I was asked if I ever had a proper English breakfast so we came to this relatively new café that's…read moresix months old. I was introduced to Black Pudding, an acquired taste for even the English- pigs blood and intestines mashed into a hockey puck. I have nothing to compare it to but a taste of it was good for me. It was crispy, soft like pudding and a bit sweet. I opted for the tuna panini which was terrific. I read it came with chips which I figured were fries but got actual potato chips which was fine I guess. Michael said his All Day Breakfast was spot on except for the sausage which he described as cheap or watery. The other lads said there's were fine and devoured it spite being hung over. Before breakfast I asked to walk past the gates to witness the sprawling fields. I was welcomed with a bit of apprehension and took a few photos as you may see. Apparently no one asks to go back into the farm. I breathed in the cool air and appreciated the beauty of the English horizon. I was met by the owner, Bill Williams, in a tractor who stopped me to have a bit of a chat. He is a funny man when he said the view was "alright" and there wasn't much to see. I learned the farm was 400 acres and how he had a kick travelling the California coast line several years ago. When I return to Chester I will be sure to come back and eat here and say hello.

Absolutely 5 star in every respect. Glorious food served by friendly staff in clean and welcoming…read moresurroundings. The sight of a log burner roaring away is a marvellous sight on a cold winter morning.

Mothers Day Surprise!…read more We wanted to take the Mothers somewhere nice and out of town and had seen The Garden Kitchen had been visited by a number of our friends and family on Facebook, all giving great reviews and I can see why! We arrived for final service at 6pm and as you can imagine it was very busy on Mothers Day. The maître d' came straight over to us to let us know how long it would be until we were seated and continuously gave us progress updates. Whilst waiting we perused the small shop of local produce, had a drink and soaked up our surroundings. The Tea Room is a new addition to Holden Clough Nursery being built in the last few years, but looks like it should have always been there! It is beautiful and sympathetically designed to its surroundings. So, the food....WOW! I'd seen pictures but when our Afternoon Tea arrived on a mini picnic bench I felt like clapping!! (In fact, I think I did!!) Such a great idea and adds a little bit of originality and quirkiness to your experience. Everything on my picnic bench was delicious. The Mushroom soup was silky, creamy and full of flavour. The mini Roast Beef Dinner served in an individual yorkshire pudding was beautiful and of course came with a little jug of gravy and beef was tender and pink. The scone was fresh and light with jam that had just the right sweetness and fruit mix. My other main highlight was the Rocky Road, I'm not usually a fan because its too rich and sweet but O-M-G this was amazing. I still find myself thinking about it now two days on. The chocolate melts in your mouth to find small nuggets of biscuit and mini marshmallows.....all washed down with a great cup of coffee. John & Kate who own and run The Garden Kitchen have done a fanstastic job transforming Holden Clough Nursery over the last few years. The service, quality of food and surroundings are 10/10. We will be coming back during the day to visit the nursery (and no doubt the Garden Kitchen too). Thank you for a fantastic evening...and the Mums loved it!! : )

I went with my mum, sister and partner for the Valentine's afternoon tea, it was great it was so different from traditional afternoon tea you got soup in a tea cup, two open top sandwiches and a mini quiche which was a nice change from just sandwiches. The cakes you got was a scone. A mini red velvet cake, a heart biscuit, marshmallows with chocolate, profiterole with white chocolate and a mini love potion in a glass boot. We got a glass of pink proseco it was £19.99 each which is a little expensive for the place as its a tree nursery but they do a different theme for different seasons so it's well worth a visit. I would defiantly go

TL;DR - Great coffee, reasonably priced…read more We just dived in here for a reprieve from the heat whilst walking around Liverpool on a particularly hot day. We'd just seen the Anglican cathedral and were on our way to the Catholic one, and 92 Degrees was conveniently en-route. Since it was hot we both went for iced lattes and they really hit the spot: good coffee, and really cold. The price was pretty reasonable too. We grabbed a seat by the window where we could watch the world go by - they also had outdoor seating too. The general vibe was friendly and relaxed with a few people sat chatting and others working on their laptops. Definitely somewhere we'd visit again next time we're in the area.

