Fairly new and upcoming cafe/restuarant in West Didsbury, this place is constantly busy, so clearly…read morethey must be doing something right. I took my parents here one Saturday afternoon for a little sit down and a hot drink after exploring the local shops. My Dad and I ordered a latte each and my Mum ordered a pot of peppermint tea. Both lattes came out at the perfect temperature and with a good amount of frothy milk on the top. Sadly, the pot of tea my Mum had ordered was a used pot of tea and was therefore half full and stone cold. It seems that one waitress had cleaned off another table and placed the finished with tea pot next to the freshly brewed one, so the wrong one was accidentally bought over. The staff were so apologetic and immediately bought over the actual freshly made pot of tea as soon as we noticed. After that minor mishap, everything ran smoothly and everything tasted just right. I really enjoyed the simplistic style with a few pieces of quirky artwork dotted on the walls. I'd say there's a kind of nautical theme running throughout the café, as there's ropes hanging from the ceiling and a few other seaside/fishing type items dotted around. All very cute and trendy. I'd recommend Rustik to anyone in the area, it's the perfect place (not at all like a standard high street coffee shop) to stop and have a quick drink. Also, the tables are spaced out, so you can enjoy a nice chat or catch up with friends or family without feeling like you're being listened in on.

Genuinely the best food I've had during my stay in England so far. I ordered the falafel wrap and…read morewas pleasantly surprised by the flavor combination. Delicious food and great service. I love being able to pay before the meal came so once I was finished I could leave right away without waiting for a bill.

Another update for Fuel? Another five star rating? Am I boring you, yelpers? I do apologise. If you…read morewish to snooze through the following transmission I fully understand, but should you choose to, then know that you will miss out on OMG SPLAWSOME FTW. For the very first time I was having a main meal at Fuel. A proper dinner. Not a snack, not a smoothie. Why? Everyone I know is a cow-hide biting carnivore and refuses to come to a vegetarian restaurant with me. I know, the sods. Should I come into a windfall, I may well buy new friends, then pay for their plastic surgery so they'll look just like my old friends. I digress. My mother eats meat, but she appreciates a veggie meal just as much as she enjoys some roast chicken. So she was the perfect Fuel guest. On a lazy Saturday noon, we stopped off here before she was due to get her train back to Liverpool, ordered some of their fine coffee (which I have decided is the best coffee in all of Manchester - and they gave us a pot of hot steamed milk with our Americanos which just makes them even brillianter) and perused the menu. After much deliberation and peering over at other diners' breakfasts with a mixture of intrigue and trepidation (those things are HUGE, people), I went for the blackboard special - stuffed peppers with cous cous and a Mexican side salad. My interest was piqued as to what the salad would contain. My mum opted for the 'fish' finger sandwich, and we had their mixed sweet and normal potato wedges between us. So, the 'fish' finger sandwich, huh? You're curious, I can tell. Well, in the immortal words of one Charles Sheen, WINNING! They use breadcrumbed halloumi, served with homemade tartare sauce on a wholemeal granary bun with a delicious side salad. I of course tasted this. Seriously, if you have any doubts, even really big ones, you've got to order it. It works. It works like a dream. My baked stuffed peppers with fruity cous cous and a salad below containing kidney beans, red peppers, spring and red onion was an absolute treat too. Nobody wanted to kiss me afterwards, but that was fine. I didn't need human contact. I had epic salad. Fuel just keeps getting better every time I try something new, and I'm insanely lucky to have it a mere short stroll down the road. I promise I'll never take it for granted.

