My favourite brunch spots

Ezra & Gil never disappoints me. Delicious breakfast, fantastic coffee and best granola ever. You will love the vibrant urban atmosphere and very friendly helpful staff and a great variety of choice if you are vegan or gluten free! I would definitely advise to book a table in advance, especially on the weekend as there are always queues. There two Ezra & Gil cafes in Manchester so make sure you go to the correct one if you chose to book this.
