We ordered the steak sandwich and the avocado eggs benedict on sourdough toast with smoked salmon - both were really delicious and fresh! Drinks were just average (we ordered a batch brew and a cold Milo milk drink); although, my husband tried the flat white at the Oxford Road branch the day before and said it was one of the best flat whites he has had. Knocked off one star as was difficult to access with a pram up the two steps and there was no baby changing facilities. Staff were really lovely and efficient!

Always busy when we have tried to get in today as in no rush we waited. Staff was friendly and good. I saw on the menu a corn fritter which i skimmed over till i asked what someone was eating and it was the fritter. So i had with bacon which was excellent and tasty. My wife had sandwich of hummus sweetcorn and falafel on sourdough which was also very tasty. Coffee was spot on too

Federal Cafe undoubtedly serves one of the most delicious French toasts in town. From the moment you take your first bite, you are greeted with a symphony of flavors that dance on your taste buds. Federal Cafe's French toast is a must-try that will leave you craving for more.

Highly recommend

The food was delicious, stunning to look at as the presentation was curated. The staff really looked after us, was extremely friendly and attentive. My friends all enjoyed the food as well, overall a wonderful experience I recommend as a cute place to have brunch at. We ordered French toasts, Turkish eggs, the special and the salmon eggs. The Turkish eggs were exactly what you’d expect, the sauce was tangy not too spicy and went well with the poached eggs. Overall a wonderful experience

My favourite is the steak sandwich, that comes with aioli garlic on a soft ciabatta. The service is always friendly and I like the vibes inside the cafe, although I would never go on the weekend, the queues are always out of the door. In terms of kid friendliness, probably only a table near the door that is suitable for prams etc.

Worth the Sunday morning queue. 5 of us visited and all enjoyed different breakfast dishes. I went for the Turkish Eggs and a Hazelnut Latte, absolutely delicious. We even ordered the special which was french toast for us all to share after. The queue is long but if you have the time, I definitely recommend waiting.

It's an alright cafe, nice and chill vibe and botanical earthy decor. Lots of ppl line up to get in at breakfast hours and the place doesn't haven't that many seats. Food is just fine but nothing special. I had their smashed avocado toast with smoked salmon. Portions could be bigger. Also tried their Iced Chai Latte, taste good but again, nothing special.

Best brunch in Manchester! Such a cosy little cafe with exceptional coffee and food. I ordered a cappuccino and it’s the best I’ve ever had. The homemade granola was absolutely delicious too. Service was incredible. Well worth a visit.

100/10 service level! Don’t usually post review, but service level is on another level. Gave us hot chocolate while we were queuing outside and gave cookie on the house when I’m done with my meal. Great food too, but service is truly excellent.
