The Vienna Coffee House in Manchester

Situated next to St Peter’s square, opposite the Art Gallery, Vienna Cafe is the perfect location for a nice brunch. Food and drinks were nice, we had potato and leek soup, full English breakfast and Biscoff pancakes; we got orange juice freshly squeezed which ended up being the star of the brunch. The cappuccino was also good. Overall the food didn’t particularly stand out but it wasn’t bad at all. They offer a very good range, would recommend paying a visit to this spot

Very loud and rowdy inside. The design of the restaurant increases the sounds within. Very busy at lunchtime. Ordered a 5 berry smoothie - was disappointed at the small size of the smoothie. Watery thin textured smoothie. Located centrally.

Outstanding brunch and excellent value for money

Best Hot Chocolate, Cappuccino I ever had. Well visited location.

Stumbled upon this cafe by complete suprise and a hint of curiosity; this time it served well. The cafe offers a selection of Austrian style coffee's, with a nice welcoming atmosphere to drink in or take away. I had the Fiaker, a very nice double shot mocha with whipped cream and glacier cherries 🍒 Will be coming back again to try different coffee ☕.

Slowest service in the world. 25+ minutes for two coffees and a scone! It didn't respect the order of arrival to take the orders, which meant that 3 bigger tables ordered their brunches and drinks before us... really disappointed!

Top quality Breakfast and Coffee, in a great location just off St Peters Square 👍

Great brunch! We had the pancakes & also the poached eggs & bacon. Both delicious. Recommend the fruit smoothie too. Nice staff, good menu, good food.

I love the food in this place but on someday, they don't open on time. I was stood outside til 8.05am this morning and needed to get off to work. Would've been nice to have got breakfast and a drink to take with me but I ended up going elsewhere. If you say you open at 8am, then open at 8am!

Visit here whenever in Manchester on an overnight stay - they do lovely coffee I have to say! I had poached eggs on sourdough with sausage and mushrooms and it was very nice

Delicious vegan and gluten free brunch.

Really nice place to enjoy a variety of breakfast!! Definitely in my next visit of Manchester I want to back! The service was really nice!

Quite simply the finest Full English I've had for a long while. Very decent coffee too.

Great service, food cooked perfectly! Vegan options for drinks and breakfast.

Beautiful place, very friendly staff and very good plates. I really appreciated the art and photographs on all the walls, they’re a real touch of style. I fell in love with the pistachio cake, it was very delicious. Food and drinks were perfect. Great experience

Amazing place. Great food and very friendly host. The espresso coffee is one of the best in Manchester and also the cakes.

A very good place with an relax atmosphere and wonderful food... The pistachios cake... Amazing... I love it. Thank you so much

Excellent service, great tasting coffee, really good prices. Would highly recommend if you are visiting the city.

Really nice place, been before and everything was awesome. Only complaint if any was that it was really warm upstairs, like Really warm. Maybe an air con unit needs to be installed as it was a tad uncomfortable, but everything else was amazing.

Now that my usual cafe near the Town Hall has become inconsistent I was delighted when a colleague introduced me to Vienna Coffee House. Breakfast this morning was an excellent ham, cheese and mushroom omelette with a lovely crisp salad (admittedly salad at breakfast time is a bit odd!). And a really good blue berry smoothie. The ambience is very relaxing (compared to commuters rushing past outside and full trams heading into St Peter's Sq). Gentle music, attentive staff and Neil Roland photos on the wall all add to the effect. Highly recommended.

We took coffee and sweets...their coffee is delicious and their sweets are perfect

Absolutely friendly service! And a very good coffee. The view of the museum and the street invites you to linger.

I went there today for breakfast and it was horrible. I ordered the waffle with Nutella and berries. It was the most disgusting waffles I have ever had. They were cold, doughy and just not edible. They were definitely not fresh either. So I just ate the fruits over it. The staff didn’t seem to care much. Highly NOT recommended.

Came for breakfast before my graduation and was lovely. The food and drinks were great with plenty of options for everyone. Will definitely be back

Quick service. Enjoyed the Viennese coffee.

Great food, great service, low waiting time. Would recommend for breakfast.

