What a gem of a place! The food is excellent. Really good quality, cooked to perfection and served piping hot. The home made baked beans alone are worth a visit. Plus, the decor and Frank Sinatra soundtrack in the background give this place a great vibe. Definitely worth a visit.

Small hidden gem, cosy atmosphere. Staff attentive and quick service. We both had burgers, The Smoker & The Texan Show Stopper.....wow. The flavours of both were great, the portion sizes were spot on. Will be back, would reccomend to others.

Visited this place today. Google maps took us to the other side if the river so had to detour, was a bit tricky to find but when at the mill it is signposted. The owner was lovely, friendly and chatty. Cafe itself is a little hidden gem! Lovely decor and a great feel to it. Our food was cooked fresh and the flavours were bang on. Wil definitely return and off course recommend to all reading this! You wont be disappointed. Upon hearing about the homemade pies and sausage rolls he makes we was gutted he had none available. That just goes to show how popular they are!!

Always a warm welcome and even the customers are friendly. The coffee is the best in Manchester. The homemade cakes are delicious but get there early as they can sell out especially if I’ve been in. Ashtons best kept secret.

I visited this coffee shop recently, and I was blown away by the extensive selection of beans available—over 30 types to choose from! Not only that, but they also had a delightful assortment of over 20 fresh loose teas. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making my experience even better. Without a doubt, this coffee shop is the best in the area. Highly recommended!

This is definitely a hidden gem in Ashton, and wouldn't look out of place in Manchester City Centre (except not as expensive!) Really good coffee to take away, plus a really great range of beans to buy for home.

Wow what a lovely clean breakfast, surprised! If you want a horrible greasy spoon this is not for you. The food is great with homemade cakes, pity I couldn’t eat another thing or I would have had cake. The service was definitely with a smile.

Super cute diner/grill/café. Very clean, tidy and nicely decorated. Lots of love care and attention has gone into this place. It’s a big hit with and highly recommended by the locals. When you see their breakfast, you will understand why! Great prices, friendly service. Cracking place for breakfast or lunch.

We love this place. Fresh food made in house every single time. It’s a lovely cafe and the owners are wonderful, kind and friendly people. The food is very reasonably priced. My daughter likes their pancakes better than anywhere else, the adults love the full English breakfast. Would highly recommend you give this small, family business a try. I don’t think you will be disappointed. Great place

Went to Nonnas stalybridge yesterday. We reserved a table which was good thinking as the place was full. It's quite small but very cosy with a lovely vibe. The staff are very nice and friendly. We had the most delicious coffee and a tasty sharing platter (minus the sun dried tomatoes advertised). We tried a connoloni sweet pastry thingy. Far too sweet and we couldn't finish them. There were regulars in who we engaged with good chatter. It overlooks the canal which is very pretty. Highly recommend this place for a lazy afternoon.

Absolutely loved this place. By far the best coffee we’ve had in the UK since we left Australia for holidays. We had a malteser chocolate cake which was delicious. The staff were warm, welcoming and down for a friendly chat. The interior was modern and inviting with such comfy couches. Will definitely be coming back to this place before we leave Stalybridge

The cutest addition to Stalybridge. From the Italian roast coffee to the most succulent homemade meatballs, this place will make you feel like you are in Italy. With a selection of Italian beers, wine and cocktails, Nonna’s has something for everyone.

Went in for dinner with my mum a couple of times now, the staff are welcoming and we were presented with menus on entering. The menu itself has plenty of choice and is reasonably priced. Even though the times we were in was very busy, we received our food in good time. All in all a nice place to visit and grab some food and support the local small businesses, they also apparently do afternoon tea but I cant comment on that as not booked or used it

Such a hidden gem in Ashton. When I come home from Uni, it’s highlight for me and my mum to visit. It’s incredibly reasonably priced, and such a lovely, warm atmosphere. The food and sweet treats and simply delightful and it is a very fond visit for me and my mum. The staff are always lovely and wonderfully accommodating, we just love this place and it is such a fantastic addition to the town 💓

I understand that breakfast ends at 12pm, but think they'd benefit from having an all day breakfast on the brunch menu, as it's otherwise quite limited. I ordered sausage on an English muffin (forgetting that it was a little breakfast muffin), so it was quite small. In hindsight, I should have ordered it on bread or toast to get better value for money. It was very tasty though and the staff were pleasant. My Americano coffee was lovely too.

