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

Cafe Bita is lovely. The owners are very friendly and work hard. All the food is made fresh and is delicious and the coffee is really nice as well. The atmosphere is nice and relaxing and the cafe is very clean. We've been a couple of times now and have enjoyed both visits and we will definitely be going back.

Great customer service, our go to food place with great portion sizing, price and quality for lunch and coffees. Amazing owners who cater to all needs and requirements. Totally recommend.

This place is outstanding!! lovely people great service, immaculate cafe,,,the food is delicious,fresh, great produce and value for money ,great jobs guys see you soon..p.s homemade soup please 👌🏽

Amazing Place, food was delicious and came out quickly. Coffee was really good and they actually added a good amount of syrup unlike other cafes. Atmosphere was pleasant and relaxed and staff were really accommodating. 10/10 would seriously recommend.

Nice cosy micro coffee shop. Barista was friendly and super polite, nice atmosphere, and nice customers (somehow, and this comes from a scouser talking about Mancunians). Coffee (flat white) was nice, and a slice of very tasty orange chocolate brownie. Paid £6.90.

Meant to review this when I popped in a few months ago! I was amazed to see it in Sale Moor. Absolutely exceptional coffee from people who thoroughly know their craft, from bean to cup. Friendly atmosphere (I sat in reading for half an hour). But the main thing is the coffee - easily in the top five cups I’ve had in my life. If coffee is your thing, go!

Excellent coffee. It was totally worth exiting the motorway to make a short detour. Dog-friendly. Not many seating places; more of a coffee-to-go type, but I might be wrong. Only a few parking spots on the same road, but parking nearby was 50p for 3 hours, so not bad at all.

I haven’t eaten, though the peanut butter blondie is calling my name! Finally got round to starting my book and how great is this coffee! It’s so tasty. Service with a smile from the lovely Alex that can hold a really interesting conversation. I just love it here, a little walk for me and a delicious coffee stop over

People in the shop are very nice. Pastry are very very good, sometimes they have even better cake and tart made by one of the owner of the shop. If you are into speciality coffee, this is the best of Manchester. They have coffee from different roasters around the would, they often have some very rare coffee in stock for drinking or purchase. Their espresso options are generous, I have tried a few lattle that taste like black forest gateau in the cup. There is always tons of options of coffee you can choose for filter, I wonder why they can remember the recipe for all those coffee. The last thing you can try is their hot chocolate made from single origin chocolate, it tastes very different from the big band chocolate. I would highly recommend this place.

Great service , top quality pastries and coffee all with indie vibe. Is getting a bit pricey in last few months but cost of living and the competition with Gail’s , Starbucks , Nero I get it.

My favourite coffee and pastry place in Manchester, no contest. The coffee is fantastic, and pastries are dangerous and the sourdough perfect. It's run by the best people, passionate about coffee and lovely to chat to. I spent more time here in Covid than anywhere else. You need to visit here!

This review on Jan/2025 George is very nice. When asking the roasting date, he shows me those quicky. Even though the bean I would love to buy is a little old, he recommends another fresher bean to me politely. 1 year ago review. Coffee is Good. Excellent coffee is also offered. Just only take away, can't enjoy in the house. Luckily, there is a canal nearby.

Came here based on recommendations and let me tell you, it didn't disappoint! Great coffee, awesome food - definitely try the sausage roll (it's to die for!) and great service with a smile! Super dog friendly too with a selection of natural dog treats for sale!

I’m very grateful for this lovely little place on my local walk. There is a lovely shaded area to sit and enjoy the wide range of drinks and snacks they have. There are toilets too. A great place to relax and read a book with a brew 😌

I have a walk here at least once or twice a week. When the sun is out, it's a lovely 2.5mile walk for me each way. But also when the sun is out, it can be pretty busy. Especially at weekends when they do breakfast barms, although sometimes they do them during the week too, and during holidays. Always a nice atmosphere though. I'm actually sat there\here writing this review now, and it's busy with a full spectrum of visitors, and a few dogs. Be aware that if the weather isn't great, the walk can be pretty muddy though. Food is great as are the drinks, and although I've never tried them, apparently the sausage rolls are brilliant. Well worth the walk. Hidden next to the Mersey and only accessable by foot. Nice to look out at the various birds too around here. Occasionally u may even see the parakeets. Prices are very reasonable, and coffee is good too.

Nice walk to find a little known place that’s great for a break up the dog walk. Very dog friendly too. Serves puppacinos too.

Great place to grab and a coffee and a sweet treat. Loads of well labelled vegan options and child friendly too.

It's a great local coffee barge run by Claire and Rob, lots of assorted beverages, cakes and hot snacks. Sited at the back of Walton Park on the canal. The canal barge cafe is located on the canal path between Timperley bridge and Brooklands bridge on the tarmac side. Popular at weekends and famous for their bacon barms. I love their coffee and go a few times a week to break from working at home.

