Kin Bakehouse & Kitchen in Trafford

My daughter took us here for a Sunday morning breakfast but said we must be there for 10am! She was right, a very popular place and once you get your coffee and food you know why - excellent all round! Great service, excellent coffee (we tried the flat white, cappuccino and an almond milk coffee) and a wide range if breakfast treats and cakes. We had the avocado on toast with a poached egg, a trendy bacon bap, various yogurts and breads far too complicated to detail but clearly very well liked! The cakes to eat in or take out also looked amazing but we resisted. A great place for breakfast - thanks to all the staff for making it one to remember and come back to!

I was able to get a beautiful Gluten Free birthday cake from Kin Bakehouse. It was absolutely delicious and the quality was unmatched. You would never have know it was GF. (Anyone GF will know how difficult it is to find a cake, I searched all over and couldn’t find anywhere else in Manchester who provided the same quality as Kin bakehouse) Any of the staff members I spoke with were super lovely, professional & flexible to provide the best service. Communication over email, phone and in person were 10/10 just like the cake. I really could not recommend them more! Great quality & top class service! Thank you again for everything :).

A beautiful cafe in Urmston. Incredibly friendly and the best coffee and cake in Manchester. This is based on the Gluten Free options available which are some of the best I've ever had. My favourite, and the one to have, is the cake with a GF coconut macaroon case. I've had a couple of variations on this one with mango and last weekend with home-grown rhubarb. I think it's the best cake I've had, and they have more options available. Superb quality and lovely service, always chatty and lovely. Food is available and it looks really good, I'm just always looking at the cakes.

This is my 2nd visit here the last time Had the dog with me . Pleasant place coffee not strong enough for me and cake was rather good . Yes I would come here again , nice lay out & a few decent size tables outside , but the road is busy

Gorgeous cakes, fabulous coffee and friendly staff. What great little find. Definitely worth a visit. Reasonable prices too.

Visited mid week lunch & Kin was super busy. We ordered coffees & waited on high stools for a table. The staff were very friendly & helpful. We got a table after 5 mins & ordered at the front counter. The menu is excellent, well thought out, creative & very tempting. The food arrived without much delay, shakshouka & Turkish eggs both with extras & the food was outstanding. We took some cake away for later which was delicious. I believe it’s always busy here so it’s worth timing your visit to get a table. Definitely will be back. My first & not my last trip to Urmston 😀🤣

just popped in on my way past. venue was lovely, service was exceptional and friendly and the food was delicious. not much else to say!

We popped in to get some gluten free cakes having seen a mention on 'gluten free Manchester' We weren't disappointed. I chose 3 different cakes. All reasonably priced and all delicious. Very reasonable at roughly £3 each. I'd make a future trip from Leeds especially for them!

I’ve been to kin a few times and every time I go, I think I need to leave a review. Food is amazing and good value, friendly even when really busy which it often is and a few good vegan options for my partner so she loves it too. The cakes are absolutely brilliant and unique. Real gem that Urmston is lucky to have, we live in Salford now but travel over just for kin sometimes.

Absolutely amazing food and cakes! My cousin who lives near by told me about her go to cafe and boy it didn’t disappoint! The portion size were huge. I couldn’t finish the coffee and biscoffe cake. The Manchester tart french toast, I honestly never had the likes of it before and I love trying french toast in different areas. The prices were extremely reasonable!

Gf treats Menu with gf available upon request, the lemon meringue cake is lovely will be coming back again to get some more

Took my daughter for breakfast after a doctors appointment and she was impressed with the range of meals and the indulgent cakes which I am told are made on the premises. The food is just different enough from others to be interesting

This place is unbelievable! The breakfasts, grilled cheese, salads, soups, cakes, coffee, every single thing is exceptional. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is good, great value for money, fresh ingredients and regularly updated specials menu. Urmston’s top food place!

Last minute breakfast date with a friend. Luckily we managed to get a table as it was pretty busy even at 10am on a Sunday! The place has a great vibe, relaxed and intimate. My friend had the sourdough toast which looked good and I had the cinnamon sourdough French toast. It was presented beautifully and I was a little worried that with it being sourdough it wouldn’t be as good as other French toasts I’ve had…but it was lovely and soft! Thick cut, complimented perfectly with the mascarpone, salted caramel and toasted maple seeds. Great place for home made breakfast.

