All Things Nice in Stockport

Called for lunch after Marple Market shopping. Friendly attentive staff and lovely food. What's not to like?

Great food, lovely service, nice atmosphere. Friendly, welcoming, reasonably priced food, they bake their own bread too!!

Cannot fault the team ❤️✨ they hosted our baby shower today and they were incredible, everyone was so accommodating and attentive to us all! They went above and beyond and the day so special 👏🏻 the food ( as always) was perfect 😍 huge thank you to Rachel and the team

Marple has some of the best pastries and desserts I've tried. They continually swap the menu items so there is always something new to try. I suggest early arrival as the restaurant section fills up quickly and their best pastries sell out.

Fantastic bakery and other foods. The servers are amazing

Took my mum and grandparents here after seeing a few TikTok videos about the place. The food was very lovely, big portion sizes and some unique food combinations. Definitely lots of new things to try there. The coffee and cakes were also very nice. Only thing I would say is it is a bit overpriced. Obviously we knew what we were ordering and the prices but it was still quite costly for the four of us. We had two starters, three mains with two sides, four hot drinks and four small desserts and it came to £100.

A spot of lunch. Full English for Joh and steak and eggs for me. Joh's meal arrived without either the beans or black pudding and the eggs uncooked on the sunny side. Mine was obviously reheated steak, not cooked fresh, and the same uncooked eggs. So we called the waitress over. To their credit, they served Joh a fresh complete breakfast and I didn't mention my eggs as we'd been waiting a while already so I scraped off the uncooked egg and ate my steak as was. Joh's fresh breakfast was spot on. Service was excellent throughout, just a pity the kitchen let them down. As we asked for the bill we were told it was on the house, which was an unnecessarily nice surprise. We gave the staff a good tip instead. Mistakes are bound to be made and a measure of how good a restaurant is comes down to how they fix those mistakes. All things nice fixed it just right. Thank you

Lovely place, had been wanting to visit for ages. Lovely interior, and full house for a weekday morning. Ordered drinks and food still hadn't come after 25 mins (we had a simple order), when we were informed that there had been an issue with the printer so order hadn't gone through. However five minutes later the order came. Food was really yummy, high quality and really loved the items they made instore. The staff were really lovely and we gave us our drinks for free to make up for the mistake which we weren't expecting and was much appreciated. Really recommend the bakery to. Very high quality cakes. My dad was especially keen to try as he is a baker by trade and he rated it very highly - particularly the vanilla slice and cinnamon roll!

I’m sat outside as usual everything good apart from the mind numbing music ,, you would need to be brain dead to listen ,, and if your brain dead you can’t afford the prices ,, it won’t put me off coming ,, but maybe bring ear plugs 🤠

They say "In matters of taste, there can be no disputes" but having been a regular for 12 months I have been consistently and regularly impressed. Breakfasts are quality, a great selection and range to suit taste and pocket, they even treat the dog well (you can tell when people genuinely like dogs i think). I don’t recommend places very often but i would this one with no hesitation.. The only problem i have ever had is getting in as its normally very popular.

Always had lukewarm to bad experiences dining in and getting bits to go here (and attempting to!). The most recent time we were told rudely that they had no available tables (we could see a handful inside and outside), that there was a waiting list AND that they were closing in 10 minutes. When we asked how this made sense we got a very snotty response. Won’t be coming back! The team need to learn customer service skills.

I have now tried to visit the establishment twice without any luck. Both times I was met by a really rude hostess. The first time I tried to take my in-laws there for a lunch but was told there is no space for us. We noticed there was a waiting list but was not offered to be added. Today I tried to take my friend and her little girl for a treat. Again I was met by the same rude hostess as the first time. Today she advised they are full at the moment and took our details to be added to a waiting list and was told the wait would be around 20 minutes. We asked it was possible to wait inside as it was cold out and was told no. We walked around and waited for the call. We missed the call around 25 minutes later and almost immediately tried to phone back as we were walking back. We were just in Peacocks, but no one answered. When we got to the establishment, we could see the rude hostess look at us, disappear to the kitchen and came back again. One girl told us she is setting our table and it should not be to long. Not even a minute later the rude hostess came out and I overheard her telling another staff member to tell us our table was gone as we didn't answer the phone and she cannot give us food. The poor girl came over saying she phoned 3 times and our table was gone. They did not phone three times and when we told her that and advised we tried to phone back with no answer, she started to get rude and flustered. Needless to say we could see two tables open in the establishment. We then just said thank you but we will leave and left with a very hungry little girl. This was really unprofessional and we will definitely not be back! Coming from a small town ourselves and working in the service industry, we wanted to support a local business, but both me and my friend felt unwelcome and was treated with disrespect. I truly hope the owner will have a look into their staff and the way they treat people as this not a great way to treat people. Unfortunately you lost two customers for good.

