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.

Defo one of the best spots in Mcr for coffee
Preferred the old location just off St. Ann's but that building seems to have cleared all its tenants out now. The new one's ok though, still does great coffee.

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.

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.
