Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Birch Vale

"The Ivy Spinningfields in Manchester is a multi-faceted venue, offering several floors of beautiful settings and tasty food and drinks. Apart from ground floor Ivy Brasserie and second floor Ivy Asia, the true gem is found at the very top, with the Ivy Roof Garden. Very colorful and very lush, the spacious rooftop really deserves its 'garden' epithet."

"The Brasserie at The Ivy in Manchester do a Saturday and Sunday Brunch (and bank holidays). The restaurant itself is a beautiful art deco inspired space. With options like Truffle Arancini, Zucchini fritti, Eggs Benedict and Avocado Benedict, as well as Hot Buttermilk Pancakes for those (like me) with a sweet tooth!"

"One of the largest restaurants to open in the UK in 2018 with 535 covers, The Ivy Spinningfields is set over four floors with a ground floor brasserie, ..." Read our full review"

"A post shared by Home Sweet Home (@homesweethomeuk) on Feb 23, 2020 at 4:15am PST. Another year-round pancake favourite, Home Sweet Home might be down to just one Manchester site now after closing their Great Northern Warehouse branch at the end of last year but their pancakes are still as banging as ever. Find them in the Northern Quarter to indulge in plates like these, topped with salted caramel, biscoff sauce, cream, strawberries and cinnamon crunch."

"This place really does feel like home, or rather an American Grandma’s home. It’s Grandma in the USA, in Manchester. Floral wallpaper, little framed pictures dotted on the wall, the smell of fresh baking; you feel welcome as soon as you step through the door."

"Tamper pride themselves on bringing the best of New Zealand’s culture to Sheffield, and I won’t lie, they do it pretty well. They’re located right between the Sheffield Hallam Owen and Cantor building, so even if you want to go mid-week for a quick catch up brunch with coursemates, you don’t have to wander far (if you go to Hallam that is!). Sometimes the worry with brunch is that it can be quite pricey, but I’d say Tamper is student-budget-friendly."

"Located smack bang in the middle of Sheffield city centre is Tamper Coffee, the rustic interior is what makes this place super unique, not to mention the tasty food. Tamper Coffee lets you experience Kiwi coffee and food culture for very reasonable prices, creating the ultimate experience!"

"Run by a couple of New Zealanders, this café has a couple of iterations but the best one is found in Seller’s Wheel. Bare-brick interior, incredible coffee choices and the best sweet treats you can find. I recommend the eggs benedict with bacon."

"On a cold winter’s day, there are few more heartening sights out in Sheffield than Steam Yard’s steaming coffee and welcoming interior. It’s little wonder that they’ve been recognised inside and outside the city for their quality. In addition to their great range of carefully-sourced coffee, Steam Yard also offers a fantastic range of accompanying baked goods too (including cheesecake brownies and intriguing kronuts)."

"Sheffield's own slice of Americana, with laid-back staff serving excellent coffee and doughnuts. There's also bagels, pastrami, grilled cheese and brownies for the full indulgent American experience."

"This is a cosmopolitan food hall in a beautiful Grade II listed former market building, on the edge of Manchester’s famous Northern Quarter. It’s the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner and/or drinks!. Along with a handful of food vendors, there’s a coffee shop and wine bar within the hall – so in fact you could spend a whole day there without stepping out from under the amazing glass roof!"

"A European-style food market spread over two floors, Mackie Mayor serves up a whole host of wonderful dishes from the individual vendors. It’s a big bright space that photographs super well, although it does get packed at the weekends. You’ll find them here."

"Just a stones throw away across the road from Steam Yard is The Lucky Fox. Even though it’s most famous for it’s amazing fried chicken, waffles and lucky shakes, which everyone in there is always trying to get the perfect Instagram of, it is also a super ideal place to grab a coffee. It’s quirky decor and American style dinner atmosphere, creates a completely different vibe to your standard coffee and brunch outing, making it a truly unique spot in Sheffield and a new rival in the coffee shop scene."

"Waffles and pancakes are the way to go at Lucky Fox if you fancy something sweet, although they offer one of the best veggie dishes in the city in the form of the Hippie Banjo: thick-sliced sourdough toast, poached egg, avocado, watercress, and tomato."

"For some of the city's best American-inspired eats, Division Street's Lucky Fox is the place to check out. The fun Sheffield restaurant specialises in delicious fried chicken served however you like it - in a bun, on a waffle or dipped in hot sauce."

"With a reputation as one of Sheffield’s most intimate venues, the Rude Shipyard invites musicians and poets from all over the world to come and play in their front room. And what better way to enjoy your Rudie adventure than sitting down with a Pollards coffee and a good book off their shelves. Address: 89 Abbeydale Road, S7 1FEOffer: FREE regular hot drink with any meal or upgrade to a large for £1"

"This lesser-known cafe is actually ideal for students, matching coffee from the famous Sheffield supplier Pollards with a huge selection of books. If you want a hideaway to disappear for a few hours, it’s perfect. The Rude Shipyard has grown a reputation as one of Sheffield’s more intimate coffee spots; whilst they always have a tasty selection of cakes on offer too."

"Nationwide Italian chain Zizzi is not exactly the last word in cutting-edge culinary cool, but it’s been quick off the mark to introduce some hot ..." Read our full review"

"For a significant gain (the vista) and little effort, you can enjoy spectacular views from Bamford Edge, making it one of the best walks in the Peak District. It is a popular spot for climbers, walkers and sunset lovers. Walking in the Peak District has never been more accessible with a walk up to Bamford Edge."

"The vantage point at Bamford Edge provides the most beautiful view over Ladybower Reservoir. This spot can be particularly enchanting around sunset as the last of the day’s light bounces off the water and hillsides which surround it."

"While idling in the Pavilion Gardens you could call in at this gallery in the main building next to the tourist information desk.

Cornelia Parkers Exhibition, Whitworth Art Gallery. A highlight of the fine art collection is work by famous pre-Raphaelite artists including Holman Hunt, Rossetti, Millais and others."
