Was very excited to try this but sadly it's permanently closed I was told by their neighbors. It does not exist anymore.

The food was quite underwhelming for the price. It tasted very average, and it seemed like there wasn't much effort put into making it flavorful or unique. For the cost, I expected a higher standard in terms of taste and overall quality. Unfortunately, it felt like it fell short in both presentation and flavour.

We used to come here all the time, but lately it feels like the chef might have changed. The food’s gotten pretty bland, some of the pastries seem a bit old, and it’s gotten more expensive too.

It's good here. You can have breakfast and you can work on your laptop. Vegan breakfast was pretty good, if the portion was a little small but maybe I'm just greedy.

The atmosphere is so lovely, clean and calm. The Iceland map is such a nice touch. The staff are kind. We went for breakfast and had the House Granola and the Garlic Mushrooms on Sourdough. They were divine, I could've licked the plate! We had an Iced Berry Tea and English Breakfast Tea which were lovely, took longer to come than the food but was still nice.

I want to give a big shout out to the pregnant girl who works here (sorry didn't catch her name wad in the middle of a melt down). As a new mum with limited hands and some difficult days, I really appreciated how she went above and beyond her role. Came outside as I couldn't go in alone, talked to me and gave me a free coffee. Thanks so much for coming to talk to me, you made my day much better 💛💛

Yesterday I came because the ratings were so high and I can wholeheartedly say it was the best oat cappuccino I’ve ever had. It was so smooth and delicious I wish I bought two. The choc chip cookie was also incredible- crunchy on the outside, soft in the inside with a lovely vanilla after taste. It was however tainted by the lady who greeted and served me. She was so unnecessarily unresponsive and quite rude. Plus she looked over to see if I chose to tip or not- she was not subtle about it and had a face when I chose not to tip. Not with that service. It did shadow my experience but I’m not going to rate it down for her because the food and drink was perfection plus everyone else there seemed lovely.

I visited here whilst in Manchester over night. After googling top rated coffee shops within Manchester, this was at the top of the list. It had a very relaxed trendy feeling, plenty of seating to choose from & some lovely artwork as per one of my photos. Staff were attentive, coming to the table to take orders. I only went for a “dirty chai”, however the food I saw people eating looked very appealing.

Almost paid £4 for this little tiny oatmilk latte and its in a glass?? I've had better lattes that cost less, although the heart was pretty. I went on a Saturday as well so there was hardly any space to move and to sit down let alone be in peace and the little table I sat at was low down and wooden and uncomfortable and I ended up sitting with a stranger and having a conversation. Apparently its not always that loud and busy but on Saturdays it is, so wouldn't recommend then unless you arrive in time to pick your choice of seating. Great indoor WiFi. Nice atmosphere, however the drink was way too expensive. They have vegan options for food too.

Chilled coffee shop, breakfast/lunch/cake options and excellent coffee of course. Cool decor with school desks complete with graffiti and hanging lights. Out of all the third wave coffee shops I've visited in Manchester, I'd say Takk do the best food so i usually prioritise it over Foundation or NTP etc if i know I'm going to be eating. Personal favourite is poached eggs with salmon and avocado on sourdough.

Lovely airy space with plenty of tables. Just as well, we went for brunch on a Saturday and it was packed! Pleasant, efficient staff, and a lovely arty crowd made for a buzzing atmosphere. We had great coffee and were very tempted by the Pollen Bakery pastries and cakes, but opted for the avo on sourdough with poached egg, which was excellent. Quite simply the best I've had ❤️

Friendly staff, nice location, but most importantly quality coffee and food. The espresso was nice, a touch of bitterness but mellow flavours. Likewise for the cappuccino, though it was maybe a bit milkier than I'd usually prefer. The arepa was delicious, stuffed with cheese, served with avocado, fresh salsa, egg & crispy bacon, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

Popped in mid friday afternoon for a late lunch and managed to snag the last table avaliable. I ordered the french toast, which was epic and a perfect mid afternoon treat And an oat flat white, this was on the small side and i was slightly disappointed they didnt have many other dairy alternatives. The place has a hip feeling but not pretentious. My only advice, other than go there, is dont sit beside the stairs as i assume thats where the kitchen is and it was slightly oily/greasy smelling if there were any other seats i would have moved but alas.

