The Old Bank Cafe in Bolton

Tasteless cheese and tomato toastie

I can't praise this place enough I go in a few times a week and I've had the afternoon tea on numerous occasions and wouldn't go anywhere else for afternoon tea the staff are friendly the cafe and toilets are lovely and clean and everything is cooked freshly my favourite place .

Such a friendly place and lovely food

Great food, lovely staff, and sensible prices!

Really nice place. Value for money. Lovely staff. Great standards. And you're helping a worthwhile cause. Oh and the coffee was nice too.

Lovely little place, fantastic prices and all the staff were so friendly too

Lovely warm welcome from the front of house staff. Very tasty breakfast. The American pancakes were great. Fantastic hot chocolate and good quality coffee. Will we be back - you bet. Brilliant.

Love going in, everyone is so friendly and helpful, I've enjoyed looking for bargains and always good quality, will continue to go + the cafe is of the same ilk. Meet up with my friends often

Descent sensible place for breakfast at a good price.

Moved to this area around 9 months now and took the opportunity finally both had time off work so decided this would be a good time to sample the breakfast 😀 went Thursday morning they open at 10am Greetings by all staff smiling happy faces , tables lovely as the seating English breakfast was delicious and well presented as was the China cups for our tea. There are toilets 🚻 disabled access and a ramp outside so not confirmed by myself, charity shop in same building, Not really a Downside as it fills up quickly as it doesn't have a massive are but don't let that put you off visiting. we were impressed with the quality and £ prices 👌 staff deserves a massive 👏 especially as they volunteer there services. Well done and we look forward to returning.

We had a lovely full English breakfast, eggs, bacon, sausage and beans and two pieces of lovely granary toast. To drink we had a latte, great value, lovely service. Would definitely recommend.

In spite of huge sign outside saying 'Carrs Pasties ' they didn't sell any .. sweet tea room though.. but don't go ten minutes before they close... They will serve you and then start cleaning around you ..

Fantastic cafe, we had the afternoon tea which was delicious. Excellent value and beautifully presented. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Cafe was spotlessly clean I've never been before but will definitely be going back.

Another great visit food spot on thank you all

Lovely staff serving lovely and affordable food

Very clean & staff friendly and helpful, thanks x

The Old Bank Cafe (Bolton Hospice) What a lovely, homely place to have something to eat! Delicious chicken and stuffing barm with gravy, while the kid who is a teenager and can’t be ‘bovvered’ thoroughly enjoyed a hot cheese and ham toastie , with a latte with caramel! Result! Go to The Old Bank Cafe if you are meeting a family member or friend for a warm ambiance , cheerful staff and tasty coffee! Fabulous! Highly recommended!

This is a lovely little cafe. The ladies who work there are so welcoming to everyone. They make a great cup of tea and very tasty bacon barms. Will definitely go back to sample more of the lovely food on offer.

Lovely. Would Highly recommend along with a visit to the charity shop right next door

A nice place to eat and meet friends and even the staff r really friendly

Good place for a cup of tea and a toastie

Great food run by volunteers who are great. Cant fault it. Keep up the good work.

Consistently good food, top quality. Wonderful, friendly, helpful staff. Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lovely friendly atmosphere and service. Nice, simple cafe type food and a very fair price.

This is a really friendly little cafe with a charity shop attached to the other side. Very cosy and welcoming environment

Popular cafe nice food charity shop adjacent very handy

Always excellent. Wonderful volunteers, great food, amazing prices.

SIPPORT BOLTON HOSPICE The ladies here are utterly lovely. Very accommodating on how/wants things. Never been here before but will definitely come back.

Great food great prices in charity shop

Definitely worth a visit. Good food and drink at reasonable prices.

Lovely homecooked food..love how the tea was served in beautiful tea cups and tea pot. Affordable prices

A very pleasant and clean little café. I enjoyed my tea and coffee, the cakes looked lovely although I resisted the temptation. The service is friendly and polite. Well worth a visit.

Only had a hot chocolate it wasn't the best but very clean

Lovely cafe! Run by very pleasant, helpful and polite volunteers. Reasonably priced. Good menu considering the size of the cafe. Tea served in proper tea cups, but you can have a mug if you prefer. Real butter with toasted tea cakes. Will definitely go back to try their home made apple pie and custard! Went back a few days later to treat my brother for his birthday. Again staff were lovely and food excellent! We also had desserts which were excellent. Cannot recommend this cafe highly enough.

The staff couldn't do enough for us. Afternoon tea was delicious 😋

Decent food not the cheapest but nice friendly service clean and tidy

Went there to a Hospice function so didn't use the cafe but staff were very pleasant and the menu looked good..

very lovely staff really enjoy coming here on my dinner break!:)

What an absolute little gem this cafe is! Beautiful home made food (the quiches are amazing) Always come to this cafe when visiting family in Bolton

This cafe is attached to a charity shop and is clean, inexpensive and has a good menu. The staff are great and there is a good opportunity to have a root through for bargains. Why not pop in when doing your Asda shop.

Great service, easy to order, nice food, nice touch on the spoons with Christmas themes. Loos in good condition. Easy menu good value

Friend volunteers here & while in the area thought I'd give it a try. Very reasonable prices, clean & friendly, you wouldn't know it was here. Give it a try, I'll be going back.

