Tipico posto per una breakfast inglese. Location stile tavola calda americana. Diversi menù e ampia scelta anche per vegetariani. Prezzi al di sotto della media e buona qualità dei prodotti. Staff tutto al femminile simpatiche, cordiali e super efficienti. Un rilassante brunch inglese

Mini brunch, fried egg crispy, beans and bacon warmish, the sausage I did not even taste and lots of cold chips. £8.50 wasted. Never again.

Quick visit for lunch before an event at the AO, friendly staff and big menu. Food quality average at best - omelette was passable but small in size compared with chips which were lukewarm.

Having checked the opening times online, I visited at around 3:15pm. One of the servers came to the counter and asked what I wanted. I noticed mushrooms and other breakfast items were still on display, so I asked if they had any bacon/sausage sandwiches. Another server then interjected and told me that they did not, and they weren’t serving anymore. I’m not quite sure why I was turned away, but as a result I went to Café North and got a (probably much better) bacon, sausage and egg butty.

I am very disappointed, went there for home maid pie, changed my mind last minute and got the big breakfast, big mistake, the only thing on the plate i liked was the bacon, the sausage was awful, mushrooms was a horrible grey colour they tasted like they had been boiled, the black pudding wasn't cooked enough, would not go there again.

I am a regular at this cafe as i live in the city centre, and i usually have the full English breakfast .... it's a basic, busy city centre cafe serving basic food, no fuss, no frills , which suits me down to the ground .... it's the type of place that you could go in on your own, and you don't feel awkward, all kinds of people use it including construction workers, shoppers and families , old and young ..... the staff are always helpful ...... my only small 'gripe', is that the food can sometimes be a bit on the lukewarm side, but a mention to the staff and they will quickly amend it ..... the place never seems to be short of customers, either eating in, or taking away, and has stood the test of time, which probably speaks volumes for it.

I had a large breakfast and swapped out the black pudding and mushrooms for extra hash brown which was no trouble at all! this place was just what I was looking for a good tradition fry-up with out all the fancy stuff and a good size portion. It came with a large coffee and two slices of toast for £7 which i think is very reasonable and kept me full for hours! Not the highest quality food but was very tasty and just what i needed! you get what you pay for! the staff were friendly and I didn't feel awkward sat on my own!

Was on our way to the train station before heading for home so needed breakfast so called in here .What a mistake, ordered the veggie breakfast, my partner ordered bacon , egg, sausage and a spoonful of beans with toast and a coffee each total £14.Now don’t mind paying if the food is good but this certainly wasn’t , my veggie breakfast had eggs beans , loads of tomatoes and luke warm tinned mushrooms, not a veggie sausage in sight ,wouldn’t cost much to add this to the breakfast.We were seated next to the swinging door that led to the kitchen so had to put up with the continued banging back and forth .Witnessed the waitress returning to the kitchen with fish and chips which a customer had complained about and the waitress was muttering to herself as she passed “ nothing wrong with this” .My partner went to the counter to pay and was stood for over 5 minutes before being seen too.I found out the reason for the lukewarm warm when she returned as she mentioned the food at the counter was in stainless steel tubs with each ingredient in and this was used to fill your order so wasn’t cooked fresh .The quality of the food was poor as the ingredients tasted cheap .Surprised the cafe had a steady stream of customers but we won’t certainly visit again the next time we visit Manchester, and I am not one to complain as it’s my first ever negative review but the food was just so poor .

Ubicado en el famoso centro comercial, el café es un lugar agradable y amigable para tomar un bocado o incluso una comida completa. La comida es casera y de alta calidad, lo que explica por qué los precios son ligeramente más altos que un café promedio. El personal está listo para ayudar y fue muy amable al satisfacer las solicitudes especiales de mi compañero. Solo un "aspecto" malo: no es fácil de encontrar y me llevó diez minutos deambular antes de llegar allí (pero en parte es culpa del mapa del centro comercial). Definitivamente será nuestro lugar favorito para una comida cuando regresemos a Manchester.

Había comida más que suficiente para comer, a pesar de que era muy sabrosa. La comida estaba caliente y casera. Me encantaron las verduras y las papas fritas de la cabaña, que me llenaron. El chip de mi compañero - el trasero estaba lleno de chips. Se recomendó probar el fish and chips, que probará la próxima vez en Manchester. Recomiendo encarecidamente este café si quieres una comida abundante.

