Cafe @ Woodend Mill in Tameside

Hidden gem on the warmco industrial park! Local produce, friendly local people who run the cafe. Spontaneously decided to go out for lunch and decided to go here, and we were not disappointed. We were told there would be a 30 minute wait on food however the staff could not have been more accommodating and it was worth the wait! We had the lamb gyros flat bread and fries and the special fried chicken and fries. When it is homemade produce like this, it explains the wait but also the quality when it arrives on your time. Big hearty portions, and 2 drinks and a freshly made sausage roll from the fridge, all for £25 ! Absolute bargain, and what made it better was the service we received with a smile 😃. Thank you so much for a lovely lunch, we will definitely be back again ❤️

First time here, won't be the last. Beautiful food and the staff are sooooo friendly. Such quality food and very very reasonably priced.

Top notch breakfast. Strongly recommend.

Eaten here many times, always good. Great for sit down or take away

Food is really nice for a good price and the actual inside of the restaurant is really nice. The owner is also lovely.

Lovely food. Relaxing atmosphere. Very good price.

Hey the coating on that chicken was absolutely amazing. Just melted in the mouth and that sauce, just wow.

Highly recommended, even thought it’s a little out of the way. I attended a fantastic embroidery workshop, hosted by embroiderer Vicky, and supported by her dad Gary…the lovely staff member showed me around this cotton mill. A fantastic atmosphere for aspiring and established artists…I’ll be coming back soon 🦋

Visited the cafe today for the first time, definitely not the last! Local gem, it’s a bit hidden but the atmosphere is cozy and there’s a great variety on menu :) fab food, good value, the service was quick and staff lovely

The paper bags are not ideal with gravy as it soaked through.Perhaps provide a cardboard plate for wetter meals.Good variety on menu. Attentive staff

Very nice cheese burger and chips visited with my daughter and her friend.

Lovely little cafe and the food is just amazing. I’ll definitely be back to try some pies thank you

salt pepper chicken and chips are amazing

Was working round here for a month and found this cafe, great food and service went everyday!

First visit today, will deffo not be our last, fantastic food and great price. See you soon

Went for birthday tea with family - really enjoyed the burgers - great food - great value - will definitely be going again

Will definitely be coming again. Fabulous food, fabulous atmosphere and fabulous service *****

Had the cheese burger and Philly cheesesteak. Both incredible. Really enjoyed the food. Service was great too. Highly recommend going if you’ve yet to try it.

Half the breakfast was cold 🥶 and took to long in serving, not worth the price.

Some of the best food I've had in quite a while. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and made sure they had our orders correct before leaving the table. You do have to pay as you go on card when ordering but this isn't a problem. The food was simply delicious. I had one of the burritos with pulled pork on and it was amazing. It came with fries that were seasoned lovely. We would definitely visit again and highly recommend it to anyone who loves a better class of burger, burrito or loaded fries. The prices are also very reasonable compared to other places and you get a decent portion.

We have been wanting to try this place for a while so decided to go today. My goodness, it does not disappoint. The food was absolutely amazing and tastes so good. The food was well presented and really fit in with the American theme. The girl who served us was called Matilda and she was so attentive and lovely. She is a real credit to the owner! Will definitely return that is for sure!

Flavour combinations are just so good. And always has some great tunes on.

Amazing food, best burgers I’ve had. Service is great and prices are reasonable. My new go to place for tasty food.

Our go to place for smoke house food. Proper tasty and at a great price. Keep on doing what you do best Phil

Lovely cosy little place. Excellent pulled pork hoggy. Gorgeous Thai style & Chinese style chips. Can't wait to try those delicious pies.

Lovely little cafe I had the ham hock really nice an filling with the Chinese and Thai chips

Without a doubt the best butty ive ever had! I got the philly cheese steak.....already planning my return visit! A real hidden gem!

Food made fresh. Delicious food. Great music. Home made pies to take away are amazing.

Small hidden gem, cosy atmosphere. Staff attentive and quick service. We both had burgers, The Smoker & The Texan Show Stopper.....wow. The flavours of both were great, the portion sizes were spot on. Will be back, would reccomend to others.

