Manchester Jewish Museum

I took a tour of the museum and then enjoyed lunch. The food was incredible!

Located on the ground floor of the new expansion, this small café is bright and welcoming. There are a few tables near the entrance by the outside wall of the synagogue. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Though the menu is limited, it offers some intriguing options. I recommend trying the non-skim cream cheese bagel and the carrot ox for a unique flavor experience.

This is a great spot in Manchester, looks like the salmon bagel is on the menu to stay but the rest of the menu seems to change pretty often, there were 3 options when we visited, the Dafina was in fact vegan although labelled as Vegetarian on the menu, the chef advised this was because they used to serve it with honey in, we had the Dafina and the chickpea soup, which came with bread. Both were very hearty warm dishes and very tasty. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The venue is beautiful. Highly recommend a visit. Would have been a 5 star if fully Vegan.

Never had vegan salmon before. I don’t actually think I’ve tasted real salmon! This was so delicious.

Very much enjoyed lunch in the small vegetarian cafe section of the museum. The vegetable lentil Cholent was delicious large enough to share. The vegan ‘smoked salmon’ ‘cream cheese’ bagels were very tasty enjoyable. Selection of plant based milks for drinks. Staff were helpful. While I personally prefer crispier bagels these were softer, more like buns, I very much enjoyed the food highly recommend a visit.
