Well they do say every day's a school day…read more We learned something we didn't know here; we both simultaneously thought that the milk in our coffees had turned (flat white & cappuccino £3 each) but the manager advises it's the complex quality of the exceptional coffee used, so next time it'll be espressos as milk doesn't add sweetness here and I avoid sugar. The manager offered to make fresh coffees and kindly explained about the quality of their coffee, supplied by Dark Woods Coffee and suggested this coffee ain't Costa - I do agree. My new coffee tasted identical to the original but my wife thought hers less 'sour'. Dark Woods provide the coffee and hand roast their beans on a 1950's Probat drum roaster. They are top notch on the environmental and social impact and certified B Corp - 5 green stars here. When tasting think terroir, varietals and process. I had the chestnut & wild mushrooms with garlic & herbs on organic sourdough supplied by an artisan maker. This dish was well balanced, delicious and a decent portion. My wife had the salmon bagel with cream cheese and scallions. She declared it delicious too (salmon delicately smoked by the Manchester Smoke House and bagel baked perfectly by the Bread Factory, Manchester). The sparkling water came well chilled and in a recyclable bottle. We were seated out back at a wobbly table that only required me putting my shoe on the base, the service was attentive, we were suitably distanced from other diners and they genuinely cared that we thought the milk in coffees was off. The place was spic & span clean and with their focus and transparency on quality organic food, preserving the environment (remember folks the earth is our only home) and relying on artisans for produce it's 5 green stars for them too. Really worth supporting.

There's really nothing to fault. Over 3 floors, you HAVE to sit down (so I advise yo get there early).

I've had some great coffees around Manchester, but rarely this good from a coffee cart or pop-up…read morestall. I had a flat white, which is quickly becoming my go to order for assessing the quality of both the coffee used and the skill of the maker. There is something to be said for small boutique sized flat white which you receive from independent coffee vendors. Passion Fruit's flat white was nigh on exceptional and certainly the best I've had from a coffee stall. When done correctly this is one of the few coffees I don't add sugar to, I'm not sure of the technicalities of how this works but I believe it has to do with the smoothness of the microfoam (a slightly snobbish term for the foamed milk which is more than just warm but has less air pushed into it than a cappuccino). An extremely welcome addition to the Altrincham Market especially if you don't want to go into the food hall and sit down but would rather grab a coffee to go and have a wander around the market. I'm not sure if they intend on being a regular fixture of the market or whether they will be appearing around Manchester. But if you see Passion Fruit Coffee around I do recommend grabbing a flat white and a nice big cookie.

It was incredibly busy inside the MH when we arrived, so after quickly grabbing a table we opted for a flat white and a latte from MH Coffee. The coffee I had was great and lovely presented.

Highlight of my 50 mile round trip :) Market House Coffee is small but perfectly formed. Set inside the brilliant Altrincham Market house - which can get very busy so don't be surprised if you have a hard time finding a seat. They serve excellent coffee from Atkinsons coffee roasters in Lancaster. There is a also a good range of teas as well as snacks to accompany your brew. My usual post ride order is a double espresso, perfect after an early morning Sunday blast.

I had taken a walk around Altrincham market and I wondered just how it is that the fishmonger can…read moreget away with charging the same price for fish as Marks & Spencer. Then I went into the covered part where the food places are located and I didn't really fancy paying £2.60 for a regular latte, so I did some more pottering around the town. I was really enjoying the warm sunshine. It's been a month or so since I was last in town and I noticed that the excavation work on the Main Street was still ongoing and thought to myself that it's taking over a year, what are they actually doing? As I mused, a waft of coffee smell hit my nose from the close by Cafe Nero so there was nothing else for it. They do a darn good espresso con panna here so I had a double at £1.90. The espresso was really sophisticated, it was dark in colour with a nice layer of crema on top (a few mls thick, and completely covering the espresso). The crema comes from the release of carbon dioxide when the espresso is extracted under pressure. The taste here was rich, but not overly so; high levels of richness are characteristic of ristretto shots and it was also bitter, as it should be but not too bitter; high levels of bitterness are characteristic of espresso long shots. If you get a coffee tasting watery, this is usually a characteristic of under-extraction so bring it back. The service was quick and ace friendly. I took my coffee and decided to sit outside in the sun. This was a mistake on my part as I am not a smoker. Over about ten minutes three of those customers who were enjoying the smoke - free atmosphere inside the cafe, popped outside to spoil my atmosphere by smoking and after a quick fag each went back inside. As if this wasn't enough each, without so much as a by your leave, used the ashtray on the table where I was sitting, right under my nose, as if I wasn't there.
