We came here today for brunch for the first time after spending weeks building excitement looking at their instagram page. We went in expecting a traditional brunch/ coffee house experience but we left slightly disappointed. From the get go both my husband and I found it odd that you had to not only take your own menu but find your own seat. We weren’t greeted or acknowledged at the door short of a nod from one of the staff members. We found an empty table that was still unclean from the previous customers. This wouldn’t have been an issue if it was addressed quickly but we had to wait 15 minutes before someone came to clean. We ordered our food at the bar which was then followed by a half an hour wait for it to arrive. Frankly, we were not sure why the order took so long. No one checked in on us at the time and we were one of the only two tables ordering food, everyone else seemed to be there for coffee. When the food did arrive we could immediately tell it had been sitting out for a while. It was cold, the fries were wilted and the bread was soggy. We were disappointed as we could tell that it would have been delicious if it had been served at the right temperature. Overall, while the atmosphere and the food quality were both very good, the service massively let everything down. I’ve never been in a restaurant where I had to take charge of pretty much my whole experience. For the price I do believe there are much better brunch places in Manchester and I may be willing to give it another chance but not any time soon. If I was you I’d give this one a skip.

I was looking for somewhere to have a coffee and sit and read for a while. The trouble is that most coffee places in Manchester (and other British cities) are not open in the evening, so I googled for suggestions, and someone on Reddit recommended this place, which I have passed many times (although could never work out what the sign said!) but had never been in. Turned out to be a good recommendation, and I spent a very pleasant couple of hours here (joined partway through by a friend). Good coffee, great cocktails - we were not there to eat so I can't judge the food properly, but I did have a flapjack which was very filling. The reason for only 4 stars for food is that I would've liked a slightly wider selection of cakes, but maybe they have more at different times. Anyway, it's a lovely place, and I will definitely be returning. (Oh, and I liked the background music! Laid-back and varied, but including lots of songs I knew all the words to!)

Came for a quick bite to eat. Service was quick despite it being relatively busy. Nice atmosphere and upstairs seating. Chap who served us was very patient with my questions about the French toast, due to dietary requirements I needed to ensure it was halal. He suggested the jelly part of the trifle French Toast is removed. The French toast is a special on the menu and changes. You order at the till and pay before seating.

I really enjoyed the food . I wanted to try the French toast but i wasn’t interested in the flavour. I really like the inside really nicely decorated. The service was great friendly staff and plenty of space to sit down . I really wish they had more flavours of the French toast so I can try it another time.

Overall I would say this is a nice looking place, lovely food but staff attitude and atmosphere has been poor every time I’ve been here, dirty looks, passive aggressive behaviour as if they hate their customers. I understand customer service is difficult especially in city environments, it’s long, annoying and customers can and do mistreat you, but I feel it comes across that a lot of staff hold resentment to all of these customers and in doing so provide an unwelcoming experience to them, this is also a shared experience with my friends and family upon coming here on separate occasions. I would advise the manager or anyone of authority over the staff, to have a word or self reflect on the work ethic and mannerisms of their staff. I received poor service, chatting whilst I was waiting to order, passive aggressive comments etc. I assume a duty manager / shift manager was also present who also shared this behaviour. Really disappointed as this was a day to take my mum and dad out to lunch as a family member passed, and their behaviour made us feel so unwelcome that we decided to leave.

Very unpleasant experience From the moment we walked in, our waitress seemed to have a level of distain for us that should be reserved for the current political leadership. I'm not sure why, maybe because we had a young baby with us (who was sleeping), or maybe because it was Saturday morning and she would rather not be there. Worth noting that they weren't particularly busy (which in hindsight should have been a giveaway). We ordered our food at the bar, and half our tables order came quickly. It wasn't until almost an hour later that the rest of the food turned up... No explanation as to why, we just kept being told it was on its way. When it did arrived, we asked for some complimentary coffees, which they then tried to charge us for! We had to get the manager and explain what had happened. No real apology, but they begrudgingly agreed to comp the coffees. The food was reasonable when it did arrive, but we'd never go back, as the experience was horrendous.

