⚖ Case closed

Flawless, pillowy dough paired with bold, house-made fruit jams—Siop Shop remains an absolute must-visit in Manchester

Walk down Tib Street in the Northern Quarter and you'll spot Siop Shop's distinctive bold teal storefront. Inside, the vibe is relaxed and vibrant, framed by bright purple counter seating and shelves lined with specialty coffee. The main draw is their glass display case, packed fresh daily with a rotating selection of ring and stuffed doughnuts alongside savory options. The Tasting

Peach & Blackcurrant Jam Doughnut: A generous, sugar-dusted yeast doughnut packed with a rich, tart fruit filling. The dough hits the ideal balance between light, pillowy fluff and a satisfying chew.

Cinnamon Sugar Ring Doughnut: Stripped back and classic. Lightly crisped on the outside, soft on the inside, and tossed in warm cinnamon sugar that doesn't overpower the dough itself.

Affogato & Espresso: Rich specialty espresso poured over ice cream, offering a sharp, bitter contrast that cleanly cuts through the sweet, fried dough.
