Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Lydgate

"What: Something of an all-rounder, this glamorous Manchester outpost of The Ivy offers menus that take diners through from breakfast till dinner, with brunch and afternoon tea inbetween. The restaurant also comes with two outdoor dining areas, including a rooftop garden that’s available for private hire and a ground floor terrace. While working on your tan, you can tuck Ivy signatures such as the shepherd’s pie and chicken milanese."

"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"

"Home Sweet Home has grown from humble beginnings to many locals’ favourite eatery that now boasts two locations in the city. Whether you opt to eat in the original Northern Quarter branch or the newer venue in Great Northern, expect a huge focus on dessert alongside the equally impressive savoury menu. The ice-cream shakes hark back to the 1950s in the best possible way, American style pancakes are the ultimate breakfast treat and their deep dish cookie pie is to die for – and that’s not even mentioning the incredible array of colourful sugar-covered pimped out cakes that sit tantalisingly in their dessert bar."

"Apart from their regular diner menu (which is filled with all things deliciously fried, greasy diner style), the desserts and milkshakes are the winners that’ll make you feel right at home!. And just when you think it’s just another American diner, they’ll hit you with three-tier cakes that have icing and chocolate cookies piled on top, they hit you with sugar-dusted mountain high stacks of bacon and waffles drenched in maple syrup!. But the thing that sets HSH apart from other dessert places?"

"From the towering cakes to the boozy milkshakes, Home Sweet Home is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth. The American-inspired brunch restaurant will wipe away any morning blues with its titan breakfasts; opt for pancake stacks with a breakfast cocktail thrown in for good measure."

"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."

"A photo posted by Brunch and Bananas (@brunchandbananas) on Jan 29, 2017 at 3:43am PST. Bringing the best of Kiwi cafe culture to the Steel City, Tamper Coffee is a bit of a Sheffield institution these days, and now has two locations just 10 minutes apart. Their healthy and modern yet totally tempting brunch menu is great for vegetarians, and even has a few options for vegans."

"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!"

"Veggie & Vegan Friendly – If you’re vegan, a lover of coffee and crave a peanut butter brownie then look no further than the Steam Yard. Eating cake just somehow got better!. Plus the brownies have nuts in, so surely that’s one of your five a day, right??"

"From the makers of Altrincham’s Market House food hall, this city-centre spin-off corrals a similarly stellar lineup of traders (burger and steak stars Tender Cow, Honest Crust, Pico’s Tacos, New Wave Ramen, Mumma’s Fried Chicken) into Mackie Mayor, in the Grade II-listed former Smithfield market. Look out for irregular special events, such as dinners on 1 and 8 July with hotly tipped Manc pop-up Higher Ground, creators of the already-legendary oxtail madras pasty. No bookings, outdoor seating available, app-ordering, currently card-only."

"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."

"You can pick up a tasty meal from a number of independent vendors, grab a coffee, or even a pint. 📍 Where can I find it?. Mackie Mayor, 1 Eagle St, Manchester, M4 5BU"

"Carluccio’s is in the heart of the main Spinningfields financial district, overlooking the open spaces of Hardman Square. There’s also a branch in The Trafford Centre."

"Bill’s in Spinningfields is celebrating Shrove Tuesday with a brand new pancake menu, available to order from 21 February to 1 March. The inclusive menu is perfect for both vegan and non-vegan pancake fans – with both sweet and savoury options to chow down on. This year’s menu options include sweetcorn pancakes with eggs, feta and avo, roast tomato and black olive vegan pancakes, classic lemon and sugar, banana and salted caramel, white chocolate with frozen berries and ice cream with chocolate sauce."

"Let's face it, nothing gets you through a difficult day in the office quite like a really great lunch. So forget about soggy sandwiches, sad salads and sweaty scotch eggs. The best lunch spots in Manchester are on hand to transform your day for the better."

"Open from 7am, the brunch menu at Bill's is suitable for breakfast meetings and drawn-out boozy sessions alike. With a menu that includes all the classics (from fluffy pancakes to perfectly poached eggs), a morning spent here is a guaranteed solid choice."

"One of the first places to open up in the now uber-trendy Northern Quarter the Frog and Buckets plays host to Manchester's longest-running comedy club. Not only some fantastic homegrown talent, but comedy greats also pass through from all over the world. There are two opportunities every week to enjoy a giggle, their 'Barrel of Laughs' night and also their open mic night 'Beat the Frog'."

"Contact Theatre will be heading out across Manchester this summer for a series of outdoor performances.

Contact will be heading out across the city this summer, delivering a series of outdoor performances before its building reopens to the public in September 2021."

"The Round Walk is a 15-mile loop that covers all of the Sheffield landscape; from the urban buildings to the rural valleys. The loop is split into four sections, so you don’t have to do the full length. See the Beauchief Abbey in Sheaf Valley and Bishops’ House in the Gleadless Valley."

"Sheffield round walk starts from Endcliffe Park and is a 15-miles long walk. You can access the map of this place from their official website. This exclusive activity offers the most picturesque views."

"Sheffield’s Antiques Quarter can be found off London Road and features a number of antiques stores – and antique buildings!. Here you can find the Highfield Library, built in 1870 and featuring classical architecture. Further on, you will find independent stores, many of which trade antique goods and trinkets, including military mementos, clothes and retro houseware."

"If you’re looking for a quirky corner of the city to find a deal or two, the antiques quarter is definitely worth a visit. Spanning three streets, the quarter has more than 60 shops. With everything from antique knick-knacks to independently run shops and charming cafes, it’s the perfect place to while away a Sunday afternoon."

"Located south of the city centre you’ll find retro and quirky items at Sheffield Antiques Quarter, there are over 60 shops, cafes and bars here as well as the city’s oldest cinema the Abbeydale Picture House which hosts cultural events and screenings so you can be sure to find plenty to do here."

"Discover the fascinating history of Adlington Hall as you tour The Great Hall, the chapel, oak-panelled dining room, the Minstrel’s Gallery, the number 10 bedroom, and more. Alongside the Great Organ, visitors can enjoy the original furniture, paintings, and décor of the building, or wander the gardens, attempt the maze, or enjoy a slice of homemade cake and a cup of tea in the tea room. I Opening Times: Public open days run on Sundays and Bank Holidays during April and September."

"A tremendous mixture of styles, Adlington Hall was founded at the end of the 15th century and then reworked in the 18th century. So while the north and east facades have romantic black and white timber framing the south and west wings are brick built, with a solemn Palladian portico. Adlington is hired out for weddings, but on Sundays between April and October the house and gardens are open to visitors."