If you want a lesson in customer service this is it. If you…read morearen't doing what these guys are doing, you're doing it wrong. When someone isn't happy with the coffee they've just sent out (which tasted great by the way) And spends time fixing it until they feel it's right. And then gives you more coffee! FREE. That's perfection and that is customer service. This is a lovely quaint station house attached to Prescot train station. We only went downstairs which was lovely and cozy and has a toilet. Just as well after two large cups of coffee. The rustic vibe is perfect and the menu looked really good. I could even select vegan options. More of that on my next visit. The staff are lovely polite and engaging. You feel more like part of the family than a customer. Tune in on my next visit. I will venture upstairs and add more photos then. And also try something from the menu. Thanks to the staff for being very professional. And thanks for the perfect coffee.

Relatively new place opened in Stockton Heath in Warrington. If your after Chinese buns, cakes,…read moretea, noodles, stir fry etc then this is the place to go. Wide selection of Chinese buns aka bao. Since opening they have started doing more savoury things like wonton soup and Singapore noodles. They have different set meals / offers. For £5.95 you get one tea - green tea, Jasmine tea etc and 3 "bao" from a choice of about 10. Good value as the buns are big in size. The buns taste just like the buns you get from Chinatown. The noodles were big too. Bigger bowl than expected. I have Singapore noodles which had a good portion of chicken in it. Looking at menu, they do lots. Also saw photos of the Chinese birthday/wedding etc cakes they do. If you have never had a Christmas "birthday" cake your missing out. Check out their web site for the menu to check out everything they do and all the deals. Also check out the gallery and the different cakes. They also have a loyalty card - get 10 stamps and get free soup, noodle or stir fry. Three of us went and we are almost already half way to a free dish. You can a stamp for liking on Facebook or following on Twitter. The place actually won a best business in Warrington award.

Its generally frequented by people over a certain age, but don't let that put you off. They do fantastic cakes, baked spuds and hot chocolates, as well as much more. The prices are quite reasonable and nothing beats sitting there with a tealight glowing upon the table and sipping a hot drink while the rain clatters onto the glass roof. Seriously, its really nice, the staff are friendly and the service is quick. The food is made fresh for you and even brought to your table. For those less able bodied, there is a lift in there if you can't easily use the stairs, however it can be out of order at times, so be aware if you're planning a visit. For the best value hot chocolates, give this place a go.

The restaurant features freshly made dishes made with homegrown seasonal produce. While visiting our family in Liverpool, we came here as a group for afternoon tea. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law had been here before, so they knew it was great and brought us back, along with my husband's grandparents. Do take note, you have to book your table in advance. We sat in one of the backrooms which was very cozy and inviting, albeit a bit noisy from a rowdy group of "ladies who lunch," but it was fine once they left. We all really appreciated that savory items were included in the the afternoon tea. The menu features a selection of sandwiches, savouries, a cup of soup, a bucket of chips, a selection of cakes and a mini trifle. Plus your choice of a pot of tea or cup of filter coffee. I was happily surprised at the wide variety of teas! There was ample to eat. My husband and I ate our entire afternoon tea, but everyone else in our group had a few sweet treats left to take home. The food was very delicious. I loved the little quiche best along with the soup served in a cute tea cup and saucer! Plus, the little basket of chips was a nice touch! Scrumptious! Also, it's just 14 pounds for Afternoon Tea which I think it a great value for such a delicious savory tea. Afterwards, my family browsed the farm store and boutique which featured a lot of cute country style home goods and seasonal produce and artisanal food items. Do go upstairs to poke around at their merchandise. It's cute. I really enjoyed this afternoon tea and I'd love to return next time we're back to visit my husband's family!
