Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Cragg Vale

"Home sweet home is an American style diner with variety of tantalising dessert options on the menu. Not only that but if you really do want to follow the parents advice of no desserts before your meal, this is the perfect place due to the impressive savoury options on the menu, including toasties, tacos, eggs, bacon, waffles, fried chicken and steak. The indulgent sweet treats includes ice-cream shakes, milkshake, deep dish cookie pie and not forgetting the arrays of colourful cakes to satisfy all your heart’s cravings."

"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?"

"To the east the area is clearly defined by the impressive cliffs of the North Sea coast.

"Everyone knows that everything Scandinavian is cool, from their lights to their murder mystery TV to, well, their weather. The Scandinavian theming of this Manchester cafe isn’t entirely clearly drawn – not sure a prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich is traditionally Scandinavian – but the laidback interior is very Scandi, as is the giant map of Iceland on the wall. Wear a heavily patterned jumper if you want to hammer home the theme."

"Takk is a Scandinavian coffee shop very famous for the Nordic style espresso. This is one of the best options among Manchester cafés northern quarter. The ambience reflects the exact Scandinavian theme, where lightning and interior are correctly chosen to make you feel cosy."
