Artisan Cafe & Gallery in Boston

Good selection of tasty food served by friendly staff

This Cafe is worth a detour. Whether you are visiting the gallery or not, this cafe is definitely worth a détour: the pastrami bagle was ***** so was the pistachio cake. The coffee was top so was the table service. Not sure who is behind this cafe, but one thing is sure is they do know what they are doing and they want to excel. Rare in this country

Exceptional cooking! Had no expectation in a simple cafe at a gallery but the food here was so yummy! We had a mushroom pie and a parmesan risotto. Both were great! Portion is small thou. They also have free water with the choice of still and sparking. As to the setting, it’s a simple cafe, could be a bit noisy. Probably we had visited on a busy day. (Note should grab a menu to check all available food choice. The board just listed with the special for the day)

Great place for coffee, cake and lunch! Lovely relaxing surroundings with a great choice of food with friendly service.

A very comfort place, and the Raspberry cake is excellent with a cup of coffee.

Brilliant cafe a real find in the city. Very relaxed atmosphere, wonderfully friendly staff, table service with a smile. The food quality is excellent I had a pork and apple roll a lovely cup of fresh real tea not tea bags and a home made scone with jam and cream Lovely escape from the hustle and bustle and a top class lunch They also do daily home made soup and tarts and a wide range of lovely looking cakes plus I noticed their mugs of coffee really are mug sized

Great cafe with lots of choice for cakes and drinks. It was busy, but we could get a table right away on a busy Saturday in Manchester. It's a great family friendly cafe.Cakes also cater for gluten free and lacto free, vegan and gluten free.

While wandering in for a presentation at the art gallery, I thought a coffee and cake would be a swell idea. I purchase a slice of vegan prune cake, with coffee served with soya milk. The prices where very reasonable, service prompt and polite. The cake was delicious. The room itself is bright and airy. It’s a lovely place to take lunch or just take a few moment out with a quality cup of coffee.

I really like this place. A really stylish space and plenty to do/see in the best gallery in the North West (bar none). The food is excellent, fresh, healthy and masses of vegetarian choice. The only down side is that service can be chaotic at busy times, with a strange counter ordering system that requires you to announce your table number when you place your order, with no guarantee that the table will still be available by the time you have paid. Apart from that, it's great.... and the cakes are the best I've had anywhere.

It's a pleasant cafe, and the staff were friendly. It's quite expensive though, so I don't think I'd rush back. That being said, the cake I ordered was perfectly adequate.My biggest issue is how crammed it is. I think it would be a more pleasurable experience visiting if it didn't feel like the tables were on top of each other. This made me feel like I couldn't take my time, and I felt under pressure to finish.
