Nice place to pop in for a pint or some food. Plenty of seating, large bar. Menus on every table
Been coming this place for years really don't have anything bad to say about it the staff are great and the foods great but recently the place looks quite grubby like the cleaner has just given up on the place the toilets never look clean the floor needs a good hoover but my main issue is the kids high chairs are ALWAYS DIRTY like they NEVER get cleaned I always have to give them a wipe down before putting my child in one.
Brilliant pub, staff are really friendly, it's a very clean pub with two small outdoor areas, food was delicious and large sized portions, I had mixed grill 😋 the meat melted in my mouth, highly recommend this pub is also kid friendly.
Rachel (pub manager) was amazing! Very helpful and friendly. We will definitely be back soon. Food was delicious.
Not the largest pub I've visited out of 389 in the JDW chain.
Nicely decorated, including an impressive fireplace; small rear garden, and a good selection of ales.
I had a Vanilla Mild, pizza with extra chillis and a hot chocolate for around £15.
Pleasant service and polite clientele, creating a welcoming atmosphere.
It's worth a visit if you're in the area or ticking off 'Spoons
Yesterday me n my friends went in there, as we always used to since past one year and we loved this place. But yesterday it was awful experience that we had. Staff was very rude, staff cleared our table before we go home. Half of the foods and drinks were thrown without asking us. When went to ask them staff was very very rude. Manager in there came on my friends face when he asked about it and said if you have problem you don’t need to come back here again. Instead of clearing things it went more n more arguments with staff. Security guard in there pushed us and staff told us to get out. Which was completely against the law. They can only touch people if someone is harming the property or a person. It all happened at one in morning. They gave us reason that it was closed thats why we thrown it however more than 10-15 peoples were still sat on there tables and having drinks. We didn’t expected this to happen. We will never go there again and i won’t recommend anyone to go in there.
Quality cask ale from this regular in the Good Beer Guide - all the usual you get in a Spoons with the added bonus of GroundFloor toilets.

If you're ever in Leigh, make sure to stop by Uncle Ste's Diner for a delightful dining experience. This charming café boasts a clean and inviting atmosphere, complete with newly updated decor that enhances its cozy vibe. The staff, particularly the friendly lady behind the counter with dark hair in a bun and glasses, truly elevates the service here. Whether you’re craving a hearty breakfast or just a cup of tea, you'll find delicious options at great prices.
Fab little place and one of the only ones open on railway road called in for breakfast and got Nutella waffles and large decaf tea. Fab portion sizes and prices can’t get a large brew for under £2 in most places now but you can here. They’ve got an amazing menu with lots to choose from and good veggie options at an affordable price point. Love the interior feels like a proper diner lovely comfy seating with plenty space and very clean. Staff were lovely and couldn’t do more to help. Would deffo be coming back!

1st time visit. heard lots of positive stories.. i’ll add another positive to that. great service great small breakfast comfy seating area.. defo goin back..
Called in today 22nd nov for a small breakfast and tea. The food was delicious. Nice decorated, clean cafe. I have to point out that the lady behind the counter, who took my order, with the dark hair in a bun and glasses, is an absolute credit to the place.
Didn’t expect to come here but due to my barber not opening up on time I decided to have a breakfast here whilst I waited. The lady who served me was very pleasant and helpful and also had two younger lads helping serve and clean up. Food was lovely, one of the best breakfasts I’ve had and too me back to my childhood. Aesthetically really nice looking place inside and well maintained. Would deffo visit again.
Had a job local so thought I'd pop in here before I started. The mega breakfast was excellent with outstanding Bury black pudding. A friendly chap served me, great service. Next time in Leigh I'll return.
Unfortunately, this is one of the worst experiences I've had. The bacon and egg were both overcooked, The sausage was tasteless and the fried bread greasy. In addition to that, it took 1.5 hours to deliver one breakfast and it was luke warm. Not great!
Food is bland and very basic (burger and jacket potato). Food is not served together causing members of a group or couple to eat alone. Hash brown bites are good though.
Sausages bog standard..bacon hard like it was pre cooked, egg hard, not dippy,cold toast, coffee froffy nonsense, i asked for a flat white ,hate to eat here if the place was full , be careful, up your game, people aren't stupid when it comes to spending money

McDonald's, the iconic fast-food chain celebrated for its delicious burgers and crispy fries, continues to be a go-to spot for those seeking affordable meals. The Leigh location stands out with its inviting atmosphere—it's less crowded than many others, allowing for a clean and comfortable dining experience. Whether you're grabbing breakfast on the go or settling in to work on your laptop or study, you’ll find that the service is quick and efficient.
McDonald's has been the epitome of cheap fast food items and this branch of Leigh is no different. Relatively less crowded, clean, and quickly served food gave me a great start to the day. You can pass more time and work on your laptop or study even and no one will bother you. Overall, a pleasant experience and highly recommended.

