Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Ince-in-Makerfield

"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."

"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."

"The Bagelry recently filled the bagel-shaped void in Liverpool’s life but they’re not just renowned for their bagels, they do a pretty epic French toast. Take two slices of freshly baked brioche, slather it in butter and maple syrup and blueberries and you’ve got one of the most indulgent plates of food in Liverpool. Address: 42 Nelson St, L1 5DN"

"What these guys can’t tell you about bagels simply isn’t worth knowing. With every flavour and variety under the sun of our favourite baked snack, how they display them is every bit as delightful as eating them. Let’s face it, if you didn’t take a photo of your rainbow bagel, did you even eat it?"

"If you don’t want to miss out on your bagel fix then make sure you stop off at The Bagelry on your next walk for a bit of fresh air. They have their full bagel menu, loose bagels, donuts and fresh coffee to wash it all down. View this post on Instagram"

"What: Described by its founders as “a big fat love letter to Reykjavik – its people, and their love for the coffee bean”, this Scandinavian coffee house and brunch kitchen provides not one, but three welcoming spaces in which to meet, work and enjoy great coffee and food. its Northern Quarter location is as Scandi as you like, with big, communal wooden tables, exposed brickwork and arty prints on the walls. One of Takk’s major draws is its artisan coffee, which is a single origin coffee from Finca Miravalle in El Salvador (though it does feature guest espresso from some of the best roasters in Europe and further afield too)."

"TAKK, 6 Tariff Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M1 2FF - Visit now. You may know Takk as a coffee hang-out, but this Icelandic-inspired spot is also a great place to enjoy a working lunch. Check out the satisfying range of Mediterranean sandwiches, flaky pastries and chunks of cake on offer throughout the day."

"Takk is a simple room in the Northern Quarter that’s been pushing the Manchester coffee scene forward for years. Stripped backbenches and a room full of co-workers sipping drinks from their big wholesome mugs. Great simple breakfast options too."

"The Egg Café, or as it’s locally known, the Egg is a vegetarian restaurant located just off Bold Street. Vegetarian and Veganism is a growing dietary choice and many are choosing this lifestyle because of the health benefits it offers. The Egg is a restaurant a little different from the rest, nestled along a back street and up a couple of flights of stairs you’ll be welcomed into this loft restaurant which is light, airy and a little bit hippy."

"The Egg Cafe can be found just off Bold Street on Newington Street. Not only is it one of Liverpool’s premier vegetarian and vegan restaurants (they did vegan before it was hipster), it is also in a beautiful airy loft space of an old Victorian warehouse building. It also offers fabulous views of the city centre."

"Another of Liverpool’s new coffee shops is The Red Berry Club, named after the origins of the coffee bean which turns a vibrant red when ready to pick. The Red Berry Club is an extraordinarily thin building opposite the Baltic Garden and next door to coffee friend, Ditto. They pride themselves on sourcing local coffee from Crosby Coffee and selling sustainable fashion."

"One of Liverpool’s newest coffee shops is The Red Berry Club, named after the the origins of coffee. They’ve taken a rather ordinary unit and jazzed up the exposed brick with some pretty impressive street art. The only thing slightly better than their coffee is the playlist."

"Inspiring the 1967 Beatles’ song Strawberry Fields Forever, Strawberry Field in the Liverpool suburb of Woolton functioned as a Salvation Army children’s home from 1936 to 2005. As a boy, Lennon would sneak in to play, and enjoyed watching the band at the annual garden party. These experiences would go on to inform his later songwriting."

"Located inside the YHA building in the Cavern Quarter, Strawberry Fields has an all-day menu but has sadly been closed and I haven’t been able to go yet. They offer a cuppa and cake for £3.95 so we’re looking forward to them re-opening."

"King’s Gardens is a 17-acre garden located in the centre of Southport Town Centre, on the Promenade. The gardens are a hive of activity all year round and are a busy tourist attraction on the Southport seafront. The gardens have been restored to their former glory with Victorian shelters and the Venetian Bridge showcasing the beauty of the park, the gardens have sprung to life with an array of colourful flowerbeds and displays, lovingly maintained by the community."

"This authentic Brazilian steakhouse features continuous table side service of different prime cuts of meat, including beef, chicken, pork and lamb. The vast range of mouth watering meats are cooked on an open fire and then carved at the table right in front of you, where you can pick how much you want. Located on Queen Square near to Liverpool Lime Street Station, Copacabana is in a prime location, perfect if you fancy a few drinks after your meal!"
