Well, I didn't know this little gem of a cafe was here! I've started a new job so think I will be here often. I ordered a chicken, tomato and advocado sandwich. It quickly arrived with a side of crisp and fresh salad. Only £4.20! Absolutely beautiful!

Decided on this place for breakfast for staff (GAP Group), First time ordered and OMG has to be the best breakfast sandwich i have had in a long time, full of flavour, fresh and hit the taste buds 100mph!! Also comes with a wam friendly atmosphere., would certainly order again and recommended if you are looking for quality food on the go, whether eating in or takeaway. Thank you to all at Wheat & Bean.

What a nice place to come, have breakfast and relax. This is my first time here and it was a nice ambiance. The food and coffee were amazing. We had the pleasure of having Kate and Laura assist us. They were very attentive. I definitely recommend this place if you’re ever in to Manchester.

Went for brunch today at Ezra & Gil (Helper and Happiness) Hilton Street Manchester. Our server was Kate, she was very helpful and let us change scrambled eggs for poached on 1 of the brunch orders. We asked for the drinks to come with the food so you don't get the drinks first, and then have to order more she was very concerned if we had any allergies, which was excellent. We ordered French toast which was amazing, and 2 breakfasts, the scrambled eggs were the best my wife has ever had and my poached eggs were nice and runny, the food came quickly and was very well cooked and hot Dog friendly always a bonus, lots of high chairs were also available for young families, great mix of customers, both old and young, you can also buy their products , coffee beans and bread, takeaway also available, recommend checking this establishment out, you can also get alcohol .

Came for brunch this morning and have to do a special shout out to Abbi, who was so accommodating and lovely! I'm 35 weeks pregnant and she went above and beyond and even though it was so busy, she found me somewhere to sit whilst waiting and even made sure I got a suitable table plus providing service with a smile! The food and coffee was fab too!

The design is perfect, the concept is perfect the presentation is perfect. Despite the fact that they’re busy especially on a Sunday, the waiting time for your food is short. The coffee is good (most coffees in Manchester tastes stronger compared to London but this place was good!) I’d say this place is a must visit if in Manchester!

It was my first time visiting and it definitely will not be my last! Me & my partner were seated quickly with a warm welcome and explained the menu and how to order. The bloody Mary’s were to die for, possibly the best I’ve ever had! The food was fresh and delicious and always served with a smile, worth every penny!

The event was a huge success, and we’ve received glowing feedback from the entire team. Thank you for helping make our celebration so memorable and special.

We had a private dining for our wedding celebration which was so great, the foods were so tasty and presentable, the decorations of browns is fabulous. The staffs were so helpful I would like to compliment especially Sarah and Marco, Sarah was so kind and helped us to prepare the decorations she provided things as we requested which made me blown away. Marco was so nice and helpful and kind. The service from Browns made our big day special and remarkable

We enjoyed the private dining experience with Marco as our waiter. We had canapés to start, followed by the three course menu. The food was delicious. There was a nice choice of drinks so our guests all had options they liked. Special thanks to Marco who really went above and beyond to look after our guests & us. Marco is a real asset to the Browns Team.

Absolutely superb place - set in an old historic bank with plenty of marble lining the walls, this is an iconic location for a meal or simply a drink. The service was second to none. We had a friendly bar tender, Oscar, who just made things easy for us. We had the 2 courses for £18.95 menu; effortlessly delicious. Highly recommend

Food was amazing. Had the valentines menu. Well worth the money. Staff was amazing. Heidi kept us topped with drinks. Didn’t have to wait at all really for any part of the evening. Live pianist was a great touch. Stunning building and unique architecture. We’ll work the splash for the experience of this place.

Lovely little dog friendly cafe. They do a range of toasties which are delicious. Hot drinks were mediocre. Paper cups and plates when dining in, but it’s a nice little pit stop.

This is a small cafe with tables to sit on both indoors and outdoors. There is a public bathroom here. I came to but a drink twice and met a really nice person who served me with kindness and care. The place was clean and tidy. It is right next to the main car park, and is wheelchair accessible.

Wanted to give the guy who was working today (05/10) some recognition :) Visited for coffees at around 12.30pm and the café had a queue out of the door. The young guy who was running the place on his own was so brilliant. He was multi-tasking like I've never seen, but keeping such a calm and friendly air about him. He seemed to get everyone's orders spot on and was taking good care of hygiene too.

I recently visited Sugar Junction with a friend, and we had an absolutely delightful experience! 🥰 Lavender Latte ☕️ This was a highlight of my order. The latte had a beautifully subtle floral aroma without being overpowering. The balance of sweetness and lavender notes was spot on, and the creaminess of the milk made it incredibly comforting. It’s definitely a must-try for anyone looking for something unique yet satisfying. Scone with Cream and Jam 🥯 The scone was fresh and had a perfectly crumbly texture that paired excellently with the thick, rich clotted cream and fruity jam. Each bite felt like a little bit of heaven. Ambiance & Service ✨ The cafe itself has such a welcoming and warm atmosphere. The staff was friendly, and attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, Sugar Junction delivered delicious drinks, heavenly scones, and a relaxing ambience on every front. I can’t wait to go back and try more from their menu! Highly recommended. 🌟

Probably one of the best cafes within NQ! I’ve been a regular for almost a year and the service never fails to disappoint! The staff are very friendly and attentive. They serve the best hot chocolates and probably one of the best brownies within Manchester! Would definitely recommend this cafe to anyone.

Such a lovely atmosphere and cute vibe. I bring my mom to enjoy the afternoon tea and it was perfect. I loved the scone so much. It was fluffy and perfectly match with cream and jam. I also loved the brunch and rest of the cake and tea as well. Definitely recommend🥰

Had lovely afternoon tea, maybe should have ordered one to share!! The cafe is quirky but worth a visit. Our only small negative is we wished we had been asked which cake we would like, pistachio is not my thing.
