What a wonderful find (guided by my local friend, Andy W - cheers mate!) - The Goods In is reminiscent of a (sadly) now closed venue near where I live, The Factory Kitchen. It has a similar feel which is somewhat industrial but oddly cosy with underfloor heating & a wood burner occupying the space simultaneously. Anyway, I had The Goods In breakfast & what a feast - both for the eyes & the stomach. The plate is like a work of art with a sculpture made from potato strings, forming an arch over tasty bacon, a bangin' banger and two perfectly poached eggs, all mounted on a large, succulent slice of sourdough toast. With a side of beans in a pot (homemade I suspect but no less tasty than the 57 variety!) it's the perfect start to the day. With friendly staff & being a pet-friendly place (bring a coat or a blanket & your pooch can join in the fun on the banquette seating!) this is a great place to eat. This time it was breakfast, next time I'll have a lie in & try lunch :-).

Had brunch with my daughter, absolutely delicious food, fresh, tasty and well cooked. My daughter said her chicken burger was the best she’d tasted! I had mushrooms and poached egg on sourdough, delicious flavours. Quick service and a great atmosphere. Would highly recommend!

Good food and friendly service. Best midweek. Would not recommend Saturday lunch when it's full of yummy mummies. Really nice food and excellent selection of drinks.

Joint first favourite place in Manchester!!!! Amazing coffee, music, atmosphere, staff, fireplace and drinks. The marmalade margarita is my absolute favourite cocktail and the food from The Goods In is always amazing. I definitely recommend a hoagie from The Goods In!

The Goods In is a very welcome addition to the Prestwich bar and food scene - not least because of the location on the Heaton Park side of Prestwich. The menu is small, but good quality and very tasty. Their take on an english breakfast is especially good. Whether for brunch, an afternoon drink, dinner or evening drinks, it's a spacious and well thought-out concept that definitely deserves a visit. I'd recommend getting there earlier than planned as there was a fair wait for a table on the last Saturday night I visited. The Lervig House Party is a firm favourite and a very 'sessionable' IPA.

I’ve eaten here 3 times now and I love it every time. Delicious unique food, lovely atmosphere, lovely staff, dog friendly and affordable. I’ve always got a seat straight away too due to the size of it.

Lovely place, right next to Heaton Park metro. Only had a brew and a cake but it’s spacious, light and airy, with nice, big booths and a sunny back yard (looks like a good set up for DJ’s too) Coffee was good, sweet stuff was from Silver Apples, so pretty familiar and more than decent quality. Staff were super friendly. Will definitely head back and try some proper food and drinks soon
