The Best Cafes in Atherton, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

Staff were lovely and gave great recommendations on what cakes to get. Will be coming back again soon x

I regularly visit this charming little coffee shop on my way past. They have a lovely selection of coffees/teas, toasties/sandwiches and a delectable selection of sweet goodies displayed on the counter! The atmosphere is great and the owner/staff are always pleasant and more than happy to chat! It is a local favourite of my wife’s and mine and we will continue or regular visits!

I've driven past this every day and only gave it a try today on a recommendation, it did not disappoint. Lovely little place, and a lovely welcoming guy (I didn't get his name) had the chicken tikka panini with mango chutney, it was delicious, the bread was super fresh and toasted to perfection. Will definitely be back

Love this place! The best toasted sandwiches EVER!! We even ordered extra to take home 😋

Friendly staff, easy parking. A great place for dinnertime and daily specials to mix it up a bit. We always try to bob in if we're in the area. Billy BB Construction.

It's all about the specials! I cook and it's obvious this lad has a passion for it, most places can cook a decent breakfast but with the specials here he shines, from Chinese to Greek and you can see he loves it. He deserves to do well.

I always have a wonderful dining experience down at Food Fix. Food is always top quality and plenty of it. I’m a member of the disabled community and Marcus the head chef always goes above and beyond to make sure I have the best dining experience possible by bringing my delicious food out to my vehicle for me. Much better chef than a car breaker couldn’t recommend it enough 5 ⭐️ From me

Lovely food , the specials are something else , worth every penny Without a doubt the nicest in the area .

My daughter and I visited for the first time today and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The staff are super friendly and the drinks were delicious. We foolishly ordered two lots of different topped pancakes to share. They looked and tasted incredible but were impossible to finish. We have them boxed up for later if we have room. The photos online do not give credit for the sheer size of a portion. They were amazing. We will go back but will order pancakes to share next time.

Excellent coffee! My flat white was hot, creamy and the coffee flavours were complex but not bitter (like some ‘chain’ coffees can be?) Shakshuka eggs with beef chilli were fantastic - spicy, rich, savoury, saucy and the sourdough toast was crisp yet soft, perfect for mopping the sauce - a brunch dish to relish every mouthful! Staff were friendly and welcoming, efficient and made me feel like a regular on my first visit here. Ambiance is good, decor ‘industrial chic’ - the perfect place for brunch or lunch, deserves every one of the five stars 🌟…. If I could give six, then I would.

This is a hidden gem, I only knew about this place as a friend recommended it. Get there early as it fills up fast! Also it's dog friendly making it perfect. A very warm welcome on arrival by the staff and they recommend a new dish. I went with the recommendation and boy I was not disappointed at all. We ordered Turkish eggs and the new dish Pesto eggs as well as loose leaf tea and hot chocolate. Food was amazing and very flavorful would highly recommend both. They also had a selection of deserts at the counter, they looked so scrumptious and I can't wait to try them when we go next.

Visited for the first today and we were very impressed. The team were lovely, great service and fabulous food. My Partner had the Mayhap breakfast, I had the veggie breakfast and then we treated ourselves to the September special of spiced apple pie french toast which out of this world delicious. Highly recommend.

10/10 food and service! Acai bowls are the best I’ve tried in the uk. Not mixed with banana like most places. Tastes just like the acai in Brazil! The coffee is also great which makes it even better!! Staff really friendly and great atmosphere inside, feel like I’m on holiday!

Great healthy place to eat The acia bowls are incredible but so are the smoothies.

The family love the açai hut because they think it’s ice cream (when actually it’s healthy). Great place for brekkie and love the açai bowls and fruit smoothies

I ordered spam and egg on a barm was lovely. Staff where kind and service was fast. Good little cafe nice and homely.

Very nice breakfast.... friendly staff reasonable prices... recommended 👍 Nice brew too

By far the best cafe around Atherton! The food is reasonably priced and is beautiful! On top of that the staff are very friendly and make you feel very welcome. Kid friendly as there are books and a kids table in the cafe 😊 my kids love to be here and always ask to come to this cafe everyday.

A really busy little place with a warm atmosphere. Cheery, bright yellow chairs. Does not smell of fried food. Gorgeous cakes in the cabinet. Actually got what I ordered. Smily staff. Tables cleared in a timely manner. Food nicely cooked and tasty with a good option of variety. Smoothie served with a glass straw, eco conscious

Just visited for the first time and was very impressed. Food was fabulous, great service and lovely place to eat. Highly recommend.

A treasure of a find ✨️ 💖. 1st time visit to La Vita, certainly won't be the last. Beautifully clean, warm and inviting. Lovely staff serving a rich Italian coffee. A good menu too to choose from for our next visit...breakfast 😋 Highly recommended Latest update, we returned for breakfast and it was awesome 👌 We opted for the "Maxi Breakfast" minus the mushrooms and we weren't disappointed, very delicious and expertly cooked items 😋 And the latest review, returned with our grandchildren to sample the waffles...wow!! They speak for themselves, tasty and made with Kinder Bueno and love. The staff in La Vita are amazing, nothing is too much trouble ❤️

Great food, good coffee.pleasant staff.Would have been 5 stars, but the service was painfully slow.

Very clean, pleasant staff, great coffee...

Such a nice quiet cafe with delicious food, couldn't believe how reasonable the prices were was pleasantly surprised such good quality at a low cost. Will definitely be coning again x

Great staff, food gorgeous, home cooked meals, not expensive 🫰 Very clean.

A hidden gem. So pleased for the owners as they have the right ideas and mindset to run a well established cafe to serve the community. Take my son for a treat here he has a waffle with all the trimmings. The place is always clean and the staff are polite and very helpful

A friendly little cafe serving an array of hot food and drinks with a good selection of cakes and other products from Slatterys. It doesn't feel as cosy inside now it has been renovated but seems the space is better used. A small car outside property. Only gripe is it's only open Monday to Friday.

This cafe is a little gem. Always a very friendly atmosphere. The staff are lovely... The food is really nice. Whatever you decide to buy, it will always be fresh and very tasty. Portion sizes are always just spot on. I usually visit on my own, and I am always made welcome. The perfect place to visit, take a book to read and enjoy a lovely lunch.

What a fabulous afternoon in a beautifully tranquil and relaxing atmosphere. Greeted with a lovely glass of pink lemonade. Had a lovely afternoon tea with delicious sandwiches, and mini quiche. a huge scone with jam & clotted cream. And fabulous selection of slattery’s cakes. Staff were amazing - so friendly and attentive and very welcoming. Looking forward to returning soon

Good food at good prices. Friendly and quick service too

Got the parathas and they were incredible! Definitely will be coming again really nice staff cheap prices

A refreshing establishment being able to enjoy hot food and a varied choice of desserts. The lads who run it are friendly and courteous. Best cappuccino. So glad I made a pit stop here. Shall return.

Fantastic to meet you and your team today at the Garstang fun day event Had a waffle made by Sikindar, 10 out of 10. Strawberry and white choclate waffle was delicious!