Food was hot and up to standard. However we were waiting in the drive thru for a longer than usual period of time and weren’t spoken to once by the person handing food over (wearing a white shirt so managerial). Also got home to find that the large cappuccino I’d paid extra for, as it was an upgrade in my meal, was half full. Not what you expect when you’re paying money for food and a service.
I ordered 15 mins ago from drive through. I’m literally the only car here, there’s no one in front of me or in the restaurant. I’m still waiting. Everything is beeping. Genuinely worried the staff might be asleep. Look at the state of the place.
Large fries ? I don't eat at McDonald's often but is it normal for the fries to only be less than half way up the container ? Also the fillet of fish looked like it was placed on the bun by throwing it across a room with it stuck like that due to the cheese and most of the sauce inside the cardboard box... Can't really say I'm lovin it
Stopped here at 2AM after a late night flight. We only made a small order - less than £10. Queued for 20 minutes whilst an order in front was being served. They missed a portion of fries so we had to go back around the drive through and wait another 10 minutes to get these.
When we got home - just a few minutes away, we realised a sauce was missing, the cheeseburger didn't have any pickles and the fries were stone cold.
I wouldn’t bother ordering from here.
I’ve unfortunately ordered from here a few times.
Once they told me to cancel the order as they gave it to the wrong driver and refused to remake it (this still charged me for the order and uber wouldn’t refund it) so I got charged £40 with no food to show for it.
The last time I ordered (about 20 minutes ago) they missed half of the order, no sides, didn’t send anything for one of the meals, no sauces, not even straws for the drinks!
I have no idea who they employ at this restaurant but they can’t even read by the looks of it because how do you miss off 50% of the order and a whole order on another occasion.
I have worked in a McDonald’s before and it was night and day compared to this establishment.
I attended McDonald’s Leigh tonight as I was in the mood for a crispy Coke! There was no ice in my drink! It wasn’t crispy! It was luke warm! This is the third time now where they’ve not put ice in my drink. Need to fix the ice machine and sort it out.
Took forever to get food inside (20mins for a quarter pounder meal and coffee) because of the drive thru and delivery drivers. Think the chips were cooked a couple of times to reheat them.

Last Friday(06-12-24) M&S used a free 1kg Belgian Chocolate Biscuits tin to bait new members to join its Sparks scheme. The promised coupon was issued to my Sparks app instantly however it vanished into thin air while I was on way to a branch to claim for it. M&S singlehandedly retrieved it after having issued it to its member. M&S staff at the Helpline this morning said that the free gift was meant for a chosen few and that it was a system error by sending it to all newly joined members. And, there is NOTHING M&S is gonna do about that. I raised a formal complaint to M&S and got a reply, quote, "Our Sparks offers are designed to be personalized, meaning they vary from one customer to another based on shopping habits and preferences." How on earth do you have any data and statistics on "shopping habits and preferences" for a NEWLY enrolled Sparks member, in order to decide which one to offer the free gift? It clearly stated on the coupon that it was not a lucky draw and the recipient has 5 days to claim it. Shame on M&S!
We popped by to get some dessert when visiting friends for dinner. Really good range of desserts. I liked their fresh fruit and vegetable selection
To the lovely lady that was working the self service tills tonight on the 25/2/25, thank you so much for saving my phone and the lovely service your a life saver after the day I had today❤️ the staff always make the shopping experience better x
Sadly, I didn’t get the girls name who served me at the click and collect yesterday. It was around 6pm, and she was helping a newer member of staff train. She was very nice and really polite and helpful when I couldn’t remember my postcode and I had to log back on. Thank you !
Excellent selection and the cafe is fantastic
Had a fab treat before my shop, and was helped by a lovely assistant who packed up all my shopping.... thank you leigh M and S.

