The North Star Deli in Chorlton cum Hardy is a great place to buy quality and varied foods and food related items. It's also a good place to eat, chat and linger over a coffee amongst the squashy red vinyl bench-seats (not in photo).
North Star have now informed me that their " bench is pink leather rather than red vinyl - nearly blew our opening budget! ;-)"...
As someone who lived in Chorlton cum Hardy for 10 years (the "cum Hardy" seems to have sadly been dropped these days?) I can confirm that Chorlton is not only a place but also a state of mind, and this is a typically Chorltonite place, full of academics, artists, students, mums and babies.
North Star also opened a branch in the city centre's Northern Quarter last month.
I just love this sort of places!
ReplyDeleteThis is my kind of place. But I'm afraid I'd spend too much time there - eating, drinking, and arguing with academics! :-)
ReplyDeletePink leather benches!! definitely sounds like a place I could chat and linger. I love all those tea-pots in the display cabinet - I'll have the lime green pot with earl-grey tea and two sugar
ReplyDeletethanks Chrissy.
How wonderful where alike is possible !
ReplyDeletePlease have a good Friday.
This does look quite inviting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments, I'd love to serve you all with tea and cakes- maybe one day you'll visit Manchester and I can ;-)
ReplyDeleteI am off to London for a few days next week, and I will make sure I have ONE afternoon tea, with scones etc. !:)
ReplyDeleteAnd I will get a shopping list from my husband, to buy a bit of English food that we can not get here in Norway......
I like the tea pots, both the colorful and the others with modern design!