Best breakfast/elevenses/brunch/afternoon tea or any other time place. Kin continues to be the best foodie experience in Urmston - great tasting coffee, imaginative and very tasty salads and soup specials, tremendous sweet treats on offer. My only complaint is I’m often spoilt for choice! Staff always helpful and pleasant, great soundtrack and spotlessly clean. Sheer joy! Thanks Jen and Kerry for continuing to deliver a fabulous experience time after time.

The breakfast at Kin is fantastic and it's our number one choice at the weekend. The service is great and the quality of the food is first class. On our latest visit we had banana bread - the works and sourdough toast with butter and strawberry jam. Delicious! And when it was time to leave, we had to take home some cakes for later.

Looking around for somewhere for a healthy breakfast on Sunday morning isn't easy so we were delighted to find this place. Good food and coffee - what more do you want?

I love Kin! Their coffee is up there with the best in Manchester, it's really smooth, caramelly and not bitter at all. Their food is delicious, especially the Turkish eggs. I've been going to Kin fairly regularly for over a year now and it would be good to see some changes to the menu with some new additions. You can swap bread for gluten free bread which is toasted separately so safe for coeliac. The cakes are so delicious and always a really good choice, usually half is gluten free which is amazing! Staff and friendly but not always the most helpful. If you want to go at the weekend, get there early as there aren't many tables and it gets very busy.

Positively the very best sandwich I have ever had!! Please visit this gem! Service friendly, funky vibe. Also pet friendly.

Visited Kin today for the first time after being recommended by a friend. Very spacious inside for a small cafe, Turkish eggs and sourdough toast was lovely. Great selection of tea and coffee and of course, the freshly baked treats. Also has some good GF options. Would highly recommend a visit with family or friends. Also has outdoor seating options if the weather is pleasant. Lovely staff, will definitely be back.

We are regulars to Kin - we love the food and of course the cakes! The speciality coffee is really nice, I recently tried the Chai latte that was recommended to me by the lovely Ellie who always delivers service with a smile. Dogs are welcome and the atmosphere is always friendly. Well worth a visit.

I’ve been to Kin numerous times since moving to Urmston in Summer 2020. I’m not one to bad mouth small businesses usually, as I’m a huge supporter of shopping and entertaining locally. BUT, I’ve had bad experiences every single time I’ve been to Kin. It’s either been rude staff, or extreme covid measures. I have given them the benefit of the doubt many times, as I knew covid has placed a lot of stress on the hospitality industry. However, today really took the biscuit. Bearing in mind the current position of the UK where COVID is concerned…I went today with my sister and friend and hung around waiting for a table. Not one member of staff greeted us and we stood by the door for 5 mins. The cafe was crammed with people either side of the room, almost shoulder to shoulder - groups of friends clearly mixing/socialising which has become the norm again - great! There was one table with 5/6 chairs where 2 ladies had just sat down. They were sat on 2 tables pushed together… we went over and asked if we could pull the tables apart and sit on the side that wasn’t in use. One of the ladies said “Sure!, we just tried to separate the tables to make room for someone else but we got told off”. We sat and pulled the tables apart, then a masked male member of staff came over and said “you can’t separate the tables?”. I asked why this was and he responded “COVID” bluntly. I told him I didn’t see the problem and he muttered some nonsense under his mask. I reminded him that it’s not mandatory to wear masks, sit separately from different households or keep distance from people any longer and again he just stood there until we got the message. We decided to leave and even the ladies sat next to us looked absolutely dumbfounded as to why this rule would be in place. Once again would like to reiterate that the cafe was crammed, the windows were steamed up it was so busy and I’d say 1/2 of the staff weren’t wearing masks which to me personally is fine also.When I visited this place sort of mid/peak covid last year in summer, when cafes were only open for takeaway, I went inside to buy takeaway coffee and cake. As mentioned in another review, I stepped slightly over the line of tape used to keep customers back from the counter. I was wearing a mask and stepped over it slightly both to look at the cakes on display and to tap my card on the contactless machine - both times I received a comment about stepping back. Both the owners and staff here are being beyond ridiculous and I can categorically say I will never visit Kin again, despite their bakes and coffee being good. If you’re so concerned with being petty then you may as well close your doors, because there are plenty of places in Urmston / Stretford / Chorlton that people would travel to, to avoid this rude and quite frankly snowflake attitude I’m aware of friends and family who have experienced the same also - shocking

So happy to have stumbled across this little cafe tucked away. The best brunch I’ve had. It’s so nice to be able to go somewhere for brunch where the only option isn’t fry up or poached eggs. Gorgeous sourdough bread. Didn’t have the cakes but they looked extremely good and were all baked in house. Will be back.

