Last Sunday me and the hubby went to Sugar Junction for afternoon tea. It had been recommended to me a few days earlier and I managed to book a table via Twitter on the Saturday night. I am so glad that we did as it was very busy. The atmosphere there is great and the afternoon tea was excellent. Very... More

After my mum had mentioned this place so many times, and after four attempts of trying to get in whenever I am visiting Manchester, I finally managed to get a table recently as they were closed most of the day due to a power failure (We arrived just as they were opening - Lucky!) Service was very fast and efficient,... More

It is a lovely cafe and I can tell that the cakes could be delicious. We had an afternoon tea and in honesty I found it nice. Just nice. There were little cakes and brownies all which I found disappointingly dry. I found myself looking enviously at the bigger cakes on the counter which look delicious. The tea was lovely... More

Visited with a friend for brunch. Had been to SJ before and was impressed by the afternoon tea so thought would try the breakfast menu. Ordered the eggs royale - poached eggs with smoked salmon on muffin. It was really nicely presented (I love the vintage crockery) but the poached eggs were cold-ish. I had a cup of coffee which...

I visited Sugar Junction on a cold, rainy Saturday afternoon in May for my birthday. This was booked by my friends as a surprise interlude to our shopping trip. The atmosphere and service were both excellent, although I have to say I was very glad we had booked as it was very busy. The afternoon tea came on a lovely... More

This place is just wonderful. The cakes are always yummy, home-made and the savory food is really nice too. I love their sandwiches and mac & cheese, yum! They are always friendly and although the tea room is tiny they do their best to seat you. I only have one real issue and that's that they don't take bookings for... More

I love this little gem of a tearoom and so does my mother, boyfriend and the many friends I have bought here! Perfectly at home in the alternative Northern Quarter, this wonderful retro tearoom is the perfect antidote to souless coffeee chains and the grey Manchester rain. Offering up great coffee and a selection of teas in beautiful vintage china,... More

I've been to sugar junction many times but my visit this weekend was my first in about 2 months, and I found that disappointing changes had been made to the establishment. It was great that there was air con, but sitting directly in front of the air con was unpleasant. I previously loved the wide range of teas available and... More

I love Sugar Junction, it's my favorite place for a bite to eat while in Manchester. The staff are so friendly and helpful, The tea rooms are decorated lovely. The food and drink is gorgeous. I have been about 5 times and I have never had a bad meal. Well worth a visit!
