because the food was good, and so was the service, but I would never go back due to his reaction to responses on social media - and then his ridiculous commentary in the tabloid press.”

“Karina was the perfect host. She arranged early check in for us to store our luggage ahead of a wedding, she left some cute thoughtful touches in the room for the bride to be, and delivered breakfast early for us. She also arranged for some property to be posted back after we left it there. I would 100% stay here again if I was in the area. Especially to see her lovely dog Ella again! Thank you Karina ”

“Lovely pub with charm, atmosphere and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend as a place to stop and eat”

“Really nice little casual fine dining restaurant. Cosy place, good attentive service and excellent food. The gravadlax starter was very refreshing and the chicken vol au vent tasty. The The roast dinners were good and my pork chop with tempura corn was outstanding very well cooked. Desserts were tasty as well, a good example of Tiramisu and great cherry bakewell. Enjoyed the experience, would like to try the tasting menu next time, not cheap but worth it for high quality food.”

“i absolutely love this place it is my all time favourite. the food is delicious, the waiters and waitresses are lovely and polite and the building itself is gorgeous. i went there for my birthday and they were so sweet gave me desert on the house and sang happy birthday. it’s in a lovely little village and everywhere is so tranquil- especially later at night. i consistently go back to alberto’s because how lovely a place it is. this is my favourite restaurant i’ve ever been to and highly recommend as the food is delicious and affordable”

“Had Menemen for breakfast and it was perfect, perfect amount of spice. Would definitely recommend. Lovely service and price was good.”

“Stopped in here after a trip to the local Blaze farm with our toddler. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and the place was very modern and clean. The food menu was very good with lots of choice. I had a steak and red wine pie and it was delicious, my wife had a fish and chips without fault and our son had a burger and chips. They gave him the option for beans or peas and as he couldn’t decide gave him both at no extra charge which was a nice touch. Not expensive for the quality, service and setting. Highly recommend if you are in the area.”

“Fantastic service and food every time. Turkey Baps were amazing Thanks to Dave, Naomi, Ed and Gill. From all at HCVelo. Great start to festive season”

“The great lineup of well kept cask ales on sale make this a well deserved entry into the 2025 Good Beer Guide.”

“Even though it was a limited menu due to covid, the food was delicious and the service was great. Nice cosy fire to sit by too, which was lovely.”

“Only had snacks and a burger when the music festival was on. Had a great day and brilliant atmosphere. Service was lovely and staff are nice”

“Went past this place today and saw it was back open so decided nip in for a pint & some food. Absolutely thrilled we did! From the moment we walked in we were welcomed by friendly staff, a warm atmosphere and felt right at home. We had our new born with us so always a worry when she starts to play up but the staff/other customers made us feel right at ease. The food was incredible, we had the steak & Stilton pie which was spot on. Thank you for such a lovely afternoon and will 100% be back again!!”

“Lovely little tearoom near the National Trust Wizard Trail! Prices are fair and they offer a really good product range.”

“Not been in here for ages. Popped in for brunch- bacon sandwich ( on lovely seeded roll) and breakfast wrap (bacon, sausage, fried egg and cheese), americano and cappuccino. All really good, good value. Staff friendly and helpful. Will definitely go in again soon.”

“Lovely pub, friendly bar staff & the best Guinness I’ve had in ages”

“Fab stopover in our VW in their car park. Highly recommend - our best stopover so far - access to toilets 24 hours and access to water tap. Need to book table in advance as this pub is definitely on the up. Packed out on a Thursday evening and hugely popular with locals supporting the new owners. Very hardworking friendly staff, good food including vegan option - the steak and ale pie was gorgeous and good value at £15. Lovely garden - lots of seating some under cover, kids and dog-friendly (dog treats available) and lovely location.”

“When I win the euro millions this is where I'll buy all my furniture, carpets and home decor. Luxury furniture and homeware. Prices are well above the usual high street brands but the quality and craftsmanship is felt in every piece they sell. The shop itself is an old silk mill. A four storey building filled with sofas, dining tables, beds, carpets, rugs, home decor, candles, painting etc. You could definitely spend a couple of hours browsing. Cafe was great. Excellent service. Full cooked breakfast was thoroughly enjoyed by hubby. And my ploughman's sandwich was tasty and very filling. We also had large chunky chips that were fab. Breakfast until 11.30am. Brunch all day and mains from 11.30am. Free parking available. Staff were pleasant and polite. Great place to get some decor inspiration or to just pop in for something to eat.”

“Great pub. We were staying nearby for the night, read there was tapas and took a wonder up to check it out. Beer is sublime, best pint of ale I've had in a while. Yes the tapas portions are big, but very nice, so no complaints for us! Beer garden has some awesome views and the sunset was amazing. If we are ever back this way we will come again.”

“Amazing country pub, out of this world homecooked food, very friendly locals, grst bar service and a real fire making it snug.”