We absolutely love this place and are so glad it became a regular thing on the canal. It's a lovely part of Manchester and the canal connects you to so many other interesting places. We love to wander down on a Sunday, have hotdogs and then have a few rides on the steam train on the park opposite 🙂 The people who run the boat are always friendly and the prices are very reasonable 👍

The cakes are to die for fantastic selection snacks, alcohol is also served so we can have a cheeky wine or beer sat on the the edge of the canal. Rob and Clare do alot for the community They also raise money for homeless charities. Well worth a visit and say hello 👍

This little cafe is one of my favourite local places to go for a bite. I've been here loads of times now and everytime I get far too excited, forgetting to take a photo of the lovely food before stuffing my face! I will remember to take one next time. The family that run Porta134cafe are lovely and always make everyone feel very welcome. The food is great and fairly priced too, hence my reoccurring visits! So thankyou Porta134cafe for the epic gyros and the mountain of halloumi fries I can't help but order everytime. Cheers, Simon (balck cap and tash, your new regular) 👍🏼

Only came here as our usual place wasn't doing hot food at the time we came, so glad we did! My Husband and I both had a sausage and bacon barm, delicious! The best quality sausages and bacon from a cafe we have ever had. Waited a little while for it but well worth the wait and we shall definitely be back. Great family ran business and loved the decor. Thank you :)

Fantastic little cafe. Really friendly welcome. Lovely vibe, can recommend the Spanakopita, Cypriot breakfast. Awesome coffee too. Go visit.

Today was my first visit to porta134. Our food and drinks were lovely & great value for money. The service was brilliant. You feel like you’ve popped over to a family or friends home :) really clean place too. Will definitely be back.

Love Rack sandwich so much!! It’s delicious. Also their good service! Thank you for letting me have a great breakfast/brunch during my every visit.

The most amazing chicken burger I’ve ever had and the Parmesan chips were exceptional too, looking forward to trying more of the menu on my next visit. Very friendly helpful hardworking staff as well

Literally the best sandwiches around!! I would recommend the Beef Birria with Salt and Pepper hash browns 👍🏻

I highly recommend this place and will be revisiting again. I visited here with my girlfriend after really wanting a good sandwich. Quick google search later, this belter pops up. We parked in the Sainsbury’s car park and walked over. (There is a £1 charge). Easy to find on Google Maps. If you park in Tesco you can also walk there easily. The shop is a small, cafe like unit. Really cosy and cool. There is a toilet there. You just go up a flight of stairs in to the shop. They’re quite steep so they’re not disabled accessible. I’m sure the staff would bring it down if you asked though. I had the chicken sandwich and salt and pepper hash brown bites. Both were absolutely delicious. They’re decent portions as well. The chicken sandwich has really soft bread, chicken, lettuce, tomato, streaky bacon, chicken crisps and lemon and herb mayo. Unreal. The hash browns are really crispy but soft inside. Perfect amount of S&P seasoning. I also had a passion fruit juice. Overall it was a quick service and great food. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Cute bustling little cafe in Sale centre. Brought my dad and we were greeted by a very friendly staff member who gave us menus. We ordered coffees and they came quickly. Coffees were delicious, with some great foam art! They had a fresh cake selection in gussy too which looked great Didn’t get any food on this visit but defo fancied the menu and will be back!

Excellent service, well balanced dishes and good portion sizes. Avocado and eggs was very very good, truffle fries had fantastic truffle flavour

Nice brunch. Nice location in the main Sale street. With nice space inside and tables outside (only drinks outside). Steak Hash and Egg Benedict Pull-pork were really good. Steak Hash probably one of the best brunch I ever had. Only issue was our eggs were not runny. The place is new so I guess it will improve step by step.

Had a great breakfast and coffee. Really like the interior and you can sit outside if it's good weather. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Can recommend the steak and eggs!

Nice little cafe on the edge of Sale Water Park. A varied menu but not much for veggies. Amazing muffins and toasties though! Lots of benches outside too and very dog friendly.

Its a lovely little place to stop and have a bite or two. (The prices though, very steep for a first timer 1.70 for two pieces of toast 2.80 for a coffee. 1.70 for soft drink. Overall was really nice to stop and refresh, has bins, couple tables with brollys. Carpark. Picnic Tables, council toilet was very clean, I'd recommend for a day out. Photos are random I took from around sale water park

I have been visiting Sale Waterpark for years for walking and enjoying the neutral surroundings. So it's nice when this little Cafe appears called, Tree Tops Cafe, the food is good and reasonably priced. The Staff are very friendly and helpful. There is Car parking nearby with charging points so you can get a cup of Tea or Coffee go for a walk while your Car is charging. All in all a pleasant little Cafe and this is why I am giving the Tree 🌴 Tops Cafe 5 Stars 🤩.

This cafe is a very nice little place located in a good location close to the shops, carparks and public transport.the staff are very pleasant and friendly.i tried the coffee and even though it could have been a little.stronger it was very good.the food looked good and I'm looking forward to going back to try it sometime soon.

Friendly spacious cafe, great service

Been here a few times food is always lovely and services is great if I had one grap it would the stairs leading to the toilet it just lets the place down it needs attention and toilet could do with a bit more cleaning and a refresh
