Manchester needs more tiny coffee/cake shops like these. Even more importantly we need to change…read moretiny consumer habits so that this can become a reality. Big chain coffee shops have been driving small independants out of business over the last few decades. This particular one has more personality and je ne sais quoi factor than majority of the corporate chains combined. A very small cafe nestled in the picturesque village of Littleborough just outside Manchester, I was location hunting for my short film when I came across this little beaut. Albeit I didn't stick around and was on a Latte pick up n go mission. I had enough time to soak up the homely chilled out atmosphere. Highly recommend a sunday walk along Hollingworth lake and a coffee/cake scenario at Rebecca's cakes. You'll thank me later.

My boyfriend took me here to enjoy the nature which was really lovely. As a suprise he had booked a table for 4pm. Unfortunately due to covid you cannot be seated inside the building. At the time it was sunny so I was fine to sit outside, peering longingly through the windows at the crystal chandeliers. The menu was basic containing mostly sandwiches, cakes and quiches. We ended up going for the afternoon tea which was £16 per person along with a milkshake. It was going quite nicely until a couple with their kid sat close by , which it was making a racket and spilled tea all over the table...and it started to get really cold... the tea arrived but with no milk.. by the time we got this the tea was stone cold. Oh and my partners coffee was rushed, on top of the plunger of the cafetière lay smooshed coffee beans, so he had a gritty coffee.. The three tiers arrived, I personally think one between us would have been suffice as we couldn't see each other haha and it left little room on the table. The bottom layer contained thin strips of sandwiches with the crusts cut off, an egg, beef & horseradish , smoked salmon & cream cheese, and a ham and cheese one.. oh and a quiche.. it was all really tasty. The 2nd layer had a scone with clotted cream and jam and on the side x2 marshmellows with chocolate sauce. The top layer held a small piece of brownie, a tiramisu and another cake oh and some fruit. Overall it was plesant enough but I found the prices steep for what we actually received . I would probably grab a drink here a very light bite when we can sit indoors again but nothing more. Service was plesant but forgetful, I could hear throughout our time there staff apologising to other customers about certain things..

If you go don't arrive at bang on lunch time because you will not get a table. The quaint little cafe has 2 floors and toilets (upstairs). The staff are very friendly and the prices are also very reasonable. Great any time of year with a few specials in the menu also for the special times. I would recommend the cheese and coleslaw jacket potato with a strawberry milkshake and toffee lumpy bumpy for dessert. The perfect meal for the perfect day out in Hebden Bridge. Also if you just fancy a small lunch or afternoon snack of coffee and cake etc. This place has it covered and with a large menu you will never get bored .

You wouldn't realise it from the entrance, but there is an upstairs seating area - we were about to give up and head away but the staff were friendly and pointed us to some free seats. They also gave recommendations on the different types of bread the food came on. I went for a Mexican chicken panini, Sparky had a BLT on a bagel. Both were freshly prepared and tasty but mine could have been spicier for my liking.

This establishment belongs to the locally based: 'Vine Christian Fellowship'…read more It is a Christian Book & Coffee Shop, which is ran on a volunteer-based arrangement.

There are a good selection of Bibles, books, gifts, posters, cards, CD's, DVD's & Christian Literature. If you cannot find what you require, the staff are more than happy to help & can order goods in to your requirement. The Coffee Shop is a small, cosy seating area. You often have to wait for a seat, as it does get very busy - particularly at lunch-time & on Saturday. (It is closed on Sunday). The menu is small, but all the food is fresh & home-made, either on the premises, or by fellowship members. There is a 'soup of the Day', & you can also, have a selection of sandwiches: hot & cold. They also do home-made sweets - & I feel that these are the best choices on the menu! Particularly with custard & a nice, hot mug of tea. The staff are very helpful & friendly - & make you feel at ease. Toilet facilities are very small & outside, but clean & basic. There is limited parking on the road outside of the shop.
