Reclamation Room - Oldham

The restaurant offers delicious food, tasty cocktails, and a pleasant ambiance. I would recommend it for both lunch and dinner. They are now serving tapas in the evening.

Came for brunch, garlic mushrooms with cheese on toasted sourdough with a poached egg; very good, lovely crunch to the crust of the toast. Rarebit with poached egg, also on sourdough was also very well received. Tea was fair trade, loose leaf and good. I'll be back.

The place is great, the coffee is amazing, up there with being the best in saddleworth. I mean you can see the coffee machine its next level, puts starbucks to shame. The selection of cakes is amazing especially if youre vegan or GF The staff are just lovely and best of all the food is amazing I recommend The Welsh Rarebit and ask for a side of chutney!

The food was delicious, and we were happy we went. The kids' meals were excellent, and the poached eggs were superb. We will definitely be coming back when we visit next time.

This review is about one visit, as a vegan for breakfast. I will definitely return to try other menu options and then write a fuller review. The vegan breakfast was served on a side plate which for bigger appetites might be disappointing. small but However they’ve used really good quality, more expensive ingredients than are commonly used. I couldn’t quite finish it and you could always ask for an extra sausage or more toast. I think they could have made it look bigger by using a dinner plate. The only thing I would add is that several components of the meal had added flavours. So the mushrooms were herby, the excellent beans were delicious with a strong tomato and onion base that wouldn’t be out of place with pasta. The guacamole was good, a little thin and slightly watery texture wise. Just small details in the prep and personal preference. The service was excellent. The toilets clean. The coffee yes very well made and the oat milk was reasonable. Again, personal preference, the vegan latte could benefit from a barista oat milk. It just gives a more neutral background and richer creamier feel. The menu is extensive and they offer a kids choice, always gets an extra tick from me. This place is somewhere to feel comfortable as a group, family, cosy couple or solo. I enjoyed being here. The environment and styling is really perfect. Great atmosphere, a level of privacy between the tables and music just at the right audible setting to create a vibe and more privacy. Would I return? Yes. Could there be improvements? Yes. But I think that’s often vegan life. A lot of vegan food tries to either replicate the meat versions or can frequently overcompensate by being too flavoured instead of standing by its own value like the guac some fresh slices might have worked better. And I would add that next time I would mention some preferences on ordering and I’m sure the staff would accommodate. For example , a double shot of coffee.
