"What: This ultra-friendly brunch, lunch and coffee spot in Manchester’s Northern Quarter is run by an all-girl gang with a passion for baking, eating, drinking and chatting.

The menu changes according to the seasons, but the kinds of things you can expect include breakfast bagels, fresh, colourful salads and a range of cakes and baked goods including a fudgy beetroot brownie."

Best feature: A vibrant events schedule, spanning film screenings to workshops and even Mandarin lessons"