Prelude: After a visit to the art gallery opposite, decided to pop in for a pick-me-up. Contrary to popular perceptions about eateries in the direct proximity to museums etc., this place is far from a tourist trap! Staff: Warmly welcoming and offered to talk me through recommend options for coffee. Chose the eponymous Venetian coffee with a cheery twist, absolutely delicious! Bit like a cross between vintage milkshake and espresso, but not so creamy that it reduces the caffeine punch. Greatly encouraged by the quality of my drink, I ordered a chicken salad, which was freshly prepared with appetising sauce on side. Portion was HUGE! The chicken was lovely roasted, with tomatoes and peppers properly sorted. Not a fan of ‘raw’ looking salads so it was definitely 100% for me. Atmosphere: Modern pastiches of artworks on the wall,nothing special to look at but suits the vibe from the gallery just fine. Conclusion: Would come back next time in town, count on that! PS No filters on the food; would spoil the originality amazing look otherwise 😋

Wonderful, central coffee shop with lots more to offer too- we had beautiful , fresh smoothies, tea, iced latte and all were amazing. lots of cakes, we had the vegan lemon cake which was nice :)

it was two Viennese coffees, Fiaker and Franziskaner. costs 4.7 each and lemon cake. fast prepared and tasty

Great food, great people especially Turkish lady, big portions.

Absolutely fantastic latte. Will certainly be going back. Good atmosphere and very friendly and happy staff.

It is an early time to reach Manchester. As we are after the arrival at the airport, we just want to find something to eat. By the way, it is also the first time we visit Manchester. This is a good place to rest and chill. The food is good and the drinks are also very nice. Omelett tastes good, and the Benedict egg is excellent, too. My Cuppucino is the best one I have ever tasted before. Of course, the Earl Grey tea and the chocolate milk shake also fit my family taste, too. It is my suggestion to recommend any of you to come and enjoy the time here.

The waffles, milkshakes and pancakes have no taste but sugar. Service is ok. The atmosphere and place is nice.

Great place. As a small party we had a gluten free selection and a vegan one. I had eggs Benedict with bacon. Everything was delicious. Lovely staff, good service.

Popped in for breakfast on the 1st June 24, great selection of food with good options including vegetarian. I had a full English was great. Coffee was very nice.Service very good staff friendly… good vibe too.

Had breakfast here 2 mornings in a row, that says it all I suppose. Nice atmosphere, even when full house. Staff very pleasant, and food excellent.

One of the best Brunch in MCR. In love with Turkish eggs.

Every time we go to Manchester we have breakfast at this place. They have a wide variety of dishes but we love their Full English Breakfast and their Scones. This time we also ordered the Porridge and we also liked it a lot. In addition, the service is attentive and the price is correct.

We loved the cafe so much, the food was delicious and service was so nice, the staff were very lovely and so kind. ☺️

Very solid breakfast place. I had a ham & cheese panini and a smoothie. The food was good. Price aint the worst either. £13.50 ish for that.

Not the same old cosy coffee shop it used to be. Food was okay, a little bland, nice drink, plenty of staff but could be more attentive, rather then gossiping about boys they only like as friends

The breakfast was excellent quick efficient service will go back

The best french toast I have ever had! All the food was really nice and staff so lovely will definitely be here again.

Had a cup of tea and a Pistachio Hazelnut slice. The white chocolate button on top was a nice addition, and it looked great, although didn’t get a lot of hazelnut flavour. Really friendly service and a warm glow of an atmosphere for a Sunday morning.

Stumbled across this gorgeous cafe this morning. Fantastic coffee and delicious food. 😋

Can't speak for the food but the coffee is great and the staff are friendly! One of my favourite coffee spots in Manchester

Good location, opposite the museum. Food was okay, nothing to shout about and the cutlery was dirty so had to get up and change, then I realised another set was dirty too, which kind of gave me the ick

Delicious coffee, quick and friendly service.

Went in for the first time today with my daughter, we had the cappuccinos with chocolate flakes , and a breakfast sandwich each, the cafe was very busy, we were seated straight away, and our order taken within 10 minutes, our drinks & food arrived very promptly, the staff were amazing, and very polite, the food was excellent, we will be returning very soon.

Food service setting all amazing. Can highly recommend the smashed Avacado. Top place for breakfast served all day.

Accidentally ordered my girlfriend the chai tea instead of chai latte and now she won't even look at me. To be fair the tea was not very good, although my coffee was better.

