Chorlton Metro Cafe

Might not look like much from the outside but this place is making some seriously delicious and truly authentic Persian food.

Nice place for breakfast. Might be a little expensive.The staff are lovely Iranian couple.

Really enjoyed it.. Decided against a fry up and tried one of the Persian meals. Good decision! So much flavour, great texture, and amazing rice.My partner has the special breakfast... And the mushrooms and fried bread were particularly good.Nice cup of tea too!

A full English Halal breakfast with a large Latte 13, Taste was excellent and the portion was huge....perfect for a lunchtime brunch....

Best English breakfast in Manchester, owner is really friendly and polite, good value, amazing Persian food too and sometimes a slice of Baklava if you get the privilege! Me and my friend love to treat ourselves to a metro cafe cant recommend enough

A true local community gem, run by a wonderful couple who do the best to look after their customers who they treat as friends and family.The halal full British is awesome,Your can't go wrong, support your local cafe

We ordered #2 and #5 on the Persian menu. Extremely nice authentic food and lovely, chatty staff. Would definitely recommend. Had peppermint syrup americano also which was really nice.

This cafe is the absolute definition of a hidden gem. From the outside it looks like just a regular greasy spoon cafe, but the menu has some surprises on offer. Alongside the regular cafe offerings, there's a set of traditional, home-cooked Persian dishes which blew me away completely. As a fan of Levantine cuisine, the food here may very well be the best I've ever tasted.I had the Khoresh Fesenjan, which is a paste of amazingly tender chicken, rich saffron, ground walnuts, pomegranate and an array of spices. It was sweet, sour and held amazingly complex flavours, served with perfectly soft and fluffy rice. Incredibly reasonably priced too.A shout-out to the owner too. He takes time to chat with customers and makes you feel very welcome. His wife cooks all of the dishes herself, using ancient family recipes and techniques.Don't hesitate, just go here and try it! Other middle eastern restaurants are just going to disappoint me from now on.
