Federal is the best brunch spot in Manchester! The food is delicious, and the menu has a variety of options to choose from. The cozy ambiance and friendly staff make it a great place to start your day. Prices are reasonable, making it a top choice for a satisfying brunch experience.
The coffee is great as well.

First of all expect to queue up to this place regardless of the weather so if you're planning on going make sure to grab an umbrella as you'll need it. Also be prepared to see people completely ignoring the line of 10+ people standing and walk up to the door asking for a table just to be told to queue up. But I would say for our occasion we only waited about 10-15 minutes and was promptly seated.
The food, I mean the pictures sell itself the french toast was mine and the berries, the sauce, the toast and the mascarpone cream was absolutely perfect and really worked well together definitely the best french toast I've had. My fiance's eggs benedict with smashed avocado was perfect too, everything on this menu looked amazing and I'm sure everything is equally as nice as eachother.
Having Milo on the menu is also such a unique thing to do and I definitely wasn't expecting to see it so I had to get it, was amazing. This is one of those few places that you see online trending that is actually good and not just fake hype.
We popped in early afternoon for some brunch, it was our first time trying Federal Cafe Bar. We ordered the French toast and the Halloumi & Shrooms with some coffee. The food was lovely, the sauce on the toast was spicy and tangy, it was definitely the highlight of that dish. The french toast was delicious as well, it was the perfect portion for one. They served good coffee too(I had the cappuccino) however we were slightly disappointed that we were unable to sample the batch brew as the machine was broken on the day we dined there.
The atmosphere of the cafe was very nice and cozy, service was great too.
All in all it is a safe brunch option that serves good food and coffee. They serve typical brunch foods with brunch prices. The only thing to look out for is the size of the cafe. It is slightly small so it would not be ideal for large groups of people or those with large luggage bags. Another thing to keep in mind is that the cafe is walk-ins only.
