Halal Reviews for La Vie Cafe Manchester

I had a wonderful experience at La Vie Cafe in Manchester. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the place was spotless, which made for a really comfortable atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavour. It’s perfect for a casual meal or a quiet coffee. Highly recommend for great food, warm service, and a clean, inviting space. I’ll definitely be back!

Outstanding service. Nice decor. Seats are comfortable but due to the layout I would say the place is mostly suitable for couples or small parties of up to four. Food was nicely presented. Poached eggs done perfectly. Taste wise good as well. Just wish that for the price the portions were slightly bigger. Proper fresh orange juice. Overall good. In my opinion it's solid 4,5 stars. Just half star shy from the perfect 5.

Came to have breakfast here. Immediately greeted by a friendly waitress who said I could have any table I wanted. The menu was vast, and all Halal which was perfect for me. The wait for the food wasn't very long, and was well presented. The staff were very friendly, asking if I wanted any milk for my coffee. I ordered the full English, and to say it was great was an understatement. It was fulfilling to the max, and the coffee was the cherry on top. If you ever come to Manchester, you need to try this place for your breakfast.

This place is always outstanding! Delicious handmade delicacies and a friendly welcome, every time. Decor is elegant and the place always feels super cosy, clean and elegant... Would give 6 stars if I could!

We visited La Vie café in Manchester based on a friend’s recommendation, especially for their French toasts. My friend had hyped them up, saying they were big and filling. Unfortunately, they were quite underwhelming — small portions and not very impressive in taste. We also ordered the full English breakfast, which was supposed to include halloumi, but it wasn’t served. Overall, the plate felt sparse and not satisfying. The café itself is styled like many trendy spots, somewhat imitating the aesthetic of popular cafés in London, but lacking a unique touch. The biggest disappointment was the service. When we pointed out the missing items and other issues, there was no effort to fix or even acknowledge them properly. Overall, the experience fell short of our expectations. Maybe it was just a bad day, but I don’t think I’d come back.