I have had All Things "Nice" on my list of places to visit for over a year and today was the day my friend, myself and little girl made the trip to Marple. Only to be met by a very rude hostess with an attitude that made us feel unwelcome. We were put on a waiting list due to no availability and when I asked if we could wait inside at the bar - I was told no because it was booked. My little girl was cold waiting outside and we then left to find a warm place. I received a call and missed it, I called back within 5 minutes and no one answered. We were back at All Things "Nice" within a minute. We were welcomed with more attitude and told there was no food/table, because we missed the call. Surely if we were told to go away, it will take time to walk back and 6 minutes from missing the call to being back (as well as me trying to call back to say we are on our way) is not a long enough grace period. The team look flustered and like they were rushed off their feet, which is surprising as the cafe does not have that many tables inside and no one was sat outside. I seat and serve triple the amount of customers in my cafe on my own, so, I do not understand what was going on and why the attitude of team was negative. No one else was on the waiting list before or after us and I saw the list when I returned. No one was sat on the seats I had asked to sit at either when we returned. No offering was made for us to wait inside to keep warm - no courtesy or effort shown from the hostess to offer us to wait by the window where the pastries are placed. There was enough space for us to wait there. I have travelled and lived all around the world and today was the WORST experience. The effort you put on your social media vs the reality - your hostess is letting your business down and you have lost valued customers.

It was OK, eggs were great, bacon was dry, sausage overcooked, coffee order incorrect, but still OK. Total cost for 2 breakfasts and 2 coffees was £35, therefore very overpriced for an ok breakfast.

Went for the first time today and you can tell why it is a popular place, staff were lovely and attentive, food was great and the coffee was absolutely perfect. I will definitely be coming back to try some more of the menu, and especially for the gorgeous cakes.

Coffee and cakes are nice. Deli is worth a visit but the dine in experience is below average. Service is slow and not attentive.

Service was really poor, felt the staff were rude and not attentive. Icing on the cake was the food was average. Been quite a few times and since they’ve acquired libbys in my opinion I think the standards have slipped.

1st Time to this cafe. Food looked, smelt & tasted lovely.

Coffee was good atmosphere not so good.

A very good place to eat and drink. Good service good food. Good for buying cheeses and breads and baked desserts

yes it's dog friendly. the food was spectacular.

A regular for breakfasts and lunches. Good helpings of wholesome food

Everything you'd want from a daytime eating spot

Love the coffee so much!! The breakfasts are amazing

Nice cafe would definitely recommend

What a gem, love it here it's always super busy and buzzing. The food is amazing, ingredients are sourced locally. Everything is made in house from the bread to the curing of the salmon (which I highly recommend) Keep up the good work everyone. Marple is lucky to have you 💙💙

I visit this cafe quite regularly, however the past 2 times the food has being cold, brekkie sloppy and toast dry. There's a tall young lad who seems to always be there and a woman with dark hair who are very friendly and helpful, especially the lad. But there's a woman with an accent that never smiles and can be quite dismissive. I'm not sure if it's because it's always busy that the quality of breakfast is not as it was but its a shame as I will Try an alternative from now on.

Good food ,great service and good welcoming atmosphere.

I finally had the chance to visit for dinner in April 2024 after having been recommended this spot several years ago for its baked good and coffee. Service was exceptional, both warm and welcoming. I took recommendations from the server on options for my meal, settling on the Pádron peppers to start, followed by the Tabouli salad and Lamb Schwarma for my mains. The food was really good - fresh and simple. Table water was complimentary and I loved the flat white. Dessert was a millionaire’s rice crispy to go. As a solo diner, all in was £25. I would return and recommend.

