Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Higher Walton

"Home Sweet Home is an inevitable address for brunch-lovers in the Northern Quarter. If you are looking for some good comfort food, you are sure to find it here. We recommend the Eggs Cali."

"If you’re on the look out for fresh artisan coffee in minimalist, Nordic-inspired surroundings, then stark, hipster hangout Takk is probably the place for you. Undoubtedly a NQ favourite, the coffee at Takk is just as good as the atmosphere, serving ‘North Projekt’ – a Bristol-roasted Nordic Style espresso that forms the basis of all their drinks. It’s definitely a brew to keep the mind sharp, but I heard they feature regular guest espresso too!"

"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."

"Nordic inspired Takk on Tariff Street is one of the longer standing coffee shops on this list. Takk is a firm favourite of ours for grabbing a coffee before or after a trip to Piccadilly station. It’s also a great spot to while away an afternoon over good coffee and even better cake."

"Unlike their name would suggest, it is their coffee they are best known for (although they do have some seriously good loose leaf teas). Small brunch and breakfast style items, great gluten free cakes and a perfect place to work or read for a couple of hours make this a Manchester coffee shop that ticks pretty much every single box."

"A cracking cup of coffee, a great name and serves alcohol too (but not first thing in the morning). What more could you want?. 36 Tib St, Manchester M4 1LA@northteapower / northteapower.co.uk"

"A local favourite, Ezra & Gil is consistently busy, with freelancers, Instagrammers and general foodie lovers all big fans of the Northern Quarter spot. The perfect place to go if you’re after a seriously photogenic breakfast with a bustling atmosphere, Ezra & Gil has a tasty brunch and breakfast menu featuring all the classics, from full English breakfast, to all the eggs and smashed avo on toast a millennial could dream of. The menu is pretty big, too, so you’re guaranteed to find something that tickles your fancy."

"Ezra & Gil, 20 Hilton St, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 1FR - Visit now. One of our favourite spots for caffeine in Manchester. A spacious, stripped back location serving up great coffee and a delicious menu of fresh cooked food."

"Breakfast with a twist, Evelyn’s serves menus for every meal in their all-day neighbourhood restaurant. The chefs take full advantage of the spot’s global influences, in particular Asian, infusing things like Kimchi and tandoori with American-style dishes. The vibrant spot is incredibly pretty, with whitewashed wood and a whole lotta plants decorating every free bit of wall space."

"The second food spot on this list, Evelyn's is succulent heaven, making it a great photo spot. Their brunch was delicious (some of the best pancakes I've ever had), and they're conveniently located right around the corner from the famous Affleck's indoor market in the Northern Quarter.

"A reliable cafe and restaurant in the Northern Quarter, and a good-looking one at that, Evelyn's is perhaps best-known for its brunches and Bloody Marys. Its chunky buttermilk pancakes are dense and delicious, topped with fresh blueberries and honeycomb butter. 4 Hilton Street, M4 1NB"

"A friendly café, popular with the locals, The Koffee Pot serves typical English breakfasts, complete with a traditional English tea and the all important toast. With their filling English fry ups topping the list of popular dishes, The Koffee Pot also serves a Scottish breakfast, Irish breakfast, and vegetarian breakfast to add a bit of variety, as well as a range of hot drinks and fresh fruit juices. For those who seek an alternative to the full fry up, The Koffee Pot also has weekly specials, including buttermilk pancakes, and eggs on toast."

"The Koffee Pot is a Mancunian institution that’s been serving up hearty no-nonsense British classics to the good people of Manchester for the last decade. Their fry-ups have been known to cure the worst of hangovers and their smoked kippers, haddock rarebit and haggis have made the Koffee Pot the go-to-caff for lunches, brunches and all-day breakfasts. 84-86 Oldham St, Manchester M4 1LE"

"One of their selection of breakfast kits, Koffee Pot has a DIY pancake kit which includes twelve pancakes plus loads of toppings. There are four sausage patties, four streaky bacon strips, four potato rosti and four free range eggs, as well as butter, maple syrup and icing sugar. The kit costs £25 and comes with a carton of orange juice."

"Driven by a ferocious passion for all things Italian, Wolf can’t wait to welcome you back to the pack, with a spacious heated outdoor terrace with retractable roof available to sit at (no booking necessary). Takeaway orders can be made either in-store, through the Wolf app, or online via Deliveroo and UberEats. Open 10am – 3pm every Monday – Friday, we can’t wait to sink our teeth into something special from Wolf again."

"Alex’s Bakery is your Manchester cake shop destination for custom cakes, cupcakes, brownies, blondies, and even some English and Brazilian delicacies for afternoon tea. There are always fresh made cupcakes at Alex’s, and cakes can be custom made to suit whatever occasion you are celebrating. Alex’s Bakery is owned by Alexandra, who hails from Brazil but now calls Manchester home."
