Expo Lounge is a vibrant cafe with striking blue tiles, red trim, and large windows. Colorful outdoor seating and potted plants line the sidewalk, with a person enjoying the lively Expo atmosphere amid nearby buildings and trees.

A cozy café with people enjoying food and conversation at colorful tables; large windows let in daylight, and ornate chandeliers hang from the ceiling. Expo-inspired paintings decorate the red walls, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere.

People are dining and talking inside a cozy, warmly lit restaurant, reminiscent of an Expo gathering, with chandeliers, red walls, decorative lamps, and framed art. The inviting atmosphere features several tables occupied by guests.

Our Lounge

Expo Lounge is on a great little corner site in the heart of Didsbury. We’ve a lovely terrace and big windows (which open right up) running right along the front, perfect for people watching on Wilmslow Road.

We serve a great range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) in a really relaxed, welcoming, light and airy space. We were once an old furniture shop, and we’re proud to continue that tradition by having plenty of vintage pieces in our Lounge!

Three milkshakes topped with whipped cream and cookies, each with a red and white striped straw, are arranged on a table in a cozy lounge setting against a colorful, blurred background.
