Happen to stumble upon this lovely establishment during a visit to Manchester. The breakfast was well presented and tasty. A little on the pricey side as it was 14 for an English breakfast. I certainly would visit again as there was a nice calm atmosphere around the place and the staff were very friendly.

It’s an amazing place for some healthy and refreshing breakfast ! If you’re in doubt for what to try , you simply can’t go wrong with the Buddha bowl. The staff are extremely friendly as well , helping you out with the right options if you’re a confused soul like me. All In all a well reasonable place to just pop in and have a good breakfast if you’re around Albert square!!

Found iced coffee and loved it. I’ve had a hard time finding iced coffee in Manchester so I was really happy to find one here. If I weren’t in a hurry, I would have probably hung around in this place to read a book or read a little.

Been to both Ditto Coffee locations in Manchester. The one on Oxford road is cosier but this has tasteful decor, the coffee is still made with care and attention and the food menu looks great too.

The food was SO good! I got the vegan English breakfast, and my mum got the vegan Buddha bowl (but they didn’t have chickpeas). Generous portion and the quality of the food was so good! Also got an oat milk vanilla matcha which was lovely, but at the bottom the matcha was bitty and clumpy so i don’t think it was fully whisked.

These five stars are for the food. The service was lacklustre at best and the prices are a little shocking. E.g. 4 for some slices of avocado on the side.