First visit this weekend and I’ll be back. Simple but tasty menu. Lots of cakes and the best Turkish eggs I’ve had in ages. They could’ve done with more gluten free and lactose free options, if they sold them it wasn’t clear from the menu and it can be annoying constantly having to ask. Lovely place though and worth a visit.

The coffee is amazing. I drink decaf with Oat milk and it is almost impossible to get a decent cup of coffee. I'd almost given up hope till I discovered Kin. My husband drinks Caffeinated coffee and milk and is equally impressed. The cakes look amazing and there is a steady stream of people coming in for take-outs. Would love to try the food but will now have to wait for a while (lockdown)The only negative is it is quite small on the inside. Lovely staff.

This was overall a truly lovely experience on a wet October afternoon. Would thoroughly recommend a visit.

To begin with, there is a lot to like about this cafe before you even look at the menu. It is located in an attractive, large corner store space which has been modernised and opened up and boasts lots of natural light flooding through big windows, as well as a number of outdoor tables out front. All of which means that it also works well during COVID restrictions. Clearly the baking is a specialty - there is lots to look at on the counter if you are someone who likes to make your food decisions with your eyes! They were happy for us to peruse, unlike a few places we have been to where we have been “scolded” for stepping up to look at the cakes, even though we have our masks on and there are no other customers about. So thank you, Kin Bakehouse, for this. The coffee also gets a tick from me. I asked for a double shot in what they called a short black cup (smaller cup). Good strength and nice beans, just not very hot, although when I ordered a second coffee, they did make an effort to warm the cup. We were very pleased to discover that they had granola on the menu - always a bonus given the numbers of place which only offer less healthy, cooked options at breakfast time. We followed this up with the sourdough toast (toasted just right) which we chose to enjoy with rhubarb jam. As other reviewers have noted, it’s a good sourdough. On a wet weekday, we were able to get a car park right outside, there is a clean customer toilet in an interesting wee triangle-shaped room, and the service was just fine. We will look forward to returning.

Went yesterday for coffee and cake with a friend. cannot fault the cake or coffee at all really good. but the dark haired girl behind the counter was beyond rude. i accidentally stepped over the yellow marker for covid i was too busy selecting a cake to be looking down and was barked at to get back behind the line. she then barked at another customer to get back waiting outside. we are all aware of covid and face masks being worn but this girl just came across rude. I have to say the other member of staff young blonde girl was cheery and very pleasant. this girl needs to learn some basic customer service skills just made what should have been a lovely little half hour a tainted experience.

You won’t be disappointed. Sandwiches Tea and cake fit for the queen !! the best fresh sourdough bread I’ve come across

Alot of places serve coffee but not alot of places actually have coffee that tastes amazing! Kin does really great coffee! Popped in yesterday with a friend for cappuccino and cake and the banana bread with salted caramel butter did not disappoint! Decor, surroundings and staff all top notch too. Kin deserves to be successful as the owners have clearly put alot of thought into their brand and produce and it shows.

Got back from longest marathon training run this afternoon and needed to refuel with a late lunch. No better place than Kin! Brown sourdough, poached eggs and avo was so tasty, it’s a regular favourite. Perfect recovery food after a 23 miler! Couldn’t resist a little treat after that. Well I say little but today’s layer cake was anything but. Banana, peanut butter and salted caramel. What a combination. Would like to say I savoured it but in all honesty, I wolfed it down so fast, it barely had time to touch the plate. Do Kin make the best coffee in Urmston? No, they don’t. They make the best coffee much further afield than that! I work in town and go to coffee shops in the Northern Quarter, Spinningfields etc. In my opinion, Kin easily beat them on quality and value. We’re lucky to have them in Urmston but please get a branch open in Manchester!! Jen, Kerry...keep doing what you’re doing.

