Tea 42

Unfortunately, Tea 42 is now closed. 

A stylish tea shop in Manchester with a penchant for big cakes and a passion for beautiful cocktails, Tea 42 on High Street is a real treat. With the mantra, Eat. Drink. Social., the Central Manchester bar has an extensive menu for their glossy casual dining experience. Their carefully devised food menu includes an array of gluten-free options, along with light bites, sweet treats, quirky cakes and a refined afternoon tea selection, catering for both quick eats and lazy lunches. At the bar, drinkers can choose from not only a flowing selection of hand-blended teas and niche coffees, but an extensive wine list, gluten-free beers and contemporary cocktails. 

A chic and plush venue, the Manchester cafe bar is decked out almost exclusively in white and pink. A cut-out mural is a real talking point of the venue featuring the Manchester skyline, while plush while couches and regal chairs at a real gloss to the laid-back bar. Welcoming a mixed clientele of friends in for afternoon tea and professionals in for after-work drinks, the High Street bar has a real buzz to it, perfect for a quirky date night in Manchester, or drinks and dessert into the evening.
