Abakhan Fabrics, Hobby & Home

A long established retail outlet that has expanded over the years from selling only fabrics to a wide range of products. It now has outlets at various locations in the north-west.

It now sells a wide range of fabrics, wools and most things one could want for crafts of all types. There is a restaurant which serves hot meals as well as sandwiches, cakes, scones etc. There are very weĺl maintained toilets and ample car parking. Customers come from a wide area and many make it a day out.

Big shout out to Alex in the cafe who managed to conjure up a delicious vegan lunch for me from the salad bar and vegetable sides. Really helped me enjoy my day out.

Fantastic service from a lovely young lady today who helped me with a table cover and tablecloth nothing was too much trouble and she even rolled the material for me I will definitely be back!

Fantastic visit. The fabric and habadashery section remains as wonderful as ever but now there's a fantastic cafe, lovely area for children to play outside and a beautiful gift shop.

Really tasty food, reasonably priced. Very helpful staff. Cafe is very clean. Wi-Fi available & card payments accepted.
Kids play area directly outside cafe.

Fantastic place, wish you had shops in the south of England, my husband is pleased you don't though so I'm limited to when we go on holiday

Free parking. Tastefully set out old industrial buildings. Cafe not cheap. Good food though and pleasant staff. Very clean toilets. Excellent range of materials and home furnishings. A truly wonderful experience. Classes available to help you develop your interest and hobbies. A separate building full of knitting wool and accessories. Another unit for crafters in a wooden lodge. All with wheelchair access.

Went for some inspiration - left 6 hours later! Great for fabric and wool crafts, was slightly disappointed with the "hobby" shop as it seemed to be a repeat of the other stores.

The cafe was perfect, we had both breakfast AND afternoon tea there!

Really nice place with lots of craft stuff to do. Ended up spending too much thinking I'll do it all! Reasonable prices and plenty of things for projects! :)
