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

Really nice unique cocktails, great singers with instruments and the service is excellent. They explain the menu, give you water and crisps and are friendly but not overbearing. I’ve come back a second time in 2 weeks because I enjoyed it so much! Nice atmosphere and ambient lighting with comfortable seats too

Great new bar, the cocktails were excellent. Had a really nice old fashioned and would highly recommend the grasshopper for a sweet after dinner drinks. Really welcoming staff and a great atmosphere. We look forward to visiting again and would definitely recommend.

Great atmosphere, lovely design, superb live music on Friday night! Above all, the drinks are stellar. Innovative and traditional choices. Had a wet your whistle trio to start with. The strawberry daiquiri was like a jolly rancher. Winner.

Fabulous night tonight New Year’s Eve. Really attentive service great atmosphere and exceptional selection of cocktails. The stand out was the “flight of 3 cocktail tasters”, its genius. You get to try cocktails you would never have experienced. The guys who run it are very friendly and my very best wishes to them in 2025.

Calm, bright and dog friendly. Serving excellent artisan coffee. Cool guys working behind the till. When the sun is out in the morning, grab a pew out front.

Chill , cosy, friendly . The coffee spot the moor needed .

An incredibly good independent coffee shop with a great atmosphere, friendly staff and the coffee is always great. Bonus, they have plenty of choice of retail coffee bags to take home!

Was living in this area few years ago, at that time not that many cafes around and Stomping Ground Coffee not even here yet. Since we tried our 1st cup of coffee here it’s just keep us coming back and it’s never let us down at all. Just one thing I always complain is why are they only opened when we moved out of this area.

If you are in or near Stockport, I would recommend maybe walking by or something to see if it is or will be open. I went to look at this place with the family, but it was not open when Google Maps said that it should have been open at the time (This was twice, if I correctly recall). We plan on walking by it again tomorrow; hopefully, it will be open when it should be so. Edit (15/2/2025): Managed to visit with the family, at an earlier point. Tried the French Toast, and while it was quite filling (due to how much there is), it was nice. Also had a mocha, and it was good. As for moving in the building, it can probably be relatively busy, so I would maintain basic caution, but you should be fine.

The place is not very large, and you need to wait in line to get in. The serving speed is not very fast, but the food is quite good. However, the drinks could be improved—my cappuccino was a bit weak. The staff are very polite and courteous.

Laco Cafe&Bistro is a hidden gem that I visit whenever I get a chance. Even with my limited free time, it’s a spot that never disappoints. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make every visit feel like a mini escape. Their menu has a great range of delicious options, always fresh and thoughtfully prepared, whether you’re in the mood for a light snack or a full meal. If you’re looking for a place that combines quality food with a welcoming vibe, Laco Cafe&Bistro is perfect for both quick stops and lingering when time allows.

Found this little gem of a cafe tucked away on Underbank. Ordered the full breakfast which was excellent. The team here are lovely and friendly. Would highly recommend this cafe.

Loved the food and service here! Highly recommend the Hong Kong Style Pork Chop Bun and Japanese roll cake! Will definitely come back again! Plenty space for parking outside as well!

The best English breakfast I have ever had. Must try the shaken tea and the coffee was amazing. The place is run by bunch of super lovely people from HK. Food was great and in generous portion, the lively atmosphere makes you want to come again! It is situated in the busy neighborhood and should be honored as the hidden gem in city of Manchester.

Such a gem in Stockport. From the staff to the food and the atmosphere, we cannot find anything better. Please keep it up. Must try - their English breakfast, French toast, pancake, pork bun. Hope you stay the same so we can keep visiting

Really good! I recommend people to try this nice breakfast.

A very nice coffee shop, with some of the nicest coffee I've had in a while (big fan of the mocha especially). There is always a good array of sweet treats too, I particularly recommend the ginger and pumpkin slice. Lovely atmosphere, and always greeted with a smile. Seems to be a fair few regulars, which goes to show the consistent high quality!

Welcome CB2!! 👏 Lucky enough to work nearby and very happy to be a new regular! The decor is amazing and lovely to experience in what was a very wasted old building that has been crying out for something like this for a very long time, I've worked nearby for nearly ten years and been in this space through all it's forms and can say absolutely that this is the best I have seen it (by far) and the best service I have experienced (by far). The service is absolutely outstanding and the coffee... Wow! The best I've had for a very long time. Food excellent and super efficient staff. Well worth a visit! Everybody needs a little CB in their lives 🙌😊

Great place and atmosphere. Only thing really is having more Gluten Free and Dairy Free options available. Lovely coffee though and the carrot cake was yum! 🤤

I’d rate higher if I could! Adore this gem of Stockport. Mix of homely quirky but with clean cut professional feel. Sarah who served us was a delight, catered to my fussy drink order. The two David’s excellent with my questions and queries. Link loved his Pupappuccino. We will be back! 🤍

Great new teeny cafe in New Broadstone arcade development. Amazing coffee, freshly baked cakes (cheesecake was ace) and very friendly welcome. It is a very small place but we squeezed in with my two young children as we got there early before anyone else! Very nicely done up inside. Bring on the craft beer/wines promised in the window for when I visit without the kids!

