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

Really nice, unusual venue; basically a modded shipping container! Nice range of snacks and drinks, friendly service and clearly established as a favourite place for a stop off for local bikers. Absolutely loved it, and also being asked by one of the other motorcyclists to move my bike as the chrome tank was blinding him in the brilliant sunshine! A great place for a break, although all the customers there when I visited were motorcyclists I noticed that there were racks for pedal bikes and provision for dogs too. Oh, and the flapjacks are delicious!

Great place. Good place for bikers with a good atmosphere. Sadly they had run out of bacon but I had a very nice cheese and ham panini and a latte

First time here today. I absolutely love it!!! The girl that served us was brilliant. She warned me not to leave my leather unattended because she wanted it lol. The food was amazing, bacon, brie and caramelised onion pannier, so recommended. Then there's the cakes, oh my lord...awesome. Thanks, we will definitely be back

One of the only decent bike spots for a brew that has not been overcome by idiots. They do some decent toasties, paninis etc. Every time I go here I end up chatting for hours with other bikers, the Gasket is something that brings us together. It's not just for bikers though, I've brought my toddler here and have seen many cyclists, dog walkers, workmen and people from all walks of life.

The breakfast was cooked to perfection. The place is really nice , especially for friends fans like us and the ladies who run the place are so nice. Will definitely go again and would recommend ☺️

Breakfasts are lush, sausages are delicious and quality meat, decor is amazing and they even offer decaf coffee and decaf tea! New favourite spot for brekkie 😊

Lovely little cafe! The food was gorgeous and of course the theme is spot on! Service was lovely! Thankyou loads will definitely be back soon! :)

Oh...my....GAWD!!! Friends corner has been on my mind since i had breakfast there last week as need go back. Hand on heart its the best breakfast ive had my whole life. Very well done to the girls that run this place. As avid friends fans myself and my wife i saw this when driving past and thought id surprise her with a visit here and it definately fid not disappoint. From the funny cute and very clever theme, decor, quotes and little details plastered all around the dynamic of this eatery from the moment we entered we was impressed and happy. Friends also playing on a screen in when you sit down like bejng at home. The service was lovely the prices were very reasonable and the food.....😳 well... lets talk bout that. My wife had the full breakfast and it was cooked so perfectly. Those were not your average sausage and bacon rashers used they were special and so delicious. I figure theyre butcher meats as they aint no packet meats. I had the breakfast panini, not expecting to much of that but what was presented to me was nothing short of excellent. It was huge, i didnt think i could eat it all. There are lots of other options here also like burgers on the cute themed order board with segmented choices of all the characters. Another great little detail they have included for the experience. Even going to the bathroom there is comedic detail in there too which also wasnt expected. We could of spent all day in there as its a homely feel and puts you in your comfort zone right away. This place is a hidden treasure and needs promoting to the highest heights. I promise if u travel from another anrea to try this its well worth your time. In phoebes words "what a delight!" Cant wait go for another treat breakfast again. So so good!

Went in for brunch today. Nice little cafe and bar, quite busy as well so I recommend a reservation. Appreciate the flexibility on a substitution on the breakfast, good vegetarian options as well. Coffees came out nice and quickly and we really good. The timing on food was a proper disappointment though, people who came in after us with larger orders were served a good 10-15 minutes earlier. Staff are pleasant though, food quality was good.

Great vibe, they had a singer on named Oli & he made it an awesome night, nice staff & great music 👍👍

What a great little place! Situated on the precinct, it looks quite unassuming from outside. Inside it’s very rustic, with mismatched tables and chairs and exposed pipe work. Every time we’ve visited, whether it be for breakfast, lunch or just drinks, we’ve been very happy with both the food and the service. The harissa steak and eggs is definitely up there with my favourite breakfast I’ve ever had. The cocktails are yummy. And they even have a bookshelf filled with books, colours and board games for the kids.

Exceptional food and service. The steak and onion ciabatta was the best I've ever eaten. But you may have to tolerate sweary locals who just dump their kids on the field outside whilst they enjoy a meal and a drink.

