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

I have been working at a job around the corner from the north coffee shop and found this gem. I’ve come in for a dinner everyday and got no complaints. Top quality food for a very reasonable price. John top bloke and would highly recommend to anyone passing by

Wonderful cafe owned and run by John, who's more than happy taking care of you and sharing a story or two with you. Brilliant host with great character. Food portion size is very good. You'll get a stack of toast with your breakfast and you'll even get your beans in a teacup! Really quirky, and eccentric but an excellent gimic too. Shop is situated on the high street. Good amount of seating available where you can sit and watch the world go by whilst you listen to Gold on the radio. Value for money is excellent too. Thanks John, we'll be back again soon.

If you're looking for a delightful little coffee shop with a fantastic atmosphere, great food, and a wonderful atmosphere, look no further, The North Coffee Shop is owned by John who has many years of experience and makes mouth watering food, he is incredibly friendly and has created a wonderful warm and inviting atmosphere, there is something for everyone and all made with love by John himself. He runs Greek nights also and the dishes are fantastic, with loads of variety. I would highly recommend anyone to drop in and sample some of John's tasty treats, you won't be disappointed xx

My partner and I are staying at the inn down the road. Couldn't get in for breakfast at the inn. We walked down to north's Cafe and had breakfast there. It was delicious. I would highly recommend north's.

I was served by the lovely Denise. I asked for well done bacon and it was perfect. Muffin was soft. She was delightful. 10/10

Jalaen is such a warm and welcoming person. She is easy to approach and friendly. Will definitely be coming back again :)

Come here every morning for a coffee before my train to work. Denise is lovely and chatty and makes the best mochas. Best way to start my mornings :)

Denise is a dream, service with a smile every morning and always takes times to check how the day is looking, she gives me a motivational speech every morning, a real credit to the business and customers a like, keep it up Denise!

Food was fresh, the shami burger was the best I've had, the sausages in the full English breakfast were very tasty, the paratha are proper home-made, not like some other breakfast places where they just microwave shana parathas for you, top service as well. I would say the only improvement they need to make is the karak chai, not enough masala in it for example cinnamon or cardamom to name a few

I was in Rochdale for an appointment and visited this beautiful place for breakfast and I do highly recommend this place, homemade full breakfast and the desi tea is on another level, friendly staff and clean environment… May Allah give them more Barakah in their business.

I had an absolutely delightful breakfast at Khadijas Cafe on Union Street, Rochdale. The sunny side up eggs with toast, cheese, and a perfect cup of Desi tea were simply fantastic! The eggs were cooked just right, the toast was crisp, and the cheese was just right, making for a perfect combination. The Desi tea had an , authentic touch that rounded off the meal perfectly. The service was prompt and friendly, adding to the overall wonderful experience. Highly recommend Khadijas Cafe for a satisfying and comforting meal!🤗😎

This is the 2nd time i have come and i am impressed with the the food it's worth the money and wait. The Desi breakfast is very good Alhamdulila. This is the best one i have been to so far the prata's are huge and very tasty all the Desi breakfast is very tasty

What a great first experience, popped in on a lunch break. Food was cooked fresh and received a complimentary appetiser. From the Latte to the Salmon rice, will definitely be back - great value for Money!

Went in with my son had a scrumptious desi breakfast and hanging green chicken skewer served with chips but got an upgrad with massala chips 😋. The service was spot on couldn't fault it. Will visit again and highly recommended 👌

Came here for a Sunday breakfast..top end food, decent price.. Expectation met and above, can't wait to try some of the other food there. Loved the service, continued to ask if i needed anything and made sure my experience was a good one. Update.. new deals coming into town with cafe two68.. starting next week you can get these meal deals for £8.50

Lovely decor. Good service. Food was good. Chicken tender benedict.. wasn't expecting the cinnamon bagel however I enjoyed it. Coffee was good. Liver shingara I didn't enjoy unfortunately. Would recommend

It's a lovely place, and the food is lovely, The staff are very friendly, the service was good, I would definitely go back again, it's a very nice place.

Lovely coffee and yummy cakes with top customer service too!

Fantastic breakfast as usual, Great staff , can’t do enough for you.

Lovely little cafe in Wardle village. Best they let dogs in.