The batch brew was excellent, lovely and fruity. The staff were friendly and kept the tables clean. I’m a bit confused by the opening times because here on Google it says they close at 16.30 on Fridays. But when I was there on a Friday the staff told everyone they were closing by 16.00 so everyone had to leave by then. Maybe they want to be packed up and away themselves by 16.30? But that’s not the same as being open till 16.30.

I loved your coffee and always made a special detour to get it but i noticed that coffee started to get bitter. And while I was waiting for coffee today i have realised why - girl, who takes orders, prepeares esspresso shots, and goes back to orders. Then esspresso shot states ( in my case) over 2 minutes while second poured milk in it... Such a bad practice guys. An I am not a coffee guru but I work in coffee industry for last 20 years I hope managers are aware of this. It would be such a shame to loose customers over such a small thing

Brilliant coffee and chocolate croissant with that authentically stand-offish Scandinavian service, with my espresso served on a timber board with a shot of sparkling mineral water - the henna mark of a proper 5-star coffee shop. An abundance of seating so you don’t feel rushed when dining-in, and clearly the ‘Central Perk’ for local laptop-tapping creatives. Rather awkwardly, and novelly for the UK, I was asked if I wanted to tip the staff upon ordering, when literally all that occurred was I had said hello and told them what I wanted to eat and drink. Perhaps I should also be permitted to hover over the cashier while the staff are asked by automatic prompt ‘please enter amount of discount based on how friendly the customer is’. Am I supposed to predict that the service will be great and therefore tip in advance? If so, do I get a refund for that tip if the service is not as predicted? These are issues that are easily avoided if this American (and apparently Czech) cringe is removed from our British society, with staff paid fairly and prices increased if necessary so that is possible. Nevertheless, I would happily return to this classy establishment any time with my quill and leather-bound notebook.

This place does not offer table service. I mention that because nowhere does it say so. Not on the menu, the serving counter, the wall. Nowhere. I sat at my table for 10 minutes, choosing what I wanted and then waiting to place my order. At no time did the waitress, barrista or "manager" come to me to explain. Infact nobody had said hello, or welcomed me despite having to walk right past them. When I eventually went to place my order the waitress said that the kitchen had just closed. I pointed out that I had been waiting 10 minutes to which she replied that she had't seen me. Apparently nobody had. I'm 6 feet 2 inches tall and weigh just shy of 18 stones. There was no one else at my table. But nobody saw me. They did see a young, hip type who came in. They were all over him. One other thing I should mention, I'm old. I don't think the staff here are stupid, although they all do a good impression. Any yes, they have few if any social skills, but I think their problem is that, they don't see old. My suggestion if you are north of 50, save yourself the embarrassment. Go somewhere else. You are not welcome here.

This place for us was a little gem. From the moment we walked through the door we felt welcome. It's cozy with a friendly and knowledgeable barman serving a range of beer including a number of cask ales of which we tried two and both were well kept. The place was traditional with wooden floor and tables but seemed to have a modern vibe about it.. we got a menu which was a variety of tapas and ordered a number of them. The food was well presented and was fabulous every one being very tasty. We finished with the Basque Cheescake for desert and wow its amazing, worth a visit just for that. We wouldn't hesitate to go there for a drink and something to eat again.

We used to come here regularly for brunch or occasionally a Sunday lunch when they did that, but it's gone downhill. Their menu is just a bit weird now. They have 50% off on Sundays, yet only for a small fraction of the menu which is a bit of a strange mix of sandwich and light bite options. You've got to do a lot of work to figure out what's on offer, not on offer, and what someone should order. They used to do fantastic breakfasts and brunches, but they've scaled these back to an unappealing one permutation of a breakfast sandwich (sausage, bacon and hash brown. Nothing else). No eggs anywhere on the breakfast menu these days. I might be wrong - they obviously know their market better than me - but it seems like they had a lovely food offer and they've lost it to offer an average lunch offer instead. Would love to keep on supporting this independent venue, but it's not what it was.
