"Home Sweet Home is doing half-price pancakes today, to celebrate what is 'basically their Christmas'.

You can then add banana, Nutella and salted caramel; or fresh berries, compote and frosting."

Located in the northern quarter, this reasonably priced café is extremely popular with students and digital nomads looking for somewhere to knuckle down for a few hours.

The minimal design, open brickwork, old school graffitied tables and atmospheric lighting really do make you feel as though you are hiding from the cold somewhere in downtown Reykjavik. These guys know how to make the perfect coffee, and are accommodating if you require something specific – just ask."

"TAKK, 6 Tariff Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 2FF - Visit now.

"Deansgate’s Barton Arcade plays host to Pot Kettle Black – a glass fronted coffee haven that has Mancunians flocking from all over the city. I’m yet to see PKB empty, which is testament to their consistently high standards and some of the best coffee in the City. Also a sanctuary for freelancers I’m not the first to have spent an entire day in PKB, keeping fuelled by their beverages and snacks and I’m positive that I won’t be the last."

"A boutique-styled café tucked in the Barton arcade has earned the position of one of the best Manchester City Centre coffee shops. It is situated in a beautiful Victorian building in the famous Barton Arcade, and something you may not know, the popular Manchester coffee shop is owned by Rugby League’s Jon Wilkin and Mark Flanagan. You can get all types of coffee here from standard espresso, Piccolo, Flat While, Latte and Cappuccino."

"Proudly championing Antipodean coffee culture with a Northern accent, Pot Kettle Black is serving up some of the finest freshly-brewed cups of caffeine from its Barton Arcade takeout hatch in the heart of the city centre, so it couldn’t be easier to grab as you go. Barton Arcade, Deansgate, Manchester, M3 2BW. You can find more information via the PKB website here."

"What: Just up the road from Sugar Junction, this trendy cafe is known for its great coffee and fair pricing. It serves up a mean grilled cheese sarnie on sourdough alongside other lunch plates such as soup and sandwiches, and a selection of all-day breakfast offerings. The vibe is industrial chic, but chatty staff make it feel as cosy as can be."

"North Tea Power was one of the first craft coffee bars in the Northern Quarter, consistently serving up a high quality range of coffees, teas and snacks. They use London based Square Mile beans, and a rotation of guest beans if you want to get fancy with your brews. From lattes to a V60s, they’ve got it covered."

"A cool, all-day hangout, North Tea Power worships at the altar of breakfast food. The independent coffee shops serves up classics until the early evening; tuck into the likes of bacon sarnies, eggs on toast and porridge, all washed down with a long list of herbal teas."

"Another Northern Quarter brunch and coffee destination, Ezra & Gill is a smart neighbourhood hangout with a simple yet excellent food menu. Its brunch is served all day and you can pick from posh beans on toast topped with parmesan, a classic sausage sandwich, or sweeter things like organic oats porridge or brioche French toast. No matter what your taste, Ezra & Gil has something for everyone."

"Beloved neighbourhood hangout Ezra & Gil has provided Manchester with an evolutionary concept in urban coffee and cafe culture since opening doors 2015, and is still serving freshly-brewed cups to go in the heart of the Northern Quarter this weekend. 20 Hilton Street, Manchester, M1 1FR.

"If yes, then enjoy a lunch or dinner with your friends or family in Chaobaby which is one of the best Thai buffets. It offers exceptional dining service and delicious dishes. Chefs of Chaobaby collect the fresh ingredients to prepare the delicious dishes following the authentic style of cooking."

"Our first dinner in Manchester was spent at Thaikhun and we had such a great time. Thaikhun is a restaurant chain that specializes in Thai street food and their interior made me feel like I was back in Asia. Everything we ordered tasted so good, and I really recommend the grilled chicken satay and the Panang Curry."

"Thaikhun has to be on the list of the best Asian restaurants in Manchester. Its great food and atmosphere is perfect for any occasion. The restaurant also hosts cooking classes where you can learn how to cook the best Thai food using fresh ingredients."

"The Manchester Doughnut Company was started by local chef Ed Beech seeking to fill a gap in the market for more eclectic donut flavours. Handmade in small batches, Ed creates flavour combinations such as white chocolate and pumpkin donuts, butterscotch and bourbon donuts and donuts topped with Crunchy Nut Cereals!. The secret to these donuts is the slow proving process used to make the dough (although covering them in butterscotch once they’ve been fried can’t hurt either eh?) You can find these beauties at The King’s Arms, and at The Makers Market in Spinningfields and Didsbury every month."

"Bright, friendly, and with stacks upon stacks of homemade doughnuts: there aren’t many places we’d rather spend an afternoon than Siop Shop. If you can drag your gaze away from the perfectly plump sweet treats – the dreamy flavours include millionaire shortbread and chai topped with pecan nuts – then there’s a stonking coffee selection to explore, too."

"Dessert fans visiting Manchester shouldn’t have without trying the best doughnuts in town. Mine was filled with blackcurrant cheesecake (minus the base) and was probably the best £2 I’ve ever spent. Where: SiOP SHOP cafe on Tibb Street and at the Makers Market held in the Northern Quater on the second Sunday of each month."
