    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.

    Slightly dissapointed as i thought Rapha did more cycling clothes in natural fibers. Only spotted one merino baselayer and the brevet jerseys which were 30% wool. Nothing on the ladies racks bigger than a medium made me feel like i was in the wrong place. I should point out im a 12 which fits a rapha L, so it would be good to see they have a complete rsnge as they do on the mens side

    Not open despite nothing mentioned on their website or google. Just an A4 piece of paper in the window saying closed until further notice with absolutely no explanation. I don't live in Manchester anymore so I used the opportunity to come to the shop while visiting family. I had to come out of my way somewhat and won't get another chance now for while, poor.

    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.

    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.

  • 5/5 Sterling D. 5 years ago on Google • 37 reviews
    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.

    Very high quality establishment with excellent coffee.

  • 5/5 Andrej S. 2 years ago on Google
    It’s Rapha clubhouse, so everything is top-notch by default. Apparently, I was wearing a wrong size bibs, thank you Bobby for strong recommendation to try to size down. Comfiest bibs I ever have!

  • 4/5 Bashir S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very helpful staff. Good location in the city centre. Down side is they don’t always have the size in stock you’re looking for.

  • 5/5 S L. 2 years ago on Google
    Some special latte art here! Always good for a fresh sarnie as well.

👍👍 A very nice place. In fact it was outstanding. The food was delicious perfectly cooked. Taking my partner to a steak house for her birthday when she is a vegetarian still offered her a fantastic choice. The staff was brilliant even to the point of hearing me say happy birthday to my beautiful fiance...