Happy to have a real cafe in town. Tired of all the expensive over rated coffee houses everywhere. Real food, real people, big Thanks Rachel 😊👍Check out the cakes and pie selection 👌 On Wednesday there's a carvery !!! 😁

Absolutely love this cafe. Rachel and her staff are fantastic and always go out of their way to ensure food is of a high quality. Very reasonably priced for portion size too. If you are looking for a nice little cafe to grab some tasty fresh food then I highly recommend Laughing Loaf.

Absolutely fabulous first experience. Everyone is so friendly. Food is excellent quality and price. And the coffee is excellent 👌. Will definitely be returning.

Very friendly people, had a yummy breakfast sandwich.

Brilliant venue in the heart of town. Easy access by bus and/or tram. Top quality food and drink at reasonable prices, with an extensive menu for both food and drink. Cocktails and cocktails on offer are numerous ! Well furnished with a variety of settees, easy chairs and traditional tables. Excellent service and friendly staff. Love the decor as well !! Highly recommended

Part of the wider 'Loungers' chain, you know broadly what you're getting when you come here - which is no bad thing. The food is good quality and very reasonably priced. You have the option of ordering at the bar, or at your table using the QR code. I ordered using the QR code as I was with my 1 year old and 10 year old - and the food arrived swiftly. We'd ordered a kids breakfast for my son and I went for the 'Lounge Eggs' with spinach and mushroom - all cooked perfectly. The crayons and colouring sheets are a nice touch too! Would certainly come again.

Called here for dinner on a Friday evening. A very busy place! Superb service, friendly staff. Great food, especially the cheese and bacon burger. Fast service as well. The place is also dog friendly. Will definitely call back here if I'm in the area.

Had coffee and cake here with friends. Lovely place, great service and able to order via the app. Really funky decor and eclectic furniture.

Food was really good. I had the small roast dinner and it had very generous portions of meat. Too big pieces of beef two pieces of pork and a big pile of shredded chicken with veg potatoes mash and stuffing

We went Friday tea time, it was quite busy in the pub, dog friendly everywhere except the restaurant part. Decided to try something different from the menu , I had the rag pudding, fries and mushy peas, with a separate jug of gravy, Diana had the chicken curry half fries half rice , it comes with nan bread,cut into 4 quarters, and side salad, massive portions, but really tasty curry with a kick, this was from the specials board, with a veggie option. Great prices, quick service, fantastic food, recommend booking on Sundays it gets really busy, the best roast dinner in Rochdale

Had a lovely meal today . Roast beef in large Yorkshire pud , parsnips Roasties mash and seasonal veg . Partner had rag pudding and homemade chips and daughter had veggie burger and homemade chips. Food was hot well presented and tasty. Staff friendly and welcoming . Will definitely go again.

Large portion sizes. Prompt service with a smile. We had the lamb shank & homemade cheese & onion pie. Both dishes were of a very good standard. It's easy to see why the pub was so busy.

I have visited the Castle Cafe twice in the last few weeks for breakfast. I had the special with everything on plus 2 toast and a pot of tea. It was incredible and the price is incredible to. I watched how hard working the lady was on her own as the other guys Nipped out delivering. I was made very welcome and whenever I get a day off I will make the journey from Bacup to enjoy a great breakfast. Eddie

First time we have ordered from here, but what an exceptional and high standard service we have recieved! The food was fresh and all around amazing; I will 100% be coming again in the future (probably tomorrow) - never tasted food as good as here, would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Castle Cafe.

Excellent food and value for money all round, highly recommended SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESS

Good quality cook breakfast, good service and great value

It was my first time visiting and I will definitely be going again. The decor is lovely and attractive, the staff so pleasant and friendly. We had the medium all day breakfast, my husband with extra mushrooms and I had an extra hash brown. It was cooked perfectly and there was a plentiful amount. The cakes on display are so hard to resist, I have to admit we chose some to take home, too full to eat there and then. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something to eat or even just a snack.

Amazing place to have a coffee, smoothy, meal and pudding!

Me and my husband were looking for a quick bite as it was our first time in Rochdale. This place was kinda hidden along the street, but it is definitely a hidden gem! They only accept cash at the moment but a cash machine across the street was a quick resolve. Upon walking in, the child in me demanded to climb the spiral staircase and sit upstairs. The place is surprisingly spacious, perfect for buggies and wheelchair holders. Its clean and carries a great atmosphere. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Food is top quality and the smoothie are to die for! I highly recommend the pineapple passion smoothie and the salted caramel. Would definitely recommend this place!
