Was cycling around the area when we decided to treat ourselves with hot drinks. We ordered a Latte (£2.75) and a Hot Chocolate (£2.75). Friendly staff. Very busy and we managed to find some seats outside. Lovely hot drinks and the price is reasonable.

One of the nicest bars in Manchester, if not the nicest. It is always a pleasure to see that places like this were not completely destroyed by the instability of the recent years. The narrow pathway from the bar to the main room is one of the coziest and sweetest places I’ve seen. Overall, every inch of café blah seems to be incredibly sincere - in comparison to the more conventional bars closer to the centre of Manchester, which all seem to be built to be easily renewable due to the heavy traffic of people, this place seems to hold on to things that were added to it, be it intentionally or not.

Amazing. Cheap prices and good food and coffe. People and employees are extremely friendly, there’s always a great vibe in there and easy to chat to people. So much too it, vintage store, great art, book swap and board games which I love to play. It does so much yet doesn’t feel forced. Best cafe I’ve been too in Manchester

Gorgeous space with the best staff. One of the few truly independent places like it in Manchester, who put the time and care into putting on events geared towards community rather than just trying to flog as much booze as possible. The kind of place where you get not one but TWO little biscuits with your coffee!

Think it might want to consider changing its name to Cafe Blag or Cafe Blasé as it’s seemingly never open even on its own (opening hours) terms. It’s only been open once out of half a dozen attempts to visit. Shame as it’s a good concept and ideal for the area and fantastic location in which it sits, as well as serving good coffee; I just wish they would invest more time in getting the place buzzing and a real hub of the community.

Cafe blah is the best bar in Manchester. Tess and Adam are two of the loveliest people I’ve ever met. They recently hosted my birthday there and went above and beyond with literally everything. Can’t thank them enough. Would rate a million stars if I could.

One of the most unique Cafés in South Manchester, Adam & Tess built it from the ground up with their love of art, vintage & music. Interior and vibes do well for day time chills and casual evening drinks, all at incredibly affordable prices. Oh and their fully vegetarian menu deserves a solid mention. Lovely people, great chat, awesome place!

Amazing local cafe with a difference. Cafe Blah makes you feel like you're sat in your own living room but with better music and better art to look at. The drinks and food were great, and Adam & Tess (the owners) made everyone feel so welcome and we can't wait to go back!
