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

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

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!🤗😎

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 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

What an amazing little friendly cafe. Food was lovely, not at all expensive. Me and my wife will definitely be calling in again soon.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

Love it here, set in a little village. Food is always fresh, hot, and tasty.. and the staff are warm and welcoming. Never had a bad experience.

Denise is fantastic, Very friendly and super fast which is what you need when you only have 2 minutes for a brew before your train

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!

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 :)

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

I've been hearing about this must try new Café in Rochdale and it certainly lived up to expectations. Menu is elegant and simple with food choices to suit all taste buds. The place looks amazing. The staff were especially friendly. My Smoked Salmon Benedict was exquisite and the French Toast my wife ordered was delightful. My hazelnut coffee tasted better than Costa's coffee. I'll definitely visit again to try more. Thanks for looking after us today.

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

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

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!

Me and my partner went today and she ordered the steak and onion baguette (and she's a fussy one when it comes to steak), but she loved it. I ended up having the double 1/2lb cheese burger and man it was great, struggled with the chips thou. The customer service is great and friendly smiles and chit chat. Overall a fantastic place.

Fresh tasty and very large portion of Breakfast. Nice and clean place too. I don't think you will ever find cheaper breakfast than this. I will be going there again.

Great little cafe. Food and service great. Highly recommended.

Really good food here and the staff are nice too

I come to this dessert place quite often as Heavenly is a franchise which is quite popular, and it’s one of the few dessert places in Rochdale open till quite late. I usually come in the evening on a week day to avoid the weekend rush. This place is 100% halal. This time, we came on a Monday night at around 6.30pm. There were no customers present other than my friend and I. We didn’t mind it being quiet, and we were able to choose where we wanted to sit which was nice. There were three people serving us, and it didn’t seem like they were taking phone call orders, so it seemed quite chill. I didn’t want anything cold as it was already cold outside. I asked for the Berry French Toast, but without the ice cream. When I said this to the female server, she looked at me in confusion and didn’t understand this simple change. Instead, I asked for whipped cream, and she said that would be a valid alternative to the ice cream. I also wanted a hot drink, so I asked about whether any of the hot drinks could be made decaf. She replied “Sorry, I have no idea”. Surely, you make the drinks from scratch and should know what goes in them. Because of her lack if understanding of what I wanted, I ended up choosing the Limited Edition Macadamia Hot Chocolate. I knew ordering a hot chocolate would be loaded with sugar, but what choice did I have? My friend ordered a Make It Yourself pancake stack with fruit and ice cream. My friend also got the Limited Edition Waffle Latte. We waited at least 20 minutes for the food to come. The first thing that came was my friend’s latte. It was served with a heaping of cream and only half the glass was filled with the beverage. Not worth the price in both of our options. The cream started to melt and the food came at last 10 minutes later. During that time, one of the servers were on their phone, while the other started to take another table’s order. We wondered whether they had forgotten about our desserts. I was disappointed with my order (please see photos). The servers forgot about my whipped cream, and the french toasts were drenched in jam. It looked like something I could have made at home. The hot chocolate was tasty, but again, the glass was only half full and loaded with cream. It was also extremely sweet, and tasted more like chocolate praline than macadamia. I wouldn’t recommend this drink if you don’t like overly sweet beverages. My friend’s order was decent but she said it tasted average - nothing special. Overall, I had an interesting experience at Heavenly Desserts last night. Other times I’ve been, the staff have been more present and have expressed better customer service. I would come again, but perhaps next time, I would be more specific based on what I want, and I would probably speed the servers up if they take too long. Other Heavenly branches, like in Manchester, have better customer service and the desserts are always served beautifully. I would highly recommend you go if you have the chance.

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.

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.

I eat here quite regularly especially on a Sunday. It’s the only place in Rochdale which does a great selection of meats and you get a great selection of veg. Everything is always piping hot and you also get an extra boat of gravy! I would def recommend for the best value for money. Booked again this week !

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

We were served by Estelle, she was very pleasant & attended to our every need. We had afternoon tea, which was delicious & plentiful. The cakes that we couldn't manage, were brought home in the box provided. Would definitely recommend & will be returning.

I love Healey Dell Tea Rooms sooooo much. Been many times and staff are always so friendly, food is excellent and the venue beautifully unique (I love it so much that I actually had my afternoon hen do celebration here back in 2018 🥰) Today I had the amaretto coffee cake which was absolutely amaaaaazing 👌👌👌 Honestly one of the best cakes I’ve ever had. And I eat a decent amount of cakes… I also had a chrysanthemum flowering tea which was really delightful. Fragrant and delicious. Watching the flower unfurl in the clear tea pot was lovely too. 10 out of 10 every time. A must visit 🫶✨

Stunning little restaurant with a tasty food! We ordered soup, burger and apple crumble. Everything was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good meal, free parking and a nice walk!

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.

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

Love this place! It's the main go to for my family and friends - great food, great atmosphere, a variety of options to suit different tastes and budgets. I love that you can have a coffee or a cocktail, a quick breakfast bite of a full course evening meal! Perfect for most occasions!

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.