Morrisons Café is a delightful spot to enjoy a hearty breakfast, especially if you arrive around 10 AM when the atmosphere is pleasantly buzzing. The café offers a customizable breakfast option that allows you to create your perfect plate for just £8.50, featuring items like sausages, scrambled eggs, hash browns, toast, and mushrooms. Although my meal took about 15-20 minutes to arrive and the sausages were slightly overdone, the overall experience was enjoyable.
It's a good place to grab a quick, good quality meal. Reasonably priced. Well recommend.

Ordered at the machine, no table numbers available
Pleasant staff but waited over 30 min for 2 meals.
Disgusting and dirty tables.If I didn't order at the machine I'd walk out. My son got ill /sick after eating there.
Don't know how they achieved 4 on the hygiene rating! Definitely needs rechecking
Never again!
Shocking service. Seen many people served after us come and go. As I currently write this it's been 50 minutes waiting for breakfast. It is now the afternoon....
How this cafe gets custom surprises me.. AVOID
Edit I have now received my food.
Even had a nice soundtrack (30mins so far) to accompany my meal..
Management in the cafe needs a look at how this place is being managed....
Came here with my stepdad, we got the 2 for £12 breakfast offer. Food was subpar, I'd asked for my bacon well done and got it the exact same way my stepdad's was, waited for nearly an hour to receive our food, and when my stepdad brought to their attention that the hot drink machine was out of hot chocolate, they brought out a bag of powder and told him to do it himself. Just go to Tesco.
Ordered on Uber before work as I had no shopping in, I ordered at 12:45 and only got my order at 13:55, my breakfast sandwich was nice however I recieved the wrong muffin ontop of waiting over an hour for food that shouldn’t have even taken half n hour to arrive, couldn’t even call up the cafe to ask if my order was done
Came for breakfast about 10 and place was mildly busy. Ordered a build-your-own and was £8.50 for 2 sausages, scrambled eggs, 2 hash browns, 2 toast and a mushroom. Took about 15-20 mins to come, and looked good. The only problem was the sausages were slightly overcooked. Good overall though.
I’m sorry but the place isn’t run well. Quite badly tbh. Very slow n badly organised. Nothing compared to Widnes morissons which is superb.
Avoid.
On two occasions now we have been served cold food. A complaint was made to Morrisons and in typical fashion, a satisfactory outcome wasn't achieved. The tea and coffee machines were covered in flies and nothing was being done to remove them, and consequently they were buzzing around the tables. We won't be going here again.

Visit here quite often & always receive friendly, quick service.
Always plenty of options for food (cakes, sandwiches, etc.), seating is great with a lot of options from tables to more casual seating + the option to sit outside which is great with the current weather we've been having.
Place is also dog friendly which is always a bonus.

I went here with my mum today and it was 5pm and they shutted at 9pm but the tables were mostly already up and we were not able to sit in a very accessible place and my mum is disabled. So we went to go outside instead and the workers which were younger were unprofessional and uttered among themselves negatively about my mums complained. Tables and outside were untidy despite the workers not being busy at all and leaving spaces neglected.
Staff and company need to do better at this location as we have come here many times and have faced this issue different times.
Very unsatisfied
A very bright and airy cafe, however I counted 9 tables that had not been cleaned and where full of used cups, etc.
The staff member who took our order was very pleasant and as usual the coffee was the costa usual standard.
We thought we would try using our own reusable cups for the first time and it worked well.
We managed to find clean table and sat in-store to enjoy our drinks.
After a while a staff member started to remove the used cups, etc from the tables. For some reason he didn't clear two of the tables and never wiped any of the tables down.
We eventually finished our drinks and by now some of the cleared tables had been occupied with new customers. At no time did any staff member wipe any of the tables down.
Lovely clean Costa, can get busy but it's a nice environment for a chat and a brew. Special shout-out to Anthony who is always very pleasant and helpful when serving!
A big Thankyou to Lauren and the team at Leigh!
I called in for a brew but my iPhone died. They went out of the way, got a brew whilst they charged my phone so I could order an uber and pay for my brew.
A nice little touch and proof good customer service still exists.
My little sister wanted to give LOLA a 5* for her kindness on this occasion we came in as she was very shy I didn't want to go to ask for a caramel frappe, Lola came forward and spoke gently with her which made all the difference and made my sister's day!
Less than 5 minutes from me so very local with a good atmosphere, efficient, friendly professional staff, quick service and obviously great coffee. One of two Costas near me so I’m literally spoiled for choice.
Absolutely fantastic establishment with amazing friendly experienced staff, lovely& clean and great atmosphere. Definitely recommend

