“ Really beautiful cafe with exceptional views of the heart of Manchester (Peter's Square and Manchester Library). Had a flat white and would've preferred a little more generous helping but it was very delicious (a treacly and rich tasting roast). Look forward to coming back as it is situated in a wonderful location! Has a relaxing and soothing atmosphere. ”
“ I'm rarely in Manchester during the week so have gazed longingly at a closed Atrium a few times but finally made it and it was worth the wait. Friendly service, amazing coffee (at reasonable prices) and pleasant surroundings that make you feel like you've just left an important meeting and headed to the breakout area to take stock of the numbers I hope I can make it back soon, highly recommended for those of you lucky enough to be in the area, definitely a new favourite coffee spot. ”
“ A very nice relaxed place to enjoy a quality coffee. 7 for a pour over coffee isn't cheap but was very good. ”
“ Absolute top-tier specialty coffee, with highly knowledgeable and friendly baristas. They have a wide variety of weird and wonderful coffees to suit everyone's preferences, and will happily take the time to go through what they have to offer to find the right coffee for you. The curated selection here has some really unique roasts with tasting notes I never thought coffee could have! This is a must-visit for anyone that enjoys specialty coffee. ”
“ Really good coffee n a quiet place to recharge yourself. Loads of options for hand pouring. Love it. ”
“ Atrium is up there with my favourite coffee shops on this beautiful planet of ours. The quality of the coffee, the setting and the chatty staff. If I worked in Manchester, I would visit there daily. ”
“ Been here during a vacation to Manchester. I would say this is a must if you love speciality coffee as the staff is very passionate and knowledgeable about making coffee. Would definitely give them a visit again! ”
“ Honestly one of the most fascinating cafes I’ve ever been to. It’s great that it’s pretty spacious and the natural light makes the atmosphere just perfect. I usually struggle to find spacious restaurant and cafes in the UK because most of them are pretty small and suffocating. I loved the place and the coffee is something else too perfection in a cup! The only thing that I wasn’t a fan of was that the chocolate hazelnut doughnut was very heavy and chocolaty we had to scrape off some of the chocolate other than that the whole experience was a pleasure! I would definitely be heading back there soon. I do wish the dessert menu would include more options though. ”