Charged me 2.50£ for two pieces of halloumi without telling me taking the eggs of my halloumi toast will make it vegan toast where halloumi is extra ¿ then the girl in the till argued with the nice waiter who tried to get us a refund 👎🏻

Very kind, everything was delicious and a nice place!

Perfect spot for breakfast and brunch. Delicious food. Amazing staff. Peaceful atmosphere. Best breakfast in ages. 10/10 I’d highly recommend Vienna coffee house.

Went here after an overnight in Manchester city centre and the food and service is excellent. There's a wide range of food and cater for dietary requirements too. The atmosphere is weird though. There's no music and if you're not looking out at the street all you will see and hear is the staff walking back and forth to the kitchen. Shame really.

Staff great very attentive, Food was great a little on cool side but nice ,could have done with a bit of music in background to create a bit of atmosphere .

Para desayunar o hacer un buen brunch como los ingleses es un sitio estupendo…Tienen una gran variedad de desayunos y están riquísimos el café también está bastante bueno, nos ha encantado obviamente volveremos.

Wat een geweldige plaats! Super vriendelijk personeel, heerlijke koffie, rustig en gezellig. Hele fijne plaats om rustig een koffietje te drinken!

I had the full English and tea. The food was delicious, the sausages were amazing (would highly recommend) the beans were the perfect thickness and not a runny mess, the eggs were perfect and were not runny. Basically everything tasted great. Aside from the food, the whole place has a relaxing vibe. I apologise as I forgot to take a picture of my plate when it arrived as I tucked in straight away but I can tell everyone reading this review that nothing went to waste.

Lovely cafe, excellent friendly staff.

Delicious chai and coffee, but very slow service- 30 mins wait for a coffee

Another great breakfast of French Toast with banana,peanut butter and maple syrup. Our go to place for Breakfast when staying in Manchester. Friendly, clean, great artworks on the walls, great food, consistently good and not a chain coffee shop. Whats not to like

just a really nice underrated place!! good prices, good food and amazing service. highly recommend.

Went there to take out cakes - which were all pretty great. The pistachio and chocolate coated cake was the highlight, but the chocolate biscoff cake and the lemon drizzle one were also quite good. Big slices too

called I for coffee out of the rain! ended up with waffles/cheesecake....as you do! delicious . Friendly staff.

Actually siting in here as I’m writing this, as this place is incredible. The fresh oranges juice was just what I needed and the food was delicious. The sausages on the full English is something out of this world and the smashed avocado (they give you halloumi, bacon and poached eggs) was delicious too. If ever in Manchester again, we will defo be returning

This is the second time I’ve been to this cafe, very nice place.

Nous y avons pris 2 jours de suite notre brunch . La serveuse a toujours été patiente et charmante avec nous . Les plats choisis étaient copieux et bons . Nous recommandons !

Lovely cafe, delicious food specially breakfast.

I had high hopes for this place after looking on their website. Never again! Excellent service but my drink came cold and tasted awful and was not the drink i ordered that you have a picture of on your offical page, ( i have had a better drink at my local starbucks) my food came slapped on the plate and didn't go together well. They need to take the salad off the plate and put the potato on a smaller plate with less beans and coleslaw on the side, not sommit that looks like prison food. I will not be bringing the girls here for a meal as planned!

Excellent breakfast, friendly service.

Googled best Pancakes in Manchester & Vienna coffee house popped up, thought I’d give it a try. If I’m honest a few things let the place down, even though I had a lovely time. Menus were falling apart & had food & drink stains on them. The chai latte was only Luke warm & the powder hadn’t been mixed properly at the bottom of the cup. Waitresses serving food to the table made no interaction, just put the food on the table. I still rate this place as the food that came out was lovely, but maybe focus on the above so I can give it a 5* next time 👍

Outstanding independent coffee shop. So good, we had breakfast and returned for lunch. We loved the 'all day menu' concept and enjoyed the French toast with fresh berries. Perfect...and lovely presentation. Food and drinks arrived super quick, staff were efficient and very polite. The prices were reasonable, £4 for a mocca with cream and biscuits seems great value compared to some of the soulless chain coffee shop prices.

Food was fantastic and friendly service. Was very busy which was a good sign as ot was our 1st time here. Price was reasonable.

