Hug in a Mug in Salford

I’ve been coming to Hug in a Mug quite a while now, and I can honestly say it’s something I look forward to as part of my daily routine, when i am at work. It’s got such a great atmosphere and despite losing Ed, Karen has carried on with the support of Grace, Rob and Matt, and all her customers old and new, who are now friends, because it isn’t just a cafe, it’s a safe welcoming haven and community space for everyone to feel as if they belong. The additional benefit now is the new chef Nuno, who is an exceptional talent in the kitchen. His food is amazing !!! Let’s keep being patrons of this great cafe as it is much needed and benefits a lot of people young and old. Thank you Karen for carrying on in difficult times, everyone appreciates your bravery and hard work. Looking forward to the new menu next year and all the great nights throughout the year.

very cosy cafe, gem of the village, great home made foods and cakes, run by a most amazing lady. There is always a warm welcome and they treat every cilent like familu.

i come here a lot it’s a nice community feel , you can relax and have a coffee, homemade cakes were so tasty.

Food was absolutely delicious, lovely staff. Felt so comfortable and was able to just sit and talk to my mum over brunch that was absolutely lovely. Definitely will be our new place to go. Really decent priced food and little bits you can buy for at home that is miles cheaper than shops. More people should definitely visit to support your local/small business.

If you're vegan if you can give them a bit of advance warning so they can be prepared . The man was so friendly. I was able to eat ..beans and toast vanished.😋 Daughter loved her omlette. Relaxing atmosphere and clearly loved by regulars. Right beside a major bus stop and away from corporate robotic shops. A few grocery items on sale as well as some giftware. Purse / wallet friendly . Definitely our new place to eat. Thank you. They also run cuddle in a cup if you're in the centre and want a non chain brew ❤️

Cannot fault Hug in a Mug. Eddie & Karen are very welcoming & the food is always excellent. If you want a cafe with a home from home feel rather than the corporate feel of Tesco or Costa then this is the place to come.

Went to Hug In A Mug today for the very first time and the staff were wonderfull very friendly . Had Christmas Dinner and Christmas pudding and custard and it was very well. cooked and was made to feel dry welcome. The staff were brilliant not been before but i will be going bcack

Visited her on a couple of occasions now and each time have been so very impressed with the home made food, price and the friendliness of the owners. Its incredibly cheap and a real nurturing little place so if you was wanting company or not you would still feel extremely comfortable. The toilets and cafe are on ground level and the bus stops right outside. If driving you would likely need to park on tesco car park which is just across the road.

Popped into here with my son , who works around the corner .We thought we'd give it a try , instead of the usual Costa . What a lovely cafe . Warm , clean , so comfortable , such friendly staff and good variety of food .It was quite busy but service was excellent . Will definately come here again . Keep up the good work .

A friendly homely experience with home made foods and a well designed speciality menu. Cannot find what you want, tell them what you fancy and they probably have a solution. Coffee from the bean, strong and rich, cakes home made and never the same. Prices you find is very reasonable and for such a small coffee shop, comes a big heart. The community of walkden is within this cafe as charitable events helping local people are often welcome. If you want local honey or crafts, you can get them here too .The only thing i believes it lacks i a refreshing smoothie.

This hidden treasure is an AMAZING place. Karen and Eddie are the most accommodating couple, they cater for all dietary needs. They will try different types of food items that turn out to be lush, a crisp and sauce wrap being just one example, which lots of customers loved, I love their quirkiness with foods which turns out to be very nice and tasty. They and their customers thrive on the difference in foods and look forward to tasting the new dishes. The names Hug in a Mug and there’s definitely lots of them, if you need a hug they will give you one, they (the hugs) are legendary. Their food is such good value for money and all cooked to order, including all of their cakes. They run a craft night on a Tuesday night that is extremely popular. The café is warm very clean and friendly. They let groups use their space and they hold charity fund raising nights too. They are definitely the seat of the community in Walkden, that’s exactly what Karen and Eddie aimed for and wish to do more. Every community needs a Karen and Eddie.
