Oklahoma cafe returns with a bright new look

Manchester’s favourite crazy cafe-come-gift shop has returned this week, with a new look and a new menu. It’s been gutted and rebuilt but retains both sides of its split cafe/shop personality. The cafe takes up a slightly smaller space to enjoy a new cake, coffee and sandwich menu including a range of tartines and extremely health-packed sandwiches featuring ingredients like gouda, avocado and harissa mayonnaise. The giftshop, meanwhile, is a third bigger and has been almost entirely re-stocked with colourful new gifts and keepsakes. Look out for Moomin-themed mugs and very reasonable jewellery.  The kitchen has been re-tiled with white tiles and yellow grout, while Oklahoma’s boho-hippy vibe remain with designer plastic stools by Martino Gamper and bespoke tables. Opening times will be Mon – Fri 10am – 7pm, Sat 9am – 7pm and Sun 10am – 6pm.
