Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Tyldesley

"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."

"If you love a bagel, and what’s not to love, then these guys are the experts. Up on Nelson Street, between Chinatown and the Bombed Out Church, The Bagelry is open from 10am to 3pm for all things bagel (and donuts if that’s your thing). Try the bacon stack, the oozy double fried egg, the hash stack or the kimchi mushroom melt."

"Liverpool’s first ever Bagelry opened its doors back in 2015. It can be found on Nelson Street, which may explain why some people still aren't aware it exists. Anyone who hasn't been here NEEDS to go."

"Liverpool and beyond, the bagel-shaped hole in your life has now been filled. A real labour of love goes into the bagels and that’s the reason we’re hooked."

"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)."

"Serving a range of single origin coffees that change on a weekly basis and dedicated to sourcing some of the best coffees available in Europe, Takk is freshly-brewing cups to go from its Tarrif Street site in the heart of the Northern Quarter only at weekends, so make sure to swing by if you’re passing. 6 Tariff Street, Manchester, M1 2FF. You can find more information via the Takk website here."

"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."

"An elaborate vine leaf design, reminiscent of Grimm’s fairy tale illustrations, leads the way up a stairwell to a narrow double doorway in the same red-violet hue that gives access to the café – a large attic filled with wooden tables and all the ambiance of a monastery refectory. The barrier between stranger and friend is often lost here, over delicious and affordable food."

"What to expect: A vegetarian and vegan cafe in Liverpool with a bohemian atmosphere. Arguably the most established of vegetarian restaurants in Liverpool, The Egg Cafe is a go-to spot for those who love hearty veggie and vegan food with a homemade feel. The bohemian hideout can be found in a cosy loft space, perfect for a bite to eat at lunch or a spotlit dinner."

"If you’re up early and exploring the beautiful Albert Dock and waterfront, head to Brasco Lounge to enjoy a delicious breakfast with a waterfront view from their outdoor terrace. With an extensive brunch menu, that includes all the classics as well as some interesting twists (try their Lounge Eggs with Chorizo, Peppers and Guacamole or the delectable Boston Barbecue Beans with peppers, tomatoes, hash browns and an egg), you can fuel up on their freshly prepared food before heading out to enjoy some of Liverpool’s best tourist attractions."

"Brasco Lounge is located just opposite Museum of Liverpool just by the Alberts Docks. This cute place seats 80 people in a cool atmosphere and serves a great selection of tapas. It is perfect if you just want something to nibble on or a proper meal alike."

"The Brasco Lounge on Mann Island is a great place to take the kids for lunch. With views of the waterfront and a kids menu full of options that they will love… you can't really go wrong. View this post on Instagram"

"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."

"Impossible to miss thanks to the bright orange sign, Koffee Pot has a slight grunge feel to it and a legion of dedicated fans. Touring musicians flock here for their breakfasts; the bacon butties are legendry in Manchester and cost a mere £2!. Looking like it is stuck in the 1960’s with graffiti on the walls, leather seats, and squeezy sauces, many people peer in and walk past, onto somewhere a little more ‘hip’ but this is a big mistake!"

"There's no brunch institution in Manchester quite like The Koffee Pot. A favourite after a night out and for slow Sunday mornings alike, this restaurant has made breakfast an artform. With tradition English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh breakfasts to offer, The Koffee Pot is a must-visit restaurant when you're in Manchester."

"Imagine if Willy Wonka invented edible Lego, and filled each brick with mind-bendingly good flavours just about covers it. Each waffle is covered in 30 puffs filled with your choice of blueberry, choc chip or banana, and each cute cone then filled with toppings as vast as your imagination from fruity to somebody-stop-me!. Puffle Waffle’s imagination doesn’t end there – the plated savoury breakfast waffle is especially popular with cheese, bacon and egg drizzled with ketchup or maple syrup."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. Tucked away from Warrington’s main town centre, where you will find all your standard high street shops and some small independent boutiques too, you will find Woolston Park. A wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning or sunny weekday after work, Woolston Park is a much-loved spot by local people."

"The building of the Dancehouse Theatre has had a fascinating history full of transformation, morphing from meeting halls to a multi-screen cinema complex. In the 1990s it was restored to its former Art Deco splendour and was reopened as The Dancehouse Theatre, home to the Northern Ballet School. While the venue presents a broad range of performances including comedy, music and drama, dance lies at the heart of this North West icon."

"St Luke’s Church, or the Bombed Out Church to the locals, sits proudly at the top of Bold Street and is a great spot for a photograph, especially if you get to head inside. Known as the Bombed Out Church because it no longer has a roof, it makes for an interesting photo for the collection. View this post on Instagram"

"St Luke’s which is popularly known as the bombed-out church was destroyed during World War II. It has no ceiling and plants are growing inside. You and your loved one can find tranquility in the city center there. It also serves as a memorial to the people who lost their lives during the world war."

"More commonly known as 'the bombed out church' St Luke’s was destroyed during the Blitz of World War II. With no ceiling, and plants now growing inside, it is a real place of tranquility in the centre of the city and serves as a memorial to those who lost their lives during the war."

"Only complaint is that I have to drive 20mins each way and the pizza gets cold by the time I get home. 14/04/2021: Without doubt the best Pizza for miles around..... Absolutely fantastic....."
