Picturedrome Macclesfield - Macclesfield

We got the Grilled chicken flatbread from Ruben’s & it was delicious. Had a limoncello spritz to go with. The outdoor area was really chilled but quickly got busy at lunch time,
Finished up with cookies & brownies to take-away from Baked by Bean.

The Picturedrome in Macclesfield is a lovely place for a coffee and a bite to eat. We came here on a Thursday morning and the place wasn't too busy. Finding a place to sit wasn't an issue as there is plenty of seating opportunities. You had several people in there who were working from there and were having meetings or the occasional meet up with a friend. Only 3 stands were open as we were there, so the food choice was somewhat limited, nonetheless there is something for everyone's liking. To order you must use your smartphone and pay via card/app. There is a sheet on each table which explains it quite well.

Food was good. The avocado on toast with labneh (for 10£) was excellent, whereas the poached eggs on toast with bacon (for 10£ too) was slightly underwhelming and the presentation was loveless. Can't say the same for the avocado on toast from another stand as that was just 10/10, even the presentation and the portion size.

Service was what you'd expect and friendly. They took good care of us and made sure everything was alright with our food.
Atmosphere was OK. It was very loud, although few people were there. The kitchens are open so you hear all the clanking of the pots and dishes being put away. There is a little, wood fired pizza oven in there too, which I can only imagine, is a lovely idea, though the smoke and smell of the burning wood made us leave sooner than we had hoped.

Definitely worth the visit and experience, but probably nothing for a frequent visit or a larger get together with friends and family.

Loved this place! Never knew it existed until a local told me about it - I wish I had found it sooner! Great place to meet for mum and baby catch ups. They have a very cute kids corner with books, toys and blocks. Plenty to keep the kids entertained whilst you have a coffee. Plenty of food booths to choose from and a great variety of kids options (e.g dippy eggs and soldiers, beans on toast etc).

Visited here having visited the sister venue in Altrincham a lot. It’s another fantastic addition to a previously redundant building. The staff were extremely nice and helpful (at the two bars especially) albeit the table team was not as proactive and quick as they could have been.
There’s an incredible selection of food, from pizza, to pasta, to burgers and steak, oh and cake! Plenty and tables inside as well as an outdoor area too. Dogs are welcome as well.
I had the chicken Schwarma which was delicious. My daughters had the pizza. The latter is thin based, the freshest ingredients and they devoured them.
From families (there was a couple with a six day old baby next to us!) to couples, it caters for everyone. My parents are frequent visitors too!

We’ve visited so many times and is one of favourite places to eat/drink. The staff are always helpful and there’s plenty of atmosphere, dogs are welcome and the tables large for sharing. Plenty seating inside and a nice courtyard outside to enjoy too.

How on earth is this place 4.4stars. Last time I went the cake was dry. The ramen was vinegary and soggy. This time we went. The cheesy garlic bread was greasy. Like it was made with garlic oil. The shawarma was burnt. Was a sucky night this is. I feel sick.