Grounded in the North went down a storm at PlannerFest. There was lots of praise for the quality of the brews and cake! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Loved my visit here. The cute café is in the new Broadstone Arcade. Amazing coffee, lovely menu along with vegan options both to eat and drink, and very attentive service from the team in a clean, modern and cosy setting. Tasty looking menu in general, and saw fresh bread and deli items too. I'm so happy this is round the corner from my house, and I can get take out coffee, too. Had their delicious vegan cherry brownie and an oat milk latte 😍

First time visiting here and I'll definitely be back. The coffee was the one of the best I've had, enjoyed 2 flat whites along with scrambled eggs on sourdough and a Biscoff blondie (so many brownies and blondies to chose from!). Great range of breakfast dishes and sandwiches, really well priced too. Service was excellent also. A great little addition to Reddish!

Best tasting coffee in the area, perfect location for anyone getting the train

This is such a nice environment with great coffee, i only visit occasionally but always lovely! Also as a side note last time i was there i asked to borrow a book for my commute and the staff were very sweet and lent me a book despite it being an odd ask. Promise i will get the book back to you once i’ve finished!

Love this place. No fuss, no frills just absolutely fantastic coffee.

Small venue that makes awesome coffee. Great to pick up a cup before and after the trains.

Wow what a place! We’d come up to Manchester for a family funeral and were staying in the area. We didn’t get breakfast in the hotel deciding to sleep in. I googled to see where to get an all day breakfast and this place popped up, so we decided to try it before driving back down south. We loved the restaurant as soon as we walked in. It had a great atmosphere and a divine coffee smell. I’m really picky about my coffee and this didn’t disappoint, gorgeous flavour! It’s obviously a really busy place and we were very lucky to get a table. 10 minutes later they we’re turning people away because they were up to capacity on tables and a food wait time of 30 minutes. We ordered a full feed and a veggie feed. We definitely shouldn’t have ordered chips to share as well, because the breakfasts were a great size. I must admit we did wait over 30 minutes, but it was absolutely worth the wait when it arrived. I always say that good food takes time and this was seriously good food. It was all locally sourced and completely made from scratch, it looked and tasted delicious. The flavour of my pan fried greens were out of this world and to have homemade beans was such a treat. We were able to pick up a couple of boxes of eggs to take home too. We will be recommending FEED General Store to all our family and friends in the area. It’s a great little find. I would suggest you book a table not to be disappointed.

We had 2 Bakehouse breakfasts with coffee this morning at The Bakehouse. Food was excellent along with the coffee. Staff were very helpful and chatty. Definitely going to go back. Also took some homemade Victoria sponge and carrot cake home to enjoy later..Very nice it was too..

Thanks for a really gorgeous afternoon tea x everything was perfect ! Fab sandwiches beautifully baked cakes washed down with real coffee no lose situation ! Laura really looked after us x ❤️🤩

Overall my visit here was great, lovely coffee and cake along with very friendly service. The only disappointment was being presented with my bill exactly 2 hours after arriving and being asked to settle up and leave. I fully understand this rule when the cafe is busy but in my case it was due to close in 20 mins and was pretty empty so thought this was a little unnecessary.

Easily the best coffee shop in Stockport, great building, friendly staff, and good coffee

Really nice and welcoming place with great coffee, friendly staff and delicious treats. The cookies and muffins are really moist and strong in flavour, and the coffee is at the perfect temperature. They also do good “too good to go” surprise bags.

Popped in today, we loved it. Great value, good coffee and delicious food. Family friendly. Staff are friendly and polite. We will be back again! X

Beautiful building, a real hidden gem! It was lovely and quiet around 9:30am on a Saturday. The queue was starting to build by 10am when I left. The brownie had a nice homemade taste, but it was a little dry. I find this is usually the case in cafes, but this was certainly one of the better ones. You can also choose to have it warmed and served with cream when you order. The mocha frappe was also good, but a frappe is different to an iced mocha, so expect it to be sweet!