McDonald's is a timeless fast-food institution that has been delighting taste buds for decades. Renowned for its iconic burgers and crispy fries, this beloved chain offers a quick and satisfying dining experience. Whether you're grabbing a meal on the go or enjoying a casual outing with friends, McDonald's remains a staple in the world of fast food, serving up familiar favorites that keep customers coming back for more.
I had a very disappointing experience at McDonald’s, Bradshawgate, Leigh. I visited on 02/09/2025 at around 8:15pm with my family. The restaurant’s closing time is 9:30pm, yet almost all of the seating areas were blocked off with chairs. I sat at one of the only available seats, but a cleaning staff member told me to move because she wanted to mop that section, and instead told me to sit in the children’s seating area.
As someone with severe back pain and diabetes, I explained that I could not sit on the small, high round seats in the children’s area. Despite this, she insisted I move, in a very rude and unhelpful manner. I even went to the counter to explain my situation, and another staff member said I could sit where I was originally. However, the cleaning staff still refused and insisted on mopping instead of accommodating me.
This left me with no choice but to cancel my order. My refund receipt clearly shows the time as 8:33pm, proving that this happened an hour before closing. I regularly choose McDonald’s and have never faced such poor customer service at any other branch. The lack of understanding, especially after I explained my health condition, and the rude behaviour of the cleaning employee was unacceptable.
This experience has left me with a very bad impression, and I would not recommend this branch to anyone.

Be great if they could get a simple order correct (it’s not that hard) and the fact you can’t rectify an order because you don’t use your own delivery drivers is shocking service. Just don’t bother ordering I think every order we have made has been wrong. They should really take a look at who they’re hiring if they can’t get something as simple as a burger right.
Stingy portions, and a number of times our order has been wrong when we got our food. The McDonald's on parsonage retail or even the one in Asda are much better.
The restraunt was filthy and looked like it hadn’t had a proper clean in months with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. Service was also slow and the chips were stone cold, greasy and tasted like old oil and cardboard
Waited over 20mins the staff were rude and blanked me ...got refund but never again. The place looked dirty
While waiting for my order I went to go to the toilet as a very heavily pregnant woman to find them all closed. When asked to have them opened they told me to use the disabled which I had no issues with. But then told after finding that locked to be told that it is tough. The manager was rude. Jenna and jessi were the names of the staff that were extremely rude an insulting an swearing at a pregnant woman
Such slow service for 'fast food' waited over 15 minutes for food. The self service machine NEVER have the table service number and NEVER print out receipts. They serve the uber eats and Just eat delivery drivers first.
always messing the order up, really frustrating. food is okay but thats if you actually recieve it...

This is the first time we have been to the cafe but it wont be the last. The food was good quality and well presented. The service was excellent and the staff were friendly and welcoming.
Good food and service however dont let the prices on the website fool you, a club sandwich marked at £5.20 is actually £6.45. Only found out when paying and the response was, oh the website hasnt been updated! Cheeky.
My first time here yesterday,definitely not my last, what a fabulous place, clean,warm,friendly staff and amazing food, BIG cups for coffee, red hot food presented well, would highly recommend this fantastic café,
Family owned and family run, a true gem of a place, see you all again soon x

