Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Penwortham

"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?"

"This cosy café on Edge Street in the Northern Quarter is known for its snug interior, quirky detailing and incredible-looking cakes. If you’re looking for sweet treats to photograph, you’ll find it hard to select just one cake from their selection, so it’s a good idea to bring a couple of friends with you. And don’t get too stuck into photographing the food that you forget to capture all of the eclectic details, such as their neon pink signs."

"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."

"With the main space in the Northern Quarter and a funky outpost in one of Hatch’s shipping containers, this sleek coffee shop is an ode to Scandinavia. The owners are obsessed with all things Nordic (particularly Reykjavik), so opened this ode to the region complete with the house Nordic Style espresso (roasted by Clifton Coffee in Bristol), cosy ‘hygge’ vibes and trendy baristas. At the Oxford Road shop, there’s a more contemporary Scandinavian them, with a turquoise coffee machine, plenty of blonde wood and funky grey tiles create a calm backdrop to enjoy your coffee, or purchase one of the handy reusable cups and get an iced coffee to take away."

"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!"

"Restaurants Coffeeshops. Takk is a love letter to scandi coffee houses, and it’s been serving up hygge vibes to savvy Mancunians for years. They now have three outlets across the city, but we still love their Northern Quarter branch the most."

"North Tea Power was one of the first craft coffee bars in the Northern Quarter, consistently serving up a high quality range of coffees, teas and snacks. They use London based Square Mile beans, and a rotation of guest beans if you want to get fancy with your brews. From lattes to a V60s, they’ve got it covered."

"North Tea Power, 36 Tib Street, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M4 1LA - Visit now. The mighty North Tea Power is a Northern Quarter favourite thanks to its addictive grilled cheese sandwiches, serious good selection of teas and coffees and captivating playlist."

"North Tea Power, in the centre of Manchester, is dead easy to find. Start at the Market Street tram stop. Turn your back on the Costa and Nero that face you as you step off the tram and gird your loins when you see the Starbucks on the other side of the road."

"Ezra & Gil may have made a name doing breakfast, brunch and coffee, but since it decided to turn its hand to refreshing poke bowls as well as seasonal salads and pasta, it has truly levelled up. Stylised as 'Ezra by night', head chef, Dan, wanted to add more to evening offerings and, boy, did he. View this post on Instagram"

"A firm favourite cafe in all of NQ, serving up some amazing coffee (think: seasonal specialities such as gingerbread lattes or iced rose cappuccinos) and their brunch is to die for!. The all-day menu is hugely popular for weekend brunching. This spacious cafe has some cool retro decor and a laid back vibe."

"This family-run cafe bar is inspired by the one and only David Bowie - with lots of memorabilia on display. Described as a hidden gem, the entire menu is highly recommended but the breakfast dishes have a special place in the hearts of regular customers. The American pancakes and maple syrup are a surprise addition to the traditional English breakfast, which is rated for its fresh and high quality ingredients."

"This cafe oozes cult cool and is inspired by non another than David Bowie. The family-run business is named after the thin white duke's glam alter ego Ziggy Stardust. Tables are daubed with Aladdin Sane lightning bolts, Bowie artwork and signed photographs from the man himself."

"Grindsmith has expanded rapidly since its successful Kickstarter launched the pod just three short years ago. The third of its (for now) four branches is in Media City, which opened six months ago, following on from the original Pod and Deansgate. Media City is the probably the most traditional coffee shop setting of all four (the Pod is, well, a Pod, while the other two, Deansgate and Cross Street share space with other organisations. Meanwhile, this one stands alone on a corner to the west of the new Media City development in Salford."

"Set on Lancaster Canal, Haslam Park is a beautiful Edwardian park in Ashton. The park's two main entrances feature Grade II listed gates and make the park particularly special. Since 2006, the northern part of the park has become Haslam Park Nature Reserve and that, along with the sensory gardens, lime tree avenue and old drinking fountain, mean that this park should not be missed."

"A very clean, centrally located fish and chip shop, the Sea Fish And Chips Restaurant enjoys a good reputation for the quality of its meals and speed of service. Many of the ingredients are locally sourced from trusted suppliers. Another location is close to Winter Gardens."