Coffee incorrect, stated no vanilla and came with it in. Also ordered 2 poached eggs on toast which came promptly. I understand some chefs add vinegar to the water when poaching eggs but the whites tasted so vinegary they were inedible. £9 (ish) resulted in me eating a piece of sourdough toast and leaving. Disappointed as I typically like the independent coffee shops.

Went here for the first time. Food was good (only came for coffee and French toast) but service, not so much. As we entered, none of the staff approached us to welcome us or tell us where we should sit. They just stared at our faces. So we found our own seating. Nobody came up to us to give us menus, again, they were just staring at our faces or the staff were talking amongst themselves. So we had to go to the front and get our own menus. Had no idea how it worked so had to pull a staff member and ask how we order. Went to the till to order and the guy serving just looked like he didn’t want to be there. Waited a while to receive our food which surprisingly they brought to the table and didn’t have to go to the till and ask. Once the food was handed to us the staff just kept to themselves. It’s like they only talk to you if you approach them or if they have to. Really bizarre service and not very welcoming like any other cafe you go to.

We’ve been for lunch, we’ve been for afternoon drinks and we’ve been in the evening for drinks and nibbles. Every time this place shines. The doorman is probably the friendliest in the city and the bar team are lovely too. It has a great drinks selection and the nibbles are pretty good too. One of my favourite features of this place is the view of the library and the Midlland - come at night when they are both lit up!

I recently visited Haunt coffee shop and was left thoroughly disappointed. Despite the cafe being relatively quiet, I had to wait an inordinate 30 minutes for my caramel cappuccino. To make matters worse, when I finally received my order, it was plain and lacked the caramel I had specifically requested. Definitely not the service or quality I expected from such a place.

I recently visited ‘Haunt’ for a coffee and brunch, and it left me with mixed impressions. The food was good; I opted for a sandwich, and the ingredients inside were flavorful and enjoyable. However, I couldn’t help but wish that the bread had been toasted instead of being warmed in a microwave. It’s those small details that can make a big difference in the overall experience. As for the coffee, while I’m not a coffee expert, I did notice a slightly burnt taste that didn’t quite align with my preferences. However, the latte art was well-executed, adding a nice touch to the presentation. Despite my personal taste preferences, I still found it to be an alright cup of coffee. In summary, ‘Haunt’ has its strengths, particularly in the quality of ingredients in their food and the skillful latte art. However, there are some areas, like the where it might benefit from a bit of refinement. It’s worth a visit if you’re in the area and looking for a cozy spot, but it may not be everyone’s top choice.

Been frequenting for a couple months now & it’s become one of my favourite spots in the city. Everyone who works here is kind and personable without being in your face- this contributes to the overall relaxing laid-back vibe during the day that makes it perfect for a coffee. As a chef, I’m personally a bit of a snob when it comes to cafe food but the sandwiches are well thought out while avoiding being obnoxious. I haven’t tried any of the pastries yet because they haven’t necessarily jumped at me but maybe this will change. At night, it’s absolutely buzzing with great cocktails to match. It tends to get busy during the weekends so I’d recommend planning properly but worth the effort if you manage to grab a table. (Also, the bathrooms are thankfully always in great shape which we all know is rare for the city centre) Absolutely an underrated gem, 5/5 recommend.

I asked if they had a vegetarian version of the full breakfast the staff member proceeded to say it’s an Italian in a sarcastic manner. There are vegetarians in Italy that don’t just want avocado or egg!!! unfortunately the latte and cappuccino were not up to much, both were exactly the same. Perhaps you could put less effort in to being rude and more effort into making the correct coffees!! I then asked for a brownie which never came and finally when it came to paying the bill the staff member advised they don’t take cash. No where on the premises does it state card only.
