"This is my fave of all coffeehouses and I use them all! All the girls are wonderful, especially Antonia (I call her "Toni") and Claire. Stop by on your way into Vue Red. Avoid Man U home match days."

"Awesome gym. Great staff. Pool area is to die for. Wifi is only accessible in reception recently so download your music with a free coffee as you head in."

"The camp guy behind the counter is good fun. If you can't get a seat you need two of you and you can lift a chair up into the hair. Tilt forward to offload the incumbent patron and voila. Seat free! X"

"Log onto The Cloud for free wifi. Use your existing account or set up a new one and hit auto log on for all Wetherspoons pubs and McDonalds."

"Cost couch by the windows. Being a franchise is cool. Less hectic vibe than other city centre branches. Totally handy for the gym, which sits above."

"Handy cut through if you're walking Salford quays to the city centre or vice versa. Especially in summer."