Love the place, like almost famous but the food is even better

Food was excellent - great wraps, hoagies and burgers. Also good value - lunch for 5 of us was about £40.

Totally recommend amazing food and great taste in music

Came with a couple of friends I had the lamb shwama and it was amazing and generous portion. high quality fresh food and good value for money. Good music choice and decor is nice like a cool cafe you would find on the backstreets of Manchester 10/10

The food is amazing, we missed breakfast so ordered hoagies - ham hock, pulled pork and beef - my partner even gave compliments to the chef after a few bites! Lovely atmosphere, easy to park and great service. Even started making their own pies 🥧 (which look amazing). Will be a regular here, 100% recommend it!

Love this hidden Gem of a place! Food is amazing, always.

discovered this place while baked, absolutely fire

Loved this place. We popped in while shopping at northern soul and had the Philly steak sandwich and salt and pepper chips. Will be back for the pie.

Fantastic food everytime the meat hoagies to die for

I can't rate the food as we left before we ordered due to very unfriendly and rude male staff. I don't post negative reviews, but if you work in hospitality, there should be some level of courtesy and politeness. I have reviewed previous reviews just to check if the person may have had just a "bad day." But it appears that you don't take it on board and you're not self-aware in any way... Please work on your tone and way you speak to people...cafe is in a lovely location, and it's really nice inside - shame that the attitude ruined the experience from the moment we stepped in.

Nipped in at dinner for a burger. I ended up getting a Philly Cheesesteak with chips and my girlfriend got a cheeseburger and chips. As she's fussy and wanted no relish the chef very kindly gave her an extra burger. You can tell the meat is good quality Yorkshire gear. Even the chips were very above average. I'd definitely recommend. Good fast service, friendly staff and very tasty good quality food. A real hidden gem

Hidden Gem Great home made food Brilliant Retro Decor

Very nice place Great atmosphere and fresh food

Great staff and lovely food 😋😋👍highly recommend

Fantastic American diner, authentic food cooked with a real passion. The Texan burger is probably 1 of the best burgers I've ever eaten. Well worth a visit especially considering the reasonable prices for high quality food

Wow, what an awesome lunch at this fantastic little place overlooking the river. The Philly Cheesesteak is one of the best I’ve had. Can’t believe it’s virtually on our doorstep. We’ll definitely be back to work our way through the menu, especially the American Smokehouse in the evenings.

My favourite place to eat in Mossley! Been here a few times and the food is always amazing! Especially the salt & pepper chicken and chips. Great value for money and the chef is always very friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Hidden little gem. Food is awesome 👍

Fantastic place, staff and food

Lovely decor and atmosphere; very tasty food (reasonably priced); friendly staff. Will definitely come again

What a find! The chap serving us was lovely and accommodating. I got the full breakfast, great value and all cooked very well. Usually I don't go for homemade beans but they were awesome! Highly recommend this little hidden away gem.

Decided to take our son here for a 16th birthday meal as he loves American food. We saw the cafe advertised on Facebook and it looked amazing. We called up to book a table, as all the pictures on Facebook show the cafe packed out. The gentleman who answered checked the diary and said he would be able to get us in. Fab news. When we arrived there was good parking and Mill looked good. When we walked inside the cafe there was nobody in dining. It was empty which surprised us. Anyway we sat down and was greeted by lovely girl who gave us menu's. The young girl came back to our table and took drinks order. Unfortunately there was no Rose wine on the menu and even though they had cocktails advertised above the bar, they wasn't doing them either. So ended up with a coffee instead. My son & partner ordered Milkshakes. The 2 young girls who was serving seemed very inexperienced and the chef / owner had to come out of the kitchen to help them make the milkshakes. We then ordered our meals. We asked the girl could we have the mac & cheese from the starters and have it all together with our main meals as we wanted to share it. She very kindly said she would ask the chef. Off she went to return to our table saying the chef said No. So we decided not to have it. Shame really as that lost them a £7.50 sale. When our meals arrived they looked good and was piping hot. I had The Killer which was ok but had way too much sauce on. As I was biting my burger it was just sloppy with sauce & cheese and falling apart in my hands. Very messy. I also had philby steak fries. Wow these where 10/10. Loved them. My partner had The Texas Show Stopper and upgraded to Pulled pork fries. He said it was nice but again commented on too much sauce. He gave it a 6/10. Our son had The New Yorker and said it was lovely. He gave it a 8/10. He also upgraded his fries to pulled beef and was very impressed with them. The cafe was really nice and the American interior was fab. The staff was very friendly.

