Popped across this one by chance whilst out walking with the missus. Since neither of us had really explored Stockport before it turned out to be quite the hidden gem. Very good food and fairly reasonably priced. The decor is very austere, however, to the point of Spartan, but still very much recommend. One of those hard to get to but very happy to discover establishments
Fantastic food, brilliant service with really friendly staff. The lighting is a bit bright, but still a good atmosphere.
Jan 2019 - NB: this cafe has changed either late 2018 or early 2019. New owners(?) New setup etc. So many earlier reviews DON'T APPLY TO THE CURRENT SETUP. It's a pity it's still called Blackshaws (or just 'B'?), because the place is benefitting from earlier reviews that no longer apply. Anyhow, my review: Nice place: the view of the market-place from there is nice and characterful, and the lady who served me had a very pleasant and helpful demeanour. But their so-called "large" latte is ridiculously stingy (tiny). I'm talking about half the size of a typical small coffee from the big coffee-shop chains, and yet it cost 2.75. Pointlessly stingy and overpriced, and okay tasting (but nothing special). I'M SICK OF THESE COFFEE SHOPS / CAFES THAT THINK IT'S OKAY TO CHARGE NEARLY 3 FOR A TINY CUP OF MILDLY FLAVOURED MILK! As I joked to the girl who brought me my coffee, "What's this, a tiny coffee to match the tiny tables in the place?" (Her reply - something along the lines of "It's like Miniature World" - suggests I wasn't the first to make such a comment.) Indeed, the tables in there are, weirdly, really small too: I couldn't comfortably get both my legs under the table at once without them pressing on the table legs. And yet it's not like they are short on space. Maybe this is one of the reasons the place felt to me as though they haven't finished furnishing it yet... Summary: aesthetically a nice setting, but small tables and very small, overpriced coffee. I won't be going back.
Tasty food, good service, relaxed atmosphere
Nice open space with a lot of light good food and good people.
