Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Ashton-under-Lyne

"Founded in 2012, Forge Bakehouse opened its doors as a micro-bakery. You might think, why is a bakery featured in a list of restaurants?. Well, the incredible flavours of the bread won the hearts and minds of Sheffield, and the bakehouse has expanded to offer breakfast, brunch and on occasion, late night suppers."

"A real local gem, the Forge Bakehouse sources its ingredients locally, with northern roasted coffee by the North Star Coffee Roasters, so you’ll be sure to get a taste of Yorkshire here. Coffee isn’t the only highlight either, they also serve a wide variety of food – including their signature granola; yum!"

"What: With two locations – one in Barton Arcade and one in Spinningfields – this speciality coffee and brunch spot has proven it’s a popular choice for all occasions, whether it’s a quick coffee catch up, business meeting or lazy weekend brunch. Folk tend to come here for an exceptional brew served with a smile, but food oughtn’t be overlooked. Colourful plates of breakfast and brunch classics, from egg and avo on toast to fluffy French toast and corn fritters are just some of the tasty offerings Pot Kettle Black serves alongside a range of vegan and gluten-free options."

"This boutique coffee house situated in the beautiful Victorian building, Barton Arcade, is owned by Rugby League’s Jon Wilkin and Mark Flanagan. The core coffee PKB uses for standard espresso, Piccolo, Flat While, Latte and Cappuccino is Workshop’s ‘Cult of Done’. Prices start at £2.30 for an espresso, rising to £3.50 for a cup of one of their exclusive filter specialities."

"Pot Kettle Black is an award-winning speciality coffee store based on the ground floor of No.1 Spinningfields. As well as tasty brunch dishes, they’re passionate about coffee and dedicated to quality. Looking for something different?"

"The Depot Bakery provide some of the city's finest doughnuts to various cafes and eateries but recently they relocated their operation to Kelham Island and opened up their own café too. Along with this move came a fantastic brunch menu: The pictured eggs Benedict with ham hock is a favourite and their Bloody Mary beans with eggs are not to be missed, either."

"Set in a charming courtyard at the Neepsend side of Kelham Island, the Depot has become much more than just a bakery – it also serves coffee roasted by the same company responsible for the beans at Tamper, and delicious pies."

"The building mixes funky and fresh with industrial Sheffield perfectly; high ceilings, wooden communal benches and boho-chic make for a stylish place to grab your cup of coffee. Address: 92 Burton Road, S3 8BX"

"Located right in the heart of the city, Picadilly Gardens is the tranquil antidote to an otherwise buzzing city centre. Throughout the year there are events on including music and art events. From Wednesday to Sunday there is the Street food market which is perfect for a delicious bite to eat."

"It would be wrong to say to come to this park to escape the city’s hustle and bustle. Instead, you will be able to feel the buzz of the Mancunians meeting, eating, drinking and joking. If you want to sit down on one of the many benches or seats and people watch, this is the park for you."

"If it’s vegan treats you’re after, then Elly Joy has you covered. Known (by those in the know) as Sheffield’s premium purveyor of vegan treats, Elly Joy is now available to satisfy your sweet tooth at the Dyson Place development in Sharrow Vale. Indulge in one of her signature froconuts (kind of like an ice cream sitting in a coconut, with all manner of additional goodies), or treat yourself to a doughnot at their weekly pop-ups in the yard."

"Sweet treats with deliciously simple plant-based ingredients. If you’re vegan or follow a gluten-free diet, then Elly Joy is going to be your new home. Everything is so beautifully crafted with a focus on treats but in a much healthier way using ice cream alternative Froconut, a doughnot and even homemade salted caramel brownies."

"Froconut is vegan coconut ‘ice-cream’ served up with a stunning array of toppings at Froconut in Cutlery Works (Kelham Island). If you’ve got a sweet tooth then this is the place for you. Whether you go for their signature ice cream, pancakes or some of their fantastic vegan cakes, you won’t be disappointed."

"Brimming with sunny stateside charm, Coast to Coast Sheffield offers hearty flavours from across the breadth of North America. Timeless favourites include New York-style calzones, succulent Kentucky wings, and premium burgers made in house."