Great shop nice people lovely stuff and good prices

Beautiful cakes, if you like them give it a go, foods good as well

Went the Hospice charity shop not the cafe

A very clean and wonderful little cafe with a lot of eye catching features.

Came here with my mum and my grandma and the panini's were great and so was the chocolate fudge cake. The customer service were friendly and approachable. I'll be sure to come back sometime!

Just dropped a few bags of good enough to be sold agains for the shop..., friendly staff..

Cleen friendly good food lovely staff

Very good cafe. Staff very friendly

Really friendly volunteers run this cafe. Very clean and the food was delicious and reasonably priced.

Really nice food and staff. Very inexpensive and the cafe itself is spotless and clean and beautifully done out.

Bustling and great atmosphere. Jean was very helpful!

Had lunch at the cafe today xx the food was fresh and tasty and cakes, tarts soup was home made x lovely volunteers were very friendly and welcoming xx the atmosphere is brilliant xxx definitely worth a visit xx parking outside is a bonus xx

Had BLT and a Flat White. Very enjoyable, and a worthy cause.

Nice food not cheap or too expensive

Good lunch time food and supporting a fantastic hospice 👍👏

Lovely volunteer staff, delicious cakes and very clean and welcoming.

Great little place for a coffee and snack.

Awesome!!!! We think its fab, with lovely and very helpful staff. Maybe a vegan option (soya milk, flora butter, jacket potatoe/beans) I generally take my own milk and have a chutney with salad sandwich, no butter. Which is nice tbh.. love the cafe anyway and a bonus... great prices too!

Lovely food good friendly service and now CE atmosphere

Overly expensive. Following a response from owner I'd like to add that you are still a charity shop and to be honest comparing prices to four seasons isnt much of a comparison as their prices are astronomical. Please look to the wider area for prices and what's offered. Food was nice I must add

This a an excellent small cafe offering snacks and light meals for all - with a range of Gluten free snacks as well. The food and drinks are fresh and well cooked - a reasonable range of snacks both hot and cold with friendly staff who serve you with a smile. Take time to pay a visit and at the same time support a great cause !

We had the festive afternoon tea, it was wonderful. Service excellent, table and food set up really nicely and lovely to look at. All the food was fresh and delicious, great selection of different items both sweet and savoury. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Price was very reasonable for what was provided and all going to a good cause, Bolton Hospice. Would recommend this to anyone and we will definitely go back. Thanks everyone.

Lovely cafe, lovely food, lovely ladies.

Great stop for a brew and bite to eat before going over the road to asda

For what you pay (which is very little) the food is out of this world!

Lovely friendly staff at a reasonable price.

A lovely afternoon tea for eleven to celebrate New arrivals and forthcoming expected babies Delightful,fresh ,varied afternoon tea.beautifully presented,and served by fab staff and volunteers We were made very welcome and nothing was too much trouble Thoroughly enjoyed it,thank you!

Called in here for coffee after visiting ASDA nearby. Took a 3 year old with us. The staff were really good giving her special attentio with her ice cream, which she loved. We had a snack on that occasion. Called back a couple of days later and had a lovely lunch.

Nice coffee and sandwich. Very reasonable. Will be back.

Lovely service! Great food and gorgeous room to sit and eat!

good food good service good prices and all for a very good cause

Great to have a cafe in a charity shop.

Excellent food and service, I love the place

We ordered an afternoon tea. Both of us disappointed. The scones and sandwiches tasted as if they had been left in the fridge beforehand and therefore not fresh. Good sized tea pot though. Lots of other meals.coming out that looked more appetising. Not a return visit for us.

Brilliant atmosphere...friendly staff and excellent food.

Lovely cafe great food and service

Great place love meetimg here for a catch up for work food great

Had a lunch with friends. lots of choices..nice sandwiches with fresh salad. very reasonably priced choice of cakes and afternoon teas served

Having lunch with my favourite Auntie, Partner and Step Daughter today was lovely. The food was very nice and their hot drinks are delicious. The staff are lovely too ... will be returning xxx

Very nice place to meet and eat thanks

Genuinely lovely place, excellent food and drinks all served with a smile.

Good service for a very good cause

Loved it. Good food and service. Reasonably priced food and all for a good cause.

Nice and new but could do with a more varied menu. Tea and cake eatery is nice, but limited. I know it's a hospice shop, but they could do a bit better

A lovely place for a bite to eat and a drink after looking for a bargain in the shop. Completely run by volunteers for the benefit of Bolton Hospice a very worthwhile organisation. They have jobs for everyone who has some time to help and welcome donations. Car parking is free and if full Asda is just across the road.

Lovely little cafe, good food at reasonable prices. I'm a regular visitor.

Went here for a quick bite to eat. The staff are really friendly, the food and coffee are both lovely and the cafe is immaculately clean. Would highly recommend for breakfast/sandwiches/coffee and cake.

Great food and get service. Super clan environment also

A lovely afternoon and brilliant food. Will be back 😋

Went for afternoon tea with my daughter and we really enjoyed it.

Thanks for a good meal and service 😀

Great shop today ,got some soft toys for my granddaughter and books

This is a lovely shop with a great tea room.

The cafe is great. The staff are really nice and welcoming. The cakes are yummy. However I don't want to comment on the staff at the charity shop.
