Home Sweet Home Great Northern

Ian Jones, Food and Drink Editor
Ian Jones

This venue is permanently closed. Find other nearby venues.

The sister restaurant to the popular Northern Quarter venue is a worthy addition to the Home Sweet Home family. Specialising in all-day casual dining, this Great Northern outlet is the perfect spot for a cup of tea while passing through, or everything from lunch to brunch to sweet treats, for those looking for a longer stay. The staff are cheerful, friendly and the atmosphere is second to none. Just watch out for the frighteningly aggressive pigeons in the outside area – they could give the average Blackpool seagull a run for its money.
