Welcome to à bloc. The cafe on the corner.

Book onto our latest supper club or tasting event

Join us Thursday November 7th for a 4 course Japanese inspired menu curated by Midori Didsbury

Suburban, but not.

We’re à bloc. A neighbourhood cafe serving brunch, coffee, fresh bakes, cocktails and more. Run by people who love great food and drink, and love the Altrincham community too.

We hope you join us for really really good morning coffees and bakes, lazy brunches and evening supper clubs. Natural wines and nice times. Spend all afternoon with us, or grab a takeaway coffee and feed the ducks.

Why à bloc?

Cycling and coffee go together like… well. They go together. We’re not bike nuts, but we love the cycling history of our building. It was a bike repair shop for decades, and a cycling cafe for years after that. It’s part of the fabric of the place.

In cycling, ‘à bloc’ means when a rider is going all out to do their very best. We think that’s an approach you can apply to hospitality: pulling on all your knowledge, resources and passion to make a great outcome. It’s also french for ‘on the block’. Fancy.

Hit the suburbs.