We visited with our baby and some of our family. Some of the staff were not particularly welcoming and the cafe was a little shabby inside especially the toilet!! The food was nice but nothing amazing and quite expensive.

While the bread cakes and pastries look nice, the inside has seen better days and could do with a good clean. Worst thing are the countless dogs on extendable leads sniffling round under the tables and, ugh, doing that thing where they shake themselves, releasing unknown quantities of dander into the air near you. Very unhygienic.

Food and coffee are great. Cafe allows dogs in. Small space and a lot of dogs. Not everyone likes dogs and where food is being served it is quite unhygienic. Also, couldn’t put my finger on the staffs attitude but having read another review that hit the nail on the head, it’s like they were irritated having us there but seemed really friendly with the regulars and their dogs.

Lovely place. Gorgeous date and walnut bread. Really nice food. Only wish there were more vegan cake options which tend to be a bit boring.

We have been here a few times and with family moving into the area, we have come with different groups- every visit has been exactly what we hoped for. Good quality, fresh food with really good menu options. The baked goods are also amazing, very hard to resist leaving without taking a cake or pastry with you! Very friendly staff who are always helpful and don't rush you. Exactly what you hope it to be, relaxed atmosphere and a great spot for brunch, a coffee or a pastry.

Went for Brunch and was not dissapointed. The quality of the ingredients was well worth the price. We had Endlish breakfasts and they were on our table within 10 minutes. Great atmosphere. Looking forward to going back and trying the lunch menu!

Lunch with my friend was a lovely experience. Nice staff, nice menu, and a disabled toilet which is helpful. Dogs were allowed in for the animal lovers though it got a bit noisy at times.

Loved it! All of us were super impressed with our food and got cakes to take away which were all great. I have been wanting to go for a while but have been out off as I couldn’t book (as it’s hard to wait with a 4 year old!). We went for opening and will happily come back again!

I took my 87y mum here & the staff were lovely & the food delicious

Poor value for money - had Moroccan eggs - tasted nice but one small egg for £10 was incredibly stingy - should have been called Moroccan Egg!

Just had 2 Lattes and got charged £7.80. Ridiculous price for a village cafe . Last week they were £3.30 each which is enough to pay . It’s gone up 50p .

Just been charged £7.60 for 2 Lattes . Ridiculous prices for a village cafe.

Was in here yday. Lady had a dog which took it upon itself to toilet on the floor not only a nos 1 but a nos 2 aswell. In a food shop REALLY. If you can't keep your dogs clean leave them at home.

It it's like being back in Ronda. One of Marple's treasures. I highly recommend the merlot. It awakened my buds. The lighting is superb and the wood smelt good. I will be be back for your cheesy goods, soon'eth.

One of, if not the best, brunches in greater Manchester. Superb taste, excellent portion size and reasonably priced! A must if you’re in the area!

Fantastic selection all ingredients top quality and beautifully presented, staff great and don't know anywhere else as good as this we love it here !

The big plus point for this establishment is that it allows dogs to come in with their owners, and will cater for the dogs requirements with water and treats. The food is simply excellent and generous portions. Very pleasant and efficient staff. Altogether a very good dining experience.

Great cakes, great food, great atmosphere, and awesome staff! Been a regular at ATN since it opened and I've never had a bad meal. Lunch time grab and go sandwiches are fantastic all be it a bit on the large side! The Cruffins alone are worth a visit! Just hope it's the pistachio one!

Best coffee shop in the area. Nice food for a light lunch.

The full English and the tostada were so fresh and tasty and it was obvious that really quality ingredients were used. The coffee was delicious too and the cakes looked amazing - but we were too full to try - next time! The service and ambience were also really lovely. Can’t wait to try it again.

Great place to go for meals and treats.

Great place. Lovely food. But 1 member of staff (lady with dark hair, front of house) made me feel very unwelcome. She seemed irritated by me just being there. I was polite and was unsure of the set up. Where to get take out etc. It was busy, and I was clearly getting on her nerves. But she was great with all the regulars. She definitely put me off returning

Bit on the pricey side & staff not friendly on my last few visits

Was quite a bit missing of the menu, but the food they did have was really good. Only complaint would be the chai latte which was almost a glass of milk.

