The Allotment Cafe - Menu

Nice breakfast and cappuccino. Place was busy and we were asked if we were happy with a wait which was good customer service.

Not worth your money! Served by the lovely Sarah but overly priced and poor overall service. overheard what i assume was the management talking to their staff like absolute sh*t. overpriced coffee, don’t waste your time.

Just called in on my lunch hour for a quick take out coffee (such great coffee here) but was seduced by the Cinnamon Buns...needless to say the Cinnamon bun didn't make it out of the car! Such a great place, always a warm welcome, my very favourite place to eat in Mossley. View menu

Visited the Allotment Cafe for the first time today and I am so glad I did. I had one of the specials the ‘brunch burger’ which was delicious as was the coffee. All of the ingredients were quality and fresh. The atmosphere inside the cafe is lovely this place is a real hidden gem. We will definitely return!

I like everything about this cafe and the food is excellent. As a dog lover I don’t even mind canines everywhere. I’ve been several times and my issue is the service can be hit and miss and sometimes it just doesn’t make sense. For example, the special last weekend was a ‘brunch burger’ which came with cheese, bacon and an egg. I asked for it without the egg to be told ‘we can’t make amendments to the specials’. I didn’t want an ‘amendment’ I just didn’t want the egg surely that is a/possible b/saves them the cost of an egg. It’s simply made no sense unless it was a ready made ‘ping and ding’ special. I’ve worked in hospitality for years and this was just illogical. Needless to say I gave up...

I feel like the main reason this place does well is more because it 's basically the only coffee shop/brunch place in Mossley. Don 't get me wrong, the food isn 't bad, by any means at all but it 's really, really pricey for what it is, and if you want anything adjusting even slightly it just isn 't going to happen. Swapping an egg for an extra sausage or even a tomato at this place is completely out of the question 'we don 't make swaps ' is what you will be told. There 's also no syrups for the coffees, so you can have your latte, but not with your fancy syrup (but you 'll pay the same price if not more, actually... Interesting/rather shocking fact: My mum, little boy, niece and I often go... View menu

I’ve visited this place on 5 occasions now. Each time I am hopeful, as it always seems busy, suggesting that the business is doing something right. However, each time I have visited, I leave feeling completely underwhelmed. I’ll start with the positives of the place: *Location-if you’re walking along the canal or visiting Woodend Mill, this is a conveniently located cafe. *Ambience-nice decor, lighting and layout of tables, creating a cosy, chilled out ambience. Beyond the above, I really struggle to understand why this place is so popular. The food and cakes are nice enough, but nothing special. The prices are pretty high too, which is fine if you’re getting something seriously tasty, but I...

Do not bother asking to swap or change anything on the menu. Unbelievably bad customer service. I have visited a few times and had no issues previously so recommended the cafe to my brother and his partner for us to visit together. They always order eggs Benedict anywhere they go for brunch, so before we travelled 30 minutes to get there we checked the website menu, which had eggs Benedict on. We sat outside as it was a nice day, unfortunately we were then presented with a different menu, with no eggs Benedict on. The waitress then pointed out that most of the items on the menu were not available. They did however have eggs royale on the menu and available (which is the same but has salmon o...

Drove 30 minutes to visit today as we had heard good things and the menu online looked good. On arrival the waitress listed around 5 dishes that was not available on the menu (this is a lot considering it’s not a huge menu). Luckily she didn’t say eggs Benedict was unavailable as this is what I travelled for, however this was not on the menu given to us, but eggs royale was, I don’t eat fish so I politely asked to swap the salmon for bacon (as other dishes had bacon on), I got a blunt ‘No’, which was very confusing so we questioned it and she said due to ‘ratios’ of food in the kitchen (considering they didn’t have half of the menu, out of good will they should have honoured the change to ke...
