Heaton Moor has a bustling cafe culture that easily rivals the likes of Chorlton and Didsbury, and for me is a real hidden gem of Manchester. You don’t get the trendy (dare I say pretentious) day tourist types around, and the great selection of cafes, delis, bars and shops is right up there with anything in Manchester. One of my favourites has to be The Orangery. By day they do a great selection of coffee (pictured here), fresh fruit smoothies and bistro food, and by night their cocktail and wine list is one of the best around. They have a lovely covered terrace out front and a cute little beer garden at the back. It has a nice, relaxed atmosphere and lately has become my favourite place to wind down with a good book and a cuppa.
I would love to shout from the rooftops about how great Heaton Moor is, but then it wouldn’t be my little secret, would it?