Visit this lovely cafe when In Marple and it’s been really good in the past, both the food and the service. We visited a couple of weeks ago and the food (full English) wasn’t its normal standard, we tried again today and sorry to say it’s not where it was? Not sure if they have lost the chef or changed butcher but the full English has turned mediocre. We said we will give it one more go so let’s see what happens next time.

We’re regular customers of All things nice, sometimes just for their bread and cakes sometimes to eat in, and more often than not for both. Whether it’s eat in or take out the quality of the food is as good as it gets backed up by friendly service. What’s not to like.

Fantastic coffee and a great menu for breakfast, catering for all dietary requirements, including vegetarian and vegan options. Really friendly staff, happy to make our experience as pleasant as possible. We were able to bring in our dog too, which was nice as it was quite windy to sit outside. Would heartily recommend. Currently, they have a festive menu, a really lovely selection of Christmas meal small plates and desserts. Wood recommend!

Visited for the first time to try the Christmas Sharing platter. We’d seen the pictures online and thought we’d like to try that! Got to say it did taste as good as it looked in the pictures but there were no carrots available as they’d sold out. That was disappointing as it’s only a small place and they must now how many covers they’re doing each night. Also I know that they allow dogs in during the day but I would’ve thought at nights when people are coming out for evening meals they wouldn’t allow them in. Also why do people going out for an evening meal feel the need to bring their dog with them, can they not leave them at home for a couple of hours as we certainly do with ours! There were two dogs sat by different tables close to us. One of them started barking when it saw the other dog and had to be led over to say hello to the other one and the other one jumped up at the waitress when she was bringing food to the table. Also the dogs were being fed from the tables. So overall the food was lovely, the staff were excellent and the venue is great but we won’t be returning at nights due to dogs being allowed!

Cosy cafe with amazing choice of cake! Had the best mince pie I’d ever had. Good for a solo trip to read your book in the corner

Best cafe in Marple, go there regularly for delicious food and lovely atmosphere.

Wow! What an amazing place! Food and service were phenomenal. Portions were huge and the atmosphere was so premium. Seemed so popular on a quiet high street. I will definitely be coming back again!

Exceptionally good food in the centre of Marple. The bread and cakes are delicious. I had the tomato soup which was spicy and extremely tasty and probably the best vanilla slice I have ever eaten. The coffee was great and the focaccia sandwiches looked spectacular. I’ll be trying one of those on my next visit. Excellent friendly service.

Lovely place for breakfast. Good gluten free options. Child and dog friendly (although limited space for prams).

I chose this place by checking on Google Maps rates. We ordered Omlet but the egg smell was nasty. The food design was good but the taste was really bad. Also, the service is much cheaper than their price. And also they took our plates exactly when we were near to end. I couldn't feel comfortable there and I didn't enjoy the food. Don't recommend it.

No bakery items on a Sunday.. all looks great on social media but no offering of all the nice things on a Sunday just brunch menu

Mean rocky road and a very nice flat white. Would recommend 👍

Food quality, service and waiting for a table not so good, waited for a table for an hour when 20-30 mins is what we were told, apology accepted, we then waited a further 50 - 60 mins for the food to arrive, however the food is quality when it arrived, I probably won’t wait for a table in the future, but I will go again if I don’t have to wait.

Great service, lovely food and good vibe. Lovely place for a meal/snack day or night with really excellent food.

A treasure of Marple. Food is always spot on, the baked goods are amazing (if you’ve not tried a cruffin yet you’re missing out!) and the freshly prepared grab and go sandwiches are always really fresh and tasty. Great coffee as well and all the staff are really friendly and helpful.

Great food and a brilliant place to take the family. One of the best in Marple / Marple Bridge.