Tucked away in Jackson’s Court, between the bus station and Hallgate, this little cafe has earned itself a fine reputation for good food at great prices. They also have a decent selection of vegan dishes to choose from too. Not a huge cafe, but located on two floors, so much bigger than it may look from a casual walk by. We called fairly late in the day at 3PM, the cafe closes at 4PM. And I guess it had been a busy shift. The staff lovely and friendly. But left the impression they had more than had enough for one day. We ordered two different vegan burgers, both had some missing bits, listed on the menu, but not in our burger buns... Both still quite tasty. One dish was supposed to come with curry sauce and without it, it was a little flat. Both dishes cost only £7 each, which is stunning value. Even missing some ingredients! Front of house training needs a tiny amount sharpening by the management. The staff a little casual with customers and their requests. But still great food and great value. With a little more attention to details would easily be five stars. But for the above points.

Delicious food! Really glad we called in today.

Loved the woman working there - she was so accommodating of our orders. The food came out piping hot and was delicious. Chicken was crispy and juicy. The sauces and toppings are unique enough to be interesting but familiar enough to be classic. Fantastic mocha - nice and chocolatey without being bitter. I wish I lived near here so I could eat there often!

I stumbled upon the cafe on a bike ride thought I'd take my Mrs back on the weekend but wasn't a great experience for her 😕 Ordered the soup I had a side order with the salmon fishcakes and my wife had the large bowl, as soups go it was the hotest version I'd encountered (spice wise) my wife couldn't handle it and I only managed it with eyes watering. I made the staff aware of this with no acknowledgement from them as to anything they could do. I would have liked a response from the kitchen maybe being able to cool it down with yogurt or something or a refund for it... instead we got blank faces and left feeling disheartened as every other aspect of the place was spot on 🤷‍♂️

We had breakfast here, a vegan fry up and regular fry up. The bread and homemade baked beans were particularly nice. We both thought the rosti could have had more flavour. Coffee was nice and the staff were really friendly. Will definitely come back. We also took 2 cakes with us which were divine!

My wife and I stumbled upon this lovely place to eat purely by chance, we have been twice the last couple of weeks and are hopefully heading back this week, it is not a restaurant but it seems unfair to classify it as a cafe, it has a relaxed homely feel about it with a phenomenal menu, high class interior that is extremely comfy and very pleasing to the eye, my favourite part of this lovely place is the staff, very smiley, very friendly, very helpful absolutely world class service from all the staff especially the gentleman who I assume is the owner, the Latte I tried is by far the best I have ever tasted anywhere, it tasted to me like a hot cross bun topped with cinnamon, also the sausage and egg on toast was a whole meal on its own that filled me up until Dinner time, located next to the stunning canal in a lovely village in Parbold everything is just perfect about Yours Is The Earth. update, we thought we would go for lunch instead of breakfast this time and the lunch menus is fantastic, we had Spinach, sweet potato and butternut squash soup that is absolutely fantastic, also the steak salad sandwich with wedges was perfect, I can safely say this is a fantastic place to eat, with a very classy tasty menus, staff who always display a world class level of service and a beautiful location for a nice stroke down the beautiful canal matter your food.

I’ve come here a few times and it never disappoints. Came here Saturday afternoon yesterday (five women, a baby, and five dogs) and they made an effort to fit us all in seated inside! Amazing customer service and their chai lattes are great 😊

A super friendly diner with a great menu - I had the Turkish Eggs which turned out to be a great choice for brunch. Highly recommended 👍🏻

Had the Big Yin because I was craving some haggis and needed to fuel up for a big day. Every meat was savory and cooked to perfection. If you're looking for a more well-rounded meal, you may want to get something else as it did end up being quite a bit of meat. The portion sizes are deceptively big for the price, I wasn't even close to getting through it all! The staff was really attentive despite how busy the place was. Would definitely come back to try that Manc Breakfast next time I'm in town.

This place under promises on the outside and over delivers on the inside. It looks like your average high street cafe, then you step in to a quirky cool place to eat. Service was perfect & food was 5 star, definitely worth the money. I would recommend this place for breakfast we had the Manc Muffins and they are better than a McDonalds one.

We regularly come for a weekend breakfast or brunch and wouldn’t go anywhere else. As other reviews have said, the food is amazing and the portions are very generous. Whether you are after something sweet or savoury, there is a great choice and some brilliant specials. The service is also excellent and a special mention must go to Taylor, who is a real star. It is definitely worth the wait if there is a queue outside (and they will lend you an umbrella to keep you dry)!