Lovely staff even when really busy in a Saturday morning we’re able to check what gluten free items were available. Staff also advised to check with them if what I wanted could be made gluten free to accommodate most of the menu! Food was lovely couldn’t tell was gluten free bread. Thank you x
Definitely the best full in English in Leigh. Probably in Greater Manchester and Lancashire. Fantastic, out of the ordinary lunches. Incredible cakes. GF catering.
The food here is amazing. The service is friendly and professional.
Had afternoon tea here yesterday and was delicious.
My friend has a wheat intolerance and they couldn’t do enough. Her afternoon tea was the best she’s ever had.
So nice to have such a quality place in Leigh.
Can’t recommend enough.
Lovely cafe with paybyphone carpark right outside. £1.30 for 2 hours. (EDIT: enter reg once in cafe and it’s free). Afternoon tea was fresh and delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed it with our Xmas gift voucher. Got a box to go as couldn’t finish the cakes. One of the nicest afternoon tea’s I’ve had. Nice friendly welcome. Was busy but still had a nice chilled atmosphere. Baby changing facilities available. Would definitely recommend. Food and cakes all looked lovely.
1st time at the cafe. Breakfast was lovely. Large portions ( couldn't eat all the toast ) Coffee was just right. Staff were excellent. Only in Leigh for another view days. Wish I had found it earlier. I am sure that our close friend will be back.
Based of the reviews I had good expectations but when I got my scrambled egg with pancakes and bacon, they were basically milk and couldn’t taste any egg. The syrup was also very watery. Not pleased to be honest.
Finally a great place in Leigh for breakfast. The coffees are great, choice of cakes and nice variety of breakfast to choose from.
Comes with parking and a 5 star rating for this brekkie cafe 🥰😍
Caters for kids also and highly recommend this place for both eating inside, outside or takeaway breakfast options

The Buttery Sandwich Bar Deli Ltd has quickly become a favorite spot for many, thanks to its mouthwatering offerings. Their jacket potatoes are a standout dish, while the minted lamb has also garnered rave reviews from patrons. The welcoming atmosphere created by the friendly staff adds to the overall experience. One highlight is their Bin Lid breakfast, which is not only hot and flavorful but also generously portioned—perfect for those who want to skip lunch or even dinner!
Only recently started to come here and it's absolutely delicious jacket potato's are amazing my fella loves the minted lamb and also ladies are so welcoming definitely the best in leigh 😁

Chicken cheese and bhaji jacket potato..how can you get this so wrong? The worst delivery I think I've ever received in my life. Went straight in the bin.
The food is great. OK customer service is OK. It's clean. The only bad thing is they switch the grills off early and can't order any hot food.
Horrible rude staff. Made a complaint about a sandwich and get barred. Young kids working in there. I doubt they have a food hygiene certificate.
I ordered online. I order a hot sandwich it didn't come hot and the cheese was not melted. I also expected the wrap to be made hot and it was not.. other than these mistakes if rectified I would definitely order again the food is well made and well sized a little over priced but if made properly; it would be outstanding food.
Definitely won't return here ever again.
Had the worst ever pepper steak pie of my life, couldn't even finish the stale, cold and awefully tasting thing. I was told it was warm in the first instance only to open it and met a cold pie with a bad taste.
Service was horrible. I needed my wrap toasted. It was simple like I would in Subway. If they didn't have a toaster, they could have simply and politely told me but they looked at me like I made the worst request. She grudgingly took it and went to the grill and used her bare hand to pick my wrap onto the grill machine. Horrible sense of food hygiene. I wouldn't even eat my own wrap without washing my hand. Ended up still a cold badly handled wrap.
First time here and will definitely not return. Horrible.
Firstly, they got my order wrong and continued to argue with me that I said brown sauce instead of red. I'm also vegetarian and ended up with a big piece of crusty bacon on my sandwich. Never going back. Disgusting. No regard for cross contamination at all. As for staff.... they are just so rude! I go here often for a jacket potato for my lunch. Today I thought I'd get breakfast. I will stop going here and go to the farmhouse round the corner instead where they have a sense of food hygiene and food cross contamination laws.
Delicious!!
Bin Lid breakfast was hot and very tasty !!
Was so much food, we won’t need any lunch
(possibly no tea either) 😀
We will certainly be ordering again
Thank you

