The same room, twice a day
At ten in the morning this is a cafe. Coffee, breakfast, a table you can sit at on your own with a laptop open and nobody hurrying you along. Weekends start half an hour earlier, at 9:30, and brunch runs on into the afternoon.
Then the light goes and the bar takes over. Eleven on Wednesday and Thursday, midnight on Friday and Saturday, with live performances and a happy hour somewhere in the middle of it. Sunday is the early one: last orders at seven.
Coffee, beer, and the list in between
The coffee gets mentioned first and the beer selection right after, with the tea list not far behind. Past those: wine, cocktails, spirits, and happy hour prices at the hour that suits them.
Food arrives as small plates and quick bites — breakfast, brunch, lunch and dessert, brought to the table. Vegan and vegetarian options run through all of it, and lighter things if that is the sort of day you are having.

Asked often enough
Can I sit here with a laptop?
Yes, and plenty do. Breakfast and lunch both run, eating alone is normal here rather than awkward, and the table is yours while you want it.
Is there live music?
Live performances are part of the place. The late nights are Friday and Saturday, which is when the room stays open the longest.
Can the dog come in?
Dogs are welcome inside and outside. No tying anyone to a chair on the pavement while you finish your coffee.
Do you take bookings?
Reservations are accepted — call 0161 820 7726. Turning up works too, and there are high chairs if you are arriving with small people.
Anything for vegans?
Vegan and vegetarian options both, along with healthier plates, small plates and dessert. Takeaway and delivery if you would rather be at home.
