"Shakedown make some ridiculously good milkshakes – even have one tailor-made for Mancunians; the Manchester Bee Shake with Honeycomb Pieces, Honey Comb Syrup & Whipped Cream. There’s also an Oreo-infused shake packed with cookies and cream, and a tantalising menu chocked full of waffle creations from a classic flavour of fresh strawberries and chocolate sauce. The pick of the bunch is perhaps the Road Block: Which is stuffed with Oreos, Crispy M&Ms, White Kinder Bueno, White Chocolate Drizzle and Nutella Drizzle."

"Located just down the road from our Peel Park campus, this lovely little place combines art with coffee, tea and cake.

Hot drinks are reasonably priced and the decor is stunning."

It is virtually impossible to walk past without being tempted to go inside and enjoy a slice of cake or an afternoon tea."
