Review Slattery - Whitefield

Maggie Savidge

Staff very pleasant, polite and helpful. Very small car park, be prepared to find alternative parking. A couple of disabled spaces. You have to book in advance and pay £5 per person deposit. It's quite expensive but the food is very good! Shop on ground floor (a little untidy and selling biscuits with "short sell by date" which actually expired last month! Restaurant is on 1st floor, lift available. The restaurant floor needed sweeping and there were cobwebs on the light fittings. Toilets were clean apart from the taps, filthy where tap meets the wash basin (see pictures) and the taps only trickle. There's a large window where you can watch the kitchen staff at work. Plenty of seating and occasional live piano music.

We came here as my partner is a big chocolate fan, we organized a trip to Manchester around Slattery. We got the tramline from Piccadilly here so we didn't have any issues with parking. It's about a 5 min walk from the station so not far at all. We loved walking around the shop downstairs but we really enjoyed our meal here. We started with a sandwich each and then had desserts, all of which were delicious. The staff were extremely friendly and the atmosphere was great with the piano playing in the background. Definitely worth the visit

The food is 5 stars all day long but there are a couple of issues here; the parking is simply inadequate for the size of the establishment and it is vital to organise your visit and book in advance. "walk in" is possible but you are likely to be waiting a long time. We had a beautiful home made apple pie with custard and potato cakes. The 'small' coffee pot was enormous and very good quality.

Ordered 6 Harry Potter Cupcakes 🧁 for our daughter, Friendly staff, Easy to deal with, Cupcakes were delicious, Light, fluffy and amazing taste, Slatterys are a local business who have a well earned reputation not just locally but across the whole region, Prices can vary but you pay for quality. Negative is the carpark is tiny and a pain but everything else is a massive positive. 5☆ We Highly recommend.

We come here quite often and always have excellent service and gorgeous food. It was nice to see a new face this morning. It was a young man. He welcomed us with a smile and again, contributed to fabulous service and made our experience positive. Thank you to all the staff as always for providing fantasist service with a friendly atmosphere and fabulous food!

I have been twice now for last minute birthday cakes and each time they didn’t disappoint. I called into the shop at 3:07pm on Saturday to see if I could get a last minute cake. They’re cut off is 3pm as they close at 5 and are then shut for two days. The kitchen agreed to help. I was expecting something very basic but was asked what my son was into and they would do something along those lines, with a choice of sponge and colour theme. Within half an hour I had a cake which my son was thrilled with. Even though it wasn’t his birthday until the Monday the cake was still the freshest Iv ever had. I don’t normally write reviews but each time Iv been the customer service has been fantastic and the price really reasonable. Would highly recommend.

Slattery's never ceases to amaze. I visit often and today went to make a cake order as well as buying some of the amazing produce. I was lucky enough to be helped by a lovely assistant called Olivia who was so polite, courteous and attentive to detail. She offered advice answered lots of questions and was really friendly the whole time. Fabulous experience as always.

Omg am in chocolate. Have visited here a few times over the last few years, and each time gets better and better. Staff are really friendly. I would advise to book ahead of time if you’d like to sit in the restaurant area. You can get walk in seating but do have to wait can be up to 60mins. The only bad thing. Is parking is very limited.

If you love chocolate, cake, bread, baking and great gift ideas, you'll love Slatterys. We took afternoon tea there too and it was delicious. Served by very friendly staff. I can recommend the experience as one of my favourite places to go 😊

I finally visited Slattery after wanting to go for 6 years to attempt the famous 'Chocolate Challenge', and it certainly was a challenge. I was defeated, not managing to finish everything, although if I hadn't eaten a pizza 2 hours earlier I may have done it. If I was to reattempt it, I would definitely fast beforehand. All the individual chocolate components were nice, especially the homemade chocolate ice cream, but it was just too much to finish. I was worried the cake would be dry but it wasn't and I really enjoyed it up until the point I ate too much and felt ill! The cake was much bigger than it looked in the photos, but even though it was a huge portion (enough for 2 people to share) £19.99 still seems very expensive for what you get. The only thing that could have been better was the hot chocolate which was just milk in a glass lined with melted chocolate and once vigorously stirred together it didn't taste very chocolately. Also I'm not a fan of whipped cream so I struggled with that, I'd have preferred more ice cream. I wish they did a smaller non-challenge version with smaller portions of everything as it was overall enjoyable. The service was good too, everyone was very friendly and professional. I booked a table online the day before but there was only 2 times available 10am or 3pm, when we got there at 3pm there was lots of tables available so we probably would have got in without a booking at an earlier time.

Always worth a visit! We’ve enjoyed some amazing personalised cakes over the years that are always outstanding, and the choice of goodies on offer in the shop is incredible! The cafe/restaurant is just as enjoyable - they keep some tables back for walk-ins but would advise booking if looking to sit down between 12-3pm. The car park is extremely small for the size of the establishment but that shouldn’t put you off what’s waiting at Slattery’s!

The service here is always spot on, the staff are absolutely lovely. The cheese and onion pie is delicious and my little girl loved her children's afternoon tea on our most recent visit.

The experience of going to Slatterys is fantastic. Also a tip, if you think the chocolate challenge is easy, you are dead wrong

Lorraine O'Brien

I've heard so much about this place that when we accidently came across it we had to try it out. We were able to get a table without a reservation. I expected a menu with lots of deserts and cakes on. But maybe because it was the morning time, we just got a basic breakfast menu. I could have asked, but I had already decided to buy some things in the shop before leaving. So I had the cinnamon toast, which was very disappointing. But for everything else we bought being delicious the review score would have been much lower.

Aimee Spurr

Visited with my family and the restaurant was full, i suggest booking a table. The food was lovely and really well presented. The afternoon teas were great with their sandwiches and cakes. The cheese and onion pie is a great option if you aren’t a big fan of sandwiches. The shop downstairs also had some great chocolates and cakes to buy. The car park outside is not very big and got quite busy and we found we were waiting around for a while for a space, other than this there were no issues. I would definitely return, the whole place was lovely!
