AS the clocks go back this weekend and children are on half term, why not treat yourself to a lazy breakfast?

Instead of serving the family at home, how about popping out for a treat and let someone else cook and wash up.

Customers have been singing the praises of local cafes, restaurants and pubs on Trip Advisor as they serve up delicious fry ups, grills, muffins and pancakes.

Cafe Bon Bon, Wheelock Lane, Middlewich

5* out of 645 reviews

"Had a couple of English breakfasts here which were lovely and non-greasy. Couldn't resist buying some of the gorgeous-looking cakes to take away with us. The 2 gents that run the place are super friendly and helpful, more than happy to give recommendations when choosing cakes. When we're back in Middlewich, we'll definitely head here again."

Cafe Bon Bon, Wheelock Lane, Middlewich

"It's only a small cafe but lovely and clean with friendly staff. We called in for breakfast which was lovely. They also serve lots of delicious looking cakes so might try one next time and other things to buy like jars of different jams and chutneys, meringue sweets that also might indulge in next time. Prices were reasonable for a small cafe so when in Middlewich again will return here."

"Started visiting around two months ago and is now our favourite place for coffee and cakes,breakfast or lunch. Extremely clean premises, beautiful food, and friendly owners who go the extra mile to ensure you have a good experience every time."

The Cosy Tea Room, Winsford

4.5* out of 21 reviews

"Popped here with my daughter for a bite to eat. The place certainly suits its name 'cosy' as that's exactly what it is - super cute. Ordered a pot of tea which was in the cutest little teapot with a china cup. We both ordered poached egg on toast followed by the yummiest cake ever - chocolate and caramel - very naughty but oh so very nice."