Stopped by for a drink and some food before hitting the market. The food was ok but I wish they would have swapped some of the items we couldn't eat due to dietary requirements for something else but apart from that it was nice and the overall service was fantastic.

What A Beautiful place to be🫶🏼 First impressions on arrival was WOW! So clean , well decorated and beautiful feel to the place ! Was served by the manager Nicky and young Dave who was so friendly and kind ! They both took a real interest into mine and my boyfriend’s day ! Now to the food ! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! Cooked by a young woman called Beth she was so lovely and kind honestly couldn’t do enough for us ! Always had a smile on her face and could see she hacked the pressure of the bistro getting quite busy . Me and my boyfriend both had the full English and you could tell it was well cooked with good quality food ! Will definitely be returning !

We had a lovely brunch at Food and Thorn. We arrived early and were the first people there and were greeted with kindness from all staff. The service was super quick and all of the staff were lovely. The food and drinks were delicious and fresh, and there was a fabulous range of options to choose from (lots of vegetarian options and gluten free bread available too!). Will definitely be returning 😁

Was nice, but took 45 minutes for 3 meals. The Mediterranean eggs were bland, not much flavour, did taste nice though and the eggs were over cooked and not poached, the omelette was tasty but over done, ordered a sausage butty with no butter and was given one with butter so after 45 minutes of waiting had to wait longer. Teas and coffees were lovely, nice enough staff, will go again as the menu has some lovely sounding dishes. One more shot!!

Googled dog friendly places near me as I was meeting a friend who had small dog with her The place was lovely and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Great menu, big selection of very lovely looking cakes but I managed to resist those. Food was lovely, well presented, delicious and served surprisingly quickly. Raised our spirits on a very soggy Tuesday morning.

Love this wonderful bistro. There is a warm, friendly, welcoming ambience, as there is inside the Seraphina to which it is attached. The menu is varied and the food is always excellent as Nikki and Dave use only quality ingredients. Would thoroughly recommend. You will not be disappointed.

Always a welcome break after a long walk. The staff are very friendly and the food is nice. It is well organised due to Covid lockdown. The Cafe has a good system in place to maintain social distancing.

A lovely cafe with welcoming staff members. They are in the perfect spot for a bite to eat at the end of your walk. They accept cards as well as cash and the prices are reasonable. A Kelly's ice cream on a nice cone was £3. There are toilets too. Parking can be difficult on weekends but we've never struggled in the week

Quirky little cafe. We came here for a walk around while in Manchester and decided to grab breakfast here before going into the park. The women were super friendly. Great menu. I got the breakfast barn and my partner got the bacon barn. Both were really good and plenty of fillings with a good spread of butter throughout. Coffee was always very good from here. Nice atmosphere in the cafe. Would definitely recommend coming in for breakfast before going on your walk

I've not visited Ashton town centre in over 6 months but whilst there today I called in to get my lunch. I can't believe that I had forgot just how good the food is from here. The prices have increased since my last visit but in fairness for the quality of food you receive in comparison to other takeaways, there will be no complaints from me about the price increase. The price is competitive with the other takeaways but the quality of the food and the ingredients is superior. I would love seeing this place open serving this food until 10pm because it would do well. There are very few places locally that give this quality of food and the service is very good. Since the Covid situation, I suspect that this would have had a huge impact on the business in terms of loss of revenue due to them not being allowed to operate as a Cafe. There is one simple rule for people to follow and that is use it or lose it. The food is always freshly made and is the best quality. The flavours and choices are excellent and in my opinion it is still one of the best eating experiences you will have from the Tameside area. If you have not eaten here before TRY IT OUT AS THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS and you will not be disappointed! EAT LOCALLY...SUPPORT MOZAIC and you will be served superb food!
