Considering this place is a (smallish) chain - they seem to get it right!…read more I've only seen them in the suburbs of Greater Manchester but they're a handy go to if you're stuck somewhere lacking in independents. I like the fact that the staff are always pretty bubbly, easy going and super friendly - it doesn't seem fake and don't seem understaffed and overworked like some of the big chains seem to be. The coffee isn't bad and the surroundings 'Costa-ery' but a little better - I like the fact that they support local farmers for milk and even have a 2nd hand book exchange system upstairs. Nice touches!

Really really enjoyed popping into this super cool and super chilled coffee shop in Stockport…read more A really nice setting with you guessed it, a cycling theme - their flat whites and lattes really hit the spot and were cheaper than city centre prices! Really friendly staff, great tunes and an ambience making it perfect for any time of the day - I look forward to going back to try their food. *they also do evening supper clubs with the excellent Nasi Lemak and whiskey tastings so keep an eye on them for more details.

I needed to nip into stockport today to buy my husband a food processor (always marry a man that…read morecooks!) and thought this would be the perfect excuse to nip into Tandem....whom i'd being meaning to visit for a while. Its slightly hidden away, bit higher up the street from Robinsons and a bit lower down than Richer sounds...so isn't likely to pick up passing trade as easily, but i think its worth the 2 minute walk off the main highstreet. Spotlessly clean and with delightfully lovely staff it was a real pleasure visiting Tandem today. I had red pepper and houmous bagel for just £2 - nicely priced and makes working from a coffee shop more affordable and therefore something i can do more often. Wi-Fi is free and streamed the programme i was watching without any glitches...so another tick for working from there. And a final tick for providing a quiet and pleasant atmosphere. My favourite thing though....they are one of the only coffee shops that have delivered a hot chocolate to absolute perfection. Hot, not too much foam, not too thick, but still absolutely chocolately (and with teeny marshmallows). I am so impressed (as you wouldn't believe how many people seem to get this wrong). when i asked about it she said it takes a little longer than normal to make as they have to melt the limini drops slowly (that's the chocolate) and whisk it, but in my opinion it is well worth the wait. I will definitely definitely be back and look forward to trying their panini's.

What a great place for breakfast! My hotel doesn't have an English breakfast, and I was looking for…read morea good coffee and English breakfast so walked around until we found this place to come in. The real deal Café, super nice staff, great coffee. I only have powdered eggs in my hotel and at least three times a week. I have ventured out to a new place to try a good English breakfast and coffee. Good crowd, clean, great service and mostly a really nice English breakfast. Everything is expensive these days so I know some think this is a bit steep, but 12 pounds is not that much for what you get. Will come back again with pictures, but this really hit the spot and got me going for the day. Highly recommend.!!!!

The cakes are absolutely amazing at this place, it's just a shame the service doesn't live up to…read morethe same standard. I have been there twice now and both times found the waitresses rude and the service slow. When ordering a slice of cake and a pot of tea I would have expected them to be served together, instead I received the cake first with a 5 minutes wait before the tea arrived. I would return because the cakes are so good!

Terrible experience, ordered a chicken sandwich and the chicken smelled off, when I checked it…read morefurther it had some sort of mold/fungus growing on it. When I informed a member of staff they said it was just cotton wool!! Why would a stinking chicken sandwich have cotton wool on it? I know what fungus looks like! Manager/boss "Dave" refused to refund me and called me a "moaning cu*t"! To say I wouldn't eat here if I was starving to death would be an understatement! Stay away, you have been warned!!
