  “I love this place, but I am really sorry - today I had an avocado and egg on toast and it wasn’t great. It was quite watery, and even though the bread had been toasted it was soggy. Maybe the poached eggs hadn’t been dried enough after coming out the pot? Other than that, this place is amazing but I just wanted the chef to know 😔”

  “I have only been to Fuel Cafe twice so far and only during the day but I feel comfortable leaving a 5 star review because I believe this place fulfils the goals of what it is trying to be. Fuel is busy, but it is comfortable. It achieves comfort through its cleanliness, pre-loved furniture, charming knick-knacks, warm or natural light, and lovely service. The food and drinks are a good portion to satisfy, and the menu is simple and tasty. You won’t be waiting long or be disappointed on spending your money there, you’ll be happy. I was asked to leave a review on the Palak Paneer. It came with a portion of chickpea rice, some pitta/flatbread, and standard shredded lettuce. The paneer is cut and fried into a good size so that you are able to grab it easily with the flat bread and put it in your mouth without having to think about it falling apart or out of anything, which is good when space can be limited and you could be eating one handed with the plate on your lap or next to your laptop. The palak is smooth, mixes well with rice, and its flavour is fragrant-forward with its tempered spices as opposed to heat-forward, which is good for staying focussed on your conversation or work. Keep the red onions, but the lettuce can be improved by replacing with something like cucumber/kachumber/rocket or raita and maybe offering the customer if they want it with just rice and spoon, just bread, or with a bit of both, the way it was served to me. During the day Fuel Cafe provides a space for you to be at ease whether you’re there to enjoy lunch, order half the menu and catch up with a friend or if you’re alone and studying in your own world for hours ordering a few coffees and maybe a sweet treat. I’m interested to see how the place transforms at Breakfast rush, and at night as a bar.”

  “Great cafe, good food, upstairs is a multi function room and it feels less welcoming than down stairs.”

  “The food took over hour to come, when one of the orders was just avocado toast. One of the bean burritos didn’t have any beans it. The loaded fries weren’t presented very nicely (see picture for reference). They don’t have a customer first attitude and had bad service. Very unhygienic, they left food out on the side. When they gave us a knife and fork they were wet. The food wasn’t nice and the portion of chips on the side was 5 wedges. Wouldn’t even fill a baby up.”

  “Great cafe in Withington. All the food is reasonably priced with good portions. I ordered the mushroom and goats cheese focaccia with a side of sweet potato wedges. For £8.50 it was really tasty and filling. The atmosphere is laid back and staff are friendly too.”

  “This has now become an all time favorite place of mine! Im not vegan or vegetarian but watch my diet and many pubs and restaurants just don't have many options available to accommodate. I looked at the menu and felt happy that I had so many options. Staff was wonderfully kind, friendly and all around good vibes. They are also super understanding with what you eat or don't eat and honestly make dining out easy. My husband who was quite nervous trying food at a vegan/vegetarian cafe was amazed by how much he enjoyed the food. He had the chili burrito and tried the hummus and falafel with our mini mezze as well. He left completely full because the burrito was so big My fuel burger (soya) was absolutely delicious! Also loved the salads that came with the meals, perfect ingredients, fresh and the dressing was amazing. I also had a couple of their delicious chips which were worth the diet splurge 1000% Prices are also great especially considering how much you get for pricing and how good it is. Being from the Pacific northwest Washington in America it reminded me a lot of home, and its satisated a feeling I've craved to find since immigrated over. The atmosphere was amazing too, love the art, the colors and live music above on the second floor as well. So if you're also a fan of local bands and supporting local artists this is another great reason to come to Fuel Cafe. It's also very clean and well presented. Will definitely be back. What a gem of a place!”

  “I love this place. I'm not a vegetarian. However, everything I have tried from this place is amazing. Would definitely recommend. It also does a variety of different things. One of them being live music. Sometimes it is heavy metal though... my favourite meal is the quesadilla with home made chips and a shake (not decided on my favourite yet). Their staff are friendly and food is affordable too.”
