Black Sheep Coffee - Manchester Spring Gardens in Manchester

Such an amazing choices for your coffees your not going to know where to start, they have all the options! Really top coffees, good service, nice food.

Just what the doctor ordered, cake and a decent coffee. This is the first time I have visited this brand & was pleasantly surprised .

Food was really nice tasted fresh, Coffee was the right temperature. They also catered to my partners allergies very well and had a wide range of milks.

We visited here twice, once for some mighty fine Espresso Martini's and the following morning for breakfast coffee. Both visits were excellent and thoroughly enjoyed. Took a bag of beans home for good measure.

Tiny bacon sandwich and tepid drinks. ‘Hot’ chocolate i can down in one go and a £4.50 bacon sandwich with one slice of bacon in it

Only one gluten free option o the whole menu - a coconut flap jack. It’s so disappointing that they don’t cater better for gluten free - plenty of veggie options . Being gluten free is a a medical dietary requirement - we should be better catered for. Please do better

3 staff, no queue and 7 minutes for average coffee and hot chocolate from staff in novelty beanie hats more concerned with laughing and joking with each other than serving a very very bored customer. Maybe they were harvesting their own beans…avoid unless you are a hippy and time is inconsequential. Oh….and all drink-in coffee seems to be served in take-away cups! Toilets were also filthy with urine and loo roll all over the floor. Avoid at all costs - truly the black sheep of coffee houses in Manchester.

Attended at 10am in the morning to find a dirty nappy next to the seat I chose. Put in the bin (which was full) and spoke with the staff - cleanup done on a night and clearly had been skipped. Toilets also dirty, no toilet roll replaced and sanitary waste left outside of the bin. No handsoap in dispenser. Dust gathered everywhere and given above felt really unsanitary. Ordered coffee for a meeting which was good but overall experience of the cleanliness of the site made me never want to return. Staff were very friendly and apologetic but clear cleaning protocols not being followed and no cleanliness checks carried out.

Nice coffee. Rubbish service. Coffee arrived after the waffle was already eaten. The de nata had been forgotten whilst 2 of the 3 staff chatted away. No excuse for poor service with a virtually empty store.

We were exploring the city for the weekend and wanted to try what the coffee shops in Manchester were like. The Norwegian waffles caught my attention when researching the menu online prior to my visit so we decided to make a visit on Saturday morning. At first I wasn’t sure if the cafe was open as no one was in, I was utterly surprised we were the only customers in the shop at 9:30am on a Saturday! The two staff working warmly greeted us as soon as we came through the door and was patient whilst we decided what to order. We went for a mango and ginger smoothie, banana and coffee smoothie, double espresso and a brown cheese and jam waffle. In my books, the items on the menu were a bit more out there than your usual coffee and cake cafe so it was a nice change for sure. I noticed they had draughts on the counter and given the location, perfect to catch the early commuters and the after work pint too. The theme and decor of the cafe was great too, and I noticed plug sockets underneath the tables. The lovely lady working brought us our order to our table and we tucked in. I was super surprised that I liked both my mango and ginger smoothie and the waffle. Brown cheese and jam isn’t a common combination we’re used to but I really enjoyed it. Mango and ginger was a bit risky to me but it was incredibly refreshing. The partner enjoyed his smoothie and espresso too. 10/10 will return if we’re back in town!

Do not go here unless you enjoy being treated like a complete inconvenience by the disinterested and grumpy staff, who make you feel like they are doing you a favour serving you! All 3 staff working today (21/10/21) were miserable and unfriendly! A real shame because if the staff were remotely interested in delivering some kind of customer service the place would have potential.

Ultra cool place to hang with exception java, that magic elixir of life. Post industrial vibe and decor which diverse music of music. Limited food offerings but this place is all about the coffeehouse and that's done with excellence

The rain has started to pour and we found ourselves outside this nice café bar. It quickly made a decision to go inside and we are glad we did. It majors in coffee and that smelt absolutely delicious. However, they have the Camden beers on draft and we were ready for one of those. Prices are average city centre but the bar itself is done out beautifully in a industrial Dragons’ Den style place. The staff were really friendly and it was a nice place to pass half an hour or so.

Visited solo on my day off to relax, ordered a smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel and salted caramel frappe. Although slightly pricey, both were delicious. Staff were friendly and overall atmosphere was calm and welcoming.

Nice coffee and vegan peanut butter brownie. However cheese, tomato and basil sandwich, and the cookies were old and terrible. Overall nothing special.

the coffee is great, the cake was good ... and I am hard to please when it comes to coffee... did not get to test the other menu items but I will in the future

I came here yesterday for a hot drink. The staff were helpful. The latte was delicious. There was free WIFI and lots of charging points. A good place to relax for half an hour whilst watching the world go by. I will definitely be back again soon.

Appallingly unhappy staff....hard to get them to crack a smile. Won't be visiting again...found it all very depressing.