Lovely little gem.
Nothing fancy about this place just beautiful people, food and service which is what most places lack.
Been going here with my mum/grandma since the 80s. Found memories don't cover it.
Don't go into Leigh much these days but had an appointment so took my children in. I had the same as I had when I was a child and had to hold back tears as took me back to being there with my grandma who as passed. ( That's the power of food ) potions good sizes, food delicious. Homemade and comforting.
This cafe will alway have a place in my heart.
Prices reasonable and will definitely be going in more. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Lovely little place in Leigh centre. Been there a couple of times now and they seem to always be friendly and smiling.
Coffees and lattes are good; nothing fancy, but big mugs and always tasty. The strawberry milkshake is lovely - pretty sure there were actual strawberries in there! - and again, a nice big glass, they don't stint on it.
Foodwise, again it's nothing fancy, a menu full of well-known basic meals and snacks. I had bacon & egg toast, my wife had a ham sandwich, and it made a lovely lunch for us. Nice thick bread, nicely cooked bacon & egg for me, and plenty of ham on the sandwich.
It's a decent price, and you get a decent amount for it, plus a nice atmosphere where you feel welcome.
It's dog-friendly too: there was a bowl of water by the outside table, so we're planning to bring ours there at some point when we're out with her.
Overall, a lovely place, definitely planning to visit again. And a bit of trivia my wife got: the picture on the menu in the window is of the current owner, as a kid, outside the place as it was then. Which we thought was pretty cool 🙂
Always tasty food. Some great home cooked specials. Reasonably priced and service always bang on.
Absolutely germ infested place wow not seen anybody that handles food like that for years the only thing missing was having a fag inside fingers in the food stroking customer hair yes it might of been a lovely blue but please wear gloves or wash hands afterwards basic hygiene ,then handling food nearly sick on the spot thank goodness it was a brew I had and a sip at that
Great place. Down to earth food and good prices. Lovely friendly staff who make you feel welcome. A nice vegetarian selection
Patrick & Linda are so lovely and friendly, Excellent coffee :D
Their food is really good, ate here many times and never had bad service.
Fantastic work guys.
Very welcoming and friendly with a cosy atmosphere. Our table was dirty and so was the cup and glass we were given. The food was very average and overpriced.
Always wanted to go in, done it now but won't be going back.
I stumbled across this cafe by accident as you do with most independent coffee shops, the coffee was ok but not the best i've had.
I did ask how long they had been in business, 1959 i think they told me and promptly showed me a photograph album.
Friendly people and down to earth

Had the medium sized breakfast , everything was hot but not the plate . Poor quality produce lacking taste , however the coffee passable. Service un-informative slow & it's just a job . Only went in just to try as walked passed many time , wish I'd gone to my usual cafe . Not impressed sorry .
This is a great place to eat, the staff are friendly and the prices especially are the best around. The food is cooked to perfection, and it is the only place we go to in leigh for dinner.
£7.70 medium breakfast with a cup of coffee, nice clean food, coffee decent.
Excellent service off the two young girls serving, very polite, cafe nice and clean.
Been going once or twice a week for over 3 years until this lockdown never had a bad meal., nice clean place even the takeaway meals are excellent. you couldn't ask for a better service. Thank you
Now been coming for 10yrs practically every week still excellent food and service.
Tina, Sacha and staff are lovely people.
Always lovely food and on this occasion I couldn't add a cold drink and I'm 8 months pregnant craving fizzy pop so I added a little note and then received this ❤ made my day thankyou xx
Brilliant place for a breakfast, staff very polite and service is exceptional. Enjoy my food every single time, never have a problem. They even have colours and colouring sheets for children which is fab when they are waiting for their food. Highly recommend this place!
Occasionally have a breakfast on a Sat morning. The two young girls running the cafe are so welcoming and really make the atmosphere. They obviously enjoy working there and it really makes it a nice place to visit

During my recent visit to Tesco Cafe for dinner, I was pleasantly surprised by the quick service—our meals arrived in just 10 minutes! My little one thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Despite facing challenges from a difficult customer, the staff handled the situation with grace and professionalism, which is commendable given they were clearly understaffed. The atmosphere was slightly marred by that customer's behavior, but it didn't overshadow our experience.
Clean quick service food very palatable Cheese and tomato toastie. Really good coffee. With option of plant based milks! For those who prefer that option. A good stop.

