Amazing food. Hygiene score you can forgive.

Brunch dreams, just watch the steak.

Federal Cafe & Bar is the brunch spot that Manchester seems to be buzzing about. With flat whites that hit different and a steak sandwich that has people swooning, it’s no wonder this place has earned a loyal following. Reviewers like Nabil A can't get enough of the halal steak sandwich with fried egg—definitely a game changer. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are apparently the epitome of friendliness.

However, while most experiences shine, a few diners report less-than-stellar meals, particularly with steak preparation. It’s a mixed bag, but if you’re searching for a comfy spot with solid offerings, this one’s worth a shot. Just don’t be surprised if the occasional dish doesn’t live up to the hype.