Excellent lunch time menu with very pleasant and prompt service! 👏🏼

Fabulous food in a very professionally run establishment. Nothing disappointed the Bloody Mary was exceptional 👏 👌 This place gets very busy, for good reason, so be prepared to wait for a table

My friend and I popped in here one Friday afternoon after work for a cup of tea and a cake. The carrot cake was absolutely delicious and I would highly recommend. The first girl that greeted us wasn’t very ‘smiley’ and was quite blunt (hence the 4 star review) but everyone else was lovely. There was a few minutes wait for a table which was fine, we were happy to wait. We would definitely return :-)

Its a mark of how good somewhere is when people are happy to wait in the rain to get a table. Service is superb, the food is amazing and the choice of drinks and pastries (again amazing) is spot on. Highly recommended

Only had a coffee and Pain au Raisan due to time, but the place looked lovely and I'll certainly call again for breakfast or lunch sometime. Very friendly welcome and service. Very busy too - always a good sign.

Been in a couple of times. Some of the staff look straight through you and are antisocial, but some are very accommodating. Good place for coffee, had food a couple of times but be prepared to wait an average of 40 mins. All cooked to order though so you’d expect that. Prices are a little high but I guess it’s a sign of the times. Owner/manager is a nice guy.

Beautiful arisan breads and pastries are available to take home after the most delicious breakfast. I had the ricotta and nduja on toast for a change. Perfection! I usually have the full English which is the best I've had anywhere. You won't be disappointed.

We love it here. Popped in today (Saturday, about 4.30pm) for standard great service and a lovely millionaire's slice for our son. To the couple on the table next to us, it's Marple. It's a place with baby change and high chairs. Yes, you were having a glass or two of wine. And yes, I heard you talking to each other about our "annoying child" before you (drunk) drove to Fischer's for your tea. Get over yourselves! All Things Nice is an asset to Marple and guess what, sometimes Marple parents want to go to somewhere nice too (again, in the day time). If you read this, you're so lucky my husband didn't over hear you. Hope to see you again soon.

Was in Marple to play golf, decided on visiting this cafe for a pre golf breakfast. Service was prompt and a good variety on the menu. Plumped for the full english and Americano. Food tasty and coffee good, but a little overpriced for the quality. Some of our party got poached eggs instead of fried and white bread instead of seeded, the cafe did rectify this by bringing out a plate of fried eggs and seeded toast. SO customer service spot on.

Lovely Dropin for a little snack and needed a doggy bag!! Yummy food yet again and well looked after!! Thank u

Wow- just been for dinner here and it was delicious. Shared a meat meze platter and extra sides of chicken shawarma, lamb shoulder and baba ganoush. Finished off with cheese and an amazing pistachio and rose water dessert. Incredible value considering we had a bottle of white wine too. Lovely atmosphere and great staff.

Bring the granola and fruits breakfast please please!! That was just the best breakfast, so tasty and fresh!!

I picked the poached eggs, cured ham on potato cakes as there was too much bread on the menu for me and it was fab and my friends loved their choices 👍🏻

Staff not very attentive. We were waiting at till to pay. Others just came up and were able to pay. Three staff looked at us but dud not acknowledge.

A deservedly popular food venue where everything sold is of the highest quality. We bought a regional cheese and a great loaf of bread baked on the premises and had 4 excellent breakfasts. This place is a must whenever we visit Marple.

Oh my God this place just brilliant. Prices seemed a little high when I first went in but the amount you get is crazy. Went for lunch and had to change my dinner plans because of the size of sandwiches. Quality of ingredients is outstanding. Would recommend to anyone.

Great coffee but had the foccacea melt. Really thick and dry served like a sandwich with very little cheese for a 'melt '

We come here a lot for breakfast so decided to come for lunch…a toastie,and a cheese sandwich…can’t go wrong…boy oh boy were we wrong..the bread was soooo thick we couldn’t eat it all…such waste..the lady at the side of us was really upset that she’d left so much bread..people were complaining their toasties were cold and not melted….less is more…we’d have eaten it all and it would’ve been worth the money…the waste was ridiculous

Great atmosphere and busy for a cold wet Monday lunchtime - amazing toasted sandwich with trimmings & great coffee - a real buzz & friendly staff !

Food was very tasty and very decent portions too! I had potato cakes with poached eggs, spinach, and beetroot cured salmon. It was delicious. I'm gluten free and they can make everything with alternative bread. It was a lovely experience, will definitely be returning.
