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.

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.

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.

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.

Nice atmosphere and good food, although a bit pricey. Pleasant staff. I had the steak sandwich which was ok, but only a very thin slice of meat, and the pesto overpowered most of the other flavours. Chorizo hash was a good option though

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

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.

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

As a Brazilian, I can confidently say that this Açaí is absolutely amazing. The flavors are authentic, and the quality is exceptional. The texture is perfect, and it tastes just like the Açaí bowls back home. The ambiance of the place is inviting, and the staff are friendly. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Açaí experience.

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!

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

Couldn't rate this highly enough. Everything from hygiene, food quality, service speed and general atmosphere is of A* quality, if you've not been here don't even hesitate. Reasonably priced and an awesome selection of food with a warm and friendly atmosphere. Can't wait to come again to this cosy coffee house, thank you.

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!

The food was incredible! The meat was fresh, the cheese was delicious and the presentation was beautiful. The service was quick and non intrusive. We had a bottle of wine as well and there was a good choice. We also had cake after it and everything came to £65. Between 2 of us it was £32.50 which is an absolute bargain! I will definitely go again for bottomless brunch. Best place in Leigh for cakes and the new charcuterie boards.

Just sitting here having eaten a chicken and bacon sandwich. Now eating a slice of lemon drizzle cake and washing it all down with hot chocolate. Absolutely delish. A place you must visit. I have been back here since the previous visit and I have to say, Morgan has stepped up to another level. The new brunch menu is amazing! It took me a good 10 minutes to decide what I was going to have to eat as it all sounded so delicious. I opted for poached eggs on toast. A good decision; cooked to perfection. Cut into the eggs and they just oozed out onto the toast; perfection on a plate. I thought I wasn’t going to be able to finish it all, but I forced myself. The cafe is clean, staff are friendly and Morgan is ACE! I love his friendly manner. He came out to see us and have a chat. He deserves to continue with his success. This place is a GEM. Do try it if you are in Leigh folks. Well worth it and his cakes are delish.

We had our sons first birthday party here and it was absolutely amazing! The buffet was gorgeous and everyone who came commented on how good the food was! Morgan (the owner) went out of his way to help us set up for the party before guests came and made sure we were happy as well as everyone else. I would 10000% recommend any smaller events being held here! I have been previously for afternoon tea and to buy cakes. I know I will be going here a lot more now as I can not fault a single thing! 🤍

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

Excellent as always. Great service, delicious coffee's and food. Very clean establishment. The staff are friendly and really keep on top of things wiping tables down and making sure the tables are always ready for the next customer. All cakes are covered which is very hygienic. What's not to like, the owner knows how to run a successful cafe 👌👌👍

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.

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 ❤️

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.