Visited here on a Bank Holiday.
Ordered 1xBig Breakfast 1x Standard Breakfast and 2xTeas for £18.35
. Service was good and food arrived quick
. Hash Browns were nice
. Sausages were a catering sausage but nice
. Bacon was a little overdone, but ok
In all Breakfast was ok but for same price or cheaper could have got better quality ingredients in a local cafe.
Table service disgusting. Tables left full of dirty pots and when the pots are eventually moved the tables were not wiped over and covered in food and stains, underneath the table was full of food. I notified 2 staff members that the table needed cleaning please and waited 10 minutes then I asked for a refund due to the unacceptable customer service. Even the manager started to ask another customer what they wanted to order whilst he was dealing with my refund issue. I will never go in your café again. The service has gone totally down hill and the customer service is unacceptable.
Service is garbage to be quite frankly honest. Staff are generally miserable and frequently misplace or mix up orders, leaving you sad with the completely wrong food. It’s also not exactly sanitary, with tables dirty and overstuffed with previous food/plates. Sainsbury’s Café was superior by a great margin. I strongly do not recommend.
I visited the Tesco cafe, Leigh The Loom, Derby St, Leigh WN7 4BA with my 3 year old son, as I was there I ordered a chicken wrap along with my friend who ordered the same as I was eating my wrap I took a bite to find something hard in it to my disgust as I spat it out it was glass in my food I opened up my wrap to find plenty more glass in my wrap. We informed staff on shift who refunded us but showed no concern in their own carelessness or ever asked if I was ok after potentially swallowing some of that glass, My 3 year old could of also swallowed some if I had shared this meal with him! We come here often and I’m very disheartened by this it put us both off our meals and it feels not much consideration was given about the situation.
I’ve attached bellow pictures of the glass that was found in the wrap after I opened it and the bits that came out of my mouth not to mention the potential bits I swallowed a refund just isn’t good enough and this needs escalating further absolutely careless behaviour from this store.
Went today to have some food and a drink. Saw the cakes had bluebottles flying on them, that certainly put me off ordering anything. All it needs is a cover over them. Made me wonder what it was like in the back kitchen. Disappointing.
Went today for dinner, the dinner came in 10 mins, kiddo loved it. Even when staff were facing abuse from an obnoxious customer they tried to deescalate the situation well. Can't fault the service as it was clear to see there were understaffed. Only issue was the customer ruining the atmosphere and swearing.
Cheap and good food 😋
Ordered the regular breakfast. All food tepid
Beans splattered across plate instead of in a ramakin. Egg yolk hard. Toast on plate and no side plate or knife to butter it. Sausages only coloured on one side Not offered choice of brown or white bread - just given brown
Only reason I ate it was because I am on insulin and needed food
Coffee was nice

Nestled in the heart of the Leigh and Wigan area, 4 Ways Cafe and Sandwich Bar is a delightful gem that may be small in size but is big on flavor and service. With just four tables inside and two outside, it offers an intimate dining experience where you can savor perfectly poached eggs paired with hearty beans and delicious toast—all at an unbeatable price. The friendly staff ensures every visit feels welcoming, whether you're stopping by for a quick coffee or enjoying a leisurely breakfast.
Amazing meals and service everytime

What a fantastic cafe I visited for the first time today (Wednesday).
It might not be the largest of cafes (4 tables inside - 16 people max and 2 tables outside), however what it might lack in size it more than makes up with the quality and price of the food and the very friendly service.
My poached eggs were cooked perfectly, with a good portion of beans and great toast to go with it. I also had a very nice cappuccino. All for just £6.00. The best cafe I have visited in the Leigh and Wigan area.
It was my first visit, and I can guarantee it definitely won't be my last.
While I was there, it was very busy with people coming and going with take outs. I am not at all surprised.
Convenient place to stop for refreshments and charge the phone in the middle of the day.
Friendly staff and classic food choices.
The bus stop and park are super close.
The atmosphere felt more suitable for take away inside.
Thank you for the warm welcome.
First time been today had the large bin lid absolutely gorgeous food highly recommended
Called in today for a large breakfast. Superbly presented and great quality. VERY GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY. Will definitely return.
Had a buffet today everyone said how good it was plenty of every thing ,lovely presentation and really fresh,would recommended them and they delivered
Just had small breakfast at Katie's cafe, first class food, spotless inside, very pleasant staff, Best cup of tea in a long time, would like to see someone try a large breakfast will definitely be calling again thank you very much will recommend
Deb did a wedding buffet for my daughter, wanted something a little special for the day guests, this was no trouble at all, they went above and beyond. We also wanted 2 gluten free, and I was panicking, but hey no need to worry as Deb had it all in hand. All the food was amazing, and the gluten free was all done separately. We'll done 4 ways you did yourselves proud. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you
