Meadow Lea Farm Coffee Shop - This local farm added a café about six months ago I heard.

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.

As a yelper, one thing I like to do is find businesses that have disappointed me in the past, and…read moresee them finally warrant an upgrade, especially one that was previously given one star. I am delighted to confirm that this branch of Sainsbury's Cafe, located inside the Sainsbury's at Heaton Park has done just that. They have quite an interesting range of food now including paella and even a corned beef hash, as well as your standard supermarket cafe food, such as breakfast, soup and chips. The chips here are gluten free, and fried separately so that is great to see. Remember, that food here should be suitable if you are gluten free, although the book says so otherwise because they are basically saying it just to cover themselves, but if you let the staff know, they should be able to advise you on how it is cooked, such as letting you know if the chips were cooked with anything else for example. My most recent visit, saw me order a Corned beef hash, the price is reasonable considering what it would cost in a restaurant and my meal was okay, it wasn't fantastic, and although a little spicy, I did enjoy it, and I liked the addition of a fried egg for an extra 40p. I do feel presentation could be much improved, but for a supermarket cafe it is what you have to expect. The gluten free chips are also quite nice too. Hygiene standards seem to be improved, with it seeming a lot cleaner here, and a new type of "Table number" stands being used, they is also a good range of newspapers here to read while you are in a cafe, but with it being in a supermarket, I'm sure they wouldn't mind you taking a newspaper from the stand downstairs, to read with your drink / food. Overall, Sainsbury's is quite good for gluten free in the cafe, with a good selection of options, beating Tesco and Morrisons by a mile. I do feel this branch deserves 3 stars, as it is just your average supermarket cafe, with reasonable food and a reasonable menu.

Sainsbury's cafe Blackley…read more Ordering: As we come upstairs we ordered the food and the staff were really polite. Sat down: We have just ordered food and I ordered A full English breakfast. So as we are waiting for the breakfast I got some pepper. Waiting: We are waiting and my tea taste like piss. So I've been waiting for years just for a breakfast. Eating: The breakfast come with two sausages, two eggs, Two bacon, beans. It was really nice especially the beans because I put brown sauce on them to make them thicker. Rating: 3

Owd Barn - Afternoon Tea

This is a lovely teahouse. It's a unique spot as it's traditional farm shop, but it also has a…read moretearoom and country store located in a 16th century barn. 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!
