Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Hollingworth

"After an upsizing of premises after the popularity of their original bakery, Forge Bakehouse have recently opened a café within their new location. Despite its infancy it's already become a favourite breakfast spot because of such dishes as their Huevos Rancheros baked eggs and french toast. Also, any bread they don't sell from their bakery goes to feed the pigs at the local city farm."

"A venue that’s been so successful it was recently extended to the premises above, Forge Bakehouse is legendary around the Abbeydale Road area. That’s in no small part thanks to its excellent baking standards. If you’re prepared to head a little outside the city centre, you won’t be disappointed for making the trip."

"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."

"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."

"Located in the beautiful Barton Arcade, you can find one of my all-time favourite coffee spots: Pot Kettle Black. They have another shop in Spinningfield, but this one is my favourite. Probably because of the beautiful interior of both the cafe and the stylish Barton Arcade."

"Pot Kettle Black serves an impressive menu of breakfast fit for any breakfast lover from 8 am – 4 pm. Awarded the best tea and coffee shop in Manchester, it’s also a great place to go if you just want a coffee. You can get breakfast here from just £6!"

"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"

"Aside from baking artisan breads, pastries and patisseries daily, The Depot Bakery also has a cafe and the menu is heavy on the vegetarian side from breakfast onwards."

"A Tafford Centre pit stop isn’t the same without some warm topped cookie dough!. My Cookie Dough has reopened at the shopping centre – returning with a large list of flavours to try from Red Velvet to Fudge & Honeycomb (which you can customise by adding your own choice of toppings and ice cream). My Cookie Dough also launched a Build Your Own kit which you can have delivered straight to your doorstep containing all the ingredients you need to make enjoy your My Cookie Dough experience at home."

"My Cookie Dough has a seriously committed following, judging by the crowds at its Manchester Arndale stall (it recently opened another at the Trafford Centre too). Big dollops of dough are baked until warm and crispy, but still soft enough to dip into with a spoon, then loaded with various sauces and toppings. Indulgent flavours include red velvet and Nutella, white chocolate and raspberry, Oreo, fudge and honeycomb, Biscoff, and coconut chocolate."

"🍰 Seriously gooey hot cookie dough, with tons of topping options to choose from including Nutella, Biscoff, Red Velvet, Kinder and even Strawberry Cheesecake."

"This eclectic little bakery was established in 2013 and offers 100 percent vegan custom cakes, donuts, tortes, other desserts, and even light breakfast and lunch fare. Whether you want a colorful, whimsical cake or a more subdued, classically beautiful cake, it can be tailored to your special occasion. They have standard and more unique cake flavors such as their Gin and Tonic with Lime and Raspberry and Pistachio, and the same goes for their donuts with the Peanut Butter and Cherry Black Forest and the Chocolate Orange Cream."

"Found just off Hulme Park, this vegan cafe and ice cream parlour provide soya-based delights for those hankering ice cream without the cream, along with a great selection of vegetarian breakfast and lunch options. They’re known for frequenting festivals and will be at Chorlton Vegan Fair and Parklife this summer. St Wilfrid’s Enterprise Centre, Royce Rd, Hulme, M15 5BJ"

"We love ice cream that’s good for the animals just as much as it’s good for us. TeaTime Collective dedicate their whole ice cream range to dairy-free loveliness. It’s a bakery/cafe on Oldham Street and it’s home to dairy-free treats."

"Cupcake Time, which is based on Bocking Lane, Greenhill, is the top rated dessert place in Sheffield, according to Trip Advisor. Cupcakes are baked to order, and customers are able to choose up to three flavours per cupcake including banoffee, black forest, peanut butter and bakewell.

"Buried in the heart of Chinatown, Pho Cue might be the most unassuming yet utterly consuming takeaway you'll find on this list - and yes, the pun is intentional. Specialising in Vietnamese delights, we've never had a meal from here that hasn't ended in loosening our belts and unbuttoning our pants."

"Unusually colourful (its orange banquettes and Perspex back-bar give it a look of a 1980s Top of the Pops set), this Dale Street tap-house serves a mix of quality guest beers (Wild Beer, Mikeller, Burning Sky), and Beatnikz’ hop-forward brews, such as I Smash Citra and Generation IPA. The weekday cask ale deals are notable (recently pie ‘n’ a pint £5, Mon/Tues), as is Beatnikz’s ability to bag high-profile guests for its meet-the-brewer events. For instance Arbor Ales and US star Modern Times. Pint from £3.70, beatnikzrepublic.com"

"Beatnikz microbrewery is located in a railway arch in the Green Quarter, and their taproom used to be too. But they closed it last year and moved to a shiny new bar in the Northern Quarter where they’ve just introduced a beer slushie machine. Head in to enjoy their core range of beers."

"One of the best places to eat pizza in Manchester, Proove is a firm choice for alfresco dinners in the warmer months. Get stuck onto freshly baked Neapolitan slices in their cosy terrace space on a chilled out date or long-awaited catch-up with pals."

"Another luxe offering from the San Carlo group, this fun (and date-worthy) Italian restaurant in Manchester follows the signature style of sister sites. Head to Fumo to find sunny splashes of yellow from the banquette seating through to an eye-catching wall feature."

"The San Carlo chain certainly seems to know what it's doing, so the arrival of Fumo - its fifth restaurant in Manchester - is exciting most welcome."
