Great Find!

Really lovely place to eat. Very busy…we had to wait 30 mins for our table…but it was definitely worth it. A few vegan choices, I had the full breakfast and my cousin had the American pancakes and they were both yummy. Great atmosphere too, and Halle our server was lovely.

Pros: Lovely food, Great atmosphere , Fantastic staff

How Breakfast Should Be Done

Almost perennially busy, I spotted a rare opportunity to dive in here before the morning rush and was well rewarded for my foresight.
A solid, robust coffee kicked things off nicely, and it only go better from there. The vegan breakfast, with a side of toast and couple of rostis for good measure, absolutely hit the spot. All the items were well-cooked, a decent temperature, and (mostly importantly) delicious. I particularly enjoyed the cheesy tofu, an inspired addition, and the black pudding that was texturally fantastic and the right kind of moist. I somehow resisted ordering the pancakes and the waffles that I spied on the menu, but I thought I’d save them for my next visit.

Hangover brekky central

Proper dirty fry up hangover brekky vibes. We had the vegan royale which was decent. They also had two sweet brunch items - pancakes and waffles which looked pretty nice. Was definitely a popular choice as the wait times were around 20/30mins and they do not take bookings. Staff were friendly and was good vibes

Fantastic full English

This is my fave place for a proper breakfast! It's always a hard choice, but usually go for a Vegan Royale (a vegan full English) with scrambled tofu with facon, vegan black pudding, sausages, hash browns, mushrooms, peppers, beans and toast for £12. Generous portion and very tasty.

Other vegan options are pancakes (with scrambled tofu and fake bacon and maple syrup), vegan waffles with fruit. Oat milk for tea and coffee too.

Staff are friendly and helpful.

There's usually a queue out of the door on a weekend, so get there before 10am (or queue and get your name on the list).

Recommend especially when dining with non-vegans. Coffee is good too.

Pros: Vegan options , Value for money , Friendly, helpful staff

Good breakfast choice

Cute restaurant with a greasy spoon vibe but good interior decor. Staff are friendly and happy to help. The food itself is solid. I had the vegan breakfast and really enjoyed it - the scrambled tofu was the highlight for me! The sausages are the type with a mushy interior, so the texture was largely a bit same-y, but tasty and satisfying.

Pros: Tasty food, Good portion size, Friendly and helpful staff

Cons: Coffee wasn't great

Really good breakfast

The breakfast here was really tasty. The scrambled tofu was delish and had little bacon pieces in. You got a huge stack of toast too. The sausages are kind of vegetable/potato sausages but still tasty . The coffee wasn't amazing though tbh!

Best breakfast in Manchester

We went for the Vegan Royale and shared a plate of waffles. The food was out of this world, but I especially liked the bacon bit infused tofu scramble. The waffles are the best I’ve had in a long time and after a night on the town I appreciated the fruit that accompanied it. The coffee is also fantastic and the staff are lovely. We’ll definitely be back on our next visit to Manchester.

Pros: Fantastic vegan options, Accessible

Decent Value

We stopped here for breakfast as sadly we couldn't find a fully vegan place for Sunday breakfast in the city.

The breakfast was a good size for the price and the sausages were really good. I'm not a huge fan of peppers with a breakfast though and it was a shame that you couldn't have the tofu scramble without the vegan cheese.

We'd eat there again if we're in the city and couldn't find a vegan place but we were put off by a cartoon on the wall that they'd had custom made which labelled vegan food as vegan poop!!

So if you're a vegan cafe in the area please open on Sunday mornings so we can give you our money next time instead!

Good vegan breakfast

Delicious full English vegan breakfast. It would be great if they also offered a small version of the breakfast as the one they have is a lot. Other vegan options available as well. Cashless business.

Pros: Delicious vegan breakfast

Cons: Cashless, No small options available

Really good breakfast

Very nice vegan options, I had the Vegan Belgian Waffles and my partner had the Plant-based Manc-Muffin. They were both delicious, but we should've ordered a side with the muffin as it wasn't enough on it's own. We booked for 8 people and service was very fast and all staff were friendly and inviting depsite it being busy at the time (Sunday midday). I wouldn't hesitate to return here.

Pros: Very reasonable prices

Cons: Walk-ins only under 6 people

Nice breakfast

Visited the Koffee Pot a few times and always really appreciative that they have gluten-free options! The VE/GF breakfast is tasty and the filter coffee is really good. Quite a few other vegan options available, in addition to plant milks and vegan spread available for toast, upon request.

Three stars instead of four because I felt dodgy after my last visit, which is usually a sign of gluten cross-contamination. Wouldn’t recommend if you’re allergic to gluten.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, ‘GF’ options, Lovely staff

Cons: Potential risk of allergen cross-contamination

Good range of choices

I’ve only been once and would happily go back. A greasy spoon vibe (which I love) and happy for you to mess about to get the perfect breakfast for you.

Good vegan breakfast

We had a good vegan breakfast at Koffee Pot, but room for improvement. There is a good vegan range, and the pancakes were very good.. and whilst the vegan breakfast was good, it was a little hodge-podge. Would return but could stick with the pancakes!

Pros: Good range of vegan options , Well priced , Great pancakes

Cons: Vegan breakfast could be better

The big beige breakast

This was a nice cafe with a decent vegan selection on the menu. Tasty, but very beige! A bit of green on the side would have been lovely.

Pros: A number of vegan options, Large portions

Cons: Beige, Sticky tables

Food is ok but was served cold

I ordered the pancake stack with vegan bacon and maple syrup. The bacon was great - but the whole meal was cold. If it was all warm/hot would have been so much better!!

Pros: Multiple vegan options

Cons: Food was cold we served

Does what it does well

Sometimes Koffee Pot hits the right spot. It is a diner style cooked breakfast place so don't go expecting anything fancy. Koffee Pot feels more down to earth than most of the other breakfast places nearby and I like that.

The food isn't anything exceptional, it's a solid booked breakfast. Their vegan options are better than many places- black pudding, bacon, roast butternut squash. The price reasonable, £9 for a full cooked breakfast including tea.

very bad experience.

I came to The Koffee Pot today for brunch. Ordered a mocha and BALT bagel and my partner a hot chocolate and walnut pancakes.

When it comes to my food it was absolutely terrible. The bagel was so stale that it was impossible to chew or cut, avocado was brown and the coffee was burned.

My partners hot chocolate was made out of burnt milk as well (we've heard how it was frothed and it hurt our ears) and it even got the skin on top so it clearly wasn't 65 degrees lol. The pancakes were quite dry as well and didn't have much flavour.

They offered a replacement after we complained about the bagel and when I asked for the pizza fries instead I just got a small plate of regular fries which were also dry and some of them undercooked.

Overall we had a very bad experience and would definitely not recommend.

it's alright...

Breakfast is ok, but this place is gererally really busy and you'll have to wait a while to get a seat. It's dog (and cat) friendly, so that's good. The sausages are those really salty frozen Glamorgan sausages, so everything on the plate has the same texture and there's not much flavour. There are much better vegan breakfasts in NQ.

Pros: dog friendly, full breakfast

Cons: pricey, slow service, Glamorgan sausages
