Bean Coffee

Independently-owned Bean Coffee serves up speciality coffee and a selection of food and other hot and cold drinks. Located inside Jackson House, it’s easy to miss Bean Coffee when you pass by, but the cafe space is open to the general public and with free customer WIFI, it's a great place to grab a coffee and get a change of scenery.

If you go: Bean Coffee is open Monday to Friday 7.30am-3pm.

📍Bean Coffee, Jackson House, Sibson Road, Sale M33 7RR

NorthRoad Cycles

"We build bikes and drink coffee"

Did you know that NorthRoad Cycles isn't just for cyclists? If bikes aren’t necessarily your thing, you can always pop by their Bikery Coffee Lounge, which opened in 2023. So whether you’re in it for the caffeine and cake, a pit stop on your latest cycling route or just an everyday visit to sit and sip, check out the lounge next time you're in Sale Moor.

Plus: At the weekend, you can choose from a selection of brunch sandwiches to eat alongside your Two Brothers Coffee!

If you go: NorthRoad Cycles is open Tuesday-Friday 10am-4.30pm, Saturday 10am-4pm, Sunday 10am-2pm.

📍NorthRoad Cycles, 8 Hampson Street, Sale M33 3HJ

Pilates Manchester

Pilates Manchester is more than a fitness studio – it's a holistic spine, rehab and performance centre. This established business sometimes gets overlooked due to its location off Sale's main thoroughfare, but it's been operating from Cadman House for a decade. The team will tailor sessions that not only build strength and flexibility but also focus on rehabilitation and pain management.

If you go: The studio is open for a variety of sessions Tuesday-Saturday every week.

📍 Pilates Manchester, Cadman House, 5 Wharf Road, Sale M33 2AF.

Rack

Despite its popularity with sandwich super-fans since opening in 2023, whenever we mention Rack, we're asked "where is it?!" This might be because of its first-floor location off School Road (look up!), but we promise, once you find it you'll return again and again.

If you go: Rack is open Tuesday-Sunday, 9am-4pm.

📍Rack, 1st Floor, 84 School Road, Sale, M33 7XB

TouchWood Designs

TouchWood Designs is a vintage, retro and pre-loved furniture warehouse and workshop. The large space on Chapel Road is full of furniture large and small, many of which are unique. Plus, for those looking to customise a piece or repair beloved furniture, TouchWood Designs is not just a showroom but can also repair furniture.

If you go: Tuesday-Thursday 10am-4pm | Sunday 11am-3pm.

📍TouchWood Designs, 51-53 Chapel Road Sale M33 7FD (parking is available on-site)
