The Hope Centre Cafe in Cheshire East - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This is a lovely light and relaxing place to meet friends for coffee and snacks. There is always someone to talk to or if you want to be quiet they will leave you alone!! Great cappuccino and you also get a little glass of smarties with every order. It is a gift and book shop too.

This place is such a little gem of a "find", and I've been many times now. It's situated in the pleasant, quieter Park Green area of Macclesfield, with easy on road parking, or a cheap Pay and Display car park directly opposite. The atmosphere and the staff (all volunteers) are very warm and friendly. The cappuccino's are good. The hot bacon baguettes are totally yummy, and made with tasty fresh bacon supplied by top butchers, Spearings, who are next door but one. I don't have a sweet tooth, but the cakes always look very appetising, and my friend assured me hers was delish. Prices are very reasonable too. I shall try one of the other snacks next time. Oooo, I don't know though - those extra special bacon butties are always so tempting. My mouth's watering just thinking about one!! In fact, I'm going to have to go and have one NOW, as soon as I've finished writing this, that is. Whenever I've popped in on my own, I've always got chatting to some really nice friendly people. I'm not religious, but interestingly it was set up by a collaboration of 39 of the local churches to serve the Macclesfield community, I guess as a sort of friendly meeting place. But also to create funds for various needy projects, both from the sale of the food and drink purchased, and an assortment of gift items, cards, books etc. So your hungry tummies are also providing monies for good causes. Do Go - it's GOOD. Right, speaking of hungry tummies, I'm whizzing off down there right away, for one of those tasty bacon . . . .

Hope Centre is a great place for a good coffee and a chat. It is a Christian coffee shop and bookshop that sells an interesting range of food and books & gift products. I had a lovely bacon sandwich. Accessible for 1hr off street parking.
