Waiting patiently whilst your partner shops isn't always the most enjoyable experience but the staff were sociable & knowledgeable too when I enquiried about the brand and it's history. I think next time I'll indulge in a coffee or glass of wine while i wait! Great shop
Amazing place to shop eat watch the tours and also get your bike Fixed or even a quick check up while you get a Coffee. The staff are friendly and are always happy to help with the clothing and it when your in the Cafe.
If you haven't been yet get yourself down there even if you don't ride a bike!!
In December we went to buy some Christmas presents for my husband and friends. We were fortunate enough to win one of the advent raffle prizes. So that was a bonus. We had some food as well. It’s a limited menu. Not my preferred food to be honest but my husband liked it. We’ve been back again today(April) and my husband purchased some cycling bib shorts and socks. The cafe area is a welcome respite from the busy streets in Manchester and is good for coffee and cake.

Well positioned shop, with ample space for the full Rapha range. Usually have good stock of most items and staff are very helpful and friendly.
The cafe is also a gem, serving great coffee and a selection of cakes, sandwiches etc. Little pricey, but it is rapha after all!
There is usually some cycling on the big screens, and a nice atmosphere. The window bar seats are a great place to people watch over King Street.
Excellent hidden away cafe. Good range of Rapha cycle clothing and accessories too
Great staff - very knowledgeable on products and the coffee was ace!
Great little cafe away from the bustle of Manchester. Rapha use Allpress coffee and absolutely nail it. Definitely recommend sitting up by the window to people watch the crowds below. A must stop if you're big on cycling and coffee.
Always lovely. Great store. Lots of facilities
One of my favourite places to go.
Great coffee and very friendly staff. 👌
Great store, staff always able to help with any questions you may have and such a lovely cafe there
Visited here twice now and both times I have been far from disappointed as a result of the excellent service, both from the cafe staff and shop staff. Cafe staff are friendly and make some of the best coffees and cakes in Manchester, on a particularly rainy day I was given a free upgrade to a large cappuccino which was much appreciated.
The shop area, though a bit small, always has what I've been looking for on each visit, and the staff are very knowledgeable in their product advice. They won't try to flog you the most expensive bits of kit (relative to Rapha's own pricing), but they will provide you with kit that will suit your needs.
I'm based in Stoke but I'm more than happy to travel the distance to get a 5 star customer service to get the perfect kit.
Great place with great food, fantastic coffee, free WiFi, knowledgeable staff and highly desirable Rapha cycling gear.
