Lovely little place hidden in an industrial estate at Sharston/Gatley. A great idea and concept locally. Food is decent, prices are ok, portions are a bit small however.

The concept of this place is good. A coffee was £3. A black lady behind the counter was friendly. A big bluebottle fly kept settling on my coffee cup but that could happen anywhere of course. I will try it again sometime. To be brutally honest, a coffee machine here would be a great idea.

What a shock this place is on an industrial estate in wythenshawe ! The staff, cleanliness and food is first class! Go take a look! big industrial unit, very modern funish8ngs and also a community shop with great deals! We were shocked and going back this week, and our favourite place to eat and the food prices and drinks are unbeatable for the price! it's worth a trip 💫 ps also fantastic to find a place that isn't worried about this being a christian founded operation built on Christian values, helping people get back on course, brilliant in times where we find the faith of our country attacked daily even by the leader of the Christian church in the uk.

Every town should have a message “Mess Cafe” I highly recommend the salads, but I have to say , my personal favourite is the beetroot and goats cheese salad!!! Absolutely phenomenal… every bite releases a burst of flavour to the taste buds. Commandments to the chef. The coffee is the best I’ve ever tasted, far superior t the high end coffee shops! Staff are warm, welcoming and professional. Thank you for making my stay a wonderful experience.

Honestly a very good experience. I woke up today wanting a Fresh avocado on toast! Looked for places close to me and found this cafe on Google. While driving there I got confused for being in an Industrial state and nearly turn ed around... But no! What a surprise. I loved the place/the service/the food so yummy. Honestly I am going back tomorrow for more. Thank you 🥰

What a diamond in the rough. It may be sited in an industrial estate but it is definitely no greasy spoon. Each meal is averaging at about £10 - £12 and then drinks on top. The selection is awesome and has a more upper end cafe experience. The staff are amazing, so friendly and attentive. Great customer service and good food too.

Fantastic place and a proper gem. Needed to work remotely whilst my mum went in for an operation at a hospital nearby and this place was the perfect spot. Really open and spacious, with plenty of windows for lots of natural light, really cool vibe and setting, chilled music and atmosphere, nice furniture, enough sockets to work remotely, really enjoyable food and drinks at good prices as well as it being part of a charitable community. What more can I say? Would deffo come here again and rate it well

The Candy crush choc wasn't half as good as I expected but I can see they were trying to be innovative but the crushed candy was hard on the teeth and too stark a contrast with the hot choc drink which caused a clash. Marshmallows work way better.

One bad experience after the other. First time I went to this place I had to wait 35-40 mins before even getting to speak to someone to put in my order just to be told they didn’t have what I wanted (despite being on the menu Gave them another shot and went with my colleagues. We mostly all ordered at the same time. I ordered a bare chicken burger, just that!! Tell me why all my colleagues received their order after 15-20 mins or so and I received mine after a whole hour!!! Despite having ordered prior to some of my colleagues. I physically had to go to the counter and chase my order. And even after that it took a further 10 mins to come. In other words, they forgot my order. Such a bad experience. I wanted to eat with my colleagues and instead ended up being the last one eating while everyone had finished. As this was during lunch breach and I didn’t want to delay my colleagues; I had a few bites and had to take the food back to the office. You turned a good experience out to just being annoyed; didn’t even end up enjoying the food. The fact that after a whole hour someone came around and had to ask me what I ordered; then said it would come; 10 mins nothing, I chased on the till, nothing! Then the same woman who took my order passed by and her expression was “oh your food I forgot again”. Like!! Cmon!!! Y’all need to do your job properly. I am never going there ever again cause you’ll Make someone enter happy and leave annoyed and upset. £10 for a bad experience How can you literally forget a customers order?! You need better management and customer service and no the burger was not worth the wait. The fact that a customer had to be the one to remind you of their own order says a lot about the management and the workers. You need to do better Definetly do not do there if you want a quick bite! If you have hours to spend waiting for food and you’re not hungry then sure! But definetly not for lunch time

Ordered two small breakfasts at £8 each...£4 extra to double up to a big one. Americano £2.90. Have only been once before but well worth visiting. The building is a community hub with lots of activities. Good quality food.

New years eve about 11am. Turned up to have a breakfast after an appointment nearby and we found on Google maps as a place marked as open. We turned up and the shutters were down but their doors open, we went inside to the counter to be told they are closed by a lady who wasn't that friendly, closed despite a man sat there at a table with a coffee and eating a snack. Dissapointed and won't be going back to try. Would have been an idea to update social media if you know Your going to be closed. (Including google) Dissapointed as you had so many lovely and great reviews.