Good variety on lunch menu. food … was fabulous!!! Definitely will be returning … already booked for Saturday evening. Highly recommend 👍

Fantastic food. Tasty and good value. Service is friendly and speedy. We will definitely be back.

Lovely little cafe and food was amazing

Food is great fantastic place Definitely recommend to anyone

Such a lovely place to eat 😋 food is amazing x

Excellent food and service as always. Would highly recommend this place 10/10 👌

Awesome food - great place - definitely recommend

Holy Moly! Huge portions of absolutely amazing food! I had a veggie burger and my boyfriend had the New Orleans burger. Everything was so fresh and crisp. Will definitely be coming here again! Thanks guys! X

Lovely little gem of a place. Found this by accident and it was amazing!

Highly recommend - the food was superb 👌 Nice welcome and great atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

Nice cosy place food looked amazing ( didn't have any myself) . Milk shakes were nice and tasty.

We was in the area so decided to pop in for food. A quirky little spot for a cafe. We admired the decor inside. We caught a last minute rush and the owner / chef was alone. Our food was OK.... My partner wanted to try the steak sandwich however there was little choice left. (We think we timed our visit poorly as the café shuts about 2 for a break and reopens later.) I think my advice is to get there upon opening.

Popped in for a quick bite to eat, the guy serving was extremely busy but coping well. He seemed to be on his own, so he was doing a fantastic job. The food was amazing, I would definitely recommend.

Popped in halfway through a walk along the canal, the coffee was the best we've had , had a falafel and houmous wrap , made fresh and very tasty, hubby had vegetarian toasty ,very tasty, definitely will be returning. Toilet did freak me out a bit, but that's just me.

Food and ambience a perfect blend. The staff are beyond excellent warm and welcoming and it was all super effecient. Great to watch a good team pulling together.

Exceptional food the ribs are to die for so so friendly my new favourite place to eat

Just been for lunch and this is how it went. Asked if we wanted drinks, have to pay in advance, 10% service charge. Then Ordered starters n mains. Pay in advance 10% service charge. Its on the menu but in incredibly small print at the bottom. I think this is very bad practice and this will prevent me making a return vist on an ethics stance. The food was just average, I've been to better American diners.

Love this little hidden gem. My favourite has got to be the Beef Hoagie and, i cant resist the sweet chilli salt & pepper chips to go with. 😋 you won't be disappointed !

What a gorgeous cafe, I have been a few times and had the breakfast wrap but the salt and pepper chicken and chips has been on my mind every time I walk passed. Today I dropped in whilst walking the dogs and they did not disappoint!! Highly recommend and the staff are so lovely and friendly

Great spot lovely staff lovely food Reasonable prices

Absolutely delicious and great service from the friendly owner! We will be back 👍🏻

Just had a delightful breakfast at this charming little cafe! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was great and it offered good value for money. Highly recommended for a cozy, satisfying start to the day.

Love this cosy nook. The lamb shawarma gyros are spectacular. Very highly recommended.

Great little hidden gem of a place. Stopped in for lunch after spotting a review on here. Nice atmosphere and friendly, welcoming staff I had the Lamb Shwarma Gyros and it was excellent. The evening menu looks amazing too - I just wish I lived closer!