Visited this place when visiting Manchester. The place is walk-in only at the weekend for brunch. We waited no longer than 20 minutes for our table. The menu has loads of choices. The French toast and pancakes looked amazing. I ended up choose a Full English which was cooked well and had great tasting meats. I recommend this as a brunch place.

Great full English breakfast! Especially the beans, eggs, and mushrooms. Smoked salmon as an extra is also fresh. Sausages and bacon are a little bit too oily for me so I didn’t finish. Potatoes are a bit hard to bite. Cartado to me is too sour (just personal taste). The staff are kind and warm. However I waited for 20 minutes after ordering and I was very hungry. But the taste worth it! Next time I may try a pancake. What’s more, is there any one know what the black stuff on the fork is? It seems like toast but has a taste of meat. Really appreciate!

Stopped by Cafe 19 for breakfast, and it was a fantastic experience! I had the pancakes, which were perfectly fluffy and delicious, while my wife enjoyed the French toast that was just as amazing—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Both dishes were generously portioned and full of flavor. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy, making for a really enjoyable morning. Highly recommend if you're looking for a tasty breakfast spot!

This coffee shop is tucked away near Wigan Pier and there weren’t many people out & about on a Monday morning in February. I wasn’t even sure it was open from outside, but when I walked in I was surprised to find a bustling cafe-restaurant & bar. Despite the tempting menu (breakfasts, bagels, soup, jacket spud, pizza) it was the wrong time of day for food, but my soya latte was excellent

I was a little worried about coming here for a while thinking I might get bombarded with Christianity. Now I've been. I find it by far the best cafe in wigan. I love the people both customers and staff. The food and drinks are fantastic, particularly the coffee. I highly recommend paying a visit. Me and my daughter are regular customers. Looking forward to our next weekly visit.

Pleasantly surprised by this place. It modern with an industrial look inside, lots of benches but some comfy chairs too. The menu is mainly brunch stuff, sandwiches, bagels and salads. A huge bowl of smoked salmon, avocado and feta salad was only £6.75. There were a couple of hot specials on when I visited. Nice coffee and hot drink selection. My only pet peeve is the slow service on hot drinks. The staff are friendly and polite though. Oh, and this place is nothing to do with the church as far as I can tell. Plenty of free parking though.

Had lunch, visiting from Florida my friends took me here, very very nice place, food was excellent service was very good as well highly recommended would definitely come back.

Cosy little coffee shop, stopped by for a quick brunch. Had the salmon & egg on their artisanal bread which was great and a lovely cappuccino. Staff were delightful and attentive, I can see myself coming back in the future.

Great service, a really lovely team working hard in ever changing circumstances. The coffee here is second to none and they bake their own artisan bread, which was so delicious and really made the breakfast. I was pleased to see the egg yolk was a lovely orange colour, which says to me they use excellent quality ingredients. I've been to too many places and been served pale yellow eggs and it puts me off as you know they are just the cheapest bulk buy eggs and probably not ethical or sustainable. Will be coming back here a lot in the future, really glad my colleague recommended it.

13/03/24: had mocha with coconut milk and beef sausage & egg on a white bloomer. Sausage was a little bland, but the bread and coffee were very good. Service was friendly and quick. Also had the cheese & onion omelette on brown seeded toast. That was also very good! I would have liked to have seen a full English on the menu. Parking isn't great, made worse by inconsiderate parkers after we'd arrived! Dog friendly, promptly served with water in a Brewdog bowl! Very thoughtful!

Food and drinks are spot on! Salmon comes in generous portions as well as the soup. They’re both flavourful Also they make the best smoothie and milkshakes! Will definitely go back for different menu Service is okay but atmosphere can be loud during peak times

Superior experience. We came for a soft brunch around 11am since we had some small bagels earlier in the morning. First we were waiting around 10 mins while being seated. Order was instant. We followed advice from waitress and got pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Fantastic combination. Flat white and English breakfast tea is a must have option. Restaurant has temperament atmosphere; staff is friendly; served food looks excellent every way I was looking at; and important thing premises are clean. For me nice place for tasty morning breakfast or late morning brunch.

Beautiful atmosphere. Amazing food. We had a Ceaser Salad and the Egg Benedict with Smoked Salmon on Sourdough. People are friendly. Highly recommend this place. Chicken is halal.
