I was recommended by a local about this place and I was truly grateful. It’s a small cozy place with a decent coffee and amazing atmosphere. I found a special edition of the book I was looking for and I was pleased. The staff are very friendly and helpful. If you have time in Manchester like I did, weather you are passing by or have some time there and you love books please visit this place.

Beautiful place, very good for meet-ups and book dates. The cafe has a nice selection of drinks, as well as super friendly and polite staff. The book selection is super impressive for a mini-bookstore! However, I wouldn’t say it’s designed for quiet reading, the volume gets rather loud, and people stand over you when browsing. Would highly recommend as a place to buy and talk about books, but for reading them? I’d recommend the library.

As a bibliophile, it’s a must visit place in Manchester. Very cosy vibe, a small collection of books with autographed shelf too, areas to rest and to socialize, a cafe to enjoy with a pay it forward area, very friendly staff and just the most pleasant vibe. I shall visit again and again, what a lovely experience.

Stunning little bookshop, not only for range but also the lovely stuff and brilliant atmosphere.

Love this place. It’s a bookshop but with a lovely cafe. The coffee is fantastic and I am fussy about coffee. There’s a range of sandwiches to choose from too. I quite often go to the Spanish consulate, so always make a visit to the HBF when I’m around the area. Beautiful building. The back is particularly lovely with its wood panelling. Well worth a visit if you’re just into architecture.
