99 Reasons is a neighbourhood cafe and bar at 99 Manchester Road in Chorlton. The compact, welcoming space begins the day with coffee and brunch, then shifts towards drinks, music and social evenings, with indoor and outdoor seating for casual visits.
Breakfast centres on cooked plates, sandwiches and bagels, including both traditional and plant based choices. The daytime menu also covers sourdough, soup and lunch bagels filled with combinations such as bacon and brie, halloumi with peppers and pesto, or pastrami with cheese, pickles and mustard.
Vegan breakfast and lunch options give meat free diners more than a token choice, while a children’s menu makes daytime visits practical for families. Food is available to eat in or take away, and occasional supper clubs add a changing, more structured dining experience.
Coffee and tea are joined later by craft beer, wine, cocktails, mocktails and spirits. Live events, exhibitions and music contribute to the relaxed community character, and guests with allergies should ask about current ingredients because the small kitchen handles gluten, dairy, eggs and other allergens.
Address: 99 Manchester Road, Chorlton, Manchester M21 9GA, England