We discovered this lovely place to stop and have a tea and coffee (every week) on our fixed maintenance route. Its got to be said it really is great customer service, which includes polite staff, table service as standard and overall an easy going atmosphere plus good music. The Vienna coffee house puts the "dirty" Cafe Nero only 2 doors down on the same street-to shame. A little gem hidden in plain site on Mossley Street Mcr.

Lekker ontbeten! Vriendelijke mensen.

I met a lovely couple on the table next door and we chatted away. Lovely independent place this. Highly recommended and I had like the worlds first pistachio soy latte here so get me

Really enjoyed our visit.Great table in the window on a perfect day to sit and admire our beautiful city with The Art Gallery directly opposite.Our food and coffees all top quality and we will certainly return. Friendly efficient staff. Thankyou to all!

I travel up to Manchester for work trips & always look forward to my next visit into Vienna Coffee House. It’s part of my work trip routine & try to encourage colleagues (often successfully) to experience a delicious Melange. -Always clean -Great window seats available -Chatty, friendly staff

Lovely cafe. Food and drinks were all delicious and good value for money. Decent amount of veggie options as well!

After walking around in Manchester we wanted to have a coffee and we passed by on our way to our hotel. We entered were seated at a window table which had a view of the pedestrians passing by. The cafe offers a nice variety of coffees and for me the highlight are the Viennese coffees. The cappuccino with the flake was excellent. The home made cakes were also very nice. Although we did not eat the food menu was interesting with a variety of snacks and breakfast options.

Went for a cream tea very nice and they topped up the tea when we asked came away happy and full

I've called here twice in the last month for breakfast. I had the eggs benedict with smoked salmon, both times and it was excellent. The staff were quick and courteous. An extremely pleasant experience on both occasions.

The french toast was just incredible. And good coffee too.

Would definitely recommend it to anyone!!!

We popped into here after spending a day wandering around Manchester. If you can get a window table, it’s a very good spot for people watching. Great cakes too!

Best coffee in Manchester by far. Staff are polite and very helpful. Although I didn’t eat the food menu looked tasty - stuck with coffee and a snack and it was very much value for money

The service is great, the foods are delicious and the prices are reasonable, what would you want more?

The Coffee was one of kind ,pancakes were so delicious and the freshly squeezed orange juice was just perfect 🤩

The Coffee was one of kind ,pancakes were so delicious and the freshly squeezed orange juice was just perfect 🤩Definitely will come again!!!🥰

Well the food was nice but I won't be going again. Staff with attitude - not what you want in hospitality. The waitress with blue in her hair served us - what an attitude she had. Wouldn't let us sit where we wanted as 'we need those for larger groups' - the place was nearly empty - and then proceeded to let someone else sit there. No skimmed or semi-skimmed milk IN A COFFEE PLACE but almond, oatmeal etc. Basic. Attitude again. I wouldn't recommend it if you like to be treated with respect.

Love this place. Got the all day breakfast as always because it never disappoints. Staff courteous and it was clearly busy which is great. Small wait time. Well worth it and deffo recommend a visit even you only go once...

Service a bot slow today but food gorgeous as usual

Popped into Vienna Coffee House with my son last Friday for a full English breakfast, we weren't disappointed. Excellent, well cooked food and two delicious coffee's did the job. Service was prompt and polite considering the café was very busy. Great all round experience. Would highly recommend.

The food was excelent and the Coffee was amazing!!!Also the service’s were really nice .a very nice waitress

Stylish coffee with cheeries and yummy carrot cake ❤️

Visited Sunday at 12.30 for an all day full English breakfast. Delicious freshly cooked breakfast very tasty. Great Service and good selection of got and cold drinks and cakes. A must visit.

Alors, les petit-déjeuners sont excellents MAIS que dire du service? Est-ce parce que nous sommes francophones et donc peu appréciés (ici en particulier), ou est-ce notre t-shirt qui ne plaît pas aux serveuses? Mystère. Toujours est-il que passer commander ici est clairement pénible tant on a l'impression de déranger le personnel qui croit appartenir à une classe sociale élevée. Je n'ai qu'une chose à dire: "Drop the attitude girls, you just work in a cafe".

Good breakfast. Great coffee and very tasty croissants. Nice atmophere and very helpgul staff. Good location in the center of Manchester.

If this is Austrian then I’m a Dutch man awful place and they even forgot to give us the cake we asked for but offf course they remembered to put in on the bill . Keep walking
