Grind Is Coming to Manchester

We're opening our first café outside of London in Manchester's new St. Michael’s development. See you in summer, Manchester. 

Our Manchester Grind Café Opens Summer 2025.

A London-born coffee company, Grind has been expanding across the capital for over a decade with an extensive portfolio of cafés, coffee shops, and coffee trucks, as well as our own state-of-the-art coffee roastery.

Now, we're opening our first Northern venue, located in the heart of Manchester, in the new St Michael’s development between Peter Street and Deansgate. 

Known for our buzzing all-day coffee shops serving speciality-grade coffee, fresh, seasonal food, and expertly-crafted cocktails, Grind will be bringing our extensive menu with us to Manchester, from takeaway coffees to bottomless brunches.

Manchester, We Sure Hope You Like Pink. 

Founded back in 2011 when David Abrahamovitch turned his father's old mobile phone store in Shoreditch into the first Grind café, Manchester has long been on the horizon for Grind. With family connections to the city, David has spent years looking for the perfect site and felt that the new development, right in the city centre, had everything we needed. With Grind being a certified B Corp with a steadfast commitment to the planet, St Michael’s’ mission to become Manchester’s first fully-let net zero carbon commercial development made it particularly attractive.

David Abrahamovitch, Grind Founder & CEO said: “We’ve always said that if we were to do a big site outside of London, the first place we would go would be Manchester. My wife is Mancunian and her whole family live in Manchester, so I’ve spent a lot of time there over the years and I’ve always thought that a Grind would work well. We’ve looked at various locations over the years, but thanks to Gary (Neville) and the team at Relentless we think we’ve finally found the perfect home for Grind in St Michaels, in the heart of Manchester. We cannot wait to get open in the summer! ”

Gary Neville, Director at Relentless Developments commented: “The ambition for St Michael’s was to create a landmark that will become an economic driver for Manchester and bring together major names in a world-class, sustainable development. Attracting brands like Grind who have yet to set foot outside the capital is a massive achievement and testament to how hard we’ve been working to deliver our vision for the scheme and city as a whole.” 

Changing Coffee for the Better.

Grind’s growth is testament to the consumer demand for craft coffee that not only tastes exceptional, but also has a positive impact on the planet and its people. Now, we're bringing our unique craft coffee culture to Manchester. We'll see you there.
