GoogleThe food was just alright - not bad but not amazing either, quite forgettable. The drinks however were their redeeming part as they offer some great matcha and coffee types and flavours. The service is shocking. First of all, everything is very slow. I have gone to plenty of brunch places and know what a standard waiting time is, but here I waited for a long time for both food and drinks. It is a rather small cafe, so it shouldn't take that long, perhaps they meed more people in the kitchen. Also they got my partner's drink wrong. He got a different type of coffee despite clearly articulating his right choice. At least he got the right one at the end. The decor is very beautiful, trendy and modern, I like it. Would I go again? Yes, but just for drinks. I would like to try their dessert stuff though - we only had savoury food.

GoogleOverall it was okay average you can see they haven’t fully met their potential and with a little work and improvements on the menu we go a long way. Environment aesthetic wise looks great for pictures plating of Food is good. Staff service very nice only recommend recommendation with the staff that they use trays to carry drinks and not hold them from the rim when people are going to put them to their mouth. Food quality is average. The rice meal was nice. The steak was a bit tough. The pasta was okay but I wouldn’t say the restaurant is an Arab theme Food wise.. Also the menu is very limited. The mains about six with no starters desert average we had the waffle it wasn’t great. It tasted okay very chocolatey but the brioche was not soft. You can see that they have great potential to take it further, but they would need to review the menu and the quality of the products possibly. Service was good. I would say waiting for the food it was about an hour but the food came out a little bit cold. I would possibly go again for coffee and dessert and try something different on the desert menu. Parking is an issue it’s all paid parking. We pay £10 for three hours across the restaurant.

GoogleMonaco Café in Salford is one of those places that instantly makes you feel welcome. The atmosphere is warm, clean, and relaxed — perfect whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee or sitting down for a proper breakfast or lunch. The food is consistently fresh and well presented. The full English breakfast is generous and cooked perfectly, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. Their sandwiches and paninis are also packed with flavour and always served hot and fresh. The coffee is excellent — rich, smooth, and made with care. What really makes this café stand out is the friendly service. The staff are attentive and genuinely care about customers having a good experience. Definitely one of the best cafés in Salford and Manchester.

The atmosphere was great, really welcoming and comfortable, which made the whole experience even better. The staff were especially amazing ,friendly, attentive and genuinely helpful throughout. It’s a shame to see some negative reviews because my visit was genuinely positive, and I’d definitely come back again.

GoogleIncredible experience, beautiful venue, real attention to detail with the ambience!! Convenient location with the car park a couple of steps away. Pistachio French toast, delicious and just the right amount of sweetness. The steak was sensational and cooked to perfection, really savoury, great quality of meat. Finished with a stunning oat caramel latte to finish, Really intense coffee beans, which we loved. If clean aesthetics and Monaco vibes Is your thing, this place is a must visit can’t wait to try again. Me and the girls have definitely found a new local spot! Zainab our waitress was an absolute diamond as well super sweet and very attentive.
