About This Pub
Oh, All the Shapes in Prestwich is one of those places that really pulls you in with its great grub and homely feel – I've heard from a few that the food is always a winner, whether it's a hearty brunch or something moreish like their green eggs, and the coffee's spot on too. It's ideal for a laid-back meet-up with mates, and when the staff are in good spirits, they're just brilliant. But, let's be honest, it's not all perfect; there've been times when service has dragged or felt a bit off, like having to fetch your own drinks or dealing with mistakes that make you wish they'd put in a bit more effort. Plus, if you're thinking of heading there late or with the family, it might not live up to expectations – one chap mentioned getting the brush-off at 10:30pm, and another felt it wasn't as family-friendly as some other spots around. Overall, it's got that 4.5-star buzz for a reason, but I'd say it's worth a visit if you're in the area, just go in with your eyes open and maybe aim for a quieter time.
Pros and Cons
Pros
-
The food is absolutely spot on – think delicious brunches and well-balanced meals that leave you wanting more, like those green eggs that one mate raved about.
-
It's got a really nice, cosy atmosphere, perfect for a catch-up with friends over coffee or a quick bite; it's that kind of welcoming spot you'd want to pop into.
-
The coffee is consistently brilliant, and when the staff are on form, they're just lovely, making you feel right at home.
Cons
-
Service can be a bit patchy at times, with some folks mentioning slow mistakes that take the shine off an otherwise good meal.
-
It doesn't always feel the most welcoming, especially if you're popping in later in the evening – one person was turned away early, which is a real shame.
-
It might not be the best for families; some have said it's not as accommodating as other local spots, so worth keeping in mind if you've got little ones in tow.

Arrived at 10:30pm on a Friday (keeping in mind they close at midnight) and they told us (6 people group) it was last orders aka you're not welcome. Such a shame I was happy to support local business. Clearly keen for an early finish and didn't want to serve any more customers 🥲. I won't be harsh and give a one star. I'll give 3 stars instead
Cute place, nice atmosphere - food was good, shame about the service. Lots of slow mistakes throughout the meal which became a little painful. Including having to collect our drinks from the bar. Felt a little like nobody could be bothered - pleasant enough but I won’t be rushing back!
Like many people in Prestwich, I enjoy going to places that cater well for families, as we have a little boy. There are some fantastic places - Moonbeam, Coffee Sack - that are brilliant. The staff are fantastic and are always welcoming.
We also enjoy trying different places from time to time, and on the couple of occasions we’ve been here, it’s been the same each time - average food and below average service.
You get the impression that young kids are not very welcome, and it’s almost a burden for them to host you. And considering there are plenty of families in Prestwich with young kids, it’s a strange vibe to commit to. But they’re consistent.
The food is OK, but there are far better options locally.
My absolute FAVOURITE place in Manchester!!! The food is amazing - ALWAYS - brunch or Mexperience. The coffee is perfect every single time and the staff are all just wonderful. I can’t speak highly enough of All The Shapes!!!! 💖
Lovely food, reasonably priced. Stopped here for a quick bite to eat, had the shapes green eggs. It was delicious, well balanced in flavour and looked good presentation wise. Would certainly recommend this place for a quick lunch or a catch up brunch with friends. It also serves a variety of hot drinks, wines and craft beers. A hidden little gem for sure!