I had the full English breakfast it was lovely well cooked and the beans are lovely 😍. The WiFi is really good ie Quearcode. They have a bar 🍸 they sale beers 🍻 and wines 🍷 and cocktails and none alcohol cocktails 🍸. It the summer there is table and chairs to sit outside in the sunshine 🌞

I had a pulled pork wrap with salt & pepper chips and my wife had chicken wrap, food was lovely , and we had a chat to Phill great chap, will go again — Pete & Rose

Newly discovered local business on the back of mill facing river. Lovely place with very friendly owner who is passionate to deliver good food and good atmosphere. Go and give local business support:) I would recommend to get food here, had ribs with fries and beer - all very good quality.

Have amazing burgers here on Friday evening, my son commented his was best burger he has ever had, all just a little different, really delicious, service was good. All staff were lovely. And such reasonable price, we will definitely be back for more. Lovely wine too.

Great food, great staff, great location. Definitely worth a visit

We have been here a few times now. The food is always freshly prepared and delicious. Friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere.

Great little place, nicely done interior. Great food and friendly staff 👌

Been today for the first time and will definitely be returning, the best burger I’ve ever had, my daughter had a burrito and that was also amazing, friendly staff and love the interior 10/10

We've been a couple of times now and the food is always great and the owner always makes time for a chat even though he's really busy be back soon

If I could give more stars I would. Went tonight for the first time with my partner for our 20yr anniversary the empire state burger was so juicy and cooked to perfection fries and milkshake was amazing and the buttermilk chicken wings was spot on. I’m a very fussy eater and usually only eat bland foods but the flavours were stunning. Big compliments to the chef

Came here tonight for a rare night out with the wife and absolutely loved it the food was amazing best burgers I've had in as long as I can remember so juicy it was unreal the fries was really good aswell The restaurant while small wasn't cramped and it had a nice atmosphere with friendly staff the waitresses was very polite the chef and I'm assuming owner even came out to upgrade out table because it was quiet which was nice of him I would definitely be more than happy to return again

Really pleased with our dinner tonight. Not been here before and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the burger. As good as city centre Manchester ‘Almost Famous’. Lovely atmosphere, friendly service and great tasting value for money food. We’ll definitely go back.

Amazing food and staff. The owner is a fabulous chef that puts so much passion and care into what he does. A hidden gem of a place that's well worth a visit ... Or more! It changes from a daytime café into an American style BBQ smokehouse in the evening, which serves alcohol. The food is divine, the fries are cooked to perfection and aren't greasy and perfectly crispy and seasoned. Highly recommended the smoked pulled pork burger and loaded fries.

Very nice place inside, food was just average, pre packed frozen then microwaved, fried to order. Portions were ok. Staff came across quite arrogant, appreciate he was alone but that's never an excuse. Wouldn't return personally but if you're in the area it's reasonable for a quick bite after a country walk.

Really good… service was excellent and the food was amazing. TNT Chicken 8/10 Fries 9/10 Empire State Burger 8/10

Excellent smokehouse, good food and good value for money

This is not a "SPAM" review, this is me finding the guy really rude & leaving a review based on my experience with the cafe. If you want my advice, work on hospitality!

Fantastic food, service and location! Will be returning.

Food is great, great service too, well worth a visit

Just had a amazing breakfast at the cafe@woodend would highly recommend this place.

Food is sensational. Explosion of flavour. Definitely need to go back and try a burger next time. Nice ladies serving, clean kitchen. Only gripe was it's a card only place, no cash and some prices on the menu were different to what I was paid, maybe a service charge but no indication of this, solid 4 out of 5 will be going again

I don’t usually eat out, it’s probably been my biggest fear for years dealing with emetophobia, but my dads good mate Phil made me feel so at ease, and his food is absolutely bloody brilliant!! And the service was lovely, full of charming, well mannered people!! I’ll be coming again 😁

Microwave pie served in a cereal bowl ,unfriendly service

Very unusual surroundings inside a mill. Food very nice. I had chicken and chips in a spicy chilli and spring onion sweet sauce which had a 'kick' to it. Really tasty. Also sell wraps and the traditional pies. Highly recommended.

First time going to here, will be back for more delicious food. Looking at the menu you wonder where to start because it all looks so appetising. Friendly atmosphere makes for a good meal out. Would recommend.
