Recently shortlisted as Best Coffee Shop at the Manchester Food and Drink Awards, Tea Hive ticks all the boxes for a mid-morning coffee, hearty lunch or indulgent dose of tea and cake.
Both Chorlton and Alexandra Park branches channel the comforting aura of bygone eras with vintage furniture and crockery. Customers include local families tucking into home made beans on toast, doorstop cheddar sandwiches and various takes on eggs; if its value you’re after, The Park menu is little cheaper, with veggie sausage toasties for £3.50.
