Best French Bakery in Palacefields

"It's not unusual to see queues down the street on a Sunday morning outside Moose Coffee on Dale Street. Famed for its American style hot breakfasts, this burrito packed with refried beans, scrambled eggs, melted cheddar cheese, chorizo, jalapenos, avocado, chopped romaine lettuce and tomato will keep you going 'til well after lunch. And that's before we've mentioned the potato hash, tomato, pickle, sour cream & salsa on the side."

"Enjoy tasty American and Canadian style breakfasts, with treats such as homemade salted caramel pancakes and all coffee Fairtrade, definitely one to visit to start that working day. Indulge in breakfasts and brunches inspired by the American breakfast culture. Crafted, tweaked & pored over, Moose provides the perfect American Diner influenced menu making you feel like you’ve pulled up a seat in New York City!"

"Because coffee and a breakfast bun are always the best medicine in a crisis. Bold Street Coffee are offering their Egg Buoys in brioche buns to go, filled with scrambled egg, cheese and either a sausage patty or bacon. Or try the Veggie Buoy, which is filled with a fried egg, mushroom, avocado, hash brown, onion jam and cheese."

"Bold Street Coffee is a favourite amongst the locals in Liverpool. Housed on, you guessed it, Bold Street, the independent coffee shop serves some of the best coffee and food around with loads of vegan options to boot. It’s also in the perfect spot to stop at after wandering around the Ropewalks area of the city."

"Bold Street Coffee specialise in these gorgeous stacked and packed buoys. There’s bacon, sausage or veggie options and the newest addition to the family … a vegan buoy. If you want more traditional, they do a very decent scrambled egg on toast too with tomato, mushroom and avo – every day from 10am to 4pm."

"Home Sweet Home has grown from humble beginnings to many locals’ favourite eatery that now boasts two locations in the city. Whether you opt to eat in the original Northern Quarter branch or the newer venue in Great Northern, expect a huge focus on dessert alongside the equally impressive savoury menu. The ice-cream shakes hark back to the 1950s in the best possible way, American style pancakes are the ultimate breakfast treat and their deep dish cookie pie is to die for – and that’s not even mentioning the incredible array of colourful sugar-covered pimped out cakes that sit tantalisingly in their dessert bar."

"The Great Northern branch of Home Sweet Home offers an afternoon tea with a difference. As well as a selection of loose leaf teas or coffees and a tier of mini open bagels with maple cured BLT and smoked salmon, there is also a tier of fresh churros. The warm Spanish style doughnuts are dusted with cinnamon sugar and Dreamcheese frosting and served with warm Nutella dip and fresh strawberries."

"Home Sweet Home is a go-to for cheap breakfast in Manchester, offering an all-American take on the classic meal. Chomp away on juicy fried chicken and waffles, eggs Benedict and stacks of pancakes all washed down with fresh coffee, shakes and brunch cocktails."

"The bagel itself is a pretty nifty baked good all on its own, it’s almost a doughnut but not, genius. Now the folks at The Bagelry have turned the brilliance of the basic bagel into a piece of bready brilliance. Take for example the Sunnyside Bagel with an egg fried in each hole or the perfectly baked bagel with lashings of creative cream cheese concoctions."

"For a little snack, head over to The Bagelry on Nelson Street for some rainbow bagels. The kids will love these and you can take them to go or sit in and enjoy a cup of coffee whilst resting your legs. View this post on Instagram"

"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."

"New kids on the corner of Penny Lane, Bean There have a small but expertly crafted breakfast menu that provides you with everything you need to kickstart your morning (including really great coffee). Try the classic poached eggs and avo on delicious sourdough toast or alternatively go for a breakfast sandwich made with one of their homebaked Irish soda farls. Served warm, smothered in homemade chutney and topped with spinach you can choose from sausage, bacon or vegan sausage and even add two poached eggs."

"If the Beatles had written the song ‘Penny Lane’ in 2019 then surely this coffee shop would have made it into the lyrics. Located a stone’s throw from the street immortalized in the 1967 hit, Bean There is a great place to sip a cuppa while soaking up a piece of musical folklore. It is also a decent choice for anybody looking to work, owing to a decent wi-fi speed, quiet atmosphere, and plenty of plugs for laptops as well as tables for pads and paper."

"Bean There on the corner of Smithdown and Penny Lane is knocking out these little beauties seven days a week, ready for collection, or you could try one of their breakfast bagel sandwiches which are served daily from 8.30am weekdays and 9am weekends."

"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."

"Described as a ‘delightful high Victorian garden’, Biddulph Grange Garden is home to an incredible collection of plants from around the world. Shrouded in beauty, colour, and tranquillity, Biddulph offers a truly unique day out as you wander the landscaped gardens, discover hidden tunnels and pathways, stroll the woodland walk, and visit the undisturbed lake. I Opening Times: 11am-5.30pm, closing times may be earlier in the winter months."

"Facilities are children’s play area, a visitors centre with toilets, a pond, a conservation area with a dipping platform, angling. Once the ash tip for east Manchester’s power station, it was greened up in the 1980s and since recent investment, is a key green space within the Medlock River Valley. Clayton Vale is a Local Nature Reserve and is a great place for families to enjoy woodland and riverside walks, cycling, picnicking, or pond dipping."

"The Botanist in Chester serves crowd-pleasing comfort food in a cosy setting which resembles a country lodge. Food might include bangers and mash, or one of their famous hanging kebabs, all accompanied by a lengthy list of cocktails."

"Although situated just outside of Manchester city centre, on Wilmslow Road, this restaurant definitely deserves a mention on this list. Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen offers so much more choice than your usual vegetarian restaurant. With veggie prawns, beef, and even duck, this restaurant has gone all the way with creating the perfect Asian dishes with bursts of flavour all suitable for all palettes."

"For those seeking vegetarian and vegan options, Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen is the perfect venue. Not only does this restaurant avoid using garlic, onion and leeks, it also caters to any sort of dietary requirements customers might have. The owners are a couple from Hong Kong who want to introduce healthier meal choices to the community."