Have been to Kin many times and always find the experience brilliant. Food is delicious, they use great fresh ingredients and dishes are always presented beautifully. I’ve tried many of the specials which change periodically and they always hit the spot, being really tasty. The cakes are something else with flavour combinations which compliment each other and are all presented amazingly . Have also had many special occasion cakes made by Kin which are always a hit with family and friends. My favourite in the shop is the layer cake of the day (any flavour) and the Black Forest gateaux cake my husband got from Kin for my birthday was the best I’ve ever tasted. Great value for money for such delicious fresh food and cakes. The Kin team are really welcoming and friendly I’ll be back in tomorrow!!!

I've been here a couple of times for breakfast. I actually don't mind the main menu. You don't get much, but ingredients seem to be high quality and tasty, but when it comes to the cakes they are taking their cumsters for a ride. I don't mind paying a profit margin when good ingredients are used and profit margin is proportional vs cost of ingerdients, but their cakes are so expensive vs the cost of the ingredient. £2.20 for a small pastel de nata, £3.30 for a slice of banana bread, these cost 10p to make a single pastel de nata and 20p tops to make a slice of banana loaf, They don't require much labour and the ingredients are cheap. profit margin on cakes takes the michael. People might be paying it, but it's taking advantage of their customers

Lovely, relaxing atmosphere and great coffee and cakes. Spent half a day there and would happily spend the whole day there!

Fabulous food, atmosphere and service. My favourite is avo on toast with a poached egg. Very tasty and nourishing. Scrumptious cakes on offer. Can highly recommend

I've been here so much over the past few weeks and had a lot of things on the menu, the staff are always so friendly and the cakes are amazing! Best cafe in Urmston by far!

Excellent Sunday family breakfast. Ideal for families with early bird tots as it opens early on Sundays. Very welcoming of young families and fabulous nutritious food for all. Highly recommended :)

Another lovely relaxed lunch with a friend at Kin. Love it here. We both had the shakshuka - delicious! Great coffee too

Lovely cafe, friendly staff and amazing homemade cakes! Only knocked down a point as do think some of the toast options are expensive for what they are - the beans were delicious and homemade but almost £7 for one slice of bread and beans is a lot. That being said I would definitely come back!

Hate to say my first visit here yesterday, i dont know how long it has been open ,i have definately been missing out. A new friend and i went for late lunch, we had Chicken and pancetta with rocket one on white and one on brown and shared.Trully scrumptious, very tasty with plenty of Chicken and very filling.We had a normal tea,special tea and a can of Elderflower which was very refreshing.It is only a small cafe down a side road, if you are driving you might have trouble parking,we found a spot a couple of streets away.It was very reasonable and the cakes looked amazing, the cafe was full with a friendly atmosphere. I will be back

Knew they served great coffee and delicious cake but 1st time for brunch and we were not disappointed. Lovely sausage butties, vegetarian muhammara dish and sobraska were fabulous.

Excellent place! Food: awesome (had breakie here: avo on toast with bacon and poached egg, first class) Staff: super friendly Place: nice clean and smart decor!

Great little spot. Awesome coffee and food is divine. Friendly helpful staff. The avocado and poached egg was superb.

Best coffee in Urmston. Well worth visiting to relax and enjoy a coffee full of flavour! Treat yourself to a cake too, their choices are stunning. A good, easy going menu, nothing too fancy but all with a unique twist for an independent coffee house.

I have been here on numerous occasions for coffee and cake, and for lunch. I will never tire of this little gem on our doorstep. Absolutely love it. Kin has a lovely pleasant and friendly atmosphere. The staff are lovely, helpful and nothing is too much trouble.

Kin offers a great selection of cake, the scones are fresh and light, with delicious home made jam. I highly recommend

I’ve been to Kin quite a few times, with friends and also my partner. It’s a lovely little upmarket cafe with excellent coffee and lots of homemade cakes, including little Portuguese tarts (resist these if you can!).

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve visited Kin now. Each time has been a pleasure.

Discovered by my husband whilst waiting for a tyre repair, I went last week with my daughter and was nicely surprised by the didsburyesque authentic place serving different plates in a lovely environment.

Had a brilliant family breakfast here today. Would highly recommend. Staff are lovely. Food is high quality. Child friendly environment. And opens at 9am on a Sunday. Fabulous :)

My husband and I had read a recent review and decided to try Kin for ourselves. So we went for brunch yesterday and we weren’t disappointed. Lovely bright space, friendly staff, awesome menu. My new favourite place to eat in Urmston.