I popped into Folk having gone down to Didsbury for a meeting and a change of scene and thinking it…read morewas time to actually do this on all fronts, I plumped for Folk having never actually been before (I know - it's been there forever!) First off I really liked the bar as it's a good, chilled out and welcoming sort of cafe bar. It's a bit like the Odd bars in that it's got random shizzle everywhere but it doesn't seem too over the top which is nice. There's a great selection of beers on tap and as well as all the usual standard crafts and lagers that you get nowadays, there's also a pretty sweet selection of local beers like Ticketybrew on tap. Alas I was driving and had a meeting so beer wasn't my thing on this occasion but I did plump for a tasty Moroccan lamb wrap with salad and flatbread (£9) to keep me going. It was quite nice but 3 days on I'm still unsure whether I enjoyed the taste of the lamb - it was a strange mix and I'm not certain the spice mix was quite right but I saw enough of the fresh ingredients on offer to go back and try more menu items another day - and of course stop for a pint!

Cafe bar with great interior and good food…read more Let's start this review with me saying I'm pretty biased about Folk - it was the location of my first 'date' with Dan. They were amazingly kind and on our first anniversary let me have a menu to put in with his present. It's one of my seriously happy places. They have booths at the back, a fair few tables round the bar and then a good sized outside space with seating too. The menu is good classic with a range of breakfast options served until 4pm. They also have sandwiches, a burger option, soup and a specials board. The food is freshly cooked and really good. Their bar is well stocked with great beers and spirits plus some excellent non alcoholic options their coffee is also fantastic. They also have a selection of cakes which is always changing, check out the blackboard for the options. Today they have sticky toffee, chai, honey & cinnamon, cookies & cream and berry crumble! Great relaxed atmosphere in the day and nice and lively in the evening this is a great place to try if you are in the area.

Withington is quite a student kind of area, right? From the outside, this place looked like it…read morewould be full of students eating fried eggs to get over their hangover. I was very wrong. I was in the area waiting for my car to get its MOT done at a nearby garage, and chose this café to get some breakfast. Weirdly, it was like stepping into a pub where everyone else is a local and you're very clearly not. Which was quite strange, really. Obviously they still wanted my custom nonetheless and now that I was in the café and at the counter ready to order I couldn't really turn around and leave. I was too far in. So I ordered a full English breakfast for £4.50, which isn't the cheapest ever but is a farily standard price. The ladies behind the counter were really stern, in a not smiling at me and to be honest barely even talking to me way. I didn't like this too much. Anyway, I sat down at a table and my breakfast was with me in less than five minutes. It was a really good spread, and even included black pudding which you don't get too often. Everything was hot and tasty, apart from the baked beans which were lukewarm. Aside from this, I was satisfied with my breakfast, gulped down my tea and went back to see if my car was done.

So many places offer a breakfast menu these days, that when my friend and I arrange to catch up…read moreover breakfast one morning, I thought we would be spoiled for choice. However it turns out that serving breakfast food, and actually being open at breakfast hours are two very separate issues. It transpires that many of these places don't actually open until 11am. Well that's just silly, 11am is practically lunch time. So after scouring Fallowfield for suitable breakfasts (we were trying to avoid Wetherspoons which seemed to be the only place open) we hopped on a bus down to Withington. That is where Coffee House Café rescued me from my breakfasting dilemma. Set just aside from the main high street, this place offers both outdoor and indoor seating, as well as a ridiculously cheap menu. Two crumpets will set you back a measly £1 as will a cup of tea, and a single toasted teacake is 50p. It was wonderful I tell thee, wonderful. What I also like, is that you do the spreading yourself. My teacakes arrived with butter on them, and I got to do the jam part myself, which I like, because I'm very fussy about my jam spreading (it MUST reach the edges)! The menu has pretty much everything you'd expect from a breakfast café, as well as a vegetarian option, the only thing I thought it lacked were some lighter options, such as yoghurts/fruit/muesli, that kind of thing. The atmosphere is very friendly, very animated, lots of people chattering away. There are actually two cafés on this strip, and we chose this one because it was by far the busiest, and it must have been busy for a reason. But all in all, I'm just happy that I managed to find somewhere to actually have breakfast AT breakfast-time, what a relief, I never knew it would be such hard work!