Se dirigía al metro en Arndale para ser honesto en el almuerzo, miró este lugar y decidió darle una oportunidad. Debo admitir todas las veces que trabajé y visité Manchester, nunca antes había estado aquí. Mi error, ya que es un café limpio y agradable, con un personal encantador y amable y una buena comida a buen precio. Tuve el rollo de pollo piri - piri. El rollo era encantador, suave y fresco: tenías la opción de elegir con o sin ensalada y elegí con. El rollo se hizo fresco, no preparado previamente, y el pollo estaba muy picante, lo que personalmente me gusta, pero si no te gusta el picante, entonces no es para ti. Mi esposa tenía una tostada de queso que de nuevo disfrutaba mucho. Sin duda volveremos.

La comida es, obviamente, de un estándar bajo y económico: las salchichas en mi gran desayuno más que comestible. Nada fue un placer comer. Lo único positivo de este lugar es la variedad de imágenes extravagantes de conocidos personajes de Coronation Street que adornan las paredes y los menús.

Vino a desayunar el domingo 25 y fue horrible. Pedimos un desayuno vegetariano y un desayuno normal. Pedí cambiar mi huevo de un huevo frito a un huevo revuelto y me dieron una mirada sucia como si fuera demasiado problema. Me dieron té con leche cuando lo tengo negro y luego tuve otra mirada sucia cuando pedí que se cambiara. La comida que teníamos no estaba muy caliente: en el desayuno vegetariano, el único platillo caliente era el hash browns. En el desayuno normal, el único elemento caliente era la salchicha. También en el menú indicaba que debería haber habido pudin negro que todos en sus desayunos no tenían en mis maridos. Realmente infeliz con esto y no volveré otra vez.

Aunque no había prisa, y muchas mesas vacías, tuvimos que pedir que la mesa se limpian, sólo para tener un pedazo de tela sucia que estaba en la mesa junto a la nuestra. Por suerte teníamos nuestra propia desinfectantes para limpiar después. Luego tuvimos que esperar un largo tiempo para conseguir un plato de ensalada fría (anunciado en la entrada por £2. 99 y terminó costando £4. 50) y patatas al horno. La calidad de la comida estaba por debajo de la media, la ensalada de aspecto y sabor como fue preparado ayer, no en todos, el fresco patatas al horno era el peor que he tenido en mucho tiempo.

After walking out of the CAFE Metro across the road I came into the Rowntree's Cafe (takeaway or eat in cafe) seeking a Full English Breakfast which would be better value than across the road, it's certainly what I got. (at £8.50 across the road as you have to pay extra for the the two rounds of toast and for the tea) in comparison you get the two rounds of buttered thick toast and a mug of tea included here for the £5.95 so overall it was excellent value).

I have been to Rowntrees a few times over the last few weeks for lunch and have been really impressed by the friendly, fast service. The Arndale Centre is often packed at lunchtimes, especially in the run up to the Christmas period and Rowntrees was super busy - the staff made a real effort to identify tables that were coming free for people who were waiting and to get you seated as quickly as possible. Once seated I ordered a jacket potato with a cup of tea and the service was super fast which was great when you're at work and you only have a limited amount of time for lunch. It was also really quick to pay up at the end. All in all I was really impressed at the level of service and efficiency in a busy City Centre cafe and would most definitely come back here again.

Arrived at the restaurant to be told to sit and await a waitress. After waiting 10 minutes in the drab decor my order was taken.BBQ Chicken Sandwich and a Chocolate Milkshake, once again I sat there with the quiet music and loud surroundings awaiting my food. My food arrives, before my drink! Without mayo and complete with shredded lettuce, a few pieces obviously mixed in when making previous sandwiches.I am then presented with a large bottle of mayonnaise and asked to help myself. This was because they had forgotten to put it on initially.As I tucked into the last few bites of my sandwich a chocolate milkshake arrived watery and not made using ice cream as advertised. Granted this was cheap coming in at £4.50 but the service and overall experience wasn't fantastic and wouldn't recommend to anyone.

