easily my favourite coffee shop in this city. The coffee's great, the food slaps, the staff are always super friendly and it's generally just a nice atmosphere to be in.

Great coffee shop with great staff and nice vibes. Great attention to detail on coffee drinks (and more) of all kinds. Had an amazing berry infused filter coffee expertly dialled in by Liz just the other day, highly recommend.

The barista is less professional recently, as there is a man with curly golden hair looks like playing with the coffee machine using the milk…… don’t know what he is doing there, but lots of steamed milk foam was poured out. It looks really dirty….. Then he gave me the coffee with a very fake smile, the coffee taste was really very different from its previous taste, very bitter and weak. Don’t think I will give this cafe a chance again….. I’m a really nice person in reality and never written anything in the reviews of google map. Hope this thing helps you improve.

My favourite coffee shop in Manchester! Coffee is always quick and just how I like it. I have tried several things on the menu and am always left super satisfied. Staff are always friendly and having a laugh with each other and the customers - positive and high vibes place!! Also great place to study or get some work done as very laptop friendly :)

This is my local coffee shop, I come here almost daily and the service is always absolutely amazing. Amy, one of the baristas, is top notch and consistently serves a great flat white

One of my favourite places to get some work done while drinking great coffee and eating a delicious veggie buoy. On the pricey side for a "student" place but worth it.

Although the coffee and food here are good, the service is slow, and sometimes the staff are quite impolite. For example, this morning I ordered a large latte and received a small size instead due to an error by the server. That is a minor issue, but when I pointed out the mistake and asked for the correct size, rather than apologizing, the barista was argumentative and objected that it didn't say large on the order. She then made the orders of everyone else in the shop who was waiting (having ordered after me) before fixing mine. The service issues are unfortunate as it's a good cafe otherwise.

Great place. Staff are fab, food is soooo much better and fuller than other "chains", making it great value. Chilled place with good music in the background. The place is filled with people working, chilling, chatting. Lovely place to chill, reflect and drink tea. 😃.

Purchased a takeaway mocha but it took a while and it was served warm. The barista forgot it was to takeaway. However, the food menu was diverse and looked like it was worth trying. This coffee shop is more of a place where you sit inside and enjoy the food rather than getting a takeaway coffee

Good food, poor atmosphere, staff and coffee. Outclassed by Takk a few doors down in every metric, any everyone knows it (which is why it’s always empty).

The food is amazing, and the atmosphere is great but something has got to be done about the staff. There is one guy, not sure what his name is, that’s very lovely and kind. Every other person that’s served me is rude. I’m a regular there and I will not be coming anymore unless I’m being served by that one guy. The woman today very rudely told me to order something else because they didn’t have steak and then very rudely proceeded to tell me off for telling her something she didn’t understand. I was also once served by a very rude guy that charged me twice the amount that I needed to pay and the nice guy came over and apologised for it. Please, get your staff to understand that they need to be kind to the people they serve. If they don’t wanna be there - then don’t come to work.

This place is changing my mind about Bold Street Coffee! Previously, I had visited the Cross Street branch and the original Bold Street location in Liverpool, and both times I was extremely underwhelmed by the experience, but this place just seems to be ticking a lot of boxes for a fan of speciality coffee. The Baristas are clearly very well trained, as was evidenced yesterday when I saw a new barista in training during a very busy shift (the idea to give away free cake to apologise for the delay was inspired!). I was delighted to see the team dialling in during a busy lunch rush, and I didn't mind waiting longer for my drink while this happened: it's always better to wait for a coffee which is worth drinking than to get something disgusting immediately, and It's great to see that this high standard it being set for a new member of staff. If you like the more experimental end of coffee then I'm guessing this might not be the place to check out (there are other places in Manchester which offer the wilder-tasting fermented coffees etc.) but I'm increasingly coming to believe that you're guaranteed a very well-made cup of tasty coffee from this particular branch of Bold Street.

I had the worst experience here with their rude staff: I accompanied my friend who wanted to buy a takeaway coffee. I had my own cup of coffee from Pret. We entered there and my friend was placing his order, when the staff looked at me and told me that I should leave the place because I was holding a cup of coffee in my hand from somewhere else! While we both planned to go back to university immediately! Such a disrespectful behaviour!

Without question the best coffeeshop around the university. The coffee is outstanding and the food is very good. The in house sweets like brownies or banana bread are amazing! Staff is friendly and helpful and are clearly passionate about the coffee they serve. Really nice change from all the third wave imitators out there…

To your credit - you did offer, albeit disgruntled, to re-make my coffee... It was, however, still as bad tasting as the first shot you pulled. You drank a sample from my cup and muttered "It's Over-extracted". Alas the shot you pulled once more was the same rancid, bitter and most horrid tasting coffee I've ever had. There are a couple of things that are within your control to prevent over-extraction. Of which they are: Grind size, extraction time, tamping technique etc... Strongly recommend that you go through barista course once more and pay closer attention to the minutiae. Coffee pulling is an art. Study, Taste, Practice.

I am an Australian on holiday and happened on this cafe by chance. I ordered a latte - expecting the standard I had experienced in London ( rating 2-3 stars at best). Here it was as good as I can get in Melbourne. Well done to the barista!

If you ask for a drink to take away, you'll receive a fraction of what you'd get if you asked to sit in. The takeaway matcha that I got came in a small cup, which was a joke. I've had the same drink when sitting in and it came up in a big, round tea cup. A complete rip-off! The staff also don't seem aware of their own menu prices. The price they gave me from their paper list was different to the one on the overhead menu boards though they did give me 50p back in cash, to be fair. The music is also too loud. Given the location on campus, you'd think they'd turn it down a but for students who actually want to come here to study.

I visited here Wednesday 26th July morning! I’m scoring it a generous 4. It was ‘ok’ across the board. The coffee black Americano (as always for me) tasted good but was extremely small for the price. I also had an almond croissant which although nice it wasn’t any different to anything I’d had before in fact I’m convinced they must use the same supplier to many other coffee shops. The service was polite and courteous, but not as friendly as I’m used to but I do tend to gravitate to less city centre locations! Overall it was ok, I would visit again if passing but wouldn’t make a special trip to visit

I was visiting the university and came across BSC as I wanted some breakfast. The menu looked interesting so I thought I’d pop in. I chose the BSC breakfast with coffee and OJ. £21 in total. Wow! The quality of the ingredients seemed quite decent as was the coffee. I felt the service was a little poor. The young lady serving didn’t seem interested or knowledgeable. I wasn’t offered any condiments. I did feel that the sausages in particular and maybe the bacon was borderline cooked through which was a little off putting. I probably wouldn’t go back as there’s so much better in town and cheaper too.

Portions are so small and extremely expensive… £11,50 for a thin slice of toast with a bit of avocado and two poached eggs.. with one crumb of feta! When the waitress asked us if everything was ok , I told her I thought it was quite expensive for such a small portion, though it was very good, she replied with “yeah well you ate it, cost of living huh”. What an extremely RUDE reply! Please have better customer service… also the table was very dirty. I left feeling hungry

Quite possibly the worst customer service we’ve ever experienced. The server responded ‘well you ate it’ when we mentioned the portion size being quite small (a singular slice of bread with a table spoon of avocado) for £12.50 She then proceeded to passively aggressively grunt when I offered to help her bring In the plates
