Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Woolley Bridge

"Why: As with all of the other Ivy restaurants, this Manchester site is dripping in glitz and glamour, so breakfast here is as much about the surrounds as it is the food. Pastries and toast kick things off, while there are full English options for both vegetarians and meat eaters. If you fancy something a little more virtuous there is an extensive section dedicated to eggs and a light and healthy selection too, which features the likes of smoked salmon on rye bread and dairy free coconut yogurt with berries."

"The Ivy's terrace made headlines for all the wrong reasons when a fire broke out there just a few months after it opened. It hasn't happened again since though, so you're all good. This bougie London brand is still going strong, despite the pandemic, and its views of the ever-changing skyline are worth a visit even if you can take or leave the food (see Gordo on scathing form when he reviewed The Ivy when it first opened in Manchester)"

"From the decadent jade floor to the mouthwatering menu, The Ivy's Asian restaurant is bringing you a real taste from the East. Expect dishes from 'raw & cured' to 'dumplings & bao' paired with a huge selection of wines and a carefully curated cocktail menu."

"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."

"Found in Northern Quarter, Home Sweet Home gives you a taste of the American pie with its mouth-watering brunch menu. Home Sweet Home offers generous helpings of comfort food and over-the-top indulgent treats to satisfy all your heart's cravings - toasties, tacos, eggs, bacon, waffles, fried chicken, steak, coffee, milkshake, cakes - Home Sweet Home is classic American dining with high quality, fresh ingredients."

"Home Sweet Home is doing half-price pancakes today, to celebrate what is 'basically their Christmas'. Their stacked pancakes - three piled on top of each other - are served with cinnamon crunch, maple syrup and whipped cream as standard. You can then add banana, Nutella and salted caramel; or fresh berries, compote and frosting."

"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 pioneer of the Kiwi cafe culture dominating Britain's Brunch scene, Tamper champions the finest coffee and food, the former of which is sourced from far-flung countries like Colombia, India, Peru and more. Trying authentic New Zealand dishes is a must: start with mince on toast or 'The Big Kiwi', essentially a Full English with dukkah corn cobs and bubble & squeak. Click here for more info"

"New Zealand owned and operated coffee shop Tamper, has two city centre locations, with Sellers Wheel on Arundel Street and another on Westfield Terrace. They are open for takeaway gourmet coffee and speciality teas between 9am and 4pm every day, except for Saturday when they have slightly longer opening hours of 9am - 5pm."

"Aside from making some seriously delicious coffee in their comfy surroundings with a weekly guest blend from the UK's best roasters, Steam Yard also offer some excellent food too. Their lunch menu features salt beef bagels, pastrami sandwiches and a gooey three cheese toastie with chutney but their donuts (provided by Depot Bakery) and fronuts (ice-cream filled donuts) are some of the best in the city."

"The Steamyard was the brain child of two close friends who shared a love (addiction) of coffee and the social aspects surrounding it. Steamyard is not just a business but a passion, a lifestyle and a place that the boys are extremely proud to own. Address: Unit 1-2 Aberdeen Court, 97 Division St, S1 4GEOffer: 10% Off Retail Area"

"The sister to Altrincham’s Market House, Mackie Mayor has been a raging success since launching in 2017, offering food from a range of kitchens and communal dining at the heart of the splendid former market hall in the Northern Quarter. The guide says: “Highlights include Honest Crust’s wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas; the amazing Italianate brunch dishes at La Cucina; and staggering roast chicken and porchetta sandwiches at Rotisserie."

"Mackie Mayor, 1 Eagle Street, Manchester, M4 5BU. A ‘Time Out Food Hall’ style venue packed with an impressive array of local artisan food and drink businesses, in a stunning Grade II listed market building in the Northern Quarter."

"What: Decked out mostly in reclaimed wood, this vibrant Manchester café is the go-to spot for Mancunians looking for super-friendly service and an excellent cup of Joe. This independent coffee specialist also sells prints, cards and gifts, and is child- and dog-friendly, so you can take the whole family with you for breakfast, a hot drink and slice of cake or a hearty salad. Window seats and outside seating allow for people-watching as you take a moment in convivial surrounds, either by yourself or with friends, while a range of food and drink options allow for varying dietary requirements."

"A coffee shop located in Manchester’s hipster northern quarter and contender for the city’s best latte art is Fig and Sparrow. What makes this charming coffee shop stand out is its local produce, sourcing everything from coffee beans to salad leaves from local producers in a bid to reduce its carbon footprint. For this reason, the salad-based menu is rather small, but always delicious."

"Like many others, you might mistake Fig & Sparrow for a quirky trinket shop. But you’d be very wrong. Nestled to the rear of this popular independent lifestyle store is a quaint coffee shop that offers some outstanding beverages."

"Formerly known as William Sicilian, Sicilian NQ is the first and only true Sicilian restaurant in Manchester – offering up hearty, traditional dishes that aim to encapsulate the culture of Sicily. Think Sicilian wines and beers, antipasti, pasta, cannoli and even lovely traditional Italian desserts that go down extremely well with a good old cup of coffee. Sicilian NQ, 14 Turner St, M4 1DZ."

"This nightlife favourite has undergone an extensive £200k refurbishment while we've all been stuck in multiple lockdowns, and will reopen with new owners. Throwing open the doors to drinkers, diners and ravers on Friday July 23, Joshua Brookes will welcome Darius Syrossian on its big reopening night. The refurb includes the addition of a permanent site for Cubanitos, a street food business that's travelled to festivals across the country."

"Joshua Brookes is an iconic Manchester venue that plays host to all kinds of nights and has always championed the local underground scene. The venue has just undergone a massive refurbishment with a hefty price tag so that its face can match its legendary reputation. Tickets are always fairly priced and artists are regularly heavy hitters."