We went for our regular full breakfast which is normally an exceptional meal for what you pay and then end up not being able to eat anything for the rest of the day. However, sadly after today's horror we won't be returning.The toast we received was the end slices of a loaf so two of our four slices were diminutive and not full slices and then the fried eggs, on both plates were dropped one on top of the other onto the bacon with the yolk splitting all over the bacon. There was no yolk left for the toast, what little we had, to soak up and no yolk to dip the sausage in. The food was literally thrown onto the plate. Bye bye Rowntrees which is sad after all these years. Not helped by the waitress being sullen and moody and talking about customers in front of other customers.

Top notch.Good honest food and really good prices.A credit to manchester.

Every time we return to Manchester we always return to Rowntrees in the Arndale Centre. The staff and food are always very good and the food is presented well. We have been using them now for six years and we hope to continue for many more.

Up arriving in Manchester Piccadilly we were hungry, and we was searching for a place to eat when we asked a road sweeper where a nice friendly cheap place is that we could eat. He pointed us in the direction of rowntrees. omg im so glad we asked him. it was amazing the place is clean friendly and excellent value for money the food is all home made. My husband had the full English even the black puddings was amazing. the lasagne was served with home made chips and a beautiful side salad. to much for me ( hubby finished it ) omg and the fresh coffee was to die for. dont take my word for it try it for yourself you will not be dissapointed. A++++ RATING

Good food, served by very nice staff and fairly quickly.Even the guy who cleared our plates was very pleasant to talk to.I had the mince meat and onion home made pie. It came with really nice vegetables as well as brilliant chips and gravy. My wife had the Vegetarian breakfast and cleared her plate.Highly recommended.

I went here with my sister for a birthday breakfast and was satisfied from moment set in to when I was leavingThe lady serving was very smiley and made you feel at home! Took our order then told us to take a seat. The food was brought together which is a bonus even though we had different meals. I had the BLT and it was bursting full! They definitely didn't scrimp and I was grateful! This meal kept me going for the day and was reasonable priced! Will definitely be returning!

Everytime I head into the city centre, I always struggle finding somewhere to eat thats reasonable on price an doesn't over do it, somewhere that just keeps it simple for simplicity is everything. I always end up in Rowntrees cause they just have it right, no expensive, very simple but great food, extremely friendly & helpful staff and great portions of food also. You really can't go wrong with Rowntrees, especially love the motto of the business "Feeding Hungry Mancunians" as a Mancunian this just makes this place personally special for me.

We came here twice during our visit to Manchester to see family. They come here often and it was delicious. It was busy but they do a great job of getting you in and out. Our large party tried numerous things on the menu, all of which were great!

While visiting my family, they took us to eat here twice as they come here often. Both times we had great experiences. Good food, friendly staff and affordable. Would highly recommend the plate of chips with the BLT!

Came here after a night of drinking in hope to find a full English breakfast and good cup of tea. This place was recommended by a security guard in one of the clothes shops on the high street and it was brill. 2 full breakfasts and 2 cups of tea for £12.00 was brill. Will happily return when next in the area.

This is the motto of the Rowntrees Cafe in the Arndale off High Street. Dined at lunch, food very good with tea in a mug. Good value for a varied menu with four specials per day. Liver and onions was my choice with home made chips. Will definitely return when next in City centre

Visited for breakfast.Seated quickly, order taken quickly and food arrived quickly - brilliant. Food cooked in front of you at the front of the cafe, a nice touch.The ladies who serve here are just lovely and really down to earth. I noticed they knew a few of the customers names, obviously regulars. A nice touch.Food was lovely and very reasonably priced.Would definitely visit again.

Hadde frokost her og den var veldig god. Hadde omelett som smakte godt og var bra tilberedt. Kaffen kunne vært bedre. Betjeningen var veldig hyggelige. Interiøret er kult og minner om en amerikansk diner. Stedet passer fint for frokost og jeg ville gått hit igjen.

We have been using this cafe now for a number of years on our visits to Manchester and never been disappointed. It has changed hands but it still retains it's name. Nothing has changed though with the food it is still great value. The interior has had a makeover and looks good in orange. Over the years they have always maintained that they do the best chips in Manchester and I can vouch for their claim. Good food, good staff and good surroundings make Rowntrees well worth a visit and you can take in the shopping as it's is in the Arndale Centre.

At least Costa Coffee is one of the original businesses still, operating at the Grand Arcade. This is one place that we visit and have always been pleased with the coffee and service.
