Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Brockholes

"Forge Bakehouse does superb breakfasts and they are very veggie and vegan-friendly. Any number of their veggie baked egg dishes, such as huevos rancheroes or aloo sabzi, can be swapped for Burmese chickpea tofu to make them vegan. Their daily one pot lunch option is almost nearly always vegan too."

"Since it opened in 2012, Forge has established itself not only as a good place to get bread, but a destination in its own right. It now also serves up exceptional coffees and the best brunch around, as well as hosting baking classes and supper clubs."

"Freshly baked bread is one of life’s small pleasures; whether you are passionate about Panini, whacky on Wheaten or bonkers about Baguettes, there is a loaf out there for everyone!. The definition of bread is a simple one- “Food made […]"

"Continuing a theme of Coffee Spots in glorious Victorian shopping arcades, I present Pot Kettle Black (PKB), which has been gracing Manchester’s coffee scene since the start of October 2014. The Barton Arcade, home of PKB, is one of the most beautiful I’ve seen and PKB takes its lead from there, with gorgeous external features and some of the most ornate and sumptuous window art there is. Stepping inside, PKB is one of the most beautifully-appointed coffee shops I’ve ever visited."

"Pot Kettle Black, Unit 14, Barton Arcade Deansgate, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M3 2BW - Visit now. Tucked away beneath the beautiful glass roof of Burton’s Arcade is specialist coffee shop Pot Kettle Black – vigilant against over roasting, this place presents its brews in trademark red mugs, served with a glass of water and a Viennese wafer. It’s spacious, cosy, and that little bit off the beaten track."

"Pot Kettle Black, Unit 14, Barton Arcade Deansgate, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M3 2BW - Visit now. For breakfast, brunch and lunch, there are few better places than Pot Kettle Black. One of the highlights of Manchester’s recently-revitalised Barton Arcade, this bright breezy space serves up traditional daytime fare with a twist (the eggs benedict with paprika-cured pork loin is a must-try)."

"The Depot Bakery provide some of the city's finest doughnuts to various cafes and eateries but recently they relocated their operation to Kelham Island and opened up their own café too. Along with this move came a fantastic brunch menu: The pictured eggs Benedict with ham hock is a favourite and their Bloody Mary beans with eggs are not to be missed, either."

"This urban-chic bakery on Burton Road is the perfect destination to start off your mornings veggie-style; they have everything from sourdough breads to bagels, salads, eggs benedict and a whole range of cakes to get you going.92 Burton rd, Facebook: TheDepotBakery"

"This lesser-known cafe is actually ideal for students, matching coffee from the famous Sheffield supplier Pollards with a huge selection of books. If you want a hideaway to disappear for a few hours, it’s perfect. The Rude Shipyard has grown a reputation as one of Sheffield’s more intimate coffee spots; whilst they always have a tasty selection of cakes on offer too."
