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

Great Ray treat everybody special well worth a visit .I like the Sausage egg on toast take out

Nice small cafe on Moston Lane. I had a sausage and egg bap and a large americano. The food was made quickly and was tasty. The only let down for me was a non runny egg, but then that's personal preference. The coffee was good strong coffee. I had takeout however the setting is nice for the area and I would have been happy to eat in. Just missed the 5th star as no English mustard.

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.

Busy Saturday morning but we was seated quickly. Juices were fresh and food was delicious. Only disappointed was the coffee it tasted like they was form vending machine which was quite surprising.

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

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!

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.

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!

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!

So good we came here 2 days in a row! I found this location through google due to the high star rating and the super picture perfect food. But its not style over substance. It tastes as good as it looks! The first morning i had apple cinnamon French toast and my husband had chocolate chip pancakes. I had pancake envy and wanted to try the pancakes so the second morning just before our drive home i had the berry pancakes and my husband had the oreo french toast. Both sets of food were exceptional! The service was brilliant and a lovely lady even remembered us discussing where we were going the day before. We wouldnt hesitate to visit again! Highly recommend a trip if your in Manchester!

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!

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!

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)!

Oh how grateful I am that my friend introduced me to this gem of a café! Not completely hidden, nor too noticeable, it is a perfect place to get your work done or relax with a friend. For this visit, I opted for a masala chai with milk. The service is efficient and your items of choice are brought to your table. Staff are kind and accommodating to your every need. I enjoyed the atmosphere and will definitely be visiting more often, perhaps to also try some of their baked goods !

This is one of the coziest coffee shops in Manchester. Located in an old converted cotton mill, the place has a nice bit of history to it while serving really great coffee in Ancoats. It’s also where they roast the beans. The Manchester coffee scene is thriving and Ancoats Coffee Co is one of the best ones out there.

We visited today and enjoyed one of the best coffees we've ever had! Warm, welcoming atmosphere, fantastic service from the lovely staff, plus it's dog friendly... ideal for us!

Visited Ancoats Coffee for the first time this month, and let me tell you, I am not disappointed. The staff is very polite, professional, and welcoming. It's a very cosy place and love the seats, by the way, good music and a good selection of items in their menu. Truly recommended it if you want to go for good and simple breakfasts or during the day for a snack or a regular drink.

Sitting down for a classic British afternoon tea, I soak in the cozy atmosphere. A rich chocolate cake pairs perfectly with my coffee, making for a delightful treat. The staff are welcoming, and the warm, charming setting adds to the experience. A lovely way to spend my last afternoon in the UK.

What a wonderful place to enjoy afternoon tea, celebrating my 60th with my friend; Sally. The building is beautiful, with so much character and atmosphere is lovely and relaxed. Ida was so nice and attentive, customer service is five star. We would highly recommend a visit, plus it's close to the vibrant Canal Street, shops and bars in the City Centre too. Perfect, Thank You Julie x

What a lovely interior this place has. We had the Hatters afternoon tea - it was tasty and the just about the right amount of food - you have a nice selection of teas as well as a decaf option. They even serve brunch too like smashed avocado, eggs and salmon etc. The staff are fabulous and really went out of their way to find space for me when I needed to come in earlier. I live in Liverpool but will be coming back again to try the brunch and more afternoon tea. My mum loved the place too - she said it felt magical!

This is my first time having an afternoon tea. I love the theme, the food was delicious, freshly made and the scones was lovely, warm and not dry. I had the queen tea one and the pot of tea gives you three cups full. The server who served me was lovely and friendly 😊 I would come back to this place again and would recommend this place. 👌 Thank you.

In Manchester at a concert last night and searched for local cafe for breakfast. Reviews were great so headed over this morning. Don’t be put off with location and builders coming and going. We managed to park ok. Small breakfast and cup of tea £6. Bargain. Cooked perfect and I’m a food snob and like good food. Tea - proper cup of tea and made perfect. Staff super friendly place lovely and clean. Pay a visit if you want a good quality cooked breakfast.

Prices for food are very good. Got a large breakfast which I fully enjoyed. Wait time is a little long but food is freshly prepared so didn't mind the wait. Staff are friendly.

Absolute brilliant breakfast cooked to perfection… I will definitely come back here again I will even go out of my way to come back for food especially as I can park my 14 metre vehicle near by

First time trying this place but will be back no doubt. Tried the large breaky and it was lovely , the sausage looked a bit anemic but they were the highlight, Nice and firm with no nubbles of fat in them. Egg was done perfect and the rest of the dish was eggscellent. It wasn't swimming in grease. And the fried bread was done to perfection and not a sponge of grease. Also the cup of tea with two sugars was lovely and full of flavour. Will try the monster breakfast next time Highly recommend this place over other shabby cafes.

Lovely lovely place, delicious food and really good staff. Food was quick to come, huge portion sizes, and really attentive about allergies, triple checking for me when I had questions about the menu! :)

The food is brilliant and the place is popular for good reason... But I feel the need to highlight that the Irish chap (possibly the manager?) creates an atmosphere of stress that rubs off on customers. It's marred quite a few of our experiences in Playfoots, unfortunately.

Came at 1pm on a Tuesday. We had the Jerk Mutton bagel and the KFC Bagel. Both were fresh, hot, juicy and incredibly tasty! 100% will be back

Hosted my friends baby shower in the room upstairs. Service and food was amazing. Allowed access 30 mins before to set up and decorate and the team were super helpful. Communication leading up to the event was spot on.

What a shock this place is on an industrial estate in wythenshawe ! The staff, cleanliness and food is first class! Go take a look! big industrial unit, very modern funish8ngs and also a community shop with great deals! We were shocked and going back this week, and our favourite place to eat and the food prices and drinks are unbeatable for the price! it's worth a trip 💫 ps also fantastic to find a place that isn't worried about this being a christian founded operation built on Christian values, helping people get back on course, brilliant in times where we find the faith of our country attacked daily even by the leader of the Christian church in the uk.

Food was tasty and well presented, staff attentive and friendly, lovely calming environment 10/10 would come back 🤞🤞

Worked a project next door and visited the cafe for a hot drink and relax after I’d finished filming. The volunteers behind the counter were friendly and welcoming, engaging and the Hot Chocolate I had was 10/10. Highly recommended!

Best breakfast I had in Manchester, and we tried many (including the famous ones). Toast with beans and avocado salmon were incredible, with eggs poached to perfection. To end on a perfect note, we had filtered Costa Rican coffee, what a delight!! Not to be missed, would count the days to come back

The food is highly Instagrammable, very good presentation. In terms of taste, it was good, though not particularly unique. The salmon and avocado toast had a generous amount of smoked salmon, which I liked a lot.

This is a small to medium brunch place servers very tasty food. We tried french toast with pistachio ice cream, ricotta pesto sandwich and smashed avocado toast. All tasted amazing, service was quick and the staffs are very friendly.

Devine food and very welcoming staff. The prices are decent and food is absolutely great. From our point of view the place could do with a revamp to make it as good looking as the food served. Anyway, we’ll defo come back here again if we’ll have the chance to.