What a find. Superb quality bakery serving amazing cakes, sandwiches and teas and coffees. Lovely friendly staff.

We popped in after school and it's a child friendly cafe as there were lots of families in there. The menu is small but has a good selection. We opted for some hot drinks, scones, brownies and cookies. All of these were baked to perfection. The atmosphere is cosy and relaxed. The staff are friendly and give good and efficient service. We will definitely be popping in again to try some of the other things on the menu, especially for breakfast.

Amazing little place a hidden gem in Urmston!

I went here for coffee & cake after hearing good reviews from friends. It was lovely & I will definitely go again. The only change I would like to see is for the lovely cakes to be covered up under some nice glass cake covers, as when ordering & paying the bill, you stand next to them & if someone sneezed for example, they would be very near the cakes. Apart from that I would highly recommend .

This is a well designed place serving good quality food and the staff are friendly. Two minor points......could the heating be more effective and the soup though delicious is rather expensive.

I’ve been here three times now as I have family on Gloucester Rd and each time has been lovely. The food is homemade and you can tell (in a good way) - delicious, and portions are not mean.

I’ve been to Kin today with my toddler who likes to explore! The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was delicious too!

Love this place!! Really good quality food and always well presented. Small menu, delivered well. Parking round the corner allows 2 hours free.

I've been meaning to check this place out for a little while. So today we went with the intention of getting a couple of take away coffees (we were with our dog). Noticed on the sign outside that it was dog friendly, we and the dog were welcomed in. We opted for 2 coffees which were lovely, really good quality. The place is really popular, with lots of people coming in. Service was good and friendly, very smily faces behind the counter. The cake selection was just WOW, they looked SO GOOD - we didn't get a cake this time - but we will definitely be back to have a coffee and a cake :-)

Been for lunch a couple of times now and the sourdough toast with poached eggs is wonderful! Have visited with kids and grandparents and on both occasions everyone loved what they had! Cheese on toast is great and the Nutella on Banana Bread is a regular winner! Fab sausages and the home made beans are also good! Cakes are delicious - the little custard tarts are wonderful! Well priced and lovely, quick service! There is also a great choice of drinks! What's not to love about this place!

The Mushrooms on Sourdough is INCREDIBLE and the cakes are divine! Since we first went we have returned 3-4 times and it’s always just as good!

I have visited this cafe three times and each time the service was fab, the staff were super friendly and so accommodating.

I’ve been into Kin a good few times now since it opened in the summer.

My Mum and I went for lunch midweek. I haven't been here since it was Get Chucked and had been wanting to try it for a while. It isn't the cheapest lunch in the world but you are paying for the quality of the food. I had avocado and feta on toast and it was so full of flavour. The coffee was also excellent and they even had oat milk.

Lovely family lunch in kin. Fantastic addition to the area. Definitely the best coffee in urmston. Very nice decor and atmosphere. Didn’t have cake but they looked fantastic. Tuna sandwiches were great

I live round the corner and found this place 3 weeks ago. I've been 4 times since for breakfast and ended taking cake home everytime.

Modern décor, good food, amazing cake. I had avocado with feta on toast. Husband had smoked salmon with strips of cucumber and caper dressing. Both very nice. Carrot cake was something else! Prices aren't cheap, but for the standard represents reasonable value for money.

Cakes not covered ,too close to the edge of the counter. I saw a child catch its hair on the cakes. Poor layout.

The staff were lovely, And the food was great! The banana bread is amazing! A small menu but definitely had something on it for everyone- will definitely be doing back.

We've called in to Kin Bakehouse 2 or 3 times this month and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

I love this place! So friendly and excellent food especially the freshly made cakes. There are crumpets, bacon sandwiches, sausage sandwiches, choices of bread. Lovely teas and perfect coffees. You’ve got to pay a visit!

We dropped in for coffee and brunch and it didn't disappoint. The yoghurt and granola was excellent and we bought a sourdough loaf to takeaway which was as good as I have had.

Stopped by for a quick break. Gorgeous environment inside. Very friendly staff. Fab coffee made with care.

This little gem of a coffee shop and bakehouse significantly raises the standard in Urmston. Coffee was superb and hand crafted by a barista who seemed to love his work. The owners are passionate about what they do. Spotlessly clean too! Highly recommended.
